The Thirteen Ghost Points - an Alchemical Chinese Medicine approach
From: July 10, 2024
Alchemical Chinese Medicine protocols prioritize unlocking personal potential over merely addressing illness. Sun SiMiao’s Thirteen Ghost Points help resolve past burdens, each addressing distinct themes to restore authenticity. While well-known among acupuncturists, practical application remains less explored. This webinar will introduce the transformative potential of Ghost Points, offering insights into their utilization and featuring a guided meditation to enhance understanding.
The Use of the Five Elements in Alchemical Chinese Medicine
From: July 9, 2025
The Five Elements are intrinsic in all Chinese Medicine, but the Alchemical Chinese Medicine moves beyond simply diagnosing the Constitutional Factor (CF) for the purposes of treatment to utlizing the Five Elements for facilitating greater authenticity of the person with the goal of transcending the limitations of your Energetic type. When we learn how to “Connect Our Circle,” it’s the work of becoming a Sage – a realized human being who knows themself and learns to become MORE than themself.
Integrating Individual Alchemical Ghost Points in Your Daily Practice
From: June 11, 2024
This course is designed to help practitioners integrate Alchemical Ghost Points into their daily practice. While the Thirteen Ghost Points are a complex and fascinating topic, this class will focus on practical applications and provide simple guidance for utilizing these points in day-to-day treatments.
Participants will learn the key differences between using a regular acupuncture point and using it as a Ghost Point. For instance, they will explore the unique properties and benefits of treating a point like LI 11 as a Ghost Point, and why this approach can be effective. Throughout the course, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how Alchemical Ghost Points can enhance their treatments and improve patient outcomes. They will also learn practical tips for incorporating these points into their existing practice, from identifying the right points to selecting appropriate needling protocols.
Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or just starting out, this course is an excellent opportunity to expand your knowledge and enhance your practice with the powerful techniques of Alchemical Ghost Points.
