Some Chinese Medicine Syndromes for the Western Herbalist

Some Chinese Medicine Syndromes for the Western Herbalist

Paul Bergner 2019

90 minutes 1.5 CEU credits

Chinese syndrome patterns, with their foreign names and therapeutic paradigm may at first seem irrelevant or difficult to apply for the Western herbalist. Yet humans possess the same basic physiology, and when things go wrong, present similar patterns wherever they may be in the world. Chinese medicine offers a language to enable the recognition and perception of patterns universally present in contemporary patients in the West, and can enable the Western herbalist to more intelligently address these imbalances with our own traditional Western methods.
