The Pathophysiology of the San Jiao, Shao Yang and Ministerial Fire Disease in the Shang Han Za Bing Lun

ICEAM Brisbane 23 Victoria St., Clayfield, Queensland, Australia

(this course is a Webinar and will be conducted online) As the pathway through which ministerial fire and fluids circulate throughout the body the san jiao is the essential link between all aspects of function in human physiology, and as such it is involved to varying degrees in most pathologies one will encounter in clinic. This course involves an in-depth exploration of the physiology, pathology and treatment of the san jiao, the shao yang conformation, and ministerial fire pathologies, enabling one to better understand and treat pathologies of this vital aspect of human physiology. An understanding of san jiao physiology and the treatment of shao yang disease is especially important in addressing patients with chronic diseases, long term viral or bacterial conditions, patients who seem to need warming treatments but don’t respond positively to warm herbs, & those patients where one can’t seem to clear the excess to progress to a stage where you can effectively treat their deficiencies.

New Orleans – Tian-Lineage Shanghan Lun Pulse Diagnosis

ICEAM New Orleans Audubon Nature Institute, 6500 Magazine St, New Orleans, LA, United States

The Treatise on Cold Damage shanghan lun is the oldest surviving clinical handbook in the history of Chinese medicine. Written by Eastern Han dynasty (circa 200 CE) imperial envoy Zhang Zhongjing, it is an integral part of his collective writings once labeled the Treatise on Cold Damage and Complex Diseases shanghan zabing lun. But the contents of the Shanghan Lun as we know it in current day is far from complete. The present versions studied in Chinese medical schools as well as in the West, do not include the original first three chapters of Rules for Pulse Differentiation bianmai fa, Rules on Pulse Assessment pingmai fa and Cold Damage Outline shanghan li. Regardless whatever motivation was behind the historical deletions of these passages, of the aforementioned chapters, the chapters on pulse instructions are crucial for anyone desiring to fully grasp Zhang Zhongjing’s clinical instructions. Especially since the pulse patterns maizheng form the core diagnostic parameters in the establishment of the formula patterns fangzheng by which the canonical clinician categorizes disease and therapy. Note regarding the Shanghan Lun and Jingui Yaolue Pulse Seminars: due to the proprietary and complex nature of these seminars, they cannot be registered for individually and can […]

Atlanta – Shanghan Lun Abdominal Diagnosis Fukushin

ICEAM Atlanta Atlanta, GA, United States

Japanese abdominal diagnosis or Fukushin is the diagnostic art developed in medieval Japan based on the canonical writings by Zhang Zhongjing. Careful inspection of the Shanghan Zabing Lun reveals countless references to abdominal conditions that could only have been diagnosed by actual palpation of the abdomen. The skill however never fully developed in China but flourished in Japan. Throughout history, two major trends and types of abdominal diagnosis developed, being the Nanjing and Shanghan Lun schools, which respectively diagnose the abdomen in service of either acupuncture or meridian treatment, and herbal treatment. Fukushin refers specifically to Shanghan Lun style of abdominal diagnosis developed by Japanese scholars during Edo period (1603-1867 CE) for the purpose of prescribing the Han dynasty formulas of Zhang Zhongjing. Venue still to be determined!

Online (US) – Shanghan Zabing Lun Formula Families

Hybrid Training Series (US) , United States

The Shanghan Zabing Lun or the Treatise on Cold Damage and Complex Diseases is considered the forefather of all formula books. The original work was lost to the tooth of time, but most of its contents are preserved in two extant works called the Treatise on Cold Damage shanghan lun and the Concise Essentials of the Golden Cabinet jingui yaolue. The first work primarily addresses externally triggered disorders while the latter work describes the pathology and treatment of complex diseases generated internally.
