An Evidence-based Approach to Traditional Chinese Medicine
Chair: Dr. K. Trinh
Emphasis will be placed on evidence based reviews of protocols used in clinical studies. The safety issues and adverse effects will be discussed based on the current scientific literature. Locations of a set of points will be demonstrated through class illustrations and small group practice sessions. Students will have ample opportunities to practice safe needling techniques in the small group practice sessions. This course is required as a pre-requisite to all the courses in Level 1 & 2.
Note: To have the maximum credit of 20 hours for this course, the registrants will be required to sign out at 9 p.m. on Saturday. If the registrants complete all the practical session requirements by 6:00 p.m., the minimum requirement for challenging the Level 1 exam is still met but the maximum credit of 20 hours for this course will not be given.
