EXPLORATIONS IN MERIDIAN THERAPY WORKSHOP
A weekend in Santa Fe with Stephen Brown
April 17 & 18, 2010
Join us in Santa Fe for a workshop with Stephen Brown. This is a rare opportunity to study Japanese Meridian Therapy in the Southwest with one of the foremost experts in the US. Meridian Therapy, the most popular approach to traditional acupuncture in Japan, focuses on regulating qi. The emphasis is on gentle palpation in diagnosis and treatment in order to obtain constant feedback on the changes in the patient's qi. This two-day workshop teaches hands-on skills for diagnosis, point location, and root treatment. Very superficial needle techniques are used for regulating qi in the meridians and balancing the Five Phases. This workshop is designed primarily for those with some familiarity with Japanese Meridian Therapy.
Contact Tracy Conrad at landotlc@aol.com for more information or to register. Enrollment is limited as this will be a hands-on class, so please reserve your space as soon as possible! The workshop will be at Puerta de La Luna, 534 Harkle Road, on April 17th and 18th, from 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. The workshop fee is $250 before January 31st, and $300 thereafter. 14 CEU's/PDA with NCCAOM.
Stephen Brown was born in Japan where he lived until the age of fourteen. In 1983 he graduated from the Japan Central Acupuncture College and became licensed as an acupuncturist and shiatsu practitioner. He attended the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing, and later studied in Tokyo with renowned teachers including Manaka Yoshio and Serizawa Katsusuke. After moving to Seattle in 1986, he started teaching shiatsu and acupuncture at the Northwest Institute of Acupuncture. Stephen is also a practitioner and teacher of traditional exercises for health including yoga, Tai Chi, Sotai, and Qigong. Being a native speaker of Japanese, Stephen has translated many texts on Asian medicine, including Shudo Denmei's Introduction to Meridian Therapy and Finding Effective Acupuncture Points. Stephen is a founding member of the North American Journal of Oriental Medicine, a journal devoted to traditional Japanese medicine, where he served as the Editor in Chief from 1994 to 1998. Currently, he is on the faculty of the Seattle Institute of Oriental Medicine, and has just returned from teaching in Australia.
