Speaker: Dr. Ruan Jin Zhao
Date & Time: 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM, Sun.11/13/2011
NCCAOM PDA Points :3
Location: New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Mineola, NY
This lecture is focused on real cases treated by lecturer personally. The clinical information, laboratory data and herbal medicine used are true and real without any modification. The lecturer expects participants can benefit in making a clear multiple dimensional treatment plan for the newly diagnosis of breast cancer patient, can effectively use herbal medicine and acupuncture concurrently with chemotherapy, and radiation therapy to improve the clinical outcome. As well as being capable in dealing with the side effect from the rough treatment.
This will be more like a workshop hand by hand to avoid a superficial theoretical discussion. Due to chemotherapy and other medication being used intensively, Chinese herbal medicine and food supplements are limited in treating cancer patients clinically. The acupuncture treatment became the main stream therapeutic modality for cancer patients to discuss and educate our colleagues how to maximize the clinical benefit for cancer patients through acupuncture, and how to efficiently use acupuncture treatment in integrative oncology practice. For most acupuncturists, there is no problem in Acupoint selection, but the needling techniques are not used properly or not enough.
So genius classic needling manipulation will be reinforced in this lecture, because the essence of acupuncture is focused on Acupoint selection and needling technique, which generates varied physical stimulation/vibration to induce the cascade chemical reaction. Attendants will be rewarded with plentiful knowledge in Electro-therapy (micro-electricity current) and Plum blossom needling.
