COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Back, hip, and sciatic pain are among the most common — and most stubborn — conditions in your practice. This 2-hour introductory course gives you a first look at a complete clinical system designed to change how you approach these cases for good.
You'll be introduced to Bagua Scalp Acupuncture, a rare and highly effective system now taught in English and made fully accessible to Western practitioners. In this session, you'll learn the foundational theory behind Bagua Scalp Acupuncture, how to locate the Source Point and Eight Trigram zones on the scalp, and how the trigram protocol is applied specifically for back, hip, and sciatic pain. You'll also get an overview of the 12 additional acupuncture protocols and herbal medicine formulas covered in the full course — giving you a clear picture of the complete system and what's possible when all the pieces come together.
This is your entry point into a framework that covers every major clinical approach to back pain, so no matter what walks through your door — acute strain, chronic degeneration, or nerve involvement — you'll have a protocol ready.
