Intro to Chronic Pain: Integrative Acupuncture Care by Philip Tan

Great webinar with Philip Tan!!

In the 1 hour webinar, Philip went over how amazing CV12 is and the powerful Liver meridian.

What's the first thing you think of when someone says CV12? Stomach issues right?? CV12 is a great point to tonify post-natal qi so that our essence won't get drained so quickly. Well, did you know it is THE point for treating the spine?!? Kiiko Matsumoto and other Japanese acupuncturists frequently use CV12 for spine issues! And the whole spine - cervical, thoracic, & lumbar!

And why CV12? It's the starting point of the meridian system. The first meridian we learn is Lung and where does the Lung meridian begin? Around CV12! Cool huh?

Philip also went over how wonderful and versatile the Liver meridian is because it can treat so many things. I believe the exact words were "Liver is a player" because it can go with other meridians lol. Plus, the Liver meridan is Philip's favorite to treat neck pain and migraines. (Image wise, LR 4 gets the neck!). He says if you follow Dr. Richard Tan, you will also know why the Liver is so great!

And just a quick migraine rx to leave you guys - use LR 2, 3, and proximal LR 3 to treat migraine on the shaoyang side of the headache. You can also use LR 4 too since it gets the neck.

For the full hour of this great intro (and even a quick demo of how to find the points I just listed above), watch the recording.. it's great!
