Acupuncture for Anxiety: An Effective Chinese Medicine Approach to Healing the Mind

COURSE TYPE:
Distance Learning CEU Video (Online)

COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Anxiety is one of the most common concerns seen in clinical practice—and also one of the most nuanced to treat effectively. This in-depth course offers practitioners a rich, clinically practical Chinese Medicine approach to understanding anxiety far beyond surface symptoms, giving you tools you can use immediately in practice.

Rooted in the classical concept of Emotions as Movements of Qì (七情 Qī Qíng), this training reveals how anxiety arises from distinct patterns of imbalance, including Yin deficiency, Heat, constraint, and complex mixed presentations. You’ll learn why these patterns develop, how to clearly differentiate them, and how to avoid one-size-fits-all treatments that limit results.

The course delivers exceptionally detailed clinical guidance, with acupuncture as the core modality. Expect thorough point prescriptions, clear explanations of the underlying theory, needling strategies, and pattern-specific protocols you can confidently apply. Real-world case examples demonstrate exactly how to select points and adapt treatments based on presentation.

Beyond acupuncture, the class is packed with practical strategies to extend treatment effects outside the clinic. You’ll learn targeted dietary recommendations (foods by Zang-Fu system, temperature considerations for anxiety, and herbal tea guidance), self-exercise and Qigong practices, and precise Tui Na recommendations—including where to massage, how, and when.

By the end of the course, you’ll walk away with a deep, integrated understanding of anxiety through the lens of Chinese Medicine and a comprehensive toolkit of actionable strategies, empowering you to treat anxiety with greater clarity, confidence, and lasting clinical impact.

Upon completion of this course, practitioners will:

• Gain a clear, structured framework for understanding anxiety across multiple TCM patterns
• Move beyond symptom management to treat the root mechanisms driving anxiety
• Learn detailed acupuncture point strategies with the theory behind why they work
• Expand your clinical toolbox with dietary, Qigong, Tui Na, and herbal tea guidance
• Walk away with ready-to-use protocols and case-based insights you can apply immediately
