Overview:

Shen reflects the highest aspect of yang Qi in the body; Ht-9 is the last ‘most-yang’ point on the heart meridian. This point is both a Wood and Jing-well point, which on a physical level, can, for example, be used to revive consciousness and relieve symptoms of palpitations, pain, and Heat. It is also one of strongest points reducing stagnation in the Wood phase. Furthermore, on an emotional level, Ht-9 has a very strong transforming function for many aspects of the psyche.

This webinar will present an in-depth use of Heart-9 with clinical cases. Cases demonstrating dramatic changes when using this point will be covered; conditions such as persistent migraines, depression, allergies, memory loss, etc., can all be affected when Ht-9 is applied correctly. This webinar will discuss how it is helpful to understand the whole concept and usage of ‘Jing well-point,’ as it leads to a better understanding of the relationship of the heart and Shen. This in-depth understanding will expand the learners’ clinical abilities when one is working on mind- body-spirit transformation using acupuncture. This will be a very informative webinar presenting the special use of this single, but very important, point.  

Included in this webinar, will be a special drawing demonstrating the name and action of this point  (part of the Acupuncture point illustrations are completed in collaboration with Dr. Bartosz Chmielnicki and Rani Eyal). Downloadable notes will be available with the course, and there will also be time for questions during the webinar.
