For Five Element Practitioners
Five Element Clinical Consultation Days
July 14, 2024, 9 am - 5 pm — 7 PDAs (PE-AT) $225 full day / $140 half-day
The Consultation Clinics support each practitioner's development in the clinical application of Five Element Acupuncture. The emphasis is on CSOE, clinical assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning. Practitioners bring patients who are not progressing as they would expect. We interview the patient in a treatment room with 8 observers, discuss, and provide feedback. The patient is treated, and we observe the change. Follow-up treatment plans are provided to practitioners. Observers get hands-on experience with pulses, color, sound, odor, and emotion. We see 4 patients/day. Be affirmed in one's skill set and met at a new growing edge. We provide a learning environment that supports being a beginner regardless of your experience level.
LOCATION:
Crossings Healing & Wellness 8720 Georgia Ave, Silver Spring, MD 20910

If this class were church, I would go every Sunday. It is powerful to practice with others AND be reminded of other practices, stories, and possibilities. — Workshop participant Diane Juray
This class was a breath of fresh air for my spirit. It felt so good to be back in a mindful community, doing deep work in an engaging and fun way. These simple and profound practices have already started to positively influence how I show up in the treatment room and the world. I can't wait for the next one. Highly recommended! — Workshop participant Corey Timbers
