From Diagnosis to Treatment: 4 Qi Imbalances + 5 Elements

JEREMY’S NEW SYSTEM

Jeremy has developed a new practical system for diagnosis and treatment that can be used in either acupuncture or herbal medicine. This new system integrates Jeremy’s concept of the 4 Qi Imbalances with the 5 Elements and the syndromes of Chinese medicine.

4 QI IMBALANCES

The 4 Qi Imbalances and their corresponding principles of treatment are:

  • Deficiency tonify
  • Excess drain
  • Stagnation move
  • Disturbance calm

SIMPLIFY COMPLEXITY AND INCREASE PRECISION

This new system has a double function:

  • Simplify complex cases
    use the 4 Qi Imbalances

    Zoom out to view the big picture, see the herb or patient in perspective, and simplify complex situations

  • Increase precision of detail
    use the 4 Qi Imbalances + 5 Elements

    Zoom in to view the parts of the picture in precise detail and to increase diagnostic precision

 

EASIER DIAGNOSIS WITH 4 QI + 5E

This book describes:

  • a system of differentiating questions based on 4QI + 5 E, to separate similar Chinese syndromes
  • Jeremy’s new consultation recording system incorporating 4QI + 5 E
  • prioritization of Chinese syndromes using a 0-3 star rating system

 

EASIER HERB COMPARISON WITH 4 QI + 5E

The 4QI + 5E system gives a whole new perspective to using herbs or acupoints.

It uses a 0-3 star rating system for each herb action, to show what makes each herb unique, for easier choice between similar herbs in the clinic.

 

SAFER AND MORE EFFECTIVE TREATMENT

Clearer understanding of the differences between herbs or acupoints, together with more accurate diagnosis, leads to greater precision of herb or point choice, and to safer and more effective treatment.

 

CASE HISTORY EXAMPLES

A wide variety of case history examples are given to show how to use the 4 QI + 5E system with acupuncture or herbs.
