Who
can Benefit from these Courses
Preliminary Courses
- Herb Tasting Workshop
- Creating a Balanced Herb Combination
- Basic 9-day Herb Course
These courses are suitable for students and practitioners
with a basic understanding of Chinese medicine.
For example they are suitable for:
- acupuncturist practitioners with no prior training in
Western or Chinese herbal medicine
- practitioners of Oriental herb medicine who wish to incorporate
Western herbs into their practice
- practitioners of naturopathy or Western herbal medicine
with some basic training in the theory of Chinese medicine
However, for the Basic 9-day Course, it is advisable to have
a detailed knowledge of Chinese organ syndromes.
Advanced Clinical Trainings
- Treating the side effects of Western drugs
- Chronic fatigue and Fibromyalgia
Course prerequisites
- A formal training in the theory and practice of Chinese
medicine is essential, including detailed knowledge of the
Chinese organ syndromes.
- Completion of the Basic 8- or 9-day Herb Course on Combining
Western Herbs and Chinese Medicine by Jeremy Ross is the
prerequisite for these courses.
Completion of equivalent courses on Combining Western Herbs
and Chinese Medicine by other authorities may also be acceptable
at the discretion of both Jeremy Ross and the local organizer
of the specific Advanced Clinical Training.
Note:
- The emphasis in these workshops
is on using and combining Western
herbs according to the new integrated system of Chinese
medicine, Western herbal tradition, and modern pharmacology.
- These workshops are not specifically about mixing Western
and Chinese herbs in the same combination, although Chinese
herbs appear in some of the combinations described.
