|
The Conference will open with an exciting General Session – concluding
with Business Pearls Plenary Session. The featured key-note
speaker is prominent OM Master and professional colleague, Dan
Bensky, DO, addressing Standards - A double-edged source for
Chinese Medicine.
East Asian medicine has its own inherent characteristics and
forces, including pluralism, context, fluidity, and appropriateness.
These are the bases from which this medicine operates
and has grown over the millennia. In the last hundred years this
medicine has met the forces of modern society and the modern
state, and has had to deal with issues relating to standardization.
We will consider what is gained and lost in this process
and discuss some ways to move our profession and our own
practices forward. |
