| Saam acupuncture has been one of the most important
and practical methods throughout acupuncture
history in Korea and neighboring countries. Saam was
the name of a Korean Buddhist monk who launched
his acupuncture theory about 400 years ago. It is
based on the Five Element Theory which in turn
is based on the five transport acupuncture points.
The strength of Saam acupuncture is its holistic and
meridian-based approach. Attendees will be provided
a basic introduction to, and taught the principles of
prescribing Saam acupuncture. They will also learn the
clinical applications to gynecology (dysmenorrhea,
menopause), dermatology (eczema, urticaria, psoriasis,
atopy), neurology (migraine, tension headache,
tremor), and psychiatry (depression, insomnia). |
