A Palpatory Approach to the Eight Extraordinary Vessels

A number of modern Japanese masters have developed insightful strategies for diagnosing. Notably Yoshio Manaka, MD and Kazuto Miyawaki diagnosed and treated patients with unique insights of the 8 Extraordinary Vessels. Both systems involve palpating the abdomen for unique patterns of tension and discomfort.

In this 2-day seminar Bob Quinn introduces an integrated approach to the use of these two systems. This integrated approach uses polarity agents and moxibustion, but can be used with regular needling techniques as well.
