Do you have a limited understanding of neuro-anatomy?

Do you have a limited understanding of neuro-anatomy?

Are you struggling to understand neuro-anatomy? You're not alone. Many acupuncturists find it challenging to integrate Western and Eastern medical concepts, and current educational institutions often fall short in arming practitioners in this area.We understand that achieving results while explaining complex concepts to patients can be tricky. Perhaps you find yourself questioning:

• Do I have the latest knowledge on the neurophysiological basis of acupuncture?
• Am I needling risky anatomical structures safely and effectively?
• Where can I learn a method that integrates both Western and Eastern medical concepts, supported by research?

Imagine shifting from a symptom-based approach to a more comprehensive system-based understanding. Instead of treating patients with back pain using only local acupuncture points, you could apply your newfound knowledge of neuro-anatomy with greater precision and accuracy

By focusing on a system-based approach, you could achieve optimal therapeutic results using fewer needles. This shift in practice can lead to increased patient satisfaction, enhanced patient retention, and the ability to help more people.

Our program offers the tools you need to move beyond a "stab in the dark" or a "poke and pray" approach. It's time to enhance your skills and provide a service that reflects a deeper understanding of both the art and science of acupuncture.

Join us, and embrace a new way to approach treatment, backed by the latest research and taught by Dr Poney Chiang who is an expert at bridging the gap between Western and Eastern medicine.

Dr Poney Chiang: Pioneering the Integration of Modern Technology in Acupuncture

Dr Poney Chiang: Pioneering the Integration of Modern Technology in Acupuncture

In his years of practice and research, Dr Poney Chiang has always been an advocate for the integration of modern technology into the field of acupuncture.

His insights on the use of electricity in treatments have been pivotal in transforming the way practitioners approach their practice.

"When you work with electricity, it's actually easier to control the dosage of stimulation," Dr Poney explains, his eyes lighting up with the excitement of a discovery that has profound implications for patient care.

"And if you have more control of the dosage stimulation, you're going to have better reproducibility in terms of how many treatments you can tell your patient it'll take to get better."

"But also when you can control the dosage, when things don't work, you can go back and look at your parameters.

Can I change some frequency, can I change some intensity?

So by having this tool as an assistive, you actually have more options when you run into trouble.

The integration of electricity is not just a new tool; it's a revolution in understanding and approach. It brings a level of control and reproducibility previously unattainable, opening new doors for patient care and treatment success.

Through the Neuro-Meridian Acupuncture Intensive series, practitioners will have the opportunity to learn from Dr Poney Chiang directly, delving into his unique insights and benefiting from his vast experience. Don't miss the chance to be part of this transformative journey.

8. ENHANCED CONTROL AND REPRODUCIBILITY IN TREATMENTS:

When you work with electricity, it's actually easier to control the dosage of stimulation. And if you have more control of the dosage stimulation, you're going to have better reproducibility in terms of how many treatments you can tell your patient it'll take to get better. But also when you can control the dosage, when things don't work, you can go back and look at your parameters. Can I change some frequency, can I change some intensity? So by having this tool as an assistive, you actually have more options when you run into trouble.
