Our Chinese herbal medicine course is designed to make the study of Chinese herbal medicine truly interesting and engaging. It is an integrated course where, from the outset, you will learn critical herbs, simple formulae containing them, and the patterns they address. By studying the herbs, recipes and conditions together, you learn to “speak the language” and make clinical sense right from the start. The course also integrates the study of plant science and herbal research into your study of herbs and formulae, giving these subjects a clear clinical relevance. Online classes are interleaved with work on real case studies, and discussions on various aspects of herbal medicine. This infuses the theory with real-life clinical application, illustrating the practical use of herbs and the integration of herbal treatment with acupuncture practice.
