Balance System Acupuncture Learning Lab
July 15/24

Contrasting and Comparing Zangfu and Channel Theory Continued:
Bladder + Kidney

There is still time to sign up for this month’s TAB Learning Lab! 

Join Suzanne and Adam on July 15, 2024 at 1:00 PM Pacific Time as we continue our Channel vs. Zangfu Learning Lab series.

New to BSA and struggling to shift your brain from zangfu to channel-based acupuncture mode? Experienced BSA practitioner but need to refine your channel knowledge? Do you want further clarification on BSA channel theory vs zangfu function? If so, this is the learning lab for you!

For the second in the Shaoyin-Taiyang channel/organ pairing series, we will continue in Chinese clock order with Foot Shaoyin Kidney and Foot Taiyang Bladder. 

In this learning lab we will: 

  • Analyze each channel’s pathway, characteristics and function
  • Compare and contrast the channel vs. zangfu functions of KI and BL
  • Review where and why we find KI and BL in BSA treatment strategies

Put your zangfu thinking cap on (temporarily!) and join us to refine your understanding of channel vs. zangfu knowledge and improve your BSA channel diagnosis skills.

Who should join? BSA students and practitioners interested in diving deeper into channel theory, holography and classical Chinese medicine.

PREREQUISITE: A minimum of BSA Levels 1 and 2 (Balance System Acupuncture (BSA) Foundations – Level 1: Single Systems + Level 2: Multiple System balancing) taken through Tan Academy of Balance (in person or webinars), or an equivalent course through another provider.

Learning Labs are recorded and available to view in the Tan Balance Hub Members Area. To catch up on the channel vs. zangfu Learning Lab series, watch the recordings of our past labs. Not yet on the Hub? Sign up as a premium member for access!
