This interactive two-day class will explore the practical application of commonly used points by two senior apprentices of Dr. Wang Juyi (王居易). An understanding of the fundamentals of Applied Channel Theory and channel palpation are strongly encouraged for those considering the course.

Beijing professor Wang Juyi would often use a metaphor when talking about the nature of acupuncture points. He would say that:

‘Points are like friends we know. Some friends we might do anything with- go on a walk, go on vacation together or have over for dinner any day of the week. Other points are like friends we see rarely, but when there is an event that we know we both like, we get together. Although rarely seen, we still might have a deep relationship with these friends rooted in a very specific interest’.

This class will be an event where two old friends and fellow apprentices get together to go deeply and thoroughly into points they know well and use often.
