Seminar Description:

This class will center on clinical tips from Andy's experience and that of his teachers and writings of some well-known modern practitioners. He will discuss herbs and formulas that are not commonly used but should be; uncommon uses for herbs and formulas that are commonly used and also some unique acupuncture techniques and point selections.
