(practical workshops)

In the West, we often see people who have harboured complaints for longer than is appropriate. I believe that by using some oil and massage techniques, rather than, or in addition to heavy needle stimulation techniques we may be able to improve our clinical outcomes. One area that is likely to be enhanced is that of the male sexual/prostate function.

In my decades of using prostatic and lymphatic drainage techniques in addition to moxa and needling, I have been able to improve male fertility, sexual enjoyment and provide urinary relief. As the rates of prostatic cancer climb as a man ages, and as it is the third most mortal cancer after skin and colorectal, I believe that using preventative methods rather than hoping that the one in nine statistics do not apply, is warranted.

In clinic, using our knowledge of meridian flow and specific points, we may diagnose, monitor during a treatment, and actually adjust the prostatic/cardiac and lymphatic blockages that may be in front of us. Whilst a man may be consulting us for a wide variety of other issues, it takes little time to test him, and correct his body more towards more healthy parameters, if required.

Partners of women can be easily taught this manoeuvre, along with the use of simple moxa techniques, to enliven the area prior to regular at-home drainage/ massage.

Both of these workshops enable you to see the person in front of you, rather than a theoretical framework which has boxes you must fit them into before you select a treatment protocol . . ..and set of points that MAY alter what was happening IF they fitted into it neatly – (I personally have yet to find a person who does . . .. )
