Integrating Strucural Assessment and Internal Medicine using Applied Channel Theory - Jason Robertson
Wed 6 Aug 2025
Integrating Strucural Assessment and Internal Medicine using Applied Channel Theory
The seminar will utilise extensive hands-on practice to develop skills for using channel palpation to evaluate the interplay of structure and function in East Asian medicine. Major distal and local points will be presented and practiced for evaluating the feet, legs, pelvis, body trunk, thoracic/lumbar regions, ribcage, neck and head.
Students will learn how palpation and assessment of body alignment can allow for diagnostic refinement using a six-channel qi transformation (liù j?ng qì huà) model. Dr. Robertson will draw from his clinical experience using these assessments and will describe clinical applications and needle technique.
Using channel palpation techniques developed in distal channel palpation, students will expand to palpate structures and muscles affecting the hips/pelvis, ribcage, vertebral column (including the front alarm and back transport points) and cervical region. Most importantly, palpation will continue to be used to shape patternbased diagnosis so that students can move beyond protocols and ‘magic points’ to a more embodied and dynamic practice style.
