From Cell to Channel: Embryological Formations of the Meridian System

Course overview

his course examines the connection between embryological development and the Chinese Medicine meridian system, revealing how the natal energetic matrix forms alongside the human fetus. Practitioners will explore the origins of channels, organs, and pathways, including Fu Xi Gua in fertilization and gastrulation, and links between embryonic systems and meridians: nervous (Ren/Du), cardiovascular (Fire), respiratory (Metal), digestive (Earth/Wood), and uro-reproductive (Water). Participants will consider meridians as dynamic expressions of human development, gaining insights to refine diagnosis, channel theory, and point location with greater precision and clinical depth.
