Trigger Points & Jingjin (Meridian Sinews): Treatment of the Muscular System

Course overview

David Legge, an osteopath and acupuncturist who specializes in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders, shares a new way to look at the meridian sinew system which is also commonly referred to as the tendino-muscular meridians, sinew channels, and muscle meridians. This course aims is to enable the acupuncture practitioner to diagnose musculoskeletal disorders from both a Chinese medicine and an anatomical perspective and to combine these insights into an effective treatment. David will go over TCM physiology, pathology and etiology of musculoskeletal disorders, with TCM diagnosis and treatment modalities and point selections, and include an exposition of the jingjin, the muscle meridians in Chinese medicine.
