What to expect at a Study Session

Palpation, as any other skill and handcraft (and eventually art) takes time to settle. After completing the basic training, and once we've been practicing for a while, it's useful to refresh the full repertoire, so we have Study Sessions in different locations.

The specific topics vary according to the particular groups, and always stay within the framework of the fundamental courses from the first 3 modules.

Topics we revisit:
Shape of Qi - Manual Thermal Evaluation - Yang Rhythm - Local Listening - Shape of Qi needling - Global Listening - Channel Listening Selection - Channel Listening Evaluation - Fluid body and Fluid Tide - Use of Extraordinary Vessels at the service of palpation.
