Channel Palpation and Point Location Workshop
This one day workshop is an opportunity for practitioners and students to hone their channel palpation techniques under the supervision of one of Dr. Wang Ju-Yi’s apprentices. We will go over each of the 6 channel-organ systems and the Du and Ren Mai and discuss the findings and how to interpret their meanings. We will also practice Dr. Wang’s point locations which allow for more effective treatments with fewer needles.
Email nyssatang@gmail.com for more information.
INSTRUCTOR: Nyssa Tang
DATE: 4/5/25, 9am-5pm (7 CEUS)
FEE: $250 for practitioners; $200 for students ($50 discount if you also sign up for the Grand Rounds course on Sunday 4/6/25)
Grand Rounds: Musculosketal conditions
Come join Nyssa Tang in her clinic for the day as she provides treatments using the Applied Channel Theory system to demonstrate the process from intake, channel examination and diagnosis to point selection and treatment. There will be time after each case to discuss how the channel findings help us understand the channel-organ physiology, point selection and point location. Included in this class is a follow-up zoom call to discuss case studies and answer your clinical questions.

Physiology Under the Fingertips
Have you been curious about Applied Channel Theory and want to learn a new skill for your diagnostic toolbox? This White Pine Circle live-online talk will be an opportunity to learn the basics of Dr. Wang Ju-Yi's channel palpation technique directly from one of his apprentices and get an introduction to what the channel findings can tell you about your patients' physiology. What you feel in the channels can often surprise you and help deepen your understanding of classical theory. There’s so much information to be gleaned from the channels and you'll be able to incorporate this technique into your current clinical strategies for more effective treatments.
Fee: $15 WPC non-members, $0 for WPC members

Applied Channel Theory Level 1: An Introduction to Channel Physiology and Palpation
Dr. Wang Ju-Yi’s Applied Channel Theory provides a framework based in classical Chinese medicine theories to help practitioners better understand the physiological mechanisms that are contributing to their patients’ health concerns. This approach gives practitioners practical skills that help us decipher patient symptoms and guide us towards clear diagnoses and treatments. This two day course will introduce students and practitioners to the foundations of channel physiology in the 6 levels and channel palpation techniques through interactive lectures and hands-on practice. It’s a great opportunity to learn a new diagnostic tool that you can bring back to your practice to help streamline your treatments. Your instructor for the weekend will be Nyssa Tang, one of Dr. Wang’s apprentices.

Grand Rounds: Digestive Conditions
Come join Nyssa Tang in her clinic for the day as she provides treatments using the Applied Channel Theory system to demonstrate the process from intake, channel examination and diagnosis to point selection and treatment. There will be time after each case to discuss how the channel findings help us understand the channel-organ physiology, point selection and point location.

Finding Balance
Colleen Ho’s ripped paper drawings evoke the rhythms found in music and nature. Using only a thumbtack, she creates precise rips on the paper surface and the tactile nature of her work draws you in close and encourages you to slow down and take it in. Her work is currently being shown at The Shirley Project Space in Brooklyn until December 8, 2024. On Novemeber 9th, Colleen will be in conversation with Nyssa Tang about the overlapping themes in her work and in Chinese medicine.
Applied Channel Theory in practice: Grand Rounds
This will be a day-long class where Nyssa Tang will demonstrate ACT treatments on 4 volunteer patients and show the process from intake, channel examination and diagnosis to treatment. There will be time after each treatment to have dialogue about how the channel findings help us understand the channel-organ physiology, point selection and point location. This will hopefully be an ongoing offering and each date will center around a particular system. For October 27th, the focus will be on treating gynecology. Class size will be limited to 10 participants.
Participants: Licensed acupuncturists (7 CEUs), priority will be given to practitioners who have the basic foundations of ACT.
Tuition: $300. Payment in full is required to save a spot in this class.
