WHO AM I

I failed miserably the first two years in acupuncture. It was spectacular! Plastic surgeon, detox center, MD, allergist clinic, nurse practitioner, bio

identical, spa, wellness center, therapy combo, solo practice, house calls, group, volunteer, working hourly, ER hospital, herbal house call van deal, old folks home, 4 overseas volunteer trips

In my clinic, I see 100-110 people a week on my own, each patient individually, no group treatments, no assembly line acupuncture. I see 25-30 people a day, and I work 9-6/7pm, Monday thru Friday. My wife runs the front office, I do all the herbs, treating, insurance, cleaning, laundry, make herbs, ordering of supplies and materials. We have only been open since 2009 March. We were at 76 people first week. I DIDNT KNOW ANYBODY IN MY AREA! It was a small town, 12,000 people mostly offisherman/farmers/blue collar workers, no acupuncture ever in the town.

Why am I here talking? Because I'm a novice. Because I'm new. Because I dont know that much. If I can do this? YOU ALL CAN!!! IM NOT SPECIAL!

WHO AM I Acupuncture

Dr. Tan, Master Tung- ALL ACUPUNCTURE WORKS! These are the styles that work best for me

Herbs/Pulse diagnosisDr. Jimmy Chang

Practice managementsolo practice, no contracts, no community style, I treat everybody, bill insurance/cash, 2-4 people per hour, sell Evergreen herbs

Experience 62,000 treatments in American and Overseas. This medicine

requires to learn we must practice.

How do I practice?

I have been taught Tung Acupuncture by Wei Chi Young and I have been taught the Balance Method acupuncture by Dr. Richard Tan. To them I owe everything I have learned.

Im also grateful for Dr. Mahers help and expertise. THANK YOU!

I had the chance to practice all these points overseas, doing volunteer work, treating 100 patients a day. Volunteering is important. It allows you to treat for free thus it allows you to treat without fear. It allows you to experiment without worrying about booking the next appt. You can test, try, retry, rethink, and all the time youre helping others. People come for months, you can see the evolution of your treatmentswhat is working? What is not working? Why not? Why is it?

Treat as much as you can, you will get better with experience

Who AM I

Biggest reason people dont succeed is because they dont expose themselves to the existing information - Jim Rhome

I'm just Brad. I have no magic needle, no golden touch, I have no privileged information nor powerful potions. If I can do it? Anybody can! Step by step. Needle by needle, patient by patient, we learn. All this information is available to everybody. There are no secrets!

You just NEED TO PRACTICE and CRITCALLY think

MIRROR

IMAGE

RELATIONSHIPS

WHICH ONES ARE MOST CONSISTENT Which ones do I bet the success of my practice on?

MIRROR IMAGE



BEFORE WE START-

QUESTION Does TCM use imaging and mirroring?

LU9, LI4, GB41, GB39, ST36, SP6, SP4, BL40, PC6, LV3? Just to name a few.

On Saturday we will focus on Images, mirrors and the Tung theory behind it.

MIRROR IMAGE

BEFORE WE START-

QUESTION Do these points work because the image and theory

tells us so? Or do they just work and we have used theory and images/mirrors etc to help us understand a very complex and mysterious healing mechanism?

Important distinction to be made here

MIRROR IMAGE

MIRROR IMAGE

MIRRORDefinitionyou that same piece of anatomy somewhere else. Its a homologous relationships. My upper arm looks like my upper leg. My fingers look my toes.

IMAGEDefinitionWe need to make something look like something else My hand lookslike my head. My wrist joint, is kinda like my neck.

MIRROR IMAGEMirror Limbs, full image, , images- and reversed

Full torso on full image, Full torso on half image , 1 for 1, 1 for , 1 for and reversed

12 segments and reversed

3 jiaos and reversed

Image the face, front for back, top for bottom other images

Tissue relationships, bone-bone, tendon-tendon, vessel-vessel. Still an image

Homologous relationships, SUPER IMPORTANT

MIRROR IMAGE

So any spot can be an image, mirror, reversed, or of something to treat anything?

NOT REALLY

All these images? All these mirrors? All these channels to treat other channels? They all work?

NOT REALLY, I mean they do, but we want the BEST channel, the most consistent! Best therapeutic result!

This is a seminar about taking a mediocre needle, or mediocre image and creating a miraculous healing needle.

This is what our book is about, Master Tung imaging and mirroring for clinical success.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didnt do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
