The Treatment of Menopausal Problems with the Women's Treasure Remedies
with Giovanni Maciocia
Original Air Date: January 17, 2012
Menopausal problems are extremely common in Western women, causing a lot of morbidity and suffering. Chinese Medicine, with both acupuncture and herbs, can provide a safe and reliable alleviation of such problems. The idea of a decline in Jing causing menopausal problems is very ancient and Chinese medicine has paid attention to this problem over centuries.
This webinar discusses the aetiology and pathology of menopausal problems in Chinese medicine.
Patterns are discussed, and their treatment with classical prescriptions, the Women's Treasure remedies, and acupuncture are also examined. The integration (if desired) of Chinese herbal medicine with estrogen therapy is also discussed.

The Psyche in Chinese Medicine: The Treatment of Depression with the Three Treasures Remedies
with Giovanni Maciocia
Original Air Date: February 24, 2011
This webinar discusses the Chinese medicine view of the psyche and the treatment of depression. This is done by first describing the nature and clinical application of the Five Spiritual Aspects, (i.e. the Hun, Po, Shen, Yi and Zhi and particularly the Shen and Hun). These five psychic aspects of the 5 Zang organs constitute the ancient Chinese view of the psyche.
The nature and functions of the Hun and its relationship with the Shen are essential to understand the pathology (and treatment) of depression with Chinese medicine.
The webinar discusses in particular the condition of depression and its treatment with acupuncture and the Three Treasures remedies.
