LIVE EVENT - Treating Knee Injury and Pain
April 15, 2023 - 12pm PDT, 3pm EDT
Sometimes local & adjacent points are just not precise enough for good clinical results with the knee pain patient. In this course you will learn five different protocols for knee pain and dysfunction, each with differing but precise point selection.
Course Overview
This is a Live Webinar event that will be held on April 15, 2023 - 12pm PDT, 3pm EDT.
Treating Knee Injuries and Pain is designed for the orthopedic and sports acupuncturist. This course emphasizes diagnosis and assessment, with all treatment plans and choice of points based upon anatomical factors. Included are trigger points, motor points, and treating the synovial joint itself. Easy-to-understand treatment plans are presented, resulting in increased clinical effectiveness.
The following structures are covered in this three-hour course:
(1) The patello-femoral joint.
Highlights: Xiyan into the sub patellar space.
(2) The medial compartment of the knee.
Highlights: Threading the joint line.
(3) The ilio-tibial band.
Highlights: Threading the ilio-tibial tract at GB 33.
(4) The pes anserine.
Highlights: The region of Spleen 9.
(5) The patellar tendon.
Highlights: threading the tendon and Xiyan
Whitfield has given instruction on treating the knee in many of his live seminars and online webinars. This course, while it has been taught before, has some new material and additional protocols to consider in this common clinical condition.
The recordings will be made available for you to review after the event!
