Hi

I am an established acupuncturist and a (somewhat) self taught herbalist who

is interested in a correspondence course in Chinese Herbs. Does anyone have

any feedback or suggestions? I am considering Blue Poppy/Bob Flaws

certification program.

Thanks so much.

I would highly recommend the BP class. I have heard good things about

this class. Bob is an excellent teacher and the syllabus is very

thorough. I think you will find your knowledge and ability after

taking this class may actually exceed that of many people who learned

herbology in school because of Bob's rigor and becaue you will be able

to focus on this material.

Kelly,

 

In my experience, it is important to give something with Chai Hu in it

when starting tonics. It really helps the tonic circulate better,

especially in a patient like this. I would consider Ling Zhi (Reishi)

for her allergies. I would also consider Gou Qi Zi and Wu Wei Zi. You

may want to try her on Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan for a short course. It helps

with circulation in the pelvic region. I've had many women regulate

their periods with this. One woman is sure that this was the formula

that got her pregnant after trying for 5 years.

My question is about prioritizing her syndrome herbally? I started her

on a

spleen tonic to be taken with fresh grated ginger which she remembered

she

had been given before successfully. However, what about the yin def,

blood

def, and stagnation as prioroties? My other hit on formulas would be to

nourish stomach yin or something on the continuum of Si Ni San to move

stagnation
