[Guest guest]

Heiner Fruehauf

Visiting Professor at Tai Sophia Institute

February 5, 6, and 7, 2010

 

Alumni of the Tai Sophia Graduate Certificate Program in Chinese Herbs, as well

as graduates of other ACAOM approved Chinese Herb programs, are invited to

attend three days of lecture by Heiner Fruehauf.

 

Treating Chronic and Recalcitrant Diseases with Chinese Herbs:

The Sichuan Fire-School and the Vital Concept of Supporting the Yang

 

A lecture series by Heiner Fruehauf, Ph.D., L.Ac.

 

In this practically oriented lecture series, Prof. Fruehauf will share two

decades of clinical experience diagnosing and treating difficult diseases with

Chinese herbal formulas. Specifically, he will focus on the treatment of chronic

inflammatory diseases (i.e., Lyme disease), auto-immune diseases, and cancer.

His focal point will be the key concept of fuyang (supporting the yang) in the

treatment of chronic disorders, transmitted to him by master practitioners of

the so-called Fire Spirit Lineage (huoshen pai) of Chinese medicine.

 

Professor Heiner Fruehauf, Ph.D., L.Ac. (CV attached)

 

Heiner Fruehauf has researched East Asian civilizations and Chinese medicine for

30 years. After studying comparative literature, philosophy, sinology, and

Chinese medicine at universities in Germany, China, Japan, and the United

States, he received a Ph.D. from the Dept. of East Asian Languages and

Civilizations at the University of Chicago. During five years in China, he

researched Chinese medicine both within the institutionalized TCM model (Chengdu

University of TCM), as well as the traditional lineage system that continues to

function outside government schools. He founded the School of Classical Chinese

Medicine at National College of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon, where he

has taught and practiced since 1992. His interest in preserving some of the

traditional features of Chinese medicine led him to develop a database dedicated

to the archiving of classical knowledge, and an herbal patent series for chronic

and difficult diseases (Classical Pearls). A selection of his publications, as

well as archived video lectures by him and other contemporary scholar physicians

can be accessed at www.ClassicalChineseMedicine.org.
