TCM Hub's revolutionary Strategic Chinese Herbology Complete Training Program with Dr. Jason Ginsberg will be available soon!
This program teaches herbs and formulas completely different than any other program in the world and is designed for maximum efficiency in learning. We designed this program for licensed practitioners with no herbal medicine training as well as those with herbal medicine training looking to refresh.
The goal is to provide thorough, efficient, safe and effective training for you to begin prescribing Chinese herbal medicine formulas with modifications or in combinations for a fraction of the cost and inconvenience of going back to school. Dr. Ginsberg is SUCH a gifted teacher and has chaired an herbal medicine department and taught herbal medicine at leading Chinese medicine institutions in the U.S. AND he has been a practicing Chinese medicine physician for almost 20 years. This means your teacher really really knows his stuff AND how it applies IN REAL LIFE. Make the commitment.
Be the best physician you can be.

Here's a snippet from the workshop I held last weekend at the Successful Practice Summit.
The difference between Burnout vs. Overwhelm and why it's important to distinguish the two.
Setting Patient Expectations: Menstrual Disorders
I'm enjoying making these little videos and I hope they are helpful to you in your clinics. Today I thought it would be fun to take a case and show how I set expectations with the patient involving 2 menstrual complaints along with several other additional complaints. To be fair, there are some things that can't be taught in school but even in our time in clinic at school, the teachers never did what I do in this video. I suspect they simply didn't have the experience and/or confidence to put themselves out there. Understand that setting expectations is not giving guarantees, it's creating confidence in you as a practitioner in the eyes of your patients. Here's another thing, it's ok to screw up and to be wrong. There's no way around that except through so get over that shit right away. Borrow from your mentors until you get the wins under your belt.

I hope this resonates with you.

Hello
I would appreciate some input in approaching this patient.
Male 58 years old, with the diagnosis of type 2 Diabetes mellitus, diagnosed 15 years ago and over the course of his condition he developed diabetic retinopathy for what he is getting local injections; also developed bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome and according to his physician due to of that, atrophy of the left thenar eminence.
His main complains when he came to our office were lack of endurance on his lower extremities, very weak knees and legs preventing him from doing much of his regular and normal activities and needing to walk with a cane; very poor balance and a marked, recalcitrant bilateral pitting edema from his ankles up to mid legs. Also, a weak lower back that feels sore and cold, sometimes liking urine and low libido, no drive at all.
During his visits he has always denied any digestive issues, but a mild constipation with most BM daily, but sometimes every other day, with no changes in the ...

Please can I have some help with this case.
Gentleman has been suffering anal pain since a haemorroidectomy 2 years ago. Pain is like a migraine (intense ache & heaviness) that is worse for passing a stool, sitting, standing, through the day.
There is also a constant feeling of heat and tenesmus (feeling of needing to pass a stool). These are not pleasant but can handle compared to the pain. He has had physiology testing which shows all functioning. Coccyx and ganglion nerve blocks had no effect.
He has had two previous heart attacks and is on medication for these. (Ace inhibitor, beta blocker, statin & aspirin)
Pulse is wiry with irregular irregular beat.
He is very cold … included hand photo. He has no spider veins in the sacral area or on the back/ BL40 area. Only around ankles .. photos included.
I have treated with acupuncture, no bleeding, with no change in 4 weeks.
Can you help with herbal suggestions?
Thanks
