Inleiding/Introduction
Workshop by David Hartmann
When treating patients with mental and emotional disorders, it is vital to have multiple treatment strategies. Whether that is special Chinese medicine techniques, proven acupuncture point combinations, a combination of the two, and/or other strategies, the more options you have the better.
Always remember that we treat people, and not diseases, and that everyone is unique. This creates additional challenges when it comes to enhancing a person’s emotional state. Therefore, it is vital that we have multiple treatment strategies to aid our patient’s mental health.
Where one patient with depression will respond well to a Zàng Fǔ diagnosis and treatment, there will be plenty of others that do not. Knowing multiple treatment options allows you to pivot when you run into that scenario. Further, if your patient has quite complex emotional trauma, you are likely to need a range of strategies to aid them.
