About Outline Approved By Biography

The eight extraordinary channels contain some of the most powerful means to influence our fertility and our overall health. While

knowledge of these channels predates the Nei Jing, the perspective on what these channels are and what they do has evolved. While this

evolution resulted in the introduction of some useful treatment strategies, it unfortunately did not retain the most important part: a

fundamental understanding of these energetics. As a result, we are only tapping into a small portion of these channels' potential.

This seminar introduces an alternative and consistent theory of the eight extra channels and demonstrates how it can be used to achieve

extraordinary results in a wide range of fertility issues.

A. The seminar begins with a discussion of the inconsistencies and limitations of modern eight extra channel theory. It then derives

both structure and function in a way that resolves the inconsistencies presented by what we typically learn about these channels.

The derivation presented predicts the coupled pairs, but enables one to see the limitations of these combinations, and how

different combinations can be much more powerful.

B. The second part of the seminar discusses diagnostics including pulse diagnosis, abdominal palpation, tongue diagnosis, face

reading and examination of the teeth.

C. The third part of the seminar provides examples of treatment protocols for a variety of stubborn infertility conditions including:

conception facilitation, anovulation, amenorrhea, recurrent pregnancy loss, miscarriage prevention, poor ovarian quality,

advanced maternal age, aneuploidy (chromosomal abnormalities) and the treatment of accumulations and concentrations

(uterine, ovarian and breast masses)

The course presents two longer case studies to demonstrate an in-depth diagnosis, analysis and treatment management, as well as a

number of shorter case studies. The cases chosen all had relatively dramatic results and herb formulas and acupuncture point

combinations, including stimulation methods, dosages, etc. are included.

Note: This course presents both basic and advanced material. However it does NOT present the common "meridian map". Instead, the

course postulates that the meridian map is somewhat like patent medicine. Just as the herbal formula si wu tang gives one strategy to

approach tonifying blood, the common meridian map is only one idea of how to approach a particular aspect of the eight extra channels.

This course is not about throwing away that map, but rather realizing its limitations as only one strategy, and offers a more effective

approach to using the eight extra channels to treat infertility.

Outline:

1. Understanding conception: Discussion of conception in terms of Jing Qi and Shen and applying a protocol for facilitating

conception via the entrance and assimilation of the Hun and Po.

2. Exploring the concept of Qi and why the eight extra channels are not meridians.

3. Exploring the genesis of the eight extra channels from both structural and functional perspectives.

4. Case study on recurrent pregnancy loss.

5. Exploring blood physiology and misconceptions regarding Chong mai

6. Exploring the eight extra channels from an energetic perspective and exploring how the theory is applied in multiple situations.

7. Derivation of the eight extra channel coupled points through a 5 element mapping.

8. Exploring diagnostic evaluation by looking, including bone structure, teeth and tongue diagnosis.

9. Exploring diagnostic evaluation by listening and examining how personality traits can be diagnostic of eight extra channel

pathology.

10. Exploring diagnostic evaluation of the pulses with a discussion of both the standard Wang Shu He and Li Shi Zhen pulse

configurations, as well as several alternate pulse configurations.

11. Case study: Infertility in a patient with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and MTHFR polymorphism.

12. Exploring palpation including a discussion of the triple heater, back shu points, source points, mu points, etc. and how to evaluate

the dynamics of jing through palpation.

13. Exploring needle techniques used in the treatment of the eight extraordinary channels and how different techniques can activate

different aspects of the channels.

14. Case study of patient with amenorrhea and PCOS that conceived after not having had a menses in over 9 months.

15. Discussion of aging and protocol for reversing damage caused by aging.

16. Discussion and protocol for improving oocyte integrity.

17. Discussion and protocol for prevention of aneuploidy.

18. Discussion and protocol for the treatment of uterine polyps (includes case study).

19. Discussion and protocol for the treatment of ovarian cysts (includes case study).

20. Discussion and protocol for the treatment of early stage endometrial cancer (case study).

21. Discussion and protocol for the treatment of breast cysts (includes case study).

22. Discussion and protocols for the prevention of common causes of miscarriages.

23. Live demonstration of intake, treatment and needle techniques.

24. Summary of lecture.

"\; l BRIEF HISTORY

• Electric fish were used In Egypt to treat pa in in 2000-3000 BCE

• Italian physician Luigi Galvani discovered in 1780 that dead frogs' legs twitched when stimulated by electricity

• Guillaume Duchenne, a French physician, (considered the founder of neurology) expanded upon Galvani's research particularly as it relates to use of AC vs DC current In muscular contractions

• Tong Shi-chin's book "Investigation of Electroacupuncture" was published in China In 1934

•

. ADVANTAGES OF ELECTROACUPUNCTURE(EA)

• Substitutes for prolonged hand manipulation of needles

• can produce a stronger stimulation without causing as much tissue damage, as compared to manual acupuncture (MA)

• Easier to control frequency and amount of stimulus compared with MA

• Can be faster, more effective and results longer lasting when compared to manual acupuncture

NEV ADA STA TE BOARD OF ORIENT AL MEDICINE



Members of the Board of Oriental Medicine:

I am requesting approval for either 8 or 10 continuing education credits for coursework in Traditional

Chinese Feng Shui. The course was 150 hours of class time and at least another 150 hours of homework.

As you are aware, Feng Shui is one of the eight branches of Chinese Medicine. I took this Feng Shui class

to improve my understanding of the environmental aspects of Chinese Medicine and because it was a

branch I did not know much about. As the course continued, I found that not only was it increasing my

understanding of the environmental aspects, it renewed my enthusiasm and love of Chinese Medicine.

As you can see by the attached curriculum and course descriptions, it was very involved and very

intense. The classes often went over time with instructors and students staying late. The field trips

were varied with some full days at "feng shui" gardens.

I am now enrolled in the advanced certification course, which is one wkend every six weeks.

Thank you for your e:onsideration of this request.

Sincerely,

Maggie Tracey, O.M.D.

Golden Gate Feng Shui School , Traditional Chinese Feng Shui Foundation Program

certifies that

Margaret Tracey, O.M.D., Dipl O.M. has successfully completed and demonstrated necessary skills and knowledge with distinction, in our 150 hour curriculum and is hereby awarded the title

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS (ABRIDGED} History of Feng Shui Focusing on the human relationship to nature, we follow the transition of nomadic life to sedentary agricultural life at the foundation of Chinese civilization.

Principle Application Complex feng shui principles including the five elemental phases, yin-yang, sheng and sha qi, and san cai. The introduction of colors and shapes are studied as feng shui solutions and we take a journey through a room by room analysis.

Eastern Cosmology Students learn the fundamental cosmology of Chinese Science. A journey through Confucian, Daoist, and Animist world-views uncovers the universal principles of feng shui.

Western Geomancy Introduction to dowsing for detection of harmful/beneficial energies, earth acupuncture techniques, and protocols for building labyrinths and creating ley lines.

Environmental Assessment We will examine patterns in nature that create longevity; evaluate the qi of landscapes; and explore the influence of local landforms on architectural design.

Walking the Dragon Learn to sense the invisible essence within a physical environment. Train to read qi to see how landscapes impact our prosperity, power, and health. Locate dragon veins, energy vortexes, and power spots in a landscape.

Loupan Compass Read the vibrational energies that are affecting a site as well as how the orientation of a building is related to its fate.

Ming Gua and Bazhai (Directional Analysis) Students learn the ming gua and bazhai compass methods for determining auspicious directions and locations for inhabitants and structures that support optimum potential for health, relationships, sleep, and business.

Nine Star Ki Personal directionology used for travel , relocation, and revealing personality traits. Refines client recommendations based on their inner nature.

Consultation Practical: Theater Learn about the process of client consultations from start to finish, through in depth case studies illustrated with photos, floor-plans, and video.

Qigong Slow, stylized repetition of fluid movement forms involving rhythmic breathing. Daily qi exercises enhances one's ability to diagnose buildings and environments.

Food and Health The theory and practice of Chinese Daoist Physiology focuses on the spiritual and cosmic nature of the body and its patterns. We look at the respiratory, digestive, and central nervous systems as well as eating, resting, and breathing.

WORLD-RENOWNED FACULTY GGFSS has a long-standing reputation for innovative coursework, non-dogmatic teaching, and a faculty of world-renowned experts. The continuing inspiration for disseminating this knowledge is due in notable part to the comprehensive and far-reaching discourses of the late Uu Ming. Ming taught Chinese medicine and astrogeomancy for the greater part of his remarkable life.
