Being the Practitioner - Keys to Informed & Effective Treatment
with Edward Obaidey sensei
Attendees will absorb not only treatment techniques and strategies but will also come away with methods to develop their potential.
-
We will investigate the ancient classical methods of palpation including some basic Anma techniques .
-
We will train our sensitivity to Ki and improve our ability to generate Ki at the same time.
-
Those methods help developing the sensitivities required for a more effective Root Treatment and Overall Treatment.
Through this transformational process we will become better practitioners and share improved health with our patients, family, and friends.
Classical references will include the Nan Jing ("The classic of difficulties") ,
Su Wen ("Inner classic of the Yellow Emperor") and Ling Shu ("The Spiritual Pivot").

Master Class: Pulse Diagnosis & Internal Disease Treatment
with Masakazu Ikeda sensei & interpretation by Edward Obaidey sensei
Pulse Diagnosis
The foundation of oriental physiology (the healthy state) will be illuminated by understanding the "normal" states of the pulse. Attendees will then learn what the different pulses actually represent internally, thereby understanding how to feel the pathology, symptoms and syndromes.
Mastery & Basics
Internal organ disease is discussed in the classical texts of both Acupuncture and Herbal medicine. Ikeda sensei brings together these apparently separate fields, giving us the knowledge to use classical knowledge from both to help our patients, no matter what modality we prefer to use.

Master Class - The Basic Concepts & Techniques of TJM
with Masakazu Ikeda sensei & interpretation by Edward Obaidey sensei
Mastery & Basics
Ikeda Sensei is widely recognised as the pre-eminent practitioner in Japan and a Master of both the Acupuncture and Herbal traditions.
Echoing the Classic title "Su Wen" ("Basic Questions"), his ability and art are based on a firm belief that:"Mastery consists of a thorough, advanced understanding of the basics." Mastery of the Basics (the "fundamentals") is the true bad-rock on which our medicine and treatments stand. This leads to true understanding and reveals the complexities or 'Difficult Issues' ("Nan Ching").
TJM
Ikeda sensei presents a unified theory that encompasses a wide healing spectrum.
The seemingly disparate strands of activity presented by TCM, Meridian Therapy, ToyoHari, Five Elements and herbal practitioners are all drawn together and understood as part of one unified body which Ikeda sensei has labeled TJM ("Traditional Japanese Medicine").

Finding Freedom: Freely Expressing the Principles of the Classics in Clinical Practice
with Edward Obaidey sensei
"The 'wheels' of Oriental medicine are to be found in the Classics. They are the general principles and, using them, the vehicle that we have to explore Oriental medicine. This was given to me by my teacher Masakazu Ikeda sensei. I would like to be able to pass this freedom on to you." (Edward Obaidey)
