The Comprehensive Treatment of Allergic and Metabolic Disorders with Herbs & Essential Oils
with Peter Holmes L.Ac., M.H., A.H.G.

Highlights

Allergic disorders account for a large and growing portion of today's health concerns. They consist of immediate and delayed hypersensitivies involving dysfunctional immunity, and include allergic sinusitis, otitis, food allergies, atopic asthma and dermatitis. This seminar will provide the comprehensive and essential tools neccessary for evaluating and treating these difficult conditions in Chinese medicine.

We will include the three root-level treatments of spreading Liver Qi, transforming Spleen damp and tonifying Kidney essence. Treatment will include acupuncture, new herb formulas from Peter's own practice and specific antiallergic/antihistamine Chine-se and Western herbs. Particular essential oils too have shown good results in treating allergy and inflammation, as well as relieving associated symptoms.

Second day (Sunday):

On Sunday we will focus on increasingly common endocrine and metabolic disorders, including hypertension, hypoglycemia, abdominal obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and polycystic ovarian syndrome. These conditions today are known to result from metabolic syndrome (syndrome X); they involve insulin resistance as key feature and have wide pathological effects.

We will describe the symptomatology, pathophysiology and treatment of these modern disorders using acupuncture, herbs and essential oils. We will focus in particular on the disruption of Spleen functions and the generation of pathogens in analyzing the etiology and presentation of these disorders. Participants will learn the essential tools neccessary for differentiating and treating these conditions in Chinese medicine. Chinese and Western herbs/oils and formulas will be discussed in full detail that can be used to treat both the root and the branch of each condition.
