Join Aeon Education with Miles Coleman, The Black Belt Herbalist, to learn TCM Pain Protocols and associated herbs.
Chronic pain isn’t just a symptom - it’s an epidemic! Nearly 28 million UK adults (43.5%) live with pain lasting more than three months. In those over 75, that number climbs to 62%.
In this seminar you will learn:
- The Root Causes of Pain in TCM - Learn how concepts like Qi stagnation, Blood stasis, Cold invasion, and Kidney deficiency explain different pain patterns — and how these differ from Western “symptom-based” approaches.
- Pattern Differentiation for Pain -Discover how to distinguish between types of pain (sharp vs. dull, fixed vs. wandering, hot vs. cold) and connect them to appropriate herbal strategies.
- Herbal Formula Building -See how single herbs (like Corydalis or Chuan Xiong) combine into synergistic formulas — and why certain pairings are far more effective than isolated herbs.
- Western vs. Eastern Approaches - Compare common Western pain herbs with TCM herbs — and explore how blending traditions can expand your practice.
- When to Use External Therapies - Insights into topical herbs, liniments, poultices, and oils for trauma, injury, or localized pain.
- Case Studies from Clinical Practice - Real-world examples of how TCM herbal strategies have helped clients with arthritis, migraines, menstrual pain, and musculoskeletal injuries.
- Practical Integration for Herbalists - How to bring TCM’s framework into your practice, even if you’re not a formally trained TCM practitioner — while staying true to your own herbal background.
Ask as many questions as you want! Miles likes an interactive session so get ready with your questions for an inclusive discussion!
This talk is open to practitioners, students or health enthusiasts looking to better understand herbs.
