Shen-Hammer Pulse Diagnosis - with Claus Sorensen [3 day CPD]

🖐️ Want to improve your pulse-taking skills in 2025? Want to deepen your understanding of the information you can gain from the different pulse positions? Don't miss out on this intimate workshop in October for only 14 practitioners - book your place now!
🖐️ In this 3-day hands on workshop, you will learn how to palpate the pulse, how to recognise the most common pulse qualities, and assess the different depths on the pulse. This is a powerful pulse diagnostic method to enhance your clinical results.
🖐️ In a small group of up to 14 participants, you will get the direct feedback that is essential for the learning process with pulse diagnosis. There will be a combination of theory, practical work, demonstrations and discussions.
🖐️ In the Shen-Hammer pulse tradition Dr Shen formulated a Systems Model, about Liu Jing, the Six Conformations. We can follow the 6 sweeping motions of Liu Jing on the pulse.
🖐️ This tradition starts with palpating what we call the entire pulse, so the entire artery (from cun to chi) is palpated with 3 fingers used as one unit.
🖐️ The aim of this course is to get hands on experience (or improve your current skills) with common pulse qualities and start to be able to follow the movement of the life force through our body.
🖐️ There are now 2 FREE FREE BONUS CALLS online, before the in-person course in October!

Claus will be hosting 2 zoom calls with all those booked on to the 3 day course, on:
Wednesday 17th September, 3pm - 4:30pm BST
Wednesday 24th September, 3pm - 4:30pm BST
These are free of charge, to cover some of the theory side beforehand, so that when you are in-person at CICM it can truly be 3 days of hands on experience!
These will be recorded and available to watch before the in-person course in October, so don't worry if you cannot make the September zoom calls live!
