About the Seminar

The 2 day seminar will provide all the tools for a successful treatment of orthopedic and traumatological patients with Chinese Herbs, Acupuncture and Tui Na. Dr. Karl Zippelius will further broaden your knowledge about the physiology and pathology of the locomotor sys-tem according to TCM.

The techniques learnt in this seminar will help to strengthen your overall treatment outcomes and can be applied immediately to your clinical practice.

DAY ONE: TCM TRAUMATOLOGY

Western Sports Medicine uses the simple RICE protocol (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) for treating trauma patients. Chinese Medicine treatment advocates immediate movement, acupuncture, massage therapy, and topical herbal applications instead of ice therapy.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the Pathomechanisms of the three healing stages of musculoskeletal injuries according to TCM. Instead of a general treatment proto-col, the Chinese Medicine treatment strategy is adapted to every individual case and the three healing phases.

To avoid long term post-traumatic complica-tions, This seminar highlights the importance of very early treatment of blood stasis during the acute phase of trauma and sports injuries.

Learn powerful techniques to better assess, di-agnose and treat traumalogical patients and in-jured patients with: Topical herbal treatments, Acupuncture point combinations and Tui Na hand techniques to stimulate natural healing processes.

DAY TWO: TCM ORTHOPAEDICSDr. Zippelius will augment your knowledge about the role of external pathogenic factors, organ-meridian relationship (internal external relation), yin-yang balance, Qi blocked in merid-ians, postural aspects, emotional underlay of disease and the role of daily habits.

Participants will learn to clinically examine the different functional body units and to elaborate individualized treatment strategies for the most common pathologies of the loco-motor system. An integrative treatment combines Acupuncture with internal and external application of Chi-nese herbs, specific hand techniques and physi-cal exercise.

During the seminar the following diseases will be discussed: n Acute and chronic injuries n Fibromylagian Inflammatory diseases like arthritis, periar-thritis, tendinitis, bursitis n Degenerative changes like arthrosis n Chronic pain syndromes (e.g. upper and lower spine) n Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS)
