Webinar Overview
Purpose:
This presentation demonstrates how Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM) can effectively treat hyperthyroidism while navigating patient resistance to Western medicine. Through a specific case study, it showcases how understanding disease dynamics through the Six Conformations framework from the Shang Han Za Bing Lun, we can provide a deep and long-lasting treatment.
Key Points:
- Practitioner Confidence: In the clinic, practitioners must feel confident and secure in their treatment strategies. Attempting to fully meet a patient’s request to avoid Western medicine can sometimes jeopardize practitioner safety or liability. By prioritizing the practitioner’s well-being, effective care for the patient is also ensured.
- Seeing the disease dynamics: The presentation explains the dynamics of Tai Yang and Shao Yin conformations pathology in this case of hyperthyroidism, demonstrating how this understanding surpasses standard Zang-Fu diagnosis in addressing root causes. Gui Zhi Jia Long Gu Mu Li Tang was selected for its ability to treat these conformations.
- Monitoring treatment outcome: Clinical success was measured through both symptomatic improvement and Western markers (T3, T4, TSH), demonstrating how Classical Chinese Medicine effectively works alongside Western medicine.
