Course Overview
From Wei Qi & Ying Qi to Self and None-self, and everything in between.
The immune system is the most complex in the body, and it plays a major role in prevention, recovery and disease outcome. In this course, Dr Yair Maimon uses his vast experience in treating cancer patients, especially those undergoing conventional treatments who suffer from compromised and weak immune systems, to build a comprehensive understanding of immunity in Chinese Medicine.
The immune system is multilayered; to grasp it in Chinese Medicine, we need to go to the deep foundation of it, from Wei Qi & Ying Qi to Self and None-self, and everything in between.
The different steps in our journey will cover such aspects as the physiology of the immune system in CM, the rule of Shen and trauma, inflammation & allergies and their CM treatment, Yuan Qi, Zheng Qi, Qi Production, Post and Pre-heaven Qi.
Taking this course will widen the way you observe your patients in the clinic while deepening the roots of Chinese Medicine understanding.

June 21, 2023Thank you for this enlightened and enlightening dive into the heart of the immune system. A class that not only allows you to refresh your knowledge but also to learn and deepen. I’ve grown thanks to it, many thanks Yair!
May 20, 2020Thank you very much for your deep and wide explanation of immune diseases, especially in relation to emotions which seem to be so important in becoming ill and in the process of healing.
May 16, 2020Very clear explanation. After refreshing your basic knowledge he leads you deeper into the matery. It is easy to follow and nice pictures too.
It made me realize again how much influence the emotions have on our wellbeing.
April 25, 2020It gave me a wonderful and deep insight in our own strength, our immune system, pathologies, our shen, together with what we inherited from our parents. And how the emotions play a big role. So heaven, man and earth. To look further than only the symptoms. Finding the root. It was a lot but very clear. Thank you so much.
