Shen-Hammer Pulse Diagnosis - Level B
The Shen-Hammer Pulse Diagnosis is a modern system of pulse diagnosis, integrating traditional and modern aspects. If applied correctly, it reveals a multitude of important information about the patient which in turn enhances the understanding of the pathology and thereby improves the treatment. Furthermore, this method has proven to be highly effective in truly developing and enhancing one’s palpation skills. This course (Level B) is the continuation of the introductory course to Shen-Hammer Pulse Diagnosis (Level A) and deepens the understanding of this exquisite pulse taking method.
