Series Overview
We know that a large proportion of our patients are on pharmaceuticals or trying to avoid being on them. To be the most effective practitioner we can, we need to know about drugs, how they work, and how they affect what we do with Chinese medicine. Think of this series as pharmaceutical course "lite." We are going to talk about all of the major drug categories, get into why they are prescribed, how they work, and the dangers to be on the look out for. All of this from the perspective of a Chinese medical practitioner. So we discuss drug-herb and drug-acupuncture interactions as well as important and positive combinations. The first two courses start at the basics. In the first course, The Basics of Pharmacology and Chinese Medicine, we get into many of the basics of pharmacology including pharmacokinetics (and the ADME scheme) and pharmacodynamics. In the second course, we expand on these basics and jump deep into drug-herb interactions. After that, we explore categories of drugs. This series is all about applying what you learn to your patients. When we discuss drug-herb interactions, we not only talk about how to understand the information but also how to communicate it to our patients by introducing a practice building tool, the Drug-Herb Matrix. This is a super important course for any practitioner! This seminar is based on my book published by Blue Poppy: Integrative Pharmacology, Combining Modern Pharmacology and Integrative Medicine written with Bob Flaws.

Whitfield is very methodical with his approach to treating injuries in the field of sports medicine. I am so grateful that he is sharing his experience, knowledge and wisdom that spans over 30 years. I particularly enjoyed his consistent approach to treatment with his 4 steps, 10 techniques. He is very humble and authentic in his approach when discussing his experiences. I look forward to learning from Whitfield Reaves in person!

Whitfield Reaves is a wonderful teacher giving all relevant information, staying on topic with great clinical stories and demonstrations to illustrate his material. I love the way he integrates modern western sports medicine wisdom with TCM methods.
Erica T.
Whitfield Reeves shares many years of personal practiced wisdom and methods in the area of Acupuncture Sports Medicine. I appreciate the opportunity to learn and directly apply his focused treatments after viewing the online course options. The Acupuncture Handbook of Sports Injuries Pain is my go-to reference guide for any muscular/skeleton complaint.
Coleen F.
Whitfield Reaves courses are so practical and useful in a clinical setting. Using his methods has been very effective for me getting results with patients. Every acupuncturist should take at least a couple of his courses.

Whitfield Reeves teaches his system in exactly the way I like to learn. The images are clear, he presents the information systematically, and the needling instruction is practical and useful.
Wendy B.
I would highly recommend the Sport Webinar series to any acupuncturists, especially those working in chiropractic clinics so they can better complement their treatments and have a deeper understanding of joint pain and injuries

Whitfield Reaves always gives you that little bit of extra info in these presentations that you don't get from his book. I am thoroughly enjoying the series.

Neil Gumminick is a pleasure to listen to. He clarifies and simplifies procedures to make it easy to carry through to daily clinic practice. Not only is he so well versed in what he is teaching, his care for his patients oozes out of him. Something that we should all aspire to....I think this course is a must for all acupuncturists. He makes it so simple to follow for things that are so complex. Fantastic speaker and good for all TCM as a reminder of how to care for patients.

Neil is an effective instructor, the course material is novel and interesting. I plan on incorporating this into my practice. Recommended!
Aaron V.
I found this course very interesting. Although Im familiar with 5 element acupuncture, this course taught me that there is more to 5 element theory than you might think!

Neil is a fantastic teacher: clear, well prepared, and passionately dedicated to this system of medicine.

Janice Walton-Hadlock is an exceptional and gifted teacher making the use of this wonderful healing tool come to life and allowing one to want to embrace the whole Qi channel knowledge in one's everyday practice to enhance our patients' overall wellness. Thank you.
Bonnie D.
Dr. Janice Walton-Hadlock is a passionate teacher and a pleasure to learn from. Her teaching opens us to another level of knowledge in oriental medicine that brings a new potential to one's practice.
Christine O.
Dr. Walton-Hadlock makes good, skeptic-proof explanations of why meridian theory makes sense, and why feeling the qi, in the meridians, and not just the pulses, will guide us in making more directed treatments that can be more effective.
Tobi P.
I loved this course. I was skeptical at first as to how we can learn to feel channel qi through an online course. The instructor explained it in a very accessible way that could be easily applied even though we weren't physically in the class. She also inspired a lot of confidence by continuously stating that we all had the ability to do it, and we just needed to develop it.
Salma A.
Dr. Janice Walton-Hadlock has made discoveries that are yet to be fully appreciated and recognized in the fields of both oriental medicine and medicine of the west. Diversion of channels is so fundamental to the development of the disease.
Natalia K.
Janice continues to rock my world and change how I perceive and approach treatments. All therapists could benefit from her approaches and knowledge. I can't wait until she brings a new course!
