Course Overview
Please Note: This is a Reading Course.

You already know how to use pattern identification as the basis for determining treatment. But do you understand how to use pathomechanisms to analyze and explain the changes that will occur in your patients over time? Because pattern diagnosis only provides you with a snapshot of the current state of your patient's illness, your ability to predict the progression of disease depends upon your knowledge of pathomechanisms.

Part 1 of this class will give you an understanding of pathomechanisms that will allow you to better anticipate future complications and stay one step ahead of the disease that you are treating. With this knowledge you can effectively "prevent illness before it arises," the mark of the superior physician described in the Nei Jing.

Part 2 of this course will give you insight into the core gynecological disease mechanisms in Chinese medicine. Most systemic diseases affect a woman's menstruation and reproductive system whether the woman's chief complaint is gynecological or not. Understanding these important concepts will allow you to better diagnose and treat any woman no matter what her illness.

    *CEU/CPD Approvals

    Some accreditation bodies have course approval expirations. If the approval expires, you will see a notice next to the name with a date of expiration: "[Until YYYY/MM/DD]". Please factor this date into your own renewal deadline. If an approval expires, you will be able to request that it is renewed and we will submit it for you within 2 business days. Renewals normally come back to us after 30 days. If your accreditation body is not listed under the "Approved" section, you may find it under the "Pending" section. That means that it is either currently pending approval, or that it is available for you to request: "[Upon Request]". New course approvals usually come back to us after 45 days. We use an automated system within our platform that allows you to make these requests in an easy and convenient way. Just visit the course page in your Net of Knowledge account and click the "Request Approval" button at the top. Each "Course and CEUs/CPDs" purchase grants you 1 request per accreditation body. If you request a course approval and do not complete it before its new expiration date, you will need to purchase another "CEU/CPD Add-On" to make another request. If the course is ineligible for approval with an accreditation body due to their subject-matter policies, it will be listed as "[Ineligible]", and no requests will be possible for the course.
