Programme Highlights:

SOLID FOUNDATIONS

Chinese medicine is a path for life, but you need to discern the underlying principle to get on the right track. The foundational theory you learn in this programme stems from the classics, yet is accessible, pragmatic and relevant to modern day practice. These foundations are truly a game changer for your development, and is the main "secret" to successful herbal application.

PRACTICAL LEARNING

The programme is grounded in practical assignments to ensure you apply your learning from early on in the training. You get feedback in group reviews, this way you can learn from each other's cases. During the course of the programme we review around 50-60 clinical cases covering the diagnosis, treatment strategy, herbal prescriptions, and possible scenarios in great detail.

OUTSTANDING SUPPORT

Regular interactions with your teacher enable you to learn to the best of your ability. Even though it is a virtual training, there is plenty of opportunities for questions and discussions: during the scheduled live classes, in the ongoing group forum, or in informal Q&A meet-ups. When it comes to support, your teacher is appreciated for going the extra mile to help you take the most out of your learning experience.

Our Participants Say:

Strong Foundations & Great Support


I greatly appreciated Marina’s Chinese herbal medicine certification programme, both from a practical and a theoretical perspective. The content is clearly developed to strengthen the student’s grasp on the foundations of classical Chinese medicine. During the live classes and going through cases deepened my understanding of the six conformations, the assessment and diagnosis of patients in a way that is logical and comprehensive. In addition, Marina puts great emphasis on going through questions and unclear areas in a very thorough way. In short, this programme exceeded my expectations.

“I can highly recommend Marina's Chinese Herbal Medicine course. The circular physiology can be applied to all aspects of life and it has given me a profound understanding of physiology, pathology, diagnosis and treatment methods with Chinese Herbs.  Marina's teaching is outstanding.  She shares a deep knowledge of the heart of Chinese Medicine in a warm, elegant and easy to understand way.”

So Much More than a Herbal Medicine Course


“I am so grateful for this course coming into my life.   During my career as an acupuncturist I always thought something was missing and a few years ago began my search for a herbal medicine course that would fit into my life and work.  Although this is an online course the live sessions along with Marina supporting us every step of the way, and replying very promptly to our queries, made it as close to an in person course as I could have wished for.  


It was so much more than a herbal medicine course; learning about the circular physiology of life and deepening my understanding of yin and yang has brought purpose back into my life, a greater respect for the Classical Chinese medicine theory, and reminder of the importance of continually working towards my own self development and well being.  Marina has the great gift of being able to take this very complex system of medicine and passing on the knowledge in such an elegant, practical, clear and precise way.


As for the herbs themselves, I am delighted that we” are using the whole herb, offering the full sensory experience which allows me to feel closer to the herbs, the medicine, and nature.  I am so grateful Marina has put this wonderful course together and look forward to the continuous professional development offered by the Academy of Holistic Healing Arts.”
