On this website you will be able to find information on my educational background, as well as clinical and academic work. If you are a current or prospective patient, you will be happy to browse the Patient Info page, while current students or researchers of Chinese medicine will be excited to learn about the upcoming educational and research projects on the Continuing Education page.

Also worth mentioning is the Canonical Chinese Medicine training that started in April 2007 and is now being offered in multiple locations all over the world. In Europe the training is finishing its 2nd year soon in the UK. Another group recently started in Portland, OR, USA and yet another group will be starting in 09/2008 in the San Francisco Bay area. Furthermore, in 2009, the newly enhanced and expanded Canonical curriculum will kick-off its debut in Frankfurt, Germany. More info can be found here.

Also since 2007 I am offering diagnostic medicine support for any Chinese medicine practitioner who has as if it were "run in to a dead end" with a challenging patient. You can request to schedule an appointment for a thorough Chinese medicine diagnostic assessment and receive a written 'second opinion' on possible herbal and acupuncture avenues to pursue, along with treatment plan and prognosis. Man colleagues have already succesfully used this service and made breakthroughs in some of their stubborn cases!Click here for more info.

The Forum page has since almost three years been a one-of-a-kind venue for scholarly exchange amongst peers both domestic and internationally. Please do not hesitate to sign-up and start posting. It is the place to see and be seen!

Whatever brings you here, I sincerely hope you enjoy the visit!

Thank you,

"The Chinese Medical Canons' View on Immune Response and Its Regulation"

Recently submitted article introducing the subject of my 2012 Pacific Symposium seminar in San Diego., CA, on the diagnosis and treatment of auto-immune diseases with canonical formulas of the Shanghan Lun and Jingui Yaolue.

The article is also available in print from in the Oriental Medicine gazette published by the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine.

As Aconite is gaining popularity amongst Chinese medicine practiotioners for its clinical efficacy and applicability in modern healthcare, it is also receiving more scrutiny from regulatory and other faction in society. To address the issues of Aconite's toxicity and to re-affirm the safety and efficacy when traditional processing is used and the right ethno-botanical species chosen, Dr. Heiner Fruehauf has authored the following article.

Also attached is a previous article of his on Jiangyou Aconite and the Fire Spirit School in general. 

"Aspects of the Cultural Personality of Chinese Medicine and the Imperative Focus on the Classics"

https://www.pacificcollege.edu/acupuncture-massage-publications/om-newspaper/116-summer-2011/1007-aspects-of-the-cultural-personality-of-chinese-medicine-and-the-imperative-focus-on-the-classics.html

This article was submitted to the 2011 Pacific Symposium in San Diego, CA. It attempts at unequivocally pointing out that studying the classics is not actually a choice rather than a necessity when being a Chinese medicine practitioner; and that not studying the classics sisgnifies the end of an individual practitioner's chances for self-improvement.

Attached is the English version of the interview conducted with Dr. Versluys by the chief-editor of the newly founded journal Medicine Chinesa Brasil, based in Sao Paolo, Brasil. We would like to thank the editorial staff for their invitation and wish them lots of success with the new journal.
