Seasonal Infectious Diseases, Your Immune System, and Herbal Medicine

As we enter the season of colds, influenza, and other respiratory infections, it is a good time to revisit the wisdom of Eastern and Western herbal medicine and the important role of nutrition, lifestyle, and traditional healing practices in supporting immune health.

In today's Building a Healing Community workshop, we will explore traditional Asian and Western herbal approaches to seasonal illness, along with hands-on instruction in clinical cupping, gua sha, and pressure point therapy.

Our goal is to share practical knowledge and healing skills that can help us better care for ourselves, our families, our patients, and our communities, especially during challenging times.

I invite you to read my booklet, Your Immune System and Seasonal Infectious Disease, available free online:

Building a Healing Community: Learning Practical Skills for Difficult Times

We live in a time of growing uncertainty and change. More than ever, we need practical knowledge and skills that can help us care for ourselves, our families, our patients, and our communities.

Our Building a Healing Community workshops are part of our ongoing effort to bring people together through education, cooperation, compassion, and the healing arts. We believe that preparing for difficult times involves more than stocking up on food, water, and emergency supplies. It also means developing the knowledge, confidence, and practical skills to help one another.

Our workshops in traditional Asian medicine are also a multicultural learning experience, introducing participants to healing traditions, philosophies, and therapeutic practices developed over thousands of years in different cultures. They offer an opportunity to appreciate the wisdom of other peoples while learning practical, hands-on techniques that can be incorporated into modern health care and everyday life.

This Monday, November 9, we are offering three workshops in one!

Clinical Cupping, Myofascial Scraping, and Pressure Point Therapy

Participants will explore three traditional therapeutic approaches, learn about their history and practical applications, and practice techniques that can help address pain, muscular tension, restricted movement, and stress.

What a wonderful day of learning, sharing, and hands-on experience at yesterday's FastTrack Shoulder Lab Master Class!

We had an exceptional group of talented, enthusiastic, and dedicated massage therapists and health care professionals who brought wonderful energy, thoughtful questions, and a genuine passion for learning to the workshop.

Throughout the day, we explored shoulder injuries, joint dysfunction, rehabilitation techniques, and practical hands-on approaches to restoring mobility and function. There was plenty of learning, practicing, sharing of clinical experiences, and laughter along the way!

One of the greatest pleasures of teaching is spending time with therapists who truly love their work and are committed to improving their skills and helping their patients.

My sincere thanks to everyone who attended and helped make this such a successful and enjoyable workshop!

We have more exciting FastTrack workshops coming up, and we would love to have you join us!
