Ten Thousand Things: The Etymology, Poetry, and Deep Meaning of Acupuncture Point Names
Ten Thousand Things is an exploration of the Chinese
character names of acupuncture points for licensed
acupuncturists. In the class, we will investigate Daoist
philosophy, poetry, etymology, meditation, and needling
to strengthen our ability to use the point names in our
acupuncture practices. We will explore ways to
communicate the deep meaning of the points, in order to
enhance healing in our clients, as we cover specific points
along the 12 main meridians. This class will engage the
senses, intellect, and emotional intelligence to understand
the ancient characters and connect those meanings to
contemporary practice.
The class will be taught by Mark A. Fortney L. Ac. He began studying Chinese language
and culture over 30 years ago and has lived in China and Taiwan. He has been
practicing acupuncture in Asheville, NC for the last 9 years while teaching at Daoist
Traditions College of Chinese Medicine. He brings over 20 years of teaching experience
and a passion for Chinese history to this class.
