Integrative Approach, Great Results: How to Build a Strong & Successful Practice in Any Economy in Los Angeles with Robert Doane

August 28, 2010
9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. PST
Also available in Live-streaming LotusWEBINAR

Approved for 8 CEUs/PDAs each by the CA, IL, TX, FL and NCCAOM

Acupuncturists are becoming increasingly discouraged doing the business of Chinese Medicine. Almost all clinics are reporting a reduction in income and patient visits. This does not have to be the case! What most acupuncturists lack is training in a business model capable of increasing patients no matter what the economic conditions.

Upon completion of this course, practitioners will:

  • Be able to immediately increase their patient visits and their income by 30%
  • No longer have to talk patients into coming back for further treatments
  • No longer feel frustrated and exhausted at the end of the day

Robert Doane decided to bring the resources of Chinese medicine to help as many people as possible. As he pursued this goal, he learned, developed and implemented strategies and policies that made it possible not only to help many people, but also to share with other practitioners a clear and effective business model. With the largest clinic in the United States, Doane speaks from experience, and with conviction, about how you can build a strong and effective practice, starting now.

Hands-on Pulse Taking Workshop: Get Your Fingers on the Pulses in Rowland Heights, CA with Jimmy Chang

September 26th, 2010
9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. PST

Pulse diagnosis cannot be learned just by listening, you must 'get your fingers on the pulses.' And what better way to do that than through 'speed-dating pulse taking'!

Come join us in this workshop where you can learn hands-on from the Master of Pulse Diagnosis. As Master Chang takes everyone's pulses, he will explain what he is feeling, what the pulses indicate, and which formulas to use. Once he is finished, you will then have your chance to take each other's pulses and feel for the different pulses that Master Chang describes in his Pulsynergy Made Easy series.

As a bonus, Master Chang will also take you through his various diagnostic techniques, including inspection of color, feel of temperature, and blood pressure with heart rate, that he incorporates with pulse diagnosis.

*Note: To provide optimal learning conditions, the Hands-on Pulse Taking Workshops are limited to 30 people. We regret that the high cost of offering these courses prohibits us from providing gift certificates for herbal purchases; but, we trust that the high quality of the learning experience will be a reward in itself.*

*Upon completion of this course, practitioners will be able to:*

  • Feel and distinguish between different pulses and know their indications/significance
  • Know how to incorporate the various diagnostic technique with pulse diagnosis
  • Simultaneously take pulses and describe to patients what conditions they have
  • Treat fatigue, anxiety and depression with immediate results

Volunteer patients needed!! If you would like to volunteer to be a patient, or if you would like to bring your patient with a difficult case, please email a brief summary of the patient’s condition to info@elotus.org.
