Continuing Education

Integrating Structural Assessment and Internal Medicine Based on Applied Channel Theory

14. - 15.11.2026

This seminar will utilize extensive hands-on practice to develop skills for using channel palpation to evaluate the interplay of structure and function in East Asian medicine. The palpation of major distal and local points will be presented and practiced. Students will learn how palpation and assessment of body alignment can allow for diagnostic refinement using a six-channel qi transformation model.

About this course

This class will focus on improving clinical results in the treatment of both internal medicine and musculoskeletal complaints. In fact, the course will demonstrate that many of these complaints are very often interwoven and should be treated simultaneously.

The seminar will utilize extensive hands-on practice to develop skills for using channel palpation to evaluate the interplay of structure and function in East Asian medicine. The palpation of major distal and local points will be presented and practiced for evaluation of the feet, legs, pelvis, body trunk, thoracic/lumbar regions, ribcage, neck and head. Students will learn how palpation and assessment of body alignment can allow for diagnostic refinement using a six-channel qi transformation (六經氣化 liù jīng qì huà) model.

Dr. Robertson will draw from his clinical experience using these assessments and will describe clinical applications and needle technique. Using channel palpation techniques developed in distal channel palpation, students will expand their diagnostic skills onto the pelvis, trunk and neck.  The goal will be to integrate diagnosis of chronic musculoskeletal imbalances with internal medicine diagnosis in order to improve the treatment of both. As always, palpation will continue to be used to shape pattern-based diagnosis so that students can move beyond protocols and ‘magic points’ to a more embodied and dynamic practice style.

This two-day course will be limited to those who have taken a previous course in Applied Channel Theory taught either by Dr. Robertson or another apprentice of Dr. Wang Juyi (王居易). There will be an assumption that core concepts have been studied in order to facilitate the development of advanced palpation skills.
