Translating Qi Languages to Patients

How do you respond when a patient asks you “How does acupuncture work?”, “What do the needles do?”. How do you describe stagnation? Qi, yin, yang, damp, wind, dryness? Phiona and Clare explore this topic in this week’s episode of Heavenly Qi podcast.

Palpation in the Treatment Room

“Lived experience is palpable”. This statement plays itself out for us within the clinical setting every day and we discuss this in depth in this episode with our guest Dr Peter Ferrigno. We explore the patient-practitioner interaction, and how that occurs through palpation as well as through feeling without touching.

Having a Clean Agenda

What does it mean to have a clean agenda? Why do we consider it to be an important foundation for clinical interaction? In this first episode you will meet podcast hosts Dr Clare Pyers and Dr Phiona Gitsham, and learn more about them through their discussion on energetic interactions in the clinic.
