Basic Acupuncture Treatment for Acute Pain: A Step-by-Step TCM Guide
Looking for an effective acupuncture treatment for acute pain? This was my very first YouTube LIVE class, where I shared how Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners can approach acute pain using acupuncture principles. While the tech setup still needed a little work (as most first lives do!), it was amazing to connect with so many TCM rock stars around the world. Acupuncture truly has no boundaries — and this class was proof!
I loved all the questions, the energy, and how many of you commented that you found value in the class. Helping practitioners feel more confident treating acute pain with acupuncture is one of my favorite things to teach!
If you missed the LIVE session, you can watch the replay below.
👉 Start at 8:15 minutes for the class content — unless you’d like to hear my singing five minutes in 😄
Let me know what you think and keep rocking it with TCM! 💪
