Balancing the Nervous System

Using Aroma Acupressure and Herbs

In this course, we will explore nervous system imbalances from the perspective of Chinese Medicine. In Chinese terminology, a tense nervous system is expressed as Constrained Chi; a weak one, as Deficient Chi. 

We will discuss several manifestations of Constrained Chi: shoulder/neck tension, insomnia due to racing mind, digestive tension, hypervigilance and menstrual tension. 

Likewise, we will explore a variety of manifestations of Deficient Chi: fatigue, low immunity, weak digestion, poor memory/concentration, and lack of motivation. 

To address these imbalances, we will look at the energetics of essential oils, specific acupressure points to address these imbalances, and a system called Aroma Aucpressure in which the energetic of the oil is matched to the vibration of a point for a synergistic effect on the body’s movement back to balance. Students will have the opportunity to learn Aroma Acupressure sequences for each of the nervous system imbalances listed above.

Further, we will dive into herbs, learning individual and formulated herbs for each of the nervous system imbalances.

This class will include hands-on practice time of Aroma Acupressure on both the self and a model client, each week.
