Group discussion: Clinical Questions About Sa’am Acupuncture • Toby Daly & Guests • Qi057 - a podcast by Michael Max, L.Ac

Sa’am has a good backstory. The meditative attainment of a Buddhist monk sparks a stream of acupuncture that can be taught to simple monks to help alleviate the suffering of the world.
It is a good story.
But, more importantly this is a perspective on acupuncture that gives some penetrating insight into the connections between the six levels (??) and the five phases (??). This method can help us to work with our patient’s constitutional, physiological and psycho-dynamic process all at the same time.
It is easy to use in a wide variety of settings as it primarily relies on the transport points of the arms and legs. It does not require a lot needles, and the effects of correct, or incorrect treatment are readily apparent.
In today’s group discussion a couple of practitioners who have recently begun to engage the Sa’am method bring their questions to Toby Daly.
If you have started to use this method, or mulling over in your mind how it works and how to use it, then you’ll enjoy today’s nuts-n-bolts discussion based on actually clinical cases.
