Description
In this presentation we will explore the origin of Life in terms of the Qi Jing Ba Mai, also called the 8 Extraordinary Vessels. They are powerful energetic fields that play a major role in our fertility. Following nearly 19 years of practice, Martine presents how she integrates the use of the Qi Jing Bai Mai into the context of her fertility-treatments. She will discuss how each of the 8 Extra’s exerts its particular influence on fertility by looking at their Opening, Closing and Pivoting movement. This approach will deepen our understanding of Eight Extraordinary vessels and their application in infertility. Participants will gain a new insight into the mechanism of complex gynaecological and fertility-issues such as ovulatory disorders, chronic pelvic inflammatory disorders, repeated miscarriage, poor egg quality, etc. Special attention will be paid to treatment options through the Extra Meridians that go beyond the usual opening points. This course will teach specific Extra Meridian-pointcombinations you can add to your practice to increase your efficacy for fertility.
