About This Course

Course Introduction

Hua Tuo's Acupuncture Tradition is taught by Instructor Huo Gaofeng. Focusing on meridian obstruction and yin-change regions, it begins with key cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral paraspinal regions, combining Hua Tuo extra points and Liangyi yin-yang needling to develop point-selection and procedural reasoning. The course emphasizes the 4321 rule: four key yin-change regions, a maximum of three Hua Tuo extra points, two yin-yang needling approaches, and one clear procedure pathway. It is intended for learners organizing experience-based needling into regional assessment, point combinations, and case review.
