Basics of Zhu's Scalp Acupuncture — Bali
A 3-day intensive scalp Acupuncture training uniting classical Chinese medicine with modern neuroscience, taught by direct disciples of Professor Ming Qing Zhu, integrating needle technique, intention and spirit (Shen).
About This Seminar
ZSA is a complete and separate system of Acupuncture functioning as a fusion of classical Chinese medicine and modern neuroscience. Founded on core TCM principles — meridian theory, Zang-Fu organ systems, visceral manifestation theory, Yin-Yang and Qi-blood balance — it integrates Western medical sciences including physiology, pathology, anatomy, cranial bone systems and neurohumoral regulation.
ZSA delivers results across a broad range of clinical applications: neurology, pain, internal medicine, paediatrics, gynaecology, mental health and complex cases — working through the unity of meridians, spirit and intention.
