 Connecticut Institute
 for
           Herbal Studies      
Inst

   8     

 

Founded in 1992, the Connecticut Institute of Herbal Studies focuses on Traditional Chinese Medicine and offers a Certified Herbology Program with a foundation in both theory and clinical diagnosis as practiced in China today. 

Traditional Chinese Medicine has been practiced for over 4000 years.  It employs a highly developed theoretical system which determines the appropriate application of herbs based on an individual's unique symptoms and not just on a named disease.  
In this way TCM treats the causes of disease and not just the disease itself. 

All natural practitioners, from massage therapists and aromatherapists to doctors and nurses can benefit from incorporating this holistic perspective of the human 
energetic systems into their modalities.

Information on our current program schedule is available by clicking on our 
Certified Herbology Program
and our new home study format.

June 10:  Chinese Herbs to Calm the Spirit

For thousands of years the Chinese have understood that you cannot separate the “Spirit or the Shen” from the body. When disharmonies of the Spirit happen, then physical signs and symptoms are exhibited. Anxiety, depression, panic attacks, insomnia or even the inability to focus can be symptoms of an “energetic” heart disturbance. The class will cover basic theory as well as herbs and formulas often used in Chinese medicine to help with the disharmonies of the “Heart”.
