Applied Acupuncture Techniques for Common Conditions

About this course

Painful conditions like frozen shoulder, low back pain, TMJ discomfort, carpal tunnel symptoms, and plantar fasciitis can interfere with movement, work, sleep, and quality of life. By the end of this course, learners will understand how acupuncture strategies may be applied to common musculoskeletal conditions, with attention to assessment, point selection, treatment planning, and functional outcomes. Building on Level 1, Dr. Constance Bradley presents condition-specific protocols for nine common cases, helping learners connect traditional acupuncture theory with modern clinical reasoning. The course focuses on practical application for pain relief, improved mobility, and better patient care. Through detailed demonstrations and clinical discussion, learners explore point combinations, needling depth considerations, treatment sequencing, adjunct methods, and case-based decision-making. Licensed acupuncture and healthcare professionals will gain practical tools for refining treatment plans, while general learners will gain a clearer understanding of how acupuncture is used for common pain and movement-related conditions. This course offers a structured, condition-based approach to applying acupuncture knowledge with greater confidence, safety, and clinical purpose.
