Acute and chronic disorders of the ears, nose and throat (ENT) not only cause suffering of patients in the affected organs, but they can also directly cause breathing discomfort, pain, influence sleep quality and even daily activities. They can also lead to mental and physical tiredness and irritation.
Although in the TCM education, ENT disorders are not paid great attention, the diagnosis is clear and can be learned quickly, and the treatment with TCM often brings quick and effective results. Dr. Yang will share her knowledge and her experience with you in this 2-day seminar.
