About This Seminar
Tung's Extraordinary Acupuncture System (TEAS) was handed down within the Tung family until Master Tung Ching-Chang took on disciples and published his book. It includes several hundred unique points and is known for using fewer needles. Dr Michael Chung shaped his teaching of the system into four workshops following the levels of Human, Earth, Heaven and the Dao — this was the first, the Human Level.
Across four days of lectures, hands-on practice and live demonstrations, Dr Chung showed each point in person, covering location, needling depth and angle, retention time and point combinations, and closed with treatment protocols for gynaecology and fertility. The workshop was presented in English.
