Is This Webinar For You?
Zhu's Scalp Acupuncture (ZSA) is a specialised system developed by Professor Zhu Ming Qing for neurological presentations. It is rooted in Zang Fu diagnostics, the Huang Di Nei Jing, meridian and organ theory, and Yin-Yang and Five Element theory, alongside modern neuroanatomy and physiology.
In this session, Dr Ru Shan Shy and Dr Sheng Chun Chang — both direct disciples of Professor Zhu — discussed how ZSA is applied to Parkinson's and tremor presentations: the role of "Wind" and its related organs, the key scalp zones involved, and the clinical reasoning behind treatment selection.
It included case discussion supported by photos, video, and notes, and closed with a live Q&A. The webinar was conducted in Mandarin with English translation.
