Each organ system of the body is dealt with in physiologic terms, therapeutic and treatment methods, and constitutional aspects. The specific tonic herbs for each organ system or stress type are presented and explored in depth. The Constitutional Workbook and school manuals, patient record forms, work sheets and intake forms are supplied, as well as specific reference material referred to in the lectures . There are 140 hours of lectures and 12 Lessons. Most lessons contain 6 DVDs of filmed classwork...11-12 hours of classes...along with a quiz for each lesson. The quiz is as much an indication of what’s important as it is a test, and is meant to be completed while viewing the lectures...an open DVD test. Quiz answers can be easily checked on line when you are ready.
