You could tune in expecting a straightforward clinical tip and walk away having rethought how you read a patient entirely. Every quarter, Shoptalk sits with one clinical theme long enough to actually understand it, explored by six practitioners who each arrived at it by their own training, their own patients, their own hard-won skills. It's medicine the way it's actually built, not from a single m... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

056 Treating Rosacea with Chinese Medicine • Sabine Schmitz
Q: So what are the top three things that practitioners should be watching for?
Schmitz says she most often sees heat in the Liver channel in rosacea, associating it with emotional stress. She advises practitioners to assess each patient's skin appearance rather than assume the textbook Lung and Stomach heat pattern.
056 Treating Rosacea with Chinese Medicine • Sabine Schmitz
Q: So tell us a little bit about how rosacea differs from acne, and what practitioners can do to be able to make that distinction so that they know what they're seeing.
Schmitz says rosacea is usually limited to the face, often with redness across the cheeks, nose, and chin, while acne can also affect the neck and back. Blackheads and whiteheads are characteristic of acne but not rosacea.
053 Tung Acupuncture for Atopic Dermatitis • Shaun Goodman
Q: Can you walk through a case you treated recently and how you applied the combination of heart-related and skin-related points?
In a recent neck- and elbow-dominated presentation, I diagnosed the heart as involved, treated heart-related points (88 0 1 2 3) and neck skin points like Jianzhong, then added LI11 and Sima group points to support skin healing.
053 Tung Acupuncture for Atopic Dermatitis • Shaun Goodman
Q: What makes Master Dong's approach different from point-specific acupuncture?
It focuses on zones rather than single points, using multiple needles at the borders and middle of a zone to reflect surface changes and create a broader therapeutic effect.
052 Topical Steriod Withdrawal • Mazin Al-Khafaji
Q: What signs indicate progression from acute to stabilization in patients?
Response is monitored by reducing the potency of formulas over time, observing the decline of fiery symptoms, regaining skin barrier function, and addressing lingering wind/dampness and blood deficiency as the patient improves over months.
