Timeless Wisdom for Pregnancy Care: Zhang Zhong-Jing’s Classic Formulas
Zhang Zhong-Jing’s Key Concepts for Treating Women in Pregnancy with Classic Formulas
Almost 2000 years ago, Zhang Zhong-Jing devoted three chapters to the treatment of women in the Jin Gui Yao Lue. One of those chapters focused on the treatment of women during pregnancy. A careful reading of the lines and formulas in this chapter reveals that he had a profound knowledge of the physiology of pregnancy and where things can go sideways.
In this lecture, Sharon Weizenbaum will discuss these foundational concepts that have been most useful for her in her work with pregnant women. Students will gain an understanding of habitual miscarriage, hyperemesis in pregnancy, and preeclampsia with case examples from both Sharon’s practice and from doctors through history. Sharon will explain why Zhang Zhong-Jing’s formulas are so relevant for practitioners today.
