Transform from Uncertain to Systematic: Master Reproducible Treatments for Shoulder Pain, Nerve Entrapments, Migraines, and Head & Neck Conditions in Just 4 Days

This Module focuses on upper extremity, head and neck neuro presentations - including shoulder conditions, carpal tunnel and nerve entrapments, headaches, migraines, and cervical radiculopathy.

Neuro-Meridian Acupuncture Intensive

Module 1: Upper Extremity, Head & Neck

You're Not Alone in This Frustration.

You know the classical points. You've studied the meridians. You understand TCM theory.

But when patients with frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel, cervical radiculopathy, or chronic migraines sit in your treatment room, you're not always confident you'll get the results they desperately need.

Sound familiar?

• You get inconsistent results - some treatments work brilliantly, others fall flat, and you're not sure why
• You feel uncertain about needle depth, angle, and achieving proper De Qi around sensitive anatomical structures
• You avoid certain complex cases because you lack confidence in your ability to help
• Your patients with nerve pain and upper extremity conditions aren't responding as well as you'd hoped
• You want to increase your fees and attract more referrals, but you need more consistent results first

Here's the truth: Most practitioners don't lack skill - they lack a system.

Traditional Acupuncture training focuses on point location and theory but rarely teaches the precise neuroanatomical understanding and systematic needling techniques that create reproducible results.

That's exactly why Dr Poney Chiang created the Neuro-Meridian Acupuncture Intensive.

How Classical Points Connect to Modern Neuroanatomy

The ancient masters weren't working with mystery - they were targeting specific neurological structures with remarkable precision.

This is just a glimpse. You'll learn the complete neuroanatomical map for upper extremity and head/neck treatments.

Secure your spot now and be part of an elite group of practitioners who are shaping the future of Tung Acupuncture.

Meet Dr Poney Chiang: The Practitioner Who Solved the Consistency Problem

After years of clinical frustration, cadaver dissection, and teaching thousands of practitioners, Dr Poney discovered something remarkable:

The ancient masters were targeting specific nerves, nerve branches, and neurovascular structures all along. The classical texts weren't mystical - they were brilliantly precise neuroanatomical maps.

"I remember the frustration of inconsistent results early in my practice," Dr Poney shares. "I knew acupuncture should work better, but I couldn't figure out why some treatments were brilliant and others fell flat. That frustration drove me to cadaver labs, to research, to obsessively mapping the neuroanatomical basis of every classical point."

"What I discovered changed everything: The ancient masters were neuroanatomical geniuses. They just described their knowledge in different language. Once I understood this connection, my clinical results transformed - and I knew I had to share this with other practitioners struggling like I once did."

Now recognized as "the nerve expert" in the Acupuncture teaching community, Dr Poney has distilled this knowledge into a systematic, hands-on training that transforms uncertain practitioners into confident, precision experts - regardless of your current experience level.

What truly sets Dr Poney apart isn't just his impressive credentials (PhD from University of Toronto, adjunct professor at York University, professor at American Neuro-Acupuncture Institute) - it's his gift for making complex neuroanatomy accessible to Acupuncturists.

Many practitioners consistently share: "You made neuroanatomy finally make sense".

His teaching style is patient, systematic, and deeply supportive.

Whether you're a nervous new graduate or a seasoned practitioner seeking to break through a plateau, Dr Poney meets you where you are and guides you to mastery through hands-on practice with immediate, personalised feedback.

Secure your spot now and be part of an elite group of practitioners who are shaping the future of Tung Acupuncture.

Bridge Ancient Wisdom with Modern Science

Finally understand WHY classical points work by seeing their neuroanatomical basis. This validates and deepens your TCM foundation - it doesn't replace it.

Develop Real-Time Problem-Solving Skills

Gain the ability to troubleshoot and adjust your treatment on the spot when you're not getting the intended response. No more feeling stuck.

Help Patients Avoid Unnecessary Surgery

Give patients with carpal tunnel, frozen shoulder, and nerve compression a non-surgical alternative that actually works. Transform lives.

Compress 20 Years of Clinical Trial-and-Error into 4 Intensive Days

Instead of spending decades developing clinical intuition through hit-or-miss experience, gain a systematic framework for immediate application.

Bridging Old and New: Problem-Solving Techniques Unveiled

Traditional vs. Modern

Dr Poney compares ancient Acupuncture techniques to contemporary understanding through neuroanatomy.

Problem-Solving and Decision Making

The emphasis of the course, is not just to provide protocols, but also to teach practitioners how to problem solve and make decisions tailored to each patient's needs.

Introducing

Neuro-Meridian Acupuncture Intensive

Module 1: Upper Extremity, Head & Neck

Course Overview

Course Overview

Here's what makes this training different from theoretical courses you may have taken:

Reading about neuroanatomy doesn't build clinical confidence. Watching videos doesn't develop muscle memory. Only supervised, hands-on practice with immediate feedback creates the systematic skills you need.

That's why this intensive is modeled after Dr Chiang's Professional Practice Certificate program at York University - combining lectures, live demonstrations, and extensive hands-on practice where Dr Poney personally checks each student's technique.

You'll practice every single point under expert guidance, learning what proper nerve stimulation feels like, how to adjust if you're not achieving the right response, and how to troubleshoot in real-time.

By the end of 4 days, these techniques will be integrated into your muscle memory - ready for immediate clinical application.

Classics and Nerves: A New Paradigm in Acupuncture

Clarification on Nerve Stimulation

This video is an in-depth explanation of what stimulating a nerve means in the context of acupuncture. Dr Poney emphasises that his approach aims to create a specific sensation (referred to as 'DeQi Sensation') via nerve stimulation without causing damage.

Classics Complement Acupuncture

Dr Poney discusses his approach based on classics and aligns closely with the peripheral nervous system. Hi argues that this doesn't negate traditional acupuncture methods but complements them.

What You'll Be Able to Do After This Training

Specific clinical capabilities you'll gain:

1. Confidently Treat Complex Upper Extremity Conditions

Systematically address frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injuries, tennis elbow, and carpal tunnel syndrome with reproducible results. Know exactly which nerve branches to target and how to achieve proper stimulation.

2. Master Precision Needling Around Sensitive Structures

Eliminate fear of needling near major vessels and sensitive anatomy. Understand the 3D neuroanatomy so thoroughly that you can needle with confidence and safety.

3. Achieve Consistent Results with Headaches and Migraines

Target specific nerve branches in the head and neck to effectively treat various headache types. Finally understand why some treatments work and others don't.

4. Troubleshoot Treatments in Real-Time

5. Explain Treatments in Both Eastern and Western Terms

Communicate with patients, physicians, and other healthcare providers using both TCM theory and neuroanatomical language. Build credibility and generate medical referrals.

6. Integrate Seamlessly with Your Current Practice Style
