Join Michelle Gellis, LAc MAc DiplAc, on Sunday August 30, 2026, for a one-hour webinar discussing the foundations of Five Element acupuncture and how this classical approach can deepen the way practitioners observe and understand the face.
This course provides a conceptual foundation for Michelle’s comprehensive Three-Hour Five Element Acupuncture & the Face course, where participants will move from observation and diagnosis into point selection, treatment strategies, and clinical protocols for incorporating Five Element principles into facial acupuncture treatments.
This webinar will cover:
- The Five Elements—Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, and Wood—and their relationships to constitution, emotion, complexion, facial expression, and characteristic expression lines.
- The role of Shen, the Spirit of the Points, and the concept of energetic blocks that may interfere with a patient’s ability to respond fully to treatment.
