Japanese Abdominal Diagnosis: Fukushin
Instructor: Kumiko Shirai
Japanese abdominal diagnosis or Fukushin is the diagnostic art developed in medieval Japan (Edo period 1603-1867 CE) based on the classical writings by Zhang Zhongjing. Careful inspection of the Shanghan Zabing Lun reveals countless references to abdominal conditions that could only have been diagnosed by actual palpation of the abdomen. The skill however never fully developed in China but flourished in Japan. Throughout history, two major schools and types of abdominal diagnosis developed; Nanjing and Shanghan Lun schools, which respectively diagnose the abdomen in service of either acupuncture or meridian treatment, and herbal treatment.

Shang Han Lun in Clinic: Didactic Course
with Nadine Zäch

This process involves gathering information through questions, observation and palpation and then processing that information in such a way that supports the articulation of a clear diagnosis.
