Want to learn Chinese Medicine and Herbology?

 Are you interested in learning about Chinese Medicine and Herbology?Come to Aliza's Place on Tuesday July 26 at 10:00 am when there will be an Open House/ Registration in order to hear about Aliza's beginners' course in Chinese Medicine and Herbology. The program should last for about two hours. At this time Aliza will give an introduction to the program, and (hopefully) any questions you may have will be answered. This will also be the time to officially register and to take care of your payment. 
Classes officially begin the next week on Tuesday August 2. All classes will be given on Tuesdays from 10 am until 1 pm.  
The week after this is Tisha b'av when there will be no class. If most students will be away during the rest of August, we will not resume classes until August 30. 
At the end of around 9 months of classes, you will have a strong foundation in the zhang fu system and you should be ready to start working in the clinic under Aliza's supervision. Obviously the length of study time is different for each person, and  those students who have a partial background in Chinese Medicine and Herbology have the possibility of being streamlined into the advanced practicum at an earlier time.
But however long it takes, by the end of the classes and the practicum, you will have learned 'how to put it all together.'  You will have learned how to diagnose what is going on in a client,  what strategy to use in order to fix it, and how to convey this information to the client.  You will also have learned how to assess if your herbal remedy actually worked.

A certificate will be granted based on satisfactory completion of all requirements.
If you have any questions, please reply to this email, or call 052 439 8680.
Please let us know that you will be coming to the Open House on Tuesday July 26.

Torat Eretz Yisrael-Not just A Slogan with Machon Shilo's HaRav David Bar-Hayim-Wed. Night Shiur

HaRav David Bar-Hayim is delivering a series of shiurim which are going through Masecheth Berachoth in accordance with the methodology which the Rav recommends-learning the Talmud Yerushalmi and Talmud Bavli in parallel fashion (Bar-Hayim shitta). Anyone who wishes to delve into Masecheth Berachoth and learn it in a very intellectually and spiritually satisfying fashion is urged to come!


The shiur will take place in Givat Shaul, Jerusalem at Beth Midrash Machon Shilo at Rech' Chaim Vital 11 (ground floor from side entrance)

Additional Details about the Study/Practicum in Chinese Medicine and Herbology

Because of the response to our previous email from people with different backgrounds in Chinese Medicine, we are planning on offering two different tracks of study/field work: one for advanced students who already have a solid background in Chinese medicine and herbology, and another one for beginners which will focus on teaching basic Chinese Medicine from a very practical viewpoint, the goal being to be able to independently work in this area.


Aliza is looking to train TCM (Chinese medicine) herbalists /students
to work at Aliza's Place.

Are you looking for an interesting profession? Would you like to learn more about Chinese Medicine and using herbal remedies?  Or if you already have a background in Chinese Medicine, are you looking to do your practicum in a dynamic herbal clinic where you will have real hands-on experience with clients? With diagnosis? With developing herbal remedies that really work?


You can have all of this. And most importantly, you will have access to Aliza Adar Levine, RNMH, Nurse, Midwife, TCM Herbalist, Medical Researcher, Writer and Teacher.
                                       Practicum for Advanced Students


1) There will be a few Orientation sessions of  2 - 3 hours each (to go over Aliza's Diagnostic Questionnaire, to explain certain things about how the clinic is run, to discuss how to work with clients, etc ).


2) As soon as you are ready (which could be a month or which could be as soon as two weeks; this depends on you), you will start working with Aliza at the clinic, sitting in with her for some of her appointments. This will be for 2 - 3 hours a week, and depending on your own background and knowledge, it should be very short term. Along with this, there will also be a weekly meeting of about 2 hours with Aliza to discuss issues related to the clinical work.


3)  When Aliza feels you are ready, you will start seeing clients on your own.  The actual days and times will depend on your own schedule and the schedule of the other students. Along with this clinical work, once a week there will be a meeting with Aliza for client presentation. Aliza will have total supervision of your work, and she will be in charge of making all herb formulas until she feels that you are ready to do this on your own.


4) There will be a mini-course on reading blood tests which you will want to take, since you will be required to analyze clients' blood tests and to write up reports about their results.  You will also be required to take a mini-course on tongue assessment.  (Aliza can waive the requirement to take these courses, depending on your background)  During this time you will be expected to write reports about other related subjects.


The practicum will run for a minimum of 4 months and will cost 1200 shekels a month. This includes the orientation sessions, supervision, meetings with Aliza to discuss the clients,  clinical work, and the required courses as mentioned above.  A certificate will be granted based on satisfactory completion of all requirements. Exact dates and times of all meetings and work will depend on the participants.



Towards the end of the summer, Aliza will begin giving ongoing classes for a few hours once a week where different subjects will be studied.  The first study module will be gynecology which will cover infertility, period problems, and menopause.  These classes will be optional (although recommended), and therefore are not included in the price for the practicum.


To register, please call 052 439 8680





The practicum/study course for students with little or no background will be as follows:

You will be learning with Aliza once a week for 2 - 3 hours.  At the beginning there will be a few Orientation sessions to discuss Chinese Medicine and herbolgy.  Next there will be a mini-course on reading blood tests and tongue assessment, which will enable you to start learning how to use Aliza's Diagnostic Questionnaire.  Then different subjects will be presented. The emphasis in all the studies will be: what is the problem, what can be done for it, and how to assess if the herbal remedy worked. The classes will be ongoing, and after about six - eight months (depending on your grasp of material, etc), you will be able to begin to do clinical work as described above. The first study module which will begin towards the end of the summer, will be gynecology and will cover infertility, period problems, and menopause.

This course will give you the information and hands-on experience to work in a clinic like Aliza's Place, or to begin work on your own.  It is a wonderful option to learn an interesting profession here in Israel.

To register, please call 052 439 8680
