Pulse Diagnosis Workshop March 2027 – Poulsbo, WA
MPD® Level 2 Left Arm Deep Dive & Real-Patient Diagnostic Masterclass

12 NCBAHM credits PENDING for attending our in-person Medical Pulse Diagnosis® workshop!
Welcome to the first-ever Level 2 Medical Pulse Diagnosis® (MPD®) Workshop—an advanced, highly specialized immersion designed exclusively for practitioners who have taken previous MPD® courses or are actively utilizing pulse diagnosis in their clinical practice.
30+ Real Live Patients Recruited for You
Most pulse workshops rely solely on feeling the pulses of fellow attendees—practitioners who often present with similar, mild, or transient symptoms. This workshop breaks the mold.
We are recruiting real, live clinical patients directly from one of the largest and busiest TCM clinics in the United States. You won’t just hear about textbook conditions; you will feel true clinical pathology on real patients presenting with both classic and highly specific pulse qualities:
- ~10 Different Left Cun Patients: Experiencing diverse Heart, Chest, and upper jiao presentations.
- ~10 Different Left Guan Patients: Showcasing distinct Liver, Gallbladder, and middle jiao dynamics.
- ~10 Different Left Chi & Proximal Patients: Demonstrating varied Kidney, Lower Jiao, and elusive short pulse qualities.
This unprecedented format gives you a clinical reference point that no textbook or peer-to-peer workshop could ever replicate.
Why Diagnosis is King: 100% Focused on Tactile Precision
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, a precise diagnosis is the absolute prerequisite for an effective treatment strategy. If your pulse diagnosis is off, even the most sophisticated acupuncture protocols and complex herbal formulas will fall short. This Level 2 workshop is built on one core premise: Mastering the diagnostic palpation itself.
- No Wasted Time on Classroom Theory: We know your time is valuable. All theoretical background materials will be emailed to you in advance. You can prepare at your own pace at home so that almost every minute of our 2 days together is spent hands-on, feeling pulses under direct supervision.
- In-Depth Left Arm Deep Dive: We will analyze the nuances of the Left Cun, Left Guan, Left Chi, and Left Proximal positions—demystifying difficult-to-detect variations, including various forms of short pulses in the left chi and proximals.
- Direct Supervision & Finger Calibration: Bob Doane (Authority on MPD®) and senior MPD® assistants will personally check your finger placement, correct common positioning mistakes, and resolve individual challenges in real time.
- Prerequisite for Level 3: This course serves as the mandatory prerequisite for our future Level 3 Expert Workshops, which will focus deeply on advanced, complex treatment strategies and custom herbal formulation.
When Was the Last Time You Calibrated Your Pulse Diagnosis?
As TCM practitioners, most of us work in isolation inside our own clinics day in and day out. Over time, without an objective reference point, finger positions can subtly shift, tactile sensations can be misattributed, and confidence in complex pulse presentations can slip.
At least once a year, every serious practitioner needs to calibrate their pulse diagnosis with master teachers and peer experts to ensure their diagnostic accuracy remains sharp, reliable, and precise.
What You Will Take Home
- Immediate Clinical Confidence: Walk back into your clinic the very next week with the unshakeable confidence to identify complex left-arm pulses, map out the correct diagnostic pattern, and execute effective treatment strategies using acupuncture and herbs.
- Essential Herbal Strategies: While the weekend focuses heavily on diagnosis, you will receive proven, basic herbal formulas tailored to the most common pulse presentations encountered during the workshop. Say goodbye to getting lost in herbal clutter—you’ll leave with clear, highly effective herbal formulas ready for instant clinical integration.
Elevate Your Practice to the Next Level
Confidence in a reliable, repeatable pulse diagnosis is an absolute game-changer. It elevates your entire standing as a TCM practitioner, removes the guesswork from your treatment plans, and allows you to treat even your most challenging cases with utmost confidence.
With its real-patient format and direct master calibration, this unique workshop is truly one of the best places in the world to take home advanced diagnostic skills.
Due to the intensive hands-on nature of this workshop and the logistics of managing over 30 live clinical patients, registration is strictly limited to maintain a high assistant-to-student ratio. Invest in yourself, reserve your place today, and prepare to embark on a clinical skill development experience like no other!
