[Guest guest]

Dear Colleagues

Another seminar

Stannard

THE POSTGRADUATE TRAINING BOARD

Continuing Professional Development Seminar Programme

Using Herbal Medicine

in

Acute Illness and First Aid

A one-day seminar

Led by Dedj Leibbrandt, MNIMH, MRCHM

The PTB is delighted to be able to host a repeat of this popular seminar in

advance of Herbal Medicine Awareness Week. It ties in with theme of this

year’s event (Herbal First Aid). If you need to brush up your knowledge prior

to Herbal Medicine Awareness Week – this is the place to do it.

Herbal training tends to focus on treating chronic illness. Most patients

encountered during training present with chronic conditions. The scope for

treating acute illness using herbal medicine is vast. Our practices are greatly

enhanced through treating patients with acute ailments and by offering herbal

first aid.

Dedj Leibbrandt has a background in nursing, then trained as a herbalist and

became a Member of the NIMH 15 years ago. She is also trained in Chinese Herbal

Medicine and has been a member of RCHM for 10 years. In conjunction with NIMH,

Dedj established a training clinic for post and undergraduate students that

focuses on acute herbal medicine and herbal first aid. This clinic runs at

various festivals /camping events during the summer.

The content of this seminar will focus on insights learned and experience gained

over the years of practising and teaching in this clinic and treating literally

thousands of patients. Dedj prides herself on focusing her teaching on sharing

clinically relevant experience. We are pleased to be able to offer this

opportunity to learn hot tips from Dedj’s experience to use in our clinics.
