4. What will you learn during this time?
Hello and Welcome!
I am happy to see that you chose to join the Chinese Herbal medicine training.
This course was made with love to the fascinating world of Chinese herbal medicine from
Hangzhou, China.
A little story:
During my internship in the Chinese pharmacy at the Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Chinese
medicine (浙江省中医院) in Hangzhou (China), I took pictures of all the herbs I studied
during that time. Most of them are presented to you in this gallery. It is my wish to share this
great experience with you and to guide you into the world of Chinese herbal medicine.
Especially in teaching you some basic herbal names in Chinese as you find in the 2nd part of
this course.
I do believe every practitioner should get known to some basic knowledge of medical
mandarin, simply because we can learn so much about it!
I hope you enjoy this online course!
