Thai Traditional Medicine
In the summer and winter months we meet weekly to learn about traditional medicine from South & Southeast Asia. Traditional Thai medicine and other Buddhist medicine traditions are discussed, alongside herbal formulas, texts, and ethics. Talks are open and beneficial to anyone wishing to expand their knowledge around these teachings.

Practical Formulas in Traditional Thai Medicine
Over 11 weeks this talk will serve as a collection, review and revisal of some of common formulas used. We will begin with a look at herbal compress formulas and continue from there.
This talk is an excellent way for beginners to become familiar with common formulas used in Thai Medicine and strongly recommended for experienced practitioners to review and update their collection of formulas.
Students are encouraged to submit any formulas they have studied and currently use to help create the most up to date collection. Formulas can be submitted here.
These talks are recommended for those studying and practicing Thai Traditional medicine, with a foundation in Buddhadhamma.
