Every course you complete earns a stamp in your ZSA Clinical Passport. How it works
Women's health and children's neurodevelopment.
The course starts from conditions you meet in clinic and builds your Zhu's Scalp Acupuncture assessment, treatment strategy and advanced application around them.
Menstrual health
Menstrual disorders, dysmenorrhoea, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Fertility, postpartum and menopause
Fertility support, postpartum recovery and menopausal symptoms.
Paediatric neurodevelopment
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and Tourette syndrome and tic disorders.
Development and learning
Developmental delay, motor development delay, and concentration and learning difficulties.
New, as a course of its own.
Parts of this course were first taught inside a wider one. In September 2019, Professor Ming Qing Zhu, the founder of Zhu's Scalp Acupuncture, taught internal medicine in Melbourne for Zhu's Scalp Acupuncture Research and Education Foundation U.S.A., and reproductive conditions, autism and ADHD were among its topics.
Today the Advanced courses are taught by Dr Ru Shan Shy and Dr Sheng Chun Chang, two of Professor Zhu's direct disciples. They have given women's health and children's neurodevelopment a course of their own.
The topics are set. The detail is coming.
Dr Shy and Dr Chang have set what Advanced 03 covers. The rest is being finalised, and each part appears on this page as it's confirmed. Register interest and you'll hear as soon as it does.

Basics of Zhu's Scalp Acupuncture. The ZSA Lineage Internship is separate, and you can take it any time after Basics.
Does it cover both women's health and children?
Yes. Women's health and paediatric neurodevelopment are the two areas of the course.
Was this taught before?
Not as its own course. Reproductive conditions, autism and ADHD were part of the 2019 internal medicine course with Professor Zhu. Dr Shy and Dr Chang have now built a course around them.
How is it taught?
Dr Shy and Dr Chang teach in Chinese with English translation throughout, as on every Zhu's Scalp Acupuncture course.
