In this class, we discuss wound healing, wound color and consistency, local inflammation, chronic wounds (e.g. diabetic and vascular ulcers) identification of infection and antibiotic resistance. Sam Coffman shares his own herbal protocols (internal and topical), case studies and experience in the field and clinic in working with both chronic (non-healing) and acute wounds and infections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eRelated product: \u003c\/span\u003eThe lecture notes for this recording are available here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/2020-Southwest-Conference-on-Botanical-Medicine-Conference-Book-Download-PDF\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e2020 Southwest Conference on Botanical Medicine: Conference Book Download (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/raJjtRzDGrI?si=ljRVJaeWi9tR4xzV\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Botanical Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Video","offer_id":50603419795672,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio","offer_id":50602283794648,"sku":"20SW24","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/3519\/6376\/files\/8_1.png?v=1762003994"},{"product_id":"the-evolution-of-wound-care-botanical-medicine-based-considerations-and-strategies","title":"24SW17 - The Evolution of Wound Care: Botanical Medicine-Based Considerations and Strategies","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpeaker: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Botanical-Medicine-Speakers\/Proefrock-Kenneth\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKenneth Proefrock, NMD\u003c\/a\u003e As modern herbalists we recognize that the intelligent use of botanical medicines can serve to minimize the usage of antibiotics that cause critical antibiotic resistance. Since ancient times, botanical medicines have been used to effectively treat cutaneous wounds and reduce the onset of infections. Prior to antibiotic medications, a relatively simple wound on a hand or a foot could take a person's life if not attended to properly. The widespread use of antibiotics throughout the second half of the 1900's led to an overconfidence in the effectiveness of these agents and a notable complacency in pursuing the high levels of wound care that were necessary prior to antibiotic chemotherapy. There are a remarkable number of wound-healing botanicals that have been widely used in the Northern Hemisphere, including Achillea millefolium, Aloe vera, Althea officinalis, Calendula officinalis, Matricaria chamomilla, Curcuma longa, Eucalyptus, Jojoba, plantain, pine, green tea, pomegranate, and Inula. This discussion covers the topics of antibiotic resistance, with an overview of the antibiotics involved in resistance development and how to use botanical medicine correlates, added to effective wound care and hygiene considerations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eRelated product: \u003c\/span\u003eThe PowerPoint for this recording is available\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehere: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/2024-Southwest-Conference-on-Botanical-Medicine-Conference-Book-Download-PDF\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e2024 Southwest Conference on Botanical Medicine: Conference Book Download (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Botanical Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Video","offer_id":50603438178520,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio","offer_id":50602261381336,"sku":"24SW17","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/3519\/6376\/files\/8.png?v=1761793460"},{"product_id":"advanced-wound-and-infection-management-concepts-demonstration","title":"25ME08 - Advanced Wound and Infection Management Concepts (Demonstration)","description":"\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eSpeaker: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Botanical-Medicine-Speakers\/Coffman-Sam\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSam Coffman, L.Ac, W-EMT, RH(AHG)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 18.4px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 15.333332px;\"\u003eThis workshop delves into advanced wound and infection management strategies, combining conventional practices with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles for a comprehensive, integrative approach. Participants will gain practical knowledge on assessing and treating acute and chronic wounds, as well as managing infections using both botanical and clinical methods. Advanced medicine-making techniques, including the preparation of freeze-dried fluid extracts and alcohol honeys, will be covered to enhance wound healing and support immune function. The workshop will emphasize hands-on applications, focusing on both the theoretical foundation and practical aspects of incorporating herbal therapies into clinical practice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 1;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 15.333332px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 1;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 1;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eRelated product:\u003c\/span\u003e The PowerPoint for this recording is available here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hnrvev-zu.myshopify.com\/collections\/digital-books\/products\/25men-2025-medicines-from-the-earth-herb-symposium-conference-book-download-pdf\"\u003e2025 Medicines from the Earth Herb: Conference Book Download (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore information on our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanicalmedicine.org\/continuing-education\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.botanicalmedicine.org\/continuing-education\u0026amp;source=gmail\u0026amp;ust=1618066863934000\u0026amp;usg=AFQjCNFeCzbEOTGcsENvqCsya-xpRbBHBg\" style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eContinuing Education Program\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Botanical Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Video","offer_id":50603414225112,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio","offer_id":50602255810776,"sku":"25ME08","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/3519\/6376\/files\/8_1.png?v=1762003994"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.botanicalmedicine.org\/collections\/wounds.oembed","provider":"Botanical Medicine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
