Jing Fang 經方 means classical formulas and is the name given to a set of herbal prescriptions that were composed, mostly from pivotal works like Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing (神農本草經) and Shang Han Za Bing Lun (傷寒雜病論), this was the medicine of imperial China from around the time of the Han dynasty, the Golden Age of Chinese Medicine. Shāng Hán Zá Bìng Lùn (傷寒雜病論) Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases, was written by Zhāng Zhòng Jǐng (張仲景) (c. 150-219), and after his death the book disappeared, later to be reconstructed and compiled into two other books: Shang han lun (傷寒論) and Jin gui yao lue fang lun (金匱要略方論). The theoretical and clinical concepts of Jing Fang are the oldest and most authoritative formulation of Chinese medicine, and have been proven highly effective in the clinical practice of internal medicine for nearly two millennia. Only by understanding this highly developed, clinical and scientific system, that is the foundation and core of Chinese herbal medicine, will you be able to understand later formulas and thus be able to use them knowingly in your clinical practice.

🌱In our Jing Fang course, we move through each clan of formulas one by one, the formulas of a clan all share specific characteristics, as well as each carrying its own unique expressions, symptoms of their formula syndrome.

Like members of a family, they share common attributes and spirit, but stand as individuals with their own temperaments and strengths.

By studying them as formula families, it becomes easier to see their similarities, their differences, their contrasts and harmonies. One family beside another reveals the nuances more clearly.

Like the ancient clans, a gathering of distinct lineages, each with its own identity, some clans ally and strengthen one another, some clash, and some must never cross paths. Some nourish and cultivate the land, while others come with force to face whatever invaders threaten the Empress ❤️‍🔥

In Chinese medicine, the tongue is an important diagnostic tool 👅. Along with the pulse and abdominal palpation, it helps confirm a fang zheng formula pattern after we explore your symptoms during consultation 🧭.

During a session, we ask about digestion, menstruation, sleep, energy levels, and other specific signs 💤⚡️. From these questions, a pattern begins to emerge, and the tongue helps us confirm it or redirect us toward a more accurate formula 🌿

Here you can see six different tongues that correspond to six classical herbs 🌱, each with symptoms that often accompany that tongue presentation. Together, they reveal the underlying pattern your body is expressing.

Many people may see Jing Fang as an add-on course. But how could the root of the tree be an add-on?
The root from which the trunk, branches, and leaves of Chinese medicine grew? 🌳

Maybe it feels “too simple”: fewer herbs, fewer formulas, especially compared TCM courses with 500+ herbs and formula to wade through.

And yes, medicinal herbs are infinite. The modern pharmacopeia alone includes around 9000 recognised herbs.

However, it’s the Han-dynasty herbs that are time-proven across 2000 years. And the herbs we truly know, as Professor Huang Huang teaches, are those whose effects have been clinically trusted for two millennia. These are the herbs we rely on most, or should.

If Jing Fang is the root of Chinese medicine, then it would make sense that it be the first thing we study: the longest-standing clinical record we have, and the most complete foundation.

Without studying Jing Fang, it will be difficult to understand the science of formulas. The first family we teach : the Gui Zhi family, reveals formula structure and the true logic of herb combinations.

Studying formulas only by pattern category limits understanding. A formula labelled “for external wind-cold” often also treats internal conditions. When formulas are divided by action alone, their full clinical reach is lost, and many never learn how to use them effectively.

Studying by formula families is the clearest, most natural, and easiest way to learn. It brings us back to the root.

If you want to understand this medicine in a deeper, more grounded way, sign up for our next course starting in 2026. We’re waiting for you to join our botanical community of healers. 🌱✨🙏

Before you join any Chinese medicine programme, Prof. Huang Huang encourages students to ask three essential questions:

1️⃣ What dynasty is this medicine from?
Across more than two thousand years, Chinese medicine evolved through distinct eras, Han, Tang, Song, and modern systems. Identifying the period your method belongs to helps you understand its underlying logic and clinical approach.

2️⃣ Within that dynasty, which school is this medicine from?
A single era contains many different schools. Knowing the school helps you understand the framework you’re about to learn, so you gain clarity, not confusion.

3️⃣ Who teaches this school, and can their lineage be traced?
Authentic transmission matters. A teacher with a clear lineage preserves the integrity and effectiveness of the method you’re studying.

These questions ensure you’re not just learning fragments, but entering a coherent, living tradition.

Our Jing Fang Classics ENG programme beginning January 2026 is grounded in:

✨ Han-dynasty classical foundations
✨ The jing fang school of classical formulas
✨ A clear and traceable lineage carried forward today by Prof. Huang Huang and his close disciple Salustino Z. Wong
✨ A supportive, international learning community

If you want to study Chinese medicine with depth, structure, and lineage, this course is for you.

💥🧧Last year, we had the incredible opportunity to travel to Nanjing for the International Jing Fang Internship!

✨Observing Prof. Huang Huang in clinic and learning from his prescription methods was an unforgettable experience.

🌎Over 30 participants joined from the Estonian, Spanish/Portuguese, French, and English JFC branches, an amazingly diverse mix of long-time students and those newly joining the Jing Fang journey, reflecting 20 years of Tino’s teaching across Europe.

🇨🇳The group was the fruit of seeds planted over two decades, with students and collaborators learning since Tino first began teaching. It was wonderful to witness those seeds blossoming into shared understanding during the seminars and clinical observational marathons with Prof. Huang Huang, all of us speaking the same language of Jing Fang 🙏🌱

🎋Our next Jing Fang course begins in 2026, make sure to sign up and start your journey so you can join us on this adventure after completing the two years! Link in bio 🌱
