The
following are comments collected over the years that Anastacia has
offered her courses and seminars:
Anastacia White
is a highly knowledgeable, clinically astute, and gifted communicator
as well as a deeply concerned person who I have relied on in many
capacities through the past years. I have observed Anastacia as
a teacher and educator. She is well prepared, rigorous, intellectually
honest, clear, engaging and creates a supportive environment. Finally,
Anastacia is a wonderful person, full of compassion and kindness
who makes people feel taken care of and important. I highly recommend
her.
Ted Kaptchuk, OMD
I have known
Anastacia for many years and I have always been impressed by her
teaching skills in Chinese herbal medicine. She offers a unique
combination of lecturing experience, deep knowledge of Chinese medicine,
long experience in the use of patent remedies and enthusiasm which
make her lectures a great learning experience.

Anastacia White
is able to distill the essentials of TCM Herbology, diagnosis, and
use of Chinese herbal formulas into a cohesive and digestible form
that is easily put into practical use by the medical acupuncturist.
Without reservation, I recommend her course to any physician wishing
to (expand/ deepen/ fortify) an acupuncture practice with the use
of Chinese herbal formulas.
Nancy Cotter, M.D.
Practicing Chinese Herbalist and teacher, Anastacia White is a treasure of knowledge, experience, and wisdom. I recently completed her course on TCM gynecology issues, focusing on fertility enhancement. The information and insight I received in her class has lifted me to a much higher level of practice with herbal formulas increasing my effectiveness in treating these concerns. In the class, with clarity and ease, she reviews the Chinese physiology as well as western medical concepts, meridians and organs systems involved, and how to go about helping create the great and necessary changes for woman with fertility problems.
Ana imparts her knowledge concisely, yet completely I never felt overwhelmed, yet I felt like I was getting both a solid foundation as well as an advanced perspective. I highly recommend her Fertility Enhancement course because she can help us all develop our skills and bring a much needed treatment option to woman who have had disappointing experiences with western medical approaches. Ana is a pure delight as an instructor and a human being. Her classes were ultimately beneficial and wonderful.

As a physician
I am used to thinking about diagnosis in organ systems. As an acupuncturist,
I think about wellness and it's impediments in terms of the mean
energetic system and the five-element system. This course allowed
me to bring my medical and acupuncture energetic thinking to the
table and learned how to blend this with another traditional oriental
model, Eight Principles. This knowledge gives me the ability to
come up with a prescription for healing which includes the use of
Chinese herbal formulas. I highly recommend studying with Anastacia
White to expand your horizons. I value the contribution she has
made to my thinking about health and healing.

As a newly practicing acupuncturist, I found Ana's herbal seminars invaluable. There was excellent foundation material which paved the way for her concise, detailed and thorough analysis of patent herbal medicines as they apply to specific medical conditions. She was able to move from Westerm diseases and conditions to Chinese patterns with such clarity and recommend specific herbal remedies in order of their effectiveness based on her years of experience.
Pam Borland L.Ac. Dipl. Ac.
This a wonderful introduction to Chinese Herbal Medicine. Anastacia
teaches physicians conversant in acupuncture to begin responsibly
incorporating herbal formulas available from western manufacturers.
It rounds out the French Energetic approach to acupuncture that
one is exposed to at the UCLA course.

I have spent
time with Anastacia telephonically over the past couple of months,
working on reviewing and consolidating my knowledge about the use
of Chinese herbal formulas. I have spent time reviewing clinical
cases with her during this time as well. I have found this an extremely
valuable time to clarify and refine what I have learned and apply
it in the exam room to patient care. Anastacia has helped me to
tie together many loose ends of my Chinese Medicine education to
begin to "see with the Chinese doctor's eyes". I highly
recommend her telephone Chinese Herbal Medicine Course to anyone
wishing to deepen and refine their understanding and use of Chinese
Herbal Formulas in the care of patients.

In a friendly
and open way, Anastacia will teach you what you need to know to
build Chinese herbal medicine into your practice. It's overwhelming
at first, but she can shepherd you through. Using Chinese herbs
has been an extremely effective and rewarding addition to my psychiatric
practice. I use Chinese herbs more often then Western psychotropics
now. In addition, using TCM principles and concepts enriches my
acupuncture practice as well as the psychotherapy I do with my patients.
I've continued to consult w/ Anastacia after the course - it's the
closest thing to a clinical internship without leaving your busy
office. I'm indebted to her for all she has taught me and and continues
to teach me.
