discover the magic of acupressure
The Practitioner Level is a 6.5 day training that teaches you what acupressure is, how to apply touch therapy to ease tension, balance energy and clear beliefs. You will develop a greater understanding of the metaphysical connection between the meridian pathways, the body, the corresponding emotions, and the psycho-spiritual connection of each pressure point.
This training is more than a practitioner training, it is an invitation to heal, grow and transform on a cellular level.
Practitioner Level is recognized by
The International Institute of Complimentary Therapies (IICT), and insurance.
