Five Element Acupressure Level 1

This foundation course is primarily designed for bodyworkers who wish to integrate Acupressure into their existing practice and for students not yet qualified. Those without a bodywork background are welcome to join the course with some home study of anatomy, for which I can supply materials.This is a rich and thorough grounding in Five Element Acupressure. The course content includes the following:-

  • History and philosophy of Chinese Medicine
  • Tao, Yin and Yang, Qi, Five Elements
  • Twelve Meridians, Central Channel
  • Basic and extended head, neck and shoulder release
  • Lower back and pelvic release patterns
  • 51 acupressure points, locations and uses
  • Treatment patterns for specific conditions
  • First Aid, Symptomatic and Diagnostic Acupressure
  • Finding the predominant Element
  • Basic Five Element Diagnosis

This is a dynamic, exciting and practical introduction to Five Element Acupressure. The skills learned can immediately be applied both in clinical practice and with friends and family. The class offers plenty of opportunity for supervised, hands on practice.
