The Curriculum
Anatomy
A hands-on approach to learning the basic structure of the human body, this class gives you the foundation of understanding the physical body.
Chinese Medical Theory I and II
With over 2500 years of clinical practice and academic study, Chinese Medicine is the oldest continuously practiced professional medical system in the world. Both the United States National Institutes of Health and the United Nations World Health Organization endorse Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. Chinese Medicine is based on the understanding that a Life Force Energy flows throughout our bodies. This energy fills the physical organs, tissues and structures of our body/mind, forming an internal network of subtle energy.
Acupressure
Students are taught how to use their fingers to press key points on the surface of the skin to stimulate the body's natural self-curative ablities. Acupressure students will learn to apply a comfortable range of pressure ranging from gentle touch to firm contact. This class provides the skills needed to offer a complete general acupressure session and prepares students to work as an acupressure practititoner.
Medical Qi Gong
Qi gong is an ancient healing art practiced for thousands of years in the East to promote health, vitality and resistance to disease. Scientists have verified many of Medical Qigong's health benefits, as well as the ability of Qigong masters to transmit healing energies from their hands. In China and the west, many people are turning to Qigong to aid in the treatment and prevention of chronic disease and to maintain vibrant good health. This class provides a sound foundation for the use of medical Qigong.
Thai Massage
Performed through your clothes, traditional Thai massage leaves you in a state of sublime relaxation. Smoothness, rhythm and flow are three words that come to mind in Thai massage. Nothing is hurried; there are no sudden changes of rhythm or speed. Every technique melts into the next with total economy of motion; it looks like a beautifully choreographed performance.
Thai massage combines various pressures, movements, and stretches to loosen stiff, connective tissue, muscles and joints and to free our natural energy flow throughout our whole body.
Chi Nei Tsang
Chi Nei Tsang transforms the energy of the internal organs. It treats the whole person, the root, rather than just the symptoms. CNT works in four major ways: detoxifying, restructuring and strengthening, balancing emotions, and self awareness. In this class you will learn how to do visceral massage covering all the internal organs as well as Buddha Palm technique for energizing and increasing the healing power of the hands. Self work, meditation, visualization, breath are also included.
Ayurvedic Massage
Ayurveda is the ancient Indian science of preventative health and healing. Ayurvedic therapies are centered in either purification and cleansing, or nourishment and rejuvenation. The most valued of these hands-on therapies include warm and medicinal oil massage, acupressure, and various elimination therapies.
Reiki
In this class, you will learn how to give a full body Reiki Treatment on yourself & others, learn the Eastern and Western perspectives of the "System of Reiki", study the History of Reiki, explore the hara and chakra systems, learn about the "original" Reiki meditations & techniques for a full experience of how the "Reiki System" works. This system is a tool to connecting to your "True Self".
Clinic
A supervised, 50+ hour clinic provides a professional platform to aquire hands-on training and prepare students for a successful practice.
Ethics
Meeting the standards of the state of California and the AOBTA and the NCCAOM in practice management, this class supplies needed information for every professional.
