Foundation Acupressure Course

Oban area

4-day course: The first weekend is Module 1 and second weekend is Module 2.

Over these 4 days you will gain theoretical knowledge of Chinese Medicine theory and Acupressure practice which will enable you to use acupressure within your treatment repertoire. The course covers upper body and torso treatment points. 

The aim of the Modules are to give existing body worker therapists another treatment option for their clients. 

Those who wish to begin their therapy training journey are invited to complete our anatomy and physiology module in order to access the other modules. 

Once the 4 day Acupressure course is completed, other modules can be undertaken. We see the 4 day course as a foundation for our other courses; Cupping, Ear Acupuncture, Moxibustion and Herbal Medicine. (These courses are currently in development and dates will be submitted soon)
