Description

SU JOK ACUPUNCTURE/THERAPYSu Jok therapy courses are new to the UK, however, it is very popular in India, Korea, Australia, America, Moscow and parts of Europe where it has been taught for a number of years. This course is being taught in association with Indian Su Jok master, Ashok Kumar Kothari who is approved by and registered with the International Su Jok Association. Su Jok works with correspondence systems on the hands and feet (not akin to refexology) on physical and metaphysical levels, using acupuncture, acupressure, moxa, magnets, seeds, colour, etc. to correct energy deficiencies which cause disease/disorder in the body. The beauty of Su Jok is that it is very easy to learn and the benefits to the client are often instantaneous. Basic, Intermediate and Advanced courses have been set up to commence in February, and will continue at 3 monthly intervals throughout 2007 See website for further info. and course dates.HOT STONE MASSAGE - Thermal stone massage is becoming increasingly popular as an advanced massage course, however, it is not a new therapy. The principles of using heat (yang) and cold (yin) to bring about beneficial changes within the body have been around for many years. Stone Therapy is more than just a relaxing experience, it provides a number of therapeutic benefits e.g. the cold stones increase blood circulation and the warmth is able to penetrate to a depth of 4cm. The stones work on physical and spiritual levels, bringing about feelings of total relaxation. The stones are created from energy and thus give off energy, which can be channelled for healing purposes to the client and to the therapist. Other benefits for the therapist are that the stones take the heavy work out of massage and lessen the risk of RSI, tendonitis, etc. INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE - Marma points relate to energy spots within the body which when activated through pressure and massage, clear blockages within the bodys subtle energy system, bringing about deep relaxation and feelings of well-being. Marmas are an integral part of Ayurveda, which is Indias traditional healing system. They also resemble acupuncture points of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Indian Head Massage has been adapted from marma point therapy, and works on specific marma points on the head, face, occiput, neck and upper back. I have developed this CPD course, not only to enable you to competently convert your massage skills from couch to chair, but to also bring awareness of the bodys subtle energy system and its innate ability to heal itself when fully relaxed.
