Course Description

Build on the theory and skills you learned from Level 1 and 2. From the strong foundation of theory, we now examine the healing potential of acupressure points. Every point will be explored within the context of Yin, Yang, 5 Elements, Organ System, Vital Substances, and empirical uses.

Put theory into practice

Having learned how to assess conditions from the energetic perspective of Chinese Medicine, now you will learn how to select groups of points to support the return to balance in Body-Mind-Spirit. Precise point location and correctly understanding the nature and uses of points will be emphasized.

About the Instructor

I love to teach this work! After 15 years of teaching and practicing Massage Therapy, I went to school for Chinese Medicine. As I was learning the theory and practice of Acupuncture I began integrating it into my hands-on work. Over the years, this integration of Chinese Medicine and Massage Therapy became known as "Meridian Massage."

I no longer use needles, I am back to working with my hands, heart, and mind. In 2016 I published Meridian Massage, Opening Pathways to Vitality. I am happy that Massage Schools, practitioners, and people living holistic lifestyles are using the book to improve their lives.

My path of learning continues to unfold every day.
