The program is a blend of Worsley Five Element theory, Jin Shin Do system of acupressure, Neurolinguistic Programming, Hakomi theory, Emotional Freedom Technique, and more, where the acupressure points are accessed from a physical, emotional, and spiritual approach. Anatomy and physiology, communications, ethics, and business courses are an integral part of the program to enhance the development of professionalism and success in setting up a practice. An indirect supervised clinical practicum is ongoing throughout the duration of the training for guidance and consultation to ensure confidence upon graduation.
