MARK DALE, 2009 student

" Fantastic clarity and purpose. "

" Just incredible - such an amazing depth of understanding. It is so rare to find someone who knows their subject so well and yet still manages to explain it. Had a ball, would like to do this over and over. "

" Excellent, excellent, excellent! Magnificent use of different resources. "

" An essential workshop for practitioners who want to take diagnosis to a new and deeper level. This workshop should run and run year on year. I'll be back! "

"Definitely must become an annual event. "

Feedback from 2007/2008 students.

This is a 2-day event aimed at practitioners familiar with the basic clinical practices of treating the CF (the causative factor of 5-element acupuncture) and who want to develop the sophistication of clinical insight and effectiveness that the withins offer. This workshop is highly interactive and is most effective with large groups of people.

We will observe shades of difference and similarity between people who share the same CF diagnosis and increase our understanding of how this is influenced by the withins. Niki will guide us in working in a way where the intention and presence of the practitioner becomes part of thre treatment as well as the needles, moxa and choice of points.

This workshop is open to graduate acupuncture practitioners and clinical (year three) students.
