First we examine the causes of lymphatic and circulatory disorders according to the Western and Eastern medicine model . Then we do a hands – on approach with WESTERN and CHINESE MANIPULATIVE SOFT –TISSUE AND ACUPRESSURE TECHNIQUES that
a) detoxify the meridians, acupoints and lymph glands
b) strengthen the organs responsible for lymph and detoxification by stimulating qi that stimulates circulation, reduces water retention and frees stored up toxins.
THE COURSE FOCUSES ON:
- Increasing the flow of oxygen and blood to the facial area, neck , trunk and limbs
- Toning, tightening and detoxification of skin and organ systems
- Better mental alertness, focus and relaxation for the client
- Emotional and lymphatic cleansing through the use of essential oils
- Preventive maintenance
