“I have taken several continuing education courses with Hilary. Topics covered included point location, refining CSOE skills, and rapport skills, to name a few. As a result of her amazing teaching ability, I feel more competent and confident in all these areas. I have grown tremendously as a practitioner, as a direct result of taking Hilary's seminars, and plan on attending future courses she offers. I highly recommend her seminars to all CF-EA Practitioners.”

EARLY 2011Practitioner Track Program Toward a Master of Acupuncture in Classical Five-Element Acupuncture The Zang Fu, particularly the Zang organs, are recognized as the pivotal forces for the physical health and well being of an individual. We know each Zang also has an emotion associated with it, however, when practical TCM theory is offered most emotional experiences are attributed either to the heart or the liver. Would you like a deeper perspective? Would you like to learn the intricacies of the emotional and spiritual web of the individual and have tools to treat the different emotional and spiritual states? This Master of Acupuncture Program is designed for practitioners of other disciplines. it will introduce you to a deeper and more complete understanding of the impact of all Zang Fu on the human experience. It will broaden your treatment skills and clinical insight profoundly. Stay tuned for specific information! |
