Additional Details...
Master Kiyoshi Nagano mentored two prominent Japanese acupuncturists:
Kiiko Matsumoto & Tsuyoshi Shimamura
"I created a System that allows acupuncturists to appropriately treat the Root"
-Master Nagano
In this program, Shimamura-sensei will share his knowledge & experience;
you will become proficient in Master Nagano’s diagnostic & treatment methods
Why study this system?
"Our goal as medical practitioners is to treat each patient appropriately & effectively. In my years of practicing what Master Nagano has taught me, I continue to experience the wisdom of exploring the depth of this theory, the precision of the evaluation and beauty of the treatments."
"I look forward to meeting you and learning with you! You will become more confident treating your patients. Moreover, you will learn techniques to advise patients with self-care. Your patients will feel the benefits, leading to a happier 'state-of-mind'. In turn, this provides us increased motivation to study further and work harder to deliver results that patients enjoy!" -Tsuyoshi Shimamura
Friday Night Study Q&A (7-9pm)
On the Friday night prior to each module Shimamura-sensei has made himself available for intimate 20 minute Q&A sessions. This is an opportunity for you to ask questions & deepen your knowledge directly with Shimamura-sensei; SEiSH will be present to assist. This is an opportunity you do not want to miss!
The Q&A opportunity is for 2 students per 20 minute session and requires pre-registration (coming soon). The aim is to provide direct access to Shimamura-sensei in an informal setting.
