STUDENT REVIEWS

“The Auricular Acupuncture course was a good, concise one day course, with quality content which was presented clearly in a logical manner with good handouts. The in class interactions were good with all questions being answered with knowledge and honesty. No faffing, just as it is. Look forward to another course with you in the future. Best wishes.”Paul Bellamy, Severn Sun Studio, Coleford

“This Ear Acupuncture course was a revelation to me and transformed the way in which I practice. The course covered theory, history/background, application and practice/needling/location/ear seeds etc and of course the health and safety aspects of using Auricular Acupuncture in a clinical setting. The day was fascinating and has spurred me to extend my knowledge and find out more. Using the approach and techniques have provided greater flexibility in my practice, meaning I can provide treatments to clients who may require adaptations. I highly recommend this course; I have got so much out of it and now practice the techniques with confidence and receive repeat client bookings for the approaches I now use as a result of going on this training. ”Tracey Minogue, Runcorn

“I found the Auricular Acupuncture training very interesting, I use auricular acupuncture all the time & have had some excellent results, some within hours.”Jayne Griffiths, Barrow-in-Furness
