Clive Witham is coming back to the college in April 2026, to teach his very popular level 1 practical Gua Sha workshop for Health and Wellness once again.
This 2-day practical Gua sha course, which has been specifically adapted for acupuncturists at CICM, introduces you to using Ecology In Motion™ (EIM) Gua sha safely and efficiently in a clinical context.
Clive has dedicated over 20 years in the use and understanding of Gua sha, and in this level 1 course, gives you the foundation and knowledge to give consistent results to your patients.
The course includes:
- theoretical nature-based background of Gua sha & how it works
- history, research & Western/Chinese explanations of Gua sha
- tools, equipment, safety, posture & techniques
- treatment of the back, neck & shoulders
- treatment of the chest, arms & hands
- treatment of the hips, legs & feet
- practical clinical tips, marketing ideas & Q&A
You will leave with a confident understanding of the background, techniques and application of Gua sha and the drive to use it on your patients on a daily basis.
Successful participants are certified at level 1 at the completion of this course, and will receive certification.
