In the Spirit of Master Nagano: Core Concepts and Protocols

2 CEUs NCCAOM, FL, TX 

As of January 1, 2022, this course is not approved by the California Acupuncture Board.

For over 50 years, Master Kiyoshi Nagano used his extraordinary palpation and pulse diagnostic skills to develop unique & ingenious acupuncture strategies. Often referred to as a trailblazer and seen as unorthodox in his theory & style, he mentored Tsuyoshi Shimamura in the last years of his life. In this program, Mr. Shimamura will share his knowledge & experience of this style that uniquely combines classical and modern insights.

This introductory course is ideal for practitioners and students (no experience necessary) who feel called to work in a gentle manner that is informed both by classical and modern sources. The value of studying with a master practitioner like Shimamura sensei is that you can leap ahead years in your development in a short time!

Practitioners will learn:

The foundation of Master Nagano’s treatment methods and strategies: Postnatal Qi & Prenatal Qi, Concepts of flow
How to use acupuncture points to diagnose and treat
Understand when to “treat” vs. “balance” the body in regards to musculoskeletal treatment
Enhanced understanding of how acupuncture points move/change & how to locate them
Review of muscle origins/insertions, including muscle membrane and inflammatory concepts & application to patient function
Enhanced palpation techniques, essential to detect changes in tissue and location of acupoints
