Course description

In this seminar, a large practical part ensure that Acupuncture practitioners learn in a short time the combined application of Acupuncture and Osteopathic techniques so that it can immediately be transferred to their own practice.

«Herr Mazzanti und seine Assistentin waren sehr aktiv und jederzeit bereit auf Fragen einzugehen und behilflich zu sein. Das war sehr angenehm. Außerdem war die Kursstärke optimal für eine gute Betreuung.
