I am a Dr. of Acupuncture, I also practice and incorporate energy and sound healing to help with emotions and the psyche. Unfortunately during my time at school, we did not go into much depth on this topic and I have been eager to learn more. I am very excited to incorporate this information in my clinical practice, and will be completing all the modules.
Thankyou, Dr.Sarah L. AB,Canada

As I am familiar with the knowing that diseases and illness are inseparable from our thoughts and feelings, I highly recommend this course for my fellow Acupuncturist's. Mr. Hamid Montakab shares a wealth of knowledge and insightful understanding, directing our understanding of the enormous benefit of Chinese medicine, while treating one's emotional, spiritual, physical and psychological imbalances.

Great explanation of Shen, Hun, Po, Yi, and Zhi. What they are, their individual functions, and how to treat when issues arise. Hamid is very knowledgeable on the topic and explains things in a way that is easy to understand.
