KIIKO MATSUMOTO PHILADELPHIA SEMINAR
SAT AND SUN, Sept 21-22, 2019 9am-5pm   

Join one of the greatest acupuncture teachers of our time as she introduces new details from her ongoing research, while also reviewing the fundamentals of her style. Every chance to witness her in action is a valuable opportunity for both new and experienced students of Kiiko style! 

Topic: New explorations of the Kidney and the Triple Warmer in clinical practice
Kiiko Matsumoto, always curious and exploring applications of classical literature, will present her latest research regarding weakness of the kidney organ, the many ways this can manifest symptomatically and her latest treatment strategies. Enjoy her fascinating theoretical explanations regarding back Shu points and the Triple Warmer meridian in relation to Daoist creation theory, while also seeing her treatments at work via demonstrations on difficult conditions such as high blood pressure, gout-related pain, multiple drug side effects, diabetic neuropathy, and more. Demonstrations ensure you will know how to apply her approach the next day in your clinic to get real results.
