Level 8 - Traces of Ki - meridian-free shiatsu incl. practical day (information under "Remarks") and elementary cooking 3

This course focuses on meridian-free shiatsu, which is another central element of our shiatsu. When working without the network of meridians, orientation in the energetic body space of the client becomes important. The techniques of Local Shiatsu are significantly expanded, the understanding of Kyo and Jitsu is deepened, and you learn to give Shiatsu along these patterns of Kyo and Jitsu. The work with connections in the energetic space is addressed; the understanding of Shiatsu as support and accompaniment of processes is deepened. On one day of practical training, the participants, supervised by the teacher and the assistants, treat four clients they do not know. At this stage, the "Integrating" and "Transferring" process phases of the KT competences are deepened and the significance of the core competences in relation to the upcoming case study is explained. The aspects of "case-related collaboration with caregivers" and "interdisciplinary collaboration with other professionals" are also deepened. As part of "Elementary Cookery 3" (with Steven Grütter), traditional home remedies to alleviate a variety of ailments are also taught.
