Course Overview
Bodymapping Acupuncture is an advanced acupuncture style, drawn from the Master Tung tradition and Richard Tan's Balance Method. In this style, local treatment of conditions is avoided in favor of distal points. In an anatomically precise manner, Bodymapping Acupuncture guides practitioners to distal point combinations to address pain, dysfunction, and stagnant conditions. These points are highly effective for pain treatment, with near immediate results.
Cole Magbanua has 25 years experience treating a wide variety of conditions with this method. Unlike other practitioners who wander through a variety of teachers before settling on a style, this has been his primary method, developed for the entire time he has been in practice.
