Workshop Description

MediCupping Level 1 & ACE VacuTherapies Level 2 Intensive

28 CEUs (NCBTMB)

This workshop will introduce and build on the foundation forged by the Level 1 workshops that we have been offering nationally since 2001. While Level 1 focuses on learning the techniques, movements, applications and safety, Level II will take this knowledge and build upon it to position the practitioner “within the treatment cup.” As is the tradition in our workshops, students will experience intensive hands-on exposure to the techniques that are presented.

Our Level 2 workshops are a fusion of approaches using ACE Massage Cupping™ bodywork techniques and concepts to create individual protocols for clients with specific conditions. Special attention will be dedicated to the lymphatic system due to the intensive tissue dredging that characterizes the Massage Cupping™ bodywork technique.

Participants will present a case synopsis of either a single or group client study devoted to a particular health imbalance or condition.

Case synopsis suggestions:

• SOAP notes
• Treatment diagrams
• Client comments and testimonials
• Photographic documentation
• Practitioner observation
• Client feedback notes

About the Educator

I have been interested in the power of touch most of my life, but I worked in the trade industry as a welder, machinist, and maintenance mechanic. In 2012 I made a 180 degree career change and found massage therapy, which has become an absolute passion. After being licensed in January 2014, I opened a private practice specializing in post-surgery, chronic pain, scars, burns, breast cancer, and any medical massage I could be trained in.

I met Anita Shannon at a trade show and immediately began taking continuing education courses with ACE.  After going through Levels 1 & 2, breast health intensive with Anita J. Shannon, and Lymph/cupping with Beth-Ellen Zang, and following Anita to classes and trade shows, Anita gave me the opportunity to teach. I look forward to inspiring and helping therapists grow in cupping therapies.
