Daoist Zangfu Acupressure

Daoist Zangfu Acupressure is a powerful bodywork treatment method to return fundamental health to very sick patients

Focused on regulating the Qi flow in the organs of the body cavity, Daoist Zangfu Acupressure is a powerful bodywork treatment method to return fundamental health to very sick patients. Originally passed on by a wandering Daoist, it was nearly lost in the Cultural Revolution. Today, there are only a handful of people focused on using this incredible bodywork system in the clinic. It was the first clinical treatment method learned by Andrew Nugent-Head, taught to him by the late Professor Wang Jin-Huai.

Please note this course can be purchased by itself here, but it is also included in the purchase cost of the five module Chinese Bodywork for Clinical Practice course as module 01. In both this stand alone course and in the Chinese Bodywork for Clinical Practice course, the digital edition of the Daoist Zangfu Acupressure book is included.
