CranioSacral Therapy Review Classes

Course Length:  9AM-5PM
Synopsis:  An abundance of material is presented and practiced in the CranioSacral Therapy (CST) classes.  The review class provides the practitioner with a one-day class in which all of the material from the class is reviewed and practiced.  It is an excellent opportunity to clarify questions that arise as you take the class material into the clinical setting.
 
Currently there are review classes for the CSTI and CSTII levels.

Each class is a wonderful way to:

• Review the material,
• Practice and solidify CST technique,
• Discuss clinical applications of the techniques, and
• Work with a leading expert in the field of CranioSacral Therapy.
