Governing Vessel & the Spine
Learn a comprehensive evaluation and treatment protocol for governing vessel. Governing Vessel is the first energy current that develops after conception. It serves to govern the development of the other meridians, chakras, organs and the rest of the body's physiology. The spine itself is the material manifestation of this governing vessel energy. By working with the spine through a certain perceptual awareness, you will learn new ways to diagnosis and treat that touch the core potential of a person. This work activates the ability to not only heal, but develop and evolve.

Advanced Central Channel
The first central channel course focuses on creating a linear model for releasing stress patterns of the governing vessel and the deep fascia. This advanced module steps outside the linear structure and explores the unique patterns that may appear in each client’s treatment sequence. The advanced module further defines the use of the proprioceptive suggestion in order to facilitate faster and deeper release of stress patterns.
