Photopuncture for Horses - Acupuncture with Light! - 4 days

This is where the true power of light therapy shines.  Beyond the effectiveness of applying light therapy is discovering the relationships between the blocked energy points that we identify and their specific health indications for the body.  When using an Acupuncture Meridian approach toward scanning and applying the well documented indications for each point, we begin to understand how and why certain energy points affect the body.  Why a sore tooth may cause lameness or how a pattern of blocked points can point us toward the need to support the organs of elimination.   What can we do in an emergency, such as severe colic, to affect the body quickly without having to first scan the horse.
  • Understanding the Energy Meridians - Lights as Acupuncture
  • When is a scanned primary point an acupuncture point?
  • Introduction to Acupuncture Meridians
  • How to clear stubborn issues with meridian paths
  • Documenting and assessing findings
  • Reporting finding for clients without diagnosing (diagnosis is the sole perview of veterinarians)
  • Students receive Dr. Peggy Fleming's book - "Equine Atlas of Acupuncture Loci"
