RMSAAM, in conjunction with the Northwest School of Animal Massage (NWSAM) is excited to bring you this 200 hour NBCAAM approved Foundation Acupressure course. Kim Bauer is both an Animal Acupressure master and an Animal Massage Practitioner with a successful practice in Hood River, OR. She has been practicing and teaching acupressure for over a decade and is highly regarded here in the U.S. and internationally.

We believe you need a strong background in Traditional Chinese Medicine theory to be an effective acupressure practitioner. Therefore this Foundation program was designed not only to teach you about TCM theory but also how to locate and perform acupressure on acupoints and meridians. This information is spread out in the following 5 chapters:

• Traditional Chinese Medicine Theory and Concepts
• Understanding Zang-Fu Organ Systems
• Anatomy and Acupressure Points, Channels & the 8 Extraordinary Vessels
• Assessment, Acupressure Point Classifications & Point Work Techniques
• Bi Syndromes, Contraindications and Equine Common Conditions

This course is followed by a five day in-person. More details to follow soon!!
