Amatsu Training

You can learn to be an Amatsu Practitioner

If you have an interest in the human body and how it works, learning Amatsu will take you on an amazing journey of discovery that will allow you to change your beliefs about what you think and do.

Amatsu will provide you with excellent skills to make profound changes for your clients.

How will I learn?

The course will run over two years and your study will be broken down into three main areas:

• Practical and theory training
• Anatomy study
• Practice

The balance of these three areas will give you the skills, the knowledge and the confidence required to become a confident and competent practitioner.

Each area of learning is of vital importance to you becoming an excellent Amatsu practitioner, but in the first year the balance of study will be towards practical training.

Initially you will be taught in depth how to study and gain information from the body. Having this skill will open up the world around you and it is the foundation of the whole course.

When you can see, feel and hear what is happening you will want to know why it is happening, generating your enthusiasm to understand what you have seen, felt and heard and taking you easily in to the anatomy study.

From here you will be able to apply the techniques of Amatsu that will be the core of your skills and your practice. These will include: -

• Observation and questioning
• Muscle testing
• Palpation
• Massage, both remedial and Anma
• Mobilisation
• Seitai
• Re-patterning
• Cranial balancing

As you will need to know how to sell yourself so you can sell your skills, you will also be instructed in practice building and client management.

The course is organised so that you will learn practical skills and the Amatsu theory during the training days. Directed study will then be given so you can understand what you can now do. This means that the study of the art of Amatsu is being support by the science of Amatsu and this is the link between eastern philosophy and western science.

The course is approved by the Institute of Complementary Medicine and in your first year you will receive a 'massage' qualification.
