Course Details
Amatsu Training is done on a part time basis, mostly at weekends. The first two years training take you to “Practitioner Level”. On completion of these 2 years you will qualify as an Amatsu Therapist and will be invited to join Amatsu Therapy Ireland, our governing body, as a full member www.amatsutherapyireland.ie
There are an additional 2 years of training that you can take after your basic course, year 3 being instruction in how to work with the space around organs, and year 4 being instruction on the Cranium.
Our classes run in modular format.
Emphasis in first year (Anma Level) is on the muscles and body movement and in second year (Seitai Level) on bones, ligaments and body movement. Successful completion of examinations and course work (homework and case studies) at each year gives you access to the following year.
There are 8 Modules in each year. Each of the modules are run over two consecutive days, and there are 20 full days in the year. Included in the 20 days are a 2 day revision weekend before the exams, and a 2 day exam weekend.
