Course Overview

In this webinar you will learn how to find the exact point location, first through the body’s landmarks and then through concise palpation. The best points, faultlessly needled, should have a tangible effect within moments of their application. This is what you will learn to expect from properly needling Tung’s points. Susan will help you to recognize what might be an incorrect needling of Master Tung’s Points and give you the understanding you need to perfect your point location and needling techniques.

As students often make the same kinds of mistakes in needling, watching Susan’s corrections to a wide variety of practitioners’ point location of each point pattern, can be enormously helpful. These Supervision webinars are invaluable in assuring that every point is flawlessly applied and perfected.

Whether you have been practicing for decades or perhaps only months, you will benefit from Susan’s careful guidance and personal attention to detail, as she critiques the needling experience of her students, on different body shapes and sizes.
