Ishta Spinal Touch™

Practitioner Course

The Practitioner Course is open to all existing, active therapists who hold professional indemnity insurance and have completed our Foundation Course, one of our Access Courses, or have taken a different spinal touch training.

The Practitioner Course consists of three, two-day seminars and attendance at all is required. There will be assignments and case histories that must be completed between the seminars. There will also be a final practical assessment and a written examination. The latter is sent over to America to be marked by Dr. LaMar Rosquist. On the successful completion of all of these, a certificate to practise Ishta Spinal Touch will be awarded.

To ensure that a high quality of supervision is maintained the teaching ratio is one tutor to two students.

It is scored as 48 hours CPD (Continuing Professional Development).
