What You’ll Learn in an Acupressure Program
Depending on where you earn your acupressure certification, there is a variation in how long the course will take and the specific subject matter you will learn. However, in most acupressure certification classes, candidates gain theoretical knowledge of the meridian system commonly facilitated through acupuncture. And, while some introductory acupressure classes may be extended through holistic workshops and seminars, a number of massage schools and healing arts schools have begun providing acupressure certification programs as the course directive.
In addition to hands-on training in pressure points and the techniques of acupressure, students enrolled in acupressure certification programs are educated in Five Element theory, anatomy, physiology, and the pathology of injury and various types of illnesses. Additional studies in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) philosophies, as well as supplemental education in aromatherapy, hydrotherapy and other natural healing arts may or may not accompany the course; but may be offered as elective training.
During the course of the acupressure certification program, prospective therapists gain clinical training in full body acupressure massage, which entails the application of finger pressure to acu-points located along the meridian pathways (energy channels). Students will also learn that as a complementary healthcare treatment, acupressure is believed to restore the body’s “Chi,” or life force; and its ability to reduce tension and increase blood circulation, thus improving overall wellbeing.
Other acupressure certification training options include educational programs that are primarily focused in equine and canine massage therapies. These courses place an emphasis on canine/equine anatomy, physiology and pathology; and treatment thereof. Graduates of these particular programs can prospectively work in veterinary clinics and other animal healthcare facilities.
For the aspiring massage therapist, there are a number of acupressure certification courses that are included in an overall massage therapy curriculum, or as continuing education units to further enhance skills and knowledge base to provide more all-inclusive services to clients.
If you (or someone you know) are interested in finding acupressure certification courses, let professional training within fast-growing industries like natural healing, cosmetology, acupuncture, oriental medicine, Reiki, and others get you started! Explore acupressure certification programs near you.

Epidemiology and Veterinary Public Policy. $115.71 Official Veterinary Services are increasingly required to base veterinary public policy decisions on scientific grounds, epidemiology and risk analysis play an important role in shaping these decisions. A formal, indepth analysis of the multiple interactions between epidemiology, risk analysis and veterinary public policy was conducted to enable decisionmakers to direct resources more efficiently and facilitate compliance with international agreements, in particular the Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (SPS) of the World Trade Organization. The SPS Agreement recognizes the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) as the international organization responsible for developing animal health standards. The OIEs Terrestrial Animal Health Code contains scientifically based recommendations for international trade in animals and animal products. However, to date, these recommendations have not been assessed from a riskbased perspective. The study is divided in two major sections: (1) the role of epidemiology in veterinary public policy and (2) the application of riskbased approaches to the assessment of international animal health standards. The first section addresses the international framework, risk analysis and its use worldwide, and the development of international standards. The second section focuses on quantitative risk assessment approaches for the international movement of animals and products, as well as the application of compartmentalization to aquaculture production systems emphasizing the use of a HACCP approach to biosecurity.

Livestock Services in Rural India $122.67 The Governments in India have been extending livestock services to the rural poor at a huge subsidy through their vast veterinary institutional network built up, recognising its significance. Growing fiscal pressures had left the governments to bring down their priorities towards improving the quality of public provision of these services. Initiatives aimed at increased cost recovery, that could alleviate these financial difficulties, are often deferred on the assumption that the farmers would not be willing to pay. This book, a part of PhD thesis submitted to the Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Chennai, India, explores the cost and uptake of livestock services by farmers in southern India. Besides a rigorous analysis of the demand for livestock services and the factors influencing the demand, this book gives a thorough insight into the farmers Willingness To Pay (WTP) for livestock services. The probability of stating a positive WTP values for respondents of zero WTP, were estimated, besides ascertaining the scope for private veterinary services. These aforementioned factors make this book very much useful to the livestock policy makers and researchers. Author: Kathiravan, G.

Marketing Professional Services $154.53 In recent years, an increasingly competitive landscape in the service industry, transformation in consumer buying behaviour and deregulations in the professional service environment make marketing an increasingly important competitive tool for professional service providers. However, due to the notable status and previous restrictions associated with the profession, many architectural practices are still reluctant to engage in marketing activities to promote their firms. In particular the use of the Internet is deemed to be a less required facet in the application of the marketing mix. The literature suggests that the Internet can increase the opportunity for differentiation within the professional service environment and the trend that more consumers are adopting the Internet as a primary source for information emphasises the importance for professional services to adopt a holistic marketing approach that includes the Internet. This study provides managerial implications by illustrating opportunities for marketing and IT professionals to leverage their skill set onto the professional services industry and potentially engage in mutually beneficial business relationships.
