This three-day workshop will build on the foundation forged by the Level 1 workshops that we have been offering nationally since 2001. While Level 1 ACE Massage Cupping and MediCupping workshops focus on learning the techniques, movements, applications, and safety, Level 2 will take this knowledge and build upon it to truly position the practitioner “within the treatment cup” along with integrating a more intense scrutiny of hydration issues in the “body of water”.

ACE VacuTherapies Level 2 serves as a higher-level course for both ACE Massage Cupping and MediCupping.

The Level 2 workshop is a honing of assessment skills using specific evaluation criteria, along with ACE VacuTherapies techniques and concepts to create individual protocols for clients with acute and chronic conditions. Special attention is dedicated to the review of bio-magnetic theory and applications, along with a review of the lymphatic system to address the intensive tissue dredging that characterizes vacuum therapy.

Participants may choose to present a case synopsis or client study devoted to a particular health imbalance or condition.

Case Synopsis Suggestions:  

1. SOAP Notes
2. Treatment Diagrams
3. Client Comments and Testimonials
4. Photographic Documentation
5. Practitioner Observation
6. Client Feedback Notes

This workshop takes vacuum therapy to the next level and is fundamental for creating the “thinking therapist” that has the observational skills to effectively address almost any condition or application.

Easily help clients of all ages with the power of ACE VacuTherapies. Build your practice quickly with medical referrals based on dramatic results!

This three-day workshop begins at 8:00 am and concludes 4:30 pm each day.  Please arrive 15 minutes prior to class each day.  Successful completion earns 22 NCBTMB CE credits. Graduates of this program become Certified ACE Massage Cupping™ or MediCupping™  Practitioners (CAMCPs) and are listed on the national website with contact information.  A wall certificate is issued upon completion of the workshop.

Please be prompt and dress comfortably.  We suggest bringing a sweater or light jacket for warmth and water for hydration.  Lunch will be determined each day by the presenter and will be one hour long.

What to Expect from Class

Expect the unexpected!  Each student responds to this modality based on their condition at the time.  There is a high level of hands-on work, much more ACE Massage Cupping™ or MediCupping™ bodywork than would normally be done for a client.  Keeping warm and adequate hydration assists any processes that may develop.  Participants who have not received regular bodywork may experience remarkable changes.  These experiences are necessary for the practitioner to fully understand the complex effects of this technique.
