Health Care Practitioner
Shmuel Berger has designed a 6 level curriculum of the Art of Subtle Palpation. This curriculum teaches the participant the foundations of Osteopathy as taught by John Upledger, Fritz Smith, and Jean Pierre Baral. In addition, the participant learns to create a safe healing space, and learns the foundations of the energetic relationship between the therapist and client. The therapist also learns self-help techniques to stay healthy and energized in order to more effectively treat his patients. The more advanced levels deal with the Jewish Kabalistic model of healing and treatment.Participation in the courses and proficiency in the techniques are prerequisites for the Practitioner to work at the Holistic Health Center.(Each Level 30-40 hours)
Teachers/Administrators in the Israeli School System
The Holistic Center recognizes that violence in society and in the school system in particular is a growing problem. The Center will work with Teachers and Administrators and train them in clinically proven programs to reduce violence in the schools. In addition the Center will train staff to identify problems such as learning disabilities and ADD/ADHD and help treat the students with proven methods in the school environment.
