Essential Clinical Strategies of Kiiko Matsumoto Style Acupuncture

$339.00

CLASS MATERIALS AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY UPON REGISTRATION UNTIL MAY 18!

Each year, Kiiko shares her new “favorites,” but over the decades, a set of twelve constitutional treatments has remained the foundation of her unique and powerful style of acupuncture. These deep, root treatments represent the core of Kiiko sensei’s life work, and are included each time she treats a patient.

In this class, you will learn how to quickly and accurately establish the root cause of the patient’s symptoms by combining history taking with Hara palpation, how to determine the best angle and depth of “Live Points” (i.e., precise locations that produce immediate results), how to confirm the effectiveness of your treatment, and then reinforce it with points on the back.

This innovative webinar is entirely online with a unique hybrid of live and recorded elements, including:

  • In-depth, step-by-step treatment demonstration by Kiiko Matsumoto via Vimeo, edited and captioned to highlight her use of constitutional treatment strategies, available immediately upon registration until 11:59 PM PDT on May 18, 2026.

  • TWO live and interactive Q & A sessions via Zoom with Kiiko Matsumoto’s protégé, Monika Kobylecka, on May 8 and May 9, 9AM - 5PM PDT with a lunch break from 11:45 AM-1:00 PM PDT. These sessions will be recorded and added to the showcase of videos within one week.
