About the Workshop
What stresses you out? Where do you hold stress or tension? What do you DO to release?
As we embark upon the holiday season, join us for an interactive workshop that will share practical and physical tools for anyone to use.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine offer us “tools” in which to relieve stress, relax tension, and let the bodies energy flow. When we are “stuck” we have pain, where there is movement there is no pain.
Some of the tools offered in this workshop will include acupressure, home remedies from our ancestors, and just random handy tricks of the trade picked up over 15 years in practice.
RSVP:
Space is limited, so please RSVP at 303.322.3373 or info@eatingdisorderfoundation.org.
