Ontake Level 2
Freelearning, January 18th 2025
Get a glimpse of this course and join moxa experts and authors Merlin Young and Oran Kivity for a free and illuminating virtual talk exploring the rich and diverse world of moxibustion practice:
Description
Using Hirata’s holographic mappings, heated bamboo is applied rhythmically on the skin to trigger the body’s self-healing mechanisms. Hirata’s primary goal was to create a system that was easy for patients to learn and apply to themselves. This is now once again possible with the application of Ontake. Easy to learn and simple to practice, Hirata Ontake Therapy (HOT) will provide you with a straightforward approach to healing yourself and treating others.
HOT can be used to target symptoms by boosting the body’s self-healing mechanisms. It can be combined with any style of acupuncture and bodywork practice or used as a self-healing method at home. You will learn to apply Ontake Warm Bamboo using Hirata’s basic model and Dr Manaka’s variations and interpretations.
