VAS Confidence-building Workshop
- $180.00
Overview
The Vascular Autonomic Signal (VAS) is a means to read autonomic nervous system responses to stimuli (including medical frequencies). The VAS offers a means for pulse-guided assessment that can make the difference between an educated guess and gaining access to the most privileged information the nervous system has to offer.
Your hands-on practice in this confidence-building workshop will be guided by demonstrations covering various contexts (e.g. for many clinical approaches). All designed for you to gain a breadth of experience and develop solid grounding in VAS palpation.
- Find and validate active points
- Detect VAS over areas of scars, inflammation, other dysfunctions
- Check for dominance
- Learn useful clinical applications for VAS
