Cranial Sacral Program Curriculum: Program Dates TBA

This program consists of two components: Training Modules and Enrichment Studies. Together, these comprise a complete body of material. Certification students design their own curriculum format by choosing from the following course offerings, while incorporating the enrichment studies as a vital part of their learning. Continuing education students are invited to take any part of this training as individual courses. Modules dates are arranged for students to enter the program in either the Spring or the Fall (one module approximately every 4 weeks, with completion in 6 months). Or students may spread the program out over a full year. Please contact us at 1-800-808-5188 or locally at 505-982-6271 for tuition information.
