We explore Botox and fillers and target specific areas of the face for more intense treatment to expand the protocol and deliver a world-class treatment.

A: Your instructor for the Gua sha training is Clive Witham, a dedicated expert who transcends the conventional. He's not a run-of-the-mill tool-selling influencer chasing trends with a few gimmicks. Gua sha is not just a profession for him; it's his life's work. With a remarkable journey that began with a degree in International Development & Economics and led to hands-on experiences in rehabilitation programs in Uganda, Clive has delved deep into the heart of this ancient healing art. He has treated not just clients but his own two sons since they were infants, and his care has extended to thousands worldwide. As a Licensed Acupuncturist and Health Promotion Specialist (MS), Clive's unique path took him to the remote Japanese island of Yakushima, where he immersed himself in the wonders of nature, laying the foundation for his distinct approach to Gua sha. Running a chronic illness clinic in North Africa for a decade provided him with invaluable hands-on experience in the applications of Gua sha. Now, based in a serene Spanish forest, Clive has blended traditional Chinese medicine, modern biology, natural science, and personal insights into a revolutionary approach known as Ecology in Motion™ Gua sha. His promise is clear: what you'll learn in these courses transcends anything you've encountered in other Gua sha training programs.
