Is one-to-one teaching possible?
Yes, but it costs a little more than group sessions.
Can you arrange accommodation & food during the course?
Yes, we can arrange accommodation and food. However, we need at least a 30 day advance notice about the number of students.
I would like to know whether there are any long-term courses
(3 months or more) to have an intensive study.
Yes, we recommend an intensive study as it provides an opportunity to learn many advanced techniques. Also it is cheaper to combine two or more different courses.
Do I get a proper Instruction Manual while learning?
Yes. Our instruction manuals are self-explanatory and include a lot of visuals.
Why do some courses of treatment take a long time?
A course of treatment uncovers and cleanses the toxins accumulated over an extended period of neglect. One, two or even eight to ten sessions may not give the desired results. So it is a bit time consuming. The body has to be prepared for cleansing based on specific needs and it takes time for the effect of the cleansing to be felt.
