This is an excellent introductory course to better understand the principle of TCM treatment. It is particularly helpful for English speaking participants to grasp the concept better. Both Shan Bin and Karen are very knowledgeable and patience instructors. I am impressed with their professionalism in teaching this course.

Well structured sessions and trainers were able to engage. I enjoyed it thoroughly and information was not overwhelming or too difficult to grasp.

For a short course like this, please skip the background of TCM and you can have about one and half sessions to spare and suggest to use it on how to monitor and perform basic acupressure to relieve common problems of seniors. - Chuen Tuck Chan
