Superficial treatments
don't bring Happiness

If you've ever tried Fillers or Botox...

You may have noticed their effects don't last very long, you need to repeat them.

 

Have you ever stopped to wonder why that is? It's because these treatments are merely band-aids for underlying patterns in your body.

 

These patterns persist, and the symptoms recur time and again, because we're not addressing the root of the issue.

Botox hinders the natural contraction and expansion (breath motion) of the tissues in your face. When you isolate a part of your face from the natural circulatory flow, it becomes an obstruction. This newly created obstruction may not cause immediate issues, but down the line, it will lead to complications. It's a path heading downwards, not towards the elevation we seek.

This approach is diametrically opposed to the goal of Facial Gua sha. To achieve a radiant face, we need to invigorate it, not stifle it. We want to restore the breath motion, the the blood flow, to our skin, not segregate it.

Facial Gua sha isn't about Beauty,
it's about Life.

Have you ever encountered a person whose face isn't bound by conventional standards of beauty, yet emanates a magnetic radiance that leaves you spellbound?

Their beauty doesn't rest on physical perfection, but radiates from an inexplicable source, stirring a deep sense of admiration within you.

Commonly misconstrued as a mere commercialized beauty trend, the true essence of Facial Gua sha lies far beyond skin deep. It isn't about hiding imperfections or battling the inevitable process of aging.

 

Instead, it's an empowering journey of unlocking one's inherent potential.

Imagine a garden of flowers, each unique and beautiful in their way. With appropriate care and nurturing, these flowers grow and bloom into their fullest expression, displaying their vibrancy for the world to admire. This mirrors what Facial Gua sha does for us – it nurtures our face, helping us blossom into our most radiant selves, inside and out.

Facial Gua sha isn't merely about achieving an ideal of perfection; it's about enhancing our unique beauty.

Anything less than this is both to misunderstand what you are doing and to fail to see the real meaning of beauty. 👈

These are useless

A Gua sha tool is just a tool.
It's nothing without the right knowledge.

A Gua sha tool can either give you false expectations, or change your life.

In my first Gua sha book I talked about when I was an apprentice craftsman in Japan. 🗾

I told how intricately made chess pieces which were carved from thousand-year-old trunks🌳While they were beautiful on their own, their true significance emerged when placed on a chessboard alongside other pieces.

The same principle applies to a Gua sha tool.


It's just a piece of stone or metal or plastic or whatever.

It's only when you see it glide over the surface of your skin like a ship sailing in the wind that you see what it does. ⛵ And only when that ship is navigating the ocean of skin with precision and purpose do you truly understand the tool. 

That's the most precious commodity you can acquire. Unfortunately with Gua sha, good knowledge is a rare thing.

What You've Been Taught is
Untrue or Ill-informed

KOMOREBI(3).png

Gua sha, at its core, is a tissue treatment.

Far from being mystical, it transcends the realm of simple skin treatments and goes beyond just promoting lymphatic drainage.

When we look beneath the surface of the face, we discover an intricate network of 'rivers' — our body's extensive circulatory system.

 

Our body is a complex three-dimensional biomatrix, composed of multiple layers. From fascia, muscle, tendons, and ligaments, to bone, fat, and more — each part contributes to these river ecosystems, enabling us to comprehend the intricate circulation patterns within our bodies.

If there's any 'magic' to be found in Gua sha, it lies in the profound reconnection with nature, and the journey to understanding our bodies on a truly intimate level. 🍃

  • What if I'm not happy with the course?
    We take your investment seriously, and we’d appreciate if you took our investment of time and resources into your success in treating with Gua sha seriously as well. Due to the nature of the services and/or products provided, refunds will not be given unless otherwise specified in writing. If you are not sure about the course, please buy one of my books first.
  • Do I have to download anything special to do the course?
    No, all the courses are completely online. The videos can be watched from any device connected to the internet. The text files appear on screen.
  • Can I access the course with a mobile devices?
    Yes! The entire program is entirely mobile responsive and can be accessed on all devices.
  • What does "Prices are subject to VAT (only in the EU)" mean?
    All prices are subject to local VAT laws and regulations for European Customers ONLY! The price quoted excludes European VAT and is still to be added to the total cost, depending on your country. If you have an EU VAT number you can put this in the checkout process and the VAT is removed from the price.
  • Can I pay in different currencies?
    You can pay with your local credit card or PayPal account, even if you only have US dollars or another currency. The currency will be automatically converted to US dollars at the checkout with no additional conversion cost to you. It doesn't matter where you live or which currency you have—you can join the program without issues. There are online currency converters if you need to check the price in your local currency. For example here: https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter
  • ・Is the course recognised?
    The EIM courses are recognized by the International Institute of Complementary Therapists (IICT) for membership and insurance. The EIM courses are also recognized in the USA by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). The EIM Facial Gua sha course is eligible for 14 CE hours and the EIM Body Gua sha course is also 14 CE hours. If you do both, you receive 28 hours CE credit. The Komorebi Institute is an Approved Provider for the National Certification Comission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM). The live courses have 16 CE hours pending approval. We are also an approved education provider for the Florida Board of Massage Therapy, Georgia Board Of Massage Therapy, South Carolina Massage/Bodywork Panel, Tennessee Board Of Massage Licensure and Massage Therapists' and Wholistic Practitioners' Association of the Maritimes. It is also applicable for many CEU/CPD/PDA Certification programs in the UK and other countries. If you have any specific query about recognition, contact me for clarification.
  • ・Do I need to show up at a particular time?
    You do not need to show up anywhere live. I designed the program so you can learn entirely at your own pace. So if you're not available right from the beginning because you're going on vacation or have a lot going on, you won't miss anything. 100% of the course materials are pre-recorded and available in your Member's Area anytime you want to access them. And, because you have lifetime access to the course materials, you can learn at your own pace (or review any part of the course again).
  • ・What if I am not happy with a course?
    We take your investment seriously, and we’d appreciate if you took our investment of time and resources into your success in treating with Gua sha seriously as well. Due to the nature of the services and/or products provided, refunds will not be given unless otherwise specified in writing. If you are not sure about the course, please buy one of my books first.
  • ・I'm not trained in anything else. Can I do your Gua sha training course and can I use it to treat professionally?
    The certificate courses are aimed at professionals in the health and wellness sector but if you've read any of my books, you'll know that I try my best to break things down and explain them in the clearest way possible. This means that the course is also applicable to people who don't yet have the skills to treat others and wish to specialize in Gua sha. This is the reason I have included the professional insurance information which you will find in another one of these FAQs
  • ・How much time can I expect to spend per week?
    The entire program is broken down into easily consumable knowledge bombs. So you can work on it whenever you have time whether you invest 10 minutes per day or 3 hours — it's totally up to you. I recommend consuming one or more lessons each day and then implementing it before moving on.
  • ・What if I have questions after the course is complete?
    After you complete the course, you still have access to the material and to our internal messaging system. This means you have an easy way to ask any question and get a fast response to it, anytime!
  • ・Is it worth your hard-earned money?
    If you’re trying to master Gua sha on your own, it’s probably going to be tough. You’re probably going to go through a lengthy trial and error period where you don't really know what you're doing. You may then blow some money on a mediocre Gua sha course by someone who barely knows more than you. But, if you do have someone to back you up, then mastering Gua sha without all the drama is within reach. Especially when that person is still excited about Gua sha as they were 20 years ago and never stops trying to expand the limits of what can be done! Which makes the $$ worth it, not simply in the amount of wasted time, effort and costs that you'll avoid, but in all that specialized knowledge which is near impossible to find. You can do great work with Gua sha straight after the program. Betty, a recent graduate, was able to surprise her diabetic Chiropractor by reducing his symptoms of numbness after one treatment using the principles of Ecology in Motion. Let me help you navigate mastering Gua sha, so it’s worth your your hard earned money.
  • ・What does "Prices are subject to VAT (only in EU)" mean?
    All prices are subject to local VAT laws and regulations for European Customers ONLY! The price quoted excludes European VAT and is still to be added to the total cost, depending on your country. If you have an EU VAT number you can put this in the checkout process and the VAT is removed from the price.
  • ・Is it for me even if I'm not working with clients yet?
    Absolutely. The earlier you learn the strategies and ideas, the better. Many therapists get bad habits early on and try to understand what they're doing based on wrongly applied ideas. Ideally it's best to start with the right strategies and methods before using them on clients.
  • ・Do I have to download anything special to do an online course?
    No, all the courses are completely online. The videos can be watched from any device connected to the internet. The text files appear on screen and if there are quizzes and exams, they are multiple choice online. The tutorial and assessments for the EIM Gua sha courses can use whatever video technology you have available e.g. your mobile phone camera. So no specialized equipment or technical skills are needed to complete the programs.
  • ・Can I access the program with mobile devices?
    Yes! The entire program is entirely mobile responsive and can be accessed on all devices.
  • ・Can I pay in different currencies?
    You can pay with your local credit card or PayPal account, even if you only have US dollars or another currency. The currency will be automatically converted to US dollars at the checkout with no additional conversion cost to you. It doesn't matter where you live or which currency you have—you can join the program without issues. There are online currency converters if you need to check the price in your local currency. For example here: https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter
  • ・What are the payment options?
    The payment system uses two well-known and secure payment methods - PayPal and Stripe for Credit/Debit Card payments. All prices and payments are in US dollars.​ If you don't have PayPal or a credit card, you can contact me to arrange another payment method by simply sending me an email.
  • ・Can I get professional indemnity insurance after completing a course?
    Yes, for the professional courses you can. Our courses are recognized by the IICT which offer membership and professional insurance for those based in the UK, the EU, Australia and New Zealand.
