Acutonics Level I: Sound Gates to Meridian Harmonics Description
This foundational class introduces the philosophy and cosmology of the Acutonics® integrative care methodology, while illuminating its scientific roots. The class explores the cross-cultural use of sound and its healing potential, the relationship between the human body and sound, and how to work with acupuncture points, meridian pathways, and areas of pain to improve health and well-being. Students develop expanded clinical skills by exploring a wide variety of conditions. In addition, we examine the concepts of cellular memory, sound imprinting, and the role of the Kidney as the guardian of our primordial Qi, all within the context of an East Asian medical model. The course also introduces new insights into the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, which provide a powerful therapeutic gateway for hands on work.

The Role of Oxalates in Chronic Pain, Accumulation of Heavy Metals, Mold Toxicity and Autism
Are you interested in helping your clients who have pain? Are you interested in diet and lifestyle as the basis for longevity?
Did you know that:
- Dietary oxalates can cause depletion of calcium, magnesium and necessary trace minerals.
- Elevated oxalate levels are associated with autism.
- Oxalates can contribute to joint pain, chronic urinary symptoms, kidney stones and may be aggravating factors in inflammatory bowel disease.
Class Description: Plants make oxalates to protect themselves and several “healthy foods,” such as beets, spinach and tea are high in oxalates. Oxalates can be aggravating to certain health conditions. We will discuss which foods have high oxalate content, the medical pathophysiology of what can occur with oxalate accumulation and why physicians and diagnostic tests might fail to identify oxalates as a medical issue. We will discuss Chinese Medicine energetics and diagnostic patterns and how oxalates might disrupt the flow of qi within the meridians. We will also discuss the energetics of the goddess Hygiea and her relationship to preventative health, as well as astrological planetary and Zodiacal considerations.

An Introduction to Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO): An Integrated Approach To Managing A Commonly Missed GI Issue
Miami Beach Comprehensive Wellness Center is excited to announce an online, interactive webinar for healthcare providers of all backgrounds. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is a type of bacterial imbalance in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The symptoms of SIBO are gas, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea, often associated with a wide array of symptoms outside of the GI tract. Many patients with SIBO are told that have some form of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and thus never solve the root cause of their symptoms. Learning to recognize and address SIBO is useful for practitioners of all specialties as it is far more common than what is recognized in mainstream medicine and often goes undiagnosed.
An Introduction to Chronic Heavy Metal Toxicity: Epidemiology, Energetics and Treatment
According to the CDC’s Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, the top 3 highest priority toxic substances in our environment are: Arsenic, Lead and Mercury. Another heavy metal, Cadmium, ranks close behind these at position number 7. These toxins are known to be associated with a variety of human diseases: heart attacks, hypertension, autoimmune disease, cancers and more. Healthcare providers can play an integral role to address this underlying cause of significant diseases in our population. This class is an introduction to the epidemiology, clinical presentation, energetics and treatment of chronic metal toxicity.
