Hi everyone

As a new member I find it appropriate to present myself to the other

members.My name is michel,I'm 41 years and I live in the

Netherlands.My intrest in your group lies in the fact that for about

six months now I have a weekly course of shiatsu and I just started

an course by correspondence on acupressure.The shiatsu course can't

give me a graduation certificate,the acupressure course can.After

this course I'm planning to studie chairmassge and bach bloesem

therapie(is a therapie that uses essence from flowers).In the future

I hope to get a practice of my own.On a legal point of view the

Netherlands are a paradise for starting a practice for alternative

medicin.You have eight handlings you are forbidden to use,for example

no anastetic,no operating procedures,etc..For the rest you have to

follow the common ethics of a practitioner like privacy of a

patiënt,not endagering someones health.If you follow these simple

rules you can start a practice without any proof that you have

followed any course.The sceptisism of the dutch people is the

greatest problem.I'll see what the future brings to me.I find chinese

healing very interesting and a medicin that is that old is sure to be

effective.When I read the messages you have so much knowledge of the

chinese herbs.The use of these herbs are unkwown here.The herbal

treatements are based on european herbs.But I plan to buy some books

on TCM so I can learn more on the subject.In the meantime I'm already

learning a lot from the messages.Hoping to be helpfull in the future

I send you all my sincerest greetings.

Michel
