As a standalone CPD course, the two day Advanced Techniques weekend is so valuable and offered me so many techniques that I could use straight away in my practice and see amazing results. Ruth is so knowledgeable and teaches in a relaxed, fun way with lots of opportunity for hands-on practice and supervision. Anyone that does this course will find it hard not to continue on to the Advanced Remedial Diploma!
