Deerfield Healing Art - Treatments and ClassesLisa J. Berger, M. Ac.

 

Zero Balancing classes are a whole-body-mind adventure that combine fascinating and accessible information with hands-on practice. Students feel touched by the work as both a recipient and as a practitioner.  Pinciples taught in ZB classes may be applied to other forms of bodywork, to relationships, and to business practices. ZB study guides provide instruction and guidelines for safe practice.

Zero Balancing courses are designed for the health care professional yet are open to people entering a healing profession who have some relevant experience and study.  The Core Zero Balancing Program taught in two segments (ZB I  and ZB II) provides a solid foundation for performing Zero Balancing. Students who take both courses separated by just a few months get the most benefit from this training.

The following ZB courses are described below along with scheduled class dates and locations: ZB I, ZB II, Review Day, Geometry of Healing, Freely Moveable Joints, and Alchemy of Touch.

Zero Balancing I

Zero Balancing I is the first part of the two-course Core Zero Balancing Program which teaches how to engage the skeletal system to facilitate a deep alignment of body and mind. Both ZB I and ZB II combine demonstration, theory, principles and hands-on practice.

ZB I is a thorough conceptual and tactile introduction to the art of ZB. Participants learn how to:

• evaluate skeletal energies,
• create balancing fulcrums, and

• touch with clear boundaries.

This course prepares health care practitioners to give simple Zero Balancing sessions to their clients.

ZB I offers 25 CEU hours for acupuncturists (NCCAOM) and massage therapists (NCBTMB). Tuition is $595 or $545 if paid in full one month in advance of the course. If you register for both ZB I and ZB II the combined tuition is $995 (balance for ZB II can be paid during ZB I).

Zero Balancing II

All participants, whether new to ZB or trained before this program was redesigned, will learn new fulcrums, reconnect with key principles, receive touch feedback and deepen their understanding of essential aspects of ZB practice. 

ZB II offers 25 CEU hours for acupuncturists (NCCAOM) and massage therapists (NCBTMB). Tuition is $595 or $545 if paid in full one month in advance of course. Combined ZB I and ZB II tuition (balance may be paid during any ZB I course) is $995.

Geometry of Healing

Geometry of Healing teaches how to work with several types of energy fields that may not be fully addressed using Core Zero Balancing techniques.  You will learn how to access and evaluate vibratory fields, obtain information therein, and how to balance and clarify both the field itself and the content associated with it.  In Geometry of Healing, cutting edge scientific concepts are related to practical, observable, experiential ZB principles, methods and skills.

This course includes lessons on:

  • self-referencing body signals
  • scientific theories and conceptual models including quantum physics, holographic theory, complex systems, and "the gap" as defined by Deepak Chopra
  • a set of fulcrums that balance different types of energy fields

In addition, you will review principles and skills from Core Zero Balancing (ZB I & ZB II), receive demonstration fulcrums and sessions, and exchange full ZB sessions.
