Craniosacral Therapy Courses

Turning Point Training offers a range of Craniosacral Therapy courses and workshops, from basic to advanced level, providing training opportunities with the needs of different practitioners in mind.

Diploma in Homeopathic Mesotherapy (Biopuncture)

Homeopathic Mesotherapy is a technique whereby remedies are applied via injections directly to an area of the body that is dysfunctional, encouraging the body’s own healing mechanisms. Some practitioners have likened the effect of applying remedies in this way to creating a turbo charge for the body’s healing processes.
