June 2024 marked an incredible learning journey as Katika attended Dr. Vivian Tam's Facial Acupuncture Level 2 course in Sydney. Find out more about her latest Cosmetic Acupuncture skills.
This advanced training session was a deep dive into more detail of cosmetic acupuncture from Level 1 in which Katika attended pre-covid in 2017 and again in 2019.
Upskilling in Advanced Protocols
Dr. Vivian Tam, a leading expert from the Melbourne Cosmetic Acupuncture Clinic, guided around 40 TCM Practitioners through advanced protocols specifically designed for the neck and jaw. These areas, often neglected in standard treatments, hold the key to achieving release, free movement and slowing the ageing process. Her highly experienced approach and hands-on demonstrations provided invaluable insights. This allowed Katika to refine her techniques and offer more value to the Facial rejuvenation and Cosmetic Acupuncture treatmentsthat clients ask for.
Revisiting the Foundations
While the focus was on advanced practices, Dr. Tam also ensured we revisited and solidified our understanding of the Level 1 cosmetic acupuncture protocols. This comprehensive review was instrumental in reinforcing the fundamentals, ensuring that we were confident in our foundational techniques.
Herbal Medicine: A Natural Approach to Acne and Rosacea
One of the highlights of the training was the in-depth revision around Chinese Herbal Medicine and its role in treating skin conditions such as Acne Vulgaris, Acne scarring and the tricky one, Rosacea. Dr. Tam's holistic approach integrates the best of traditional Chinese medicine with modern cosmetic acupuncture practices, offering natural options to these common skin issues.
Special Focus on TMJ and Rosacea
In addition to acne, Dr. Tam covered treatment protocols for TMJ (temporomandibular joint pain), Teen Acne and Rosacea. Her expertise in these areas provided us with new strategies to address these conditions as best as we can, ensuring our clients receive comprehensive care for a variety of skin and facial concerns.
