Recommendations
“The Belly” seminar was replete with useful techniques and various resources on manual therapy and elder philosophy.
The course thoroughly prepared me to understand the in-depth application of lymphatic drainage as presented by Dr Verna Hunt.
Dr Verna Hunt was extremely professional, helpful, patient and generous in sharing her knowledge. I truly felt she was sincere, empathic and constantly encouraging us to learn. I have been using her techniques and my patients have noted improvements in their symptoms.
For all the above reasons, I highly recommend Dr Verna Hunt’s courses.

“The Head & Neck” seminar gave me tools that I can use immediately in clinical practice. I really liked the lymph work, which is so needed in my clinic. The seminar gave me hands-on, effective ways to find the problem areas in the body, and ways to immediately treat these issues for the patient. I especially found it useful to learn together in a smaller group of 15 participants, which allowed us to voice our concerns about certain clinical pictures that present in our clinics. This is the type of teaching that is so important in naturopathic medicine.

“The Head & Neck” seminar was one of the best I’ve done in years! The detailed anatomy review, course material, assessment techniques, and treatment instructions provided valuable take-home material that I am already referring to in clinical practice. However, the real MAGIC was getting off the paper and learning through my hands. This experiential learning is rare and irreplaceable, and there is no more skilled, experienced, and wise practitioner to watch and learn from than Dr. Verna Hunt.
