2020-2021 COVID19 COURSE SERIES.

The courses below can be taken one by one or in a Series.

The original idea was to help foreigners who found themselves trapped in Thailand last March and now, 7 months later, don't want to go home. Some of them have been granted Student Visas and are with us in class right now.

But the series is also designed for foreigners in Europe, North America and elsewhere who desperately want to get away and do something positive with their lives. A number of them are willing to do the 14 day Quarantine in order to study with us for 2 or 3 months, and we are  are helping them get to get their Students Visas. We are optimistic that the first batch of these brave students will be arriving here very soon.

For the moment we are offering a 15% Covid Discount to everybody to help to make this happen -- and of course that's both for your survival as well as for ours! But do take note: as soon as the 14 Day Quarantine Restriction is lifted we will return to our original charges. Lke everybody else in the world, we will be trying to catch up financially (we've been paying all our staff for 7 months without any income!).

The FIRST COURSE SERIES is highlighted in Green and the SECOND COURSE SERIES from February to April 2021 is highlighted in Purple.

Finally, we have already started to receive hopeful Reservations for the three courses from April to June, 2021 -- the 15% Discount will only apply if the 14 Day Quarantine is still in effect..
 

 REOPENINGS 2020 to 2021

Oct. 19th to 31st, 2020

80hr THAI MASSAGE COURSE  (Live-in: 12 study days + 1 day off = 27,400 baht. (with 15% Covid Discount = 23,290 baht)

Topic: Thai Traditional Massage (Nuad Boran) and Rasidaton (Thai Yoga). This course concentrates on the classic two hour Thai Massage: legs, arms, side, prone and sitting positions. Because technique with fluency is the focus,  the stomach, face, and head are less the focus than the simple grace of touch and flow over the whole body, the latter being far more difficult to acquire than any of the technical parts.

Hardworking beginners can get started on the full Thai Massage 'set' in this course, while professionals can improve their technique, refine their touch, and learn how to look after both themselves and their clients even better -- a very slight adjustment to the therapists position, for example, can add years to his or her professional life.

This course is recommended for anyone who would like to go on to take the 150hr Special Therapeutic Massage Course in January 2021. It is the essential technical platform for less experienced practitioners, and is also an excellent warm-up and renewal  for Professionals. Ask Homprang if you would like advice on this.

60hr WOMBLIFTING, POSTPARTUM CARE & RELATED HERBAL THERAPIES  (Live-in: 9 study days + 1 day off = 20,900 baht. (with 15% Covid Discount = 17,765 baht)

One of Homprang's most intense courses, students must be prepared to concentrate every minute during the hours in class and then practice, practice, practice. Includes both intricate acupressure work and abdominal manipulation as well as herbal compresses, traditional steam treatments, postpartum care for mother and baby, and herbal preparations as they are needed.

This course is often taken more than once by students who would actually like to practice Womblifting professionally as a single course is rarely enough. The course is also of great interest to professional midwives and doulas from all over the world -- working together in a class with such a diversity of students is a privilege indeed!

An added perk is that the ancient Loi Kratong Festival will be held on November 1st this year, and everybody will get to make their own banana-leaf floats to float away  their sins on the river with flowers, candles, and incense.

A 60hr HERBAL WORKSHOP including 'FOOD AS MEDICINE' (Live-in: 9 study days + 1 day off = 20,900 baht. (with 15% Covid Discount = 17,765  baht)

You can click on the title of the course for more information on Homprang's herbal work in general and can also have a look at the section of Related Photos on the Homepage. In addition there is  a Sample Program from a workshop Homprang gave two years ago-- it was  written in collaboration with her Bhutanese intern, Jamtsho Sonam, who has a strong background in Plant Medicine.

Students must remember that  Homprang is a traditional  doctor, mid-wife & herbalist, and has no academic background to distract her. That is why no two classes of hers are ever the same, and why her work is always so fresh and relevant. That is also why so many of her students sign up for some of her courses two or even three times!

The exact content of  the course will be determined  not by a formal syllabus but by the season, the climate, social as well as natural, and above all by the interests of the specific group. So if you have special interests, please do let Homprang know what they are.

Each day will begin with a session of Rasidaton (Thai Yoga) at 7am followed by herbal work, study,  talk, and visits here and there in Chiang Mai from 9am to 4pm. There is then a herbal steam bath at 6pm followed by a delicious Thai meal at 7pm -- and if you are very lucky Homprang will be there to talk you through it!

150hr SPECIAL THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE COURSE (Live-in:  22 study days + 3 days off = 51,700 baht. (with 15% Covid Discount = 43,945 baht)

The Special Therapeutic Course introduces cutting-edge acupressure techniques that are used to treat serious conditions including migraine, numbness, stroke damage, intractable back conditions, and many other ailments not usually addressed by Thai Massage. A background in Thai Massage is very helpful but not essential. Indeed, the course is  open to any Professional Therapist with a strong background in energy work like Shiatsu, for example. Indeed, the most important qualification is substantial, hands-on experience of working with serious conditions over a number of years, and a desire to go further in alleviating the suffering of those who carry them.

If you are still not sure if this course is appropriate for you, please do e-mail us with your questions, and of course tell us a bit about yourself and your professional background so that we can help you make the right decision.

The treatments in this course are evolving all the time, and many advanced students and professional therapists choose to take it more than once. The exchange with such students is also extremely important to Homprang, as she regards the class as a Lab as much as a Training Ground.
