Upledger Health Science Essentials

Upledger Health Science Essentials (UHSE): on-line Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology

The UHSE program has been developed for students who do not have a hands on license or certification as a therapist and have not studied Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology. The program fulfills the prerequisite education requirement for CranioSacral Therapy 1 and for CranioSacral Therapy Certification in New Zealand.

This prerequisite courses comprise of 80 hours Applied Anatomy and Physiology and 15 hours Pathology, the UHSE program will help to build a solid foundation of essential academic knowledge to be applied in a treatment setting as well as in any future medical studies.

After completing these courses you may register for CranioSacral Therapy 1

Other study pathways for students who have not studied Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology prior to registering for CranioSacral Therapy 1 include gaining a Level 4 Certificate in Massage, taking an NZQA level 4 or above course in Anatomy & Physiology. It can be an advantage to have a New Zealand recognised qualification if you wish to go on and study other modalities such a Zero Balancing and Reflexology as examples in New Zealand. If you would like to discuss these options please message Xanthe Ashton.
