The Acutonics® Certification Path
A three-module journey through sound, the Five Elements, and clinical mastery, taught live online and paced to unfold over roughly two years.

This map shows how the certification path repeats each year, so you can see where a course tends to fall no matter when you begin. Cohort dates shift a little from year to year. I am happy to confirm the exact dates for any upcoming term.
All students begin with Level I. From there, the path moves through three modules, each one building clinical depth and each one earning its own designation along the way.
Associate Acutonics® Practitioner
The foundation. Sound Gates to Meridian Harmonics, the inner nature of tone, and the groundwork in Chinese medicine that everything after this builds on.
- Level I: Sound Gates to Meridian Harmonics
- Level II: Higher Harmonics & the Inner Nature of Tone
- Energetics of Points and Meridians
- Fundamentals of Chinese Medicine
- Ethics in Clinical Practice
Acutonics® Practitioner
Deeper and more advanced harmonic work. This module carries the case study practice and elective study that begins to shape a clinical style.
- Level III: Harmonic Attunement
- Level IV: Advanced Harmonic Applications
- Sedna Super Conductor
- Harmonic Pathology
- Elective: Clinical Integration Series or Elemental Harmony
- Case Studies: Clinical Documentaries
Certified Acutonics® Practitioner
Expanded consciousness work, broadening our exploration of the Extraordinary Vessels, and a thesis or special project mentored one on one.
- Hygeia: Holism & Expanded Consciousness
- Unwinding Trauma: The Eight Extraordinary Vessels & Fibonacci
- Elective: Clinical Integration Series or Elemental Harmony
- Thesis or special project
Electives
One elective is required for Module II and one for Module III. Either elective can be applied toward either module, so choose whichever timing or topic fits.
Clinical Hours
This is where the material becomes yours: supervised, one-on-one practice that turns study into embodied skill. Each module carries its own clinical hour requirement, and sessions can be booked individually, at a pace that fits your life.
Monthly Study Groups
Open to students at every module, year round. The first Wednesday is a Clinical Review Roundtable, the third Wednesday is a Topic Study Group. Both run 3–5pm and can count toward clinical hours.
