This course is aimed at established
Complementary Therapists who are already
using dowsing as part of their practice.
The course will also appeal to other experienced
health dowsers who are keen to further develop
their techniques.
As is our established policy, members attending
this course will preferably have attended
a BSD Foundation Course (for beginners)
and then the Introduction to Dowsing for
Health Course. In the intervening periods
we would expect members to have gained additional
experience through practice of the subject.
BSD understands that experience can be gained
in other ways so we do try to be as flexible
as possible when confirming suitability
for advanced courses. However we need to
ensure, as far as possible, that you as
members are at the required standard so
that you can fully benefit from the course.
It is also important that the Tutor does
not have to hold up the group's progress
by having to provide additional coaching.
