Building Thriving Practices
Special Edition: Business for Natural and Holistic Health Professionals
why attend · what you will learn · details · our facilitators
You've invested time and money in your training and in developing your skills. The thing is, most holistic health practitioner training programs don't teach you how to turn those skills into a business.
In order to master your modality, you need to be able to make it your priority: that is to make it your primary focus and and derive your income from your modality without relying on a source of income that distracts you. You owe this to yourself, and more importantly, to your clients.

By attending this workshop:
You will learn the business practices that have been proven to work and increase your annual income every single year. You will also learn to add essential business practices to what you already do to ensure your success.
Practical Application to Your Practice: Theory is only valuable when you understand when and how to apply it to your unique situation.
Implementation Strategies: One of the crucial steps many training seminars leave out is how to specifically implement new ideas and practices, so they keep working to get clients for you every day, week, month and year.
Accountability and Support: We're all busy, and we all have areas of resistance to change. We offer webinars and telephone coaching to provide on-going support and focus on your specific practice goals.
A specialized program for complementary and alternative health care practitioners in private practice who:
- want to create an innovative practice with exceptional standards of service and reward for staff and clients alike
- are open to learning fresh, distinctive practices to grow their businesses
- realize that developing a professional business mindset (just like developing a clinical mindset!) is not something that happens in a day, a weekend, or from reading a book
- can achieve your potential as a therapist
- realize the enduring value of proven, time-tested ideas - and don't want to waste time and money reinventing the wheel
