RÍKHARÐUR MAR JÓSAFATSSON

Ríkharður er með Master’s Degree í Traditional Chinese Medicine frá The International Institute of Chinese Medicine, Santa Fe, Nýju Mexico, Bandaríkjunum. Ríkharður er skráður Doctor of Oriental Medicine leyfi #320. Hann byrjaði að fá áhuga á náttúrulækningum á Íslandi 1985.

Eftir ýmiskonar námskeið í óhefðbundum lækningum fluttist Ríkharður til Bandaríkjanna. Hann útskrifaðist úr nuddskólanum The Boulder School of Massage Therapy í Colorado fylki og fór í áframhaldandi menntun á sviði austurlenskrar læknisfræði, þar sem hann útskrifaðist 1993 frá The International Institute of Chinese Medicine í Santa Fe, Nýju Mexico fylki í Bandaríkjunum.

Meðferðin er byggð á austurlenskum læknisaðferðum þar sem ég nota ýmis úrræði fyrir verki í stoðkerfi eins og nudd, tui na hnykkingar, nálastungur, og ýmislegt fleyrra til að ná bata. Ríkharður er með yfir 35 ára starfsreynslu.
