Hope to see you in Prague!

Starting in 2015, courses B and C are typically 3-day courses. However, if you take these courses in Prague, they are 4-day courses. This is because we can cover so many more topics and go into much more detail during presentations and lab time as most of the DNS certified instructors participate in the courses in Prague and we recruit our own patients for numerous live demonstrations. Your trip to Prague will be worthwhile!

Prague courses are international courses! You will meet colleagues from the same or similar profession from different countries and continents! The international networking during and after the course is very inspiring and entertaining!

Prague is a beautiful historical city with many restaurants, concerts, museums, bars, pubs that are vital to experiencing true European atmosphere and culture. Come to see why Prague is considered the most beautiful city in Europe!
