About the International academy of meridian and colour therapy

Christel Heidemann

Christel Heidemann has taught meridian therapy since 1969. This led to the founding of the Internationale Akademie fur Meridian und Farbtherapie in 1996. When she passed away in 1998, the courses were continued by Barbara Frerich. Cees Tjeerdema is responsible for the Dutch Internationale academie voor meridiaan- en kleurentherapie (International academy of meridian and colour therapy). The meridian therapy course is a continuation course for people who have already completed a basic medical education, like doctors, physiotherapists, acupuncturists, naturopaths, skin therapists, and hbo*-nurses. This is an hbo*-level course. (*hbo is a Dutch form of higher education)

There is a professional association of meridian therapy according to Christel Heidemann based in The Netherlands.
