Acu Rockstar

Somewhere between ancient wisdom and very impressive witchcraft sits Kiiko Matsumoto — the Japanese acupuncture legend who can read a body better than most people read Google Maps. This June, the world-renowned practitioner lands in Amersfoort for a hands-on workshop packed with palpation tricks, hormone-balancing wizardry and enough clinical gems to make me sharpen my pencils in advance, because I’ll be assisting and officially notulating the seminar— basically the modern equivalent of carrying herbs for Sun Si Miao.

Expect real patients, real-time treatments and zero dusty theory vibes — just clever, deeply intuitive medicine from a teacher whose seminars tend to fill up faster than a group chat before a festival. Bit of an acu-rock-star situation.
