Speaker:

Dave Maybee, RMT
Academic Director & Lead Instructor Canadian Institute of Auricular Medicine

Dave expertly conveys his ever-growing passion in Auricular Medicine — as based on the work of medical doctors, Paul Nogier, Frank Bahr, Beate Strittmatter, and other leading physicians and researchers in the field — through his deep knowledge of the material. He engages students with clinical examples, demonstrations, and Q&A to accommodate and spark diverse interests while delivering clear objectives and learning outcomes. 

In addition to teaching, Dave integrates cranial sacral therapy and myofascial release with auricular medicine to treat unresolved chronic pain and other issues found in therapy-resistant patients (hard to treat patients who have “tried everything”).
