Why Magnetism in Boston?
Boston's relationship with holistic practice is shaped by its concentration of universities and hospitals. Our students here tend to be researchers, healthcare workers, and educators — people who came to wellness training already capable of evaluating evidence and asking hard questions about scope. Cohort sizes stay small to keep the discussion-driven pedagogy that works in this city.
For students of Magnetism specifically, Boston's scene is a particularly good match: academic and medically literate practitioner community. high bar for evidence and scope of practice. The local cohort runs in venue partners around Cambridge, South End, Brookline, with public transit and parking accessible from across the metro.
Boston applicants are often 35-55, with backgrounds in academia (PhDs in cognitive science, psychology, or neuroscience are surprisingly common), medicine (MDs, NPs, PAs seeking complementary credentials), and education. They ask harder admissions questions than almost any other market, want to read primary sources, and value faculty who can speak honestly about evidence — including its limits. Our Boston cohorts tend to produce graduates who are unusually credible in clinical-adjacent settings.
What you'll be training in.
For a deeper introduction to Magnetism as a practice tradition, see the full program page.
Magnetism is a hands-on energetic practice with European roots, particularly French and Belgian, that traces its modern formulation to the work of Franz Anton Mesmer in the late 1700s. Although Mesmer's specific theory of "animal magnetism" was scientifically discredited, the practical hands-on tradition he initiated was refined and continued by generations of practitioners — particularly in France, Belgium, Spain, and parts of South America — and remains a vital wellness modality in those regions today.
A magnetism session looks deceptively simple. The practitioner stands beside the seated or lying recipient and uses a series of slow, intentional hand movements — passes, sweeps, transfers, localized contact — to support the recipient's energetic regulation. Where Reiki tends to settle the practitioner into a still, neutral state, magnetism is more dynamic: the practitioner is actively giving, drawing, sweeping, redirecting. The traditional descriptions speak of giving fluide, drawing it back, redistributing it.

When Magnetism cohorts run in Boston.
Boston cohorts adjust around the academic calendar: January and September starts align with university rhythms and produce strong attendance; May cohorts are smaller. Snow rarely cancels classes (the city handles winter well), but the schedule includes contingency days. Every in-person session is a full day, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., with no evening classes — students with university appointments plan their training days around the academic calendar.
