Why Magnetism in Philadelphia?
Philadelphia carries the weight of three centuries of American medical history (the country's first medical school was founded here in 1765), which shapes its wellness scene in distinctive ways: practitioners are unusually rigorous about scope of practice, hospital-adjacent integrative-medicine roles are increasingly common, and the city's nurse and physical-therapy communities feed a steady pipeline of credible career-changers into holistic practice. Our Philadelphia cohorts often include nurses transitioning to private practice and educators seeking complementary credentials.
For students of Magnetism specifically, Philadelphia's scene is a particularly good match: medically literate practitioner community. strong nurse and pt pipeline into holistic practice. The local cohort runs in venue partners around Center City, Fishtown, Northern Liberties, with public transit and parking accessible from across the metro.
Philadelphia applicants tend to be 35-55, with strong representation from healthcare (Penn, Jefferson, CHOP nurses are well-represented), education, social services, and family-business backgrounds. They ask careful scope-of-practice questions and value clear regulatory framing — the city's medical-legal climate has shaped expectations.
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.
