Why Magnetism in San Diego?
San Diego's wellness market has two distinct pillars: the military and veteran community (the metro hosts the largest Navy presence in the U.S., and Veterans Affairs San Diego runs significant integrative-medicine programs), and the tourism and hospitality industry, which produces a steady pipeline of service-worker career-changers. The biotech corridor in La Jolla adds a third, smaller but growing, student stream.
For students of Magnetism specifically, San Diego's scene is a particularly good match: strong military-veteran community. tourism industry pipeline. growing biotech. The local cohort runs in venue partners around North Park, Hillcrest, La Jolla, with public transit and parking accessible from across the metro.
San Diego students are often 30-50, with strong representation from military and veteran communities (active-duty separating, military-spouse career questions, post-deployment integration), tourism and hospitality, and biotech. The military-veteran pipeline brings unusual depth to trauma-informed practice work.
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.
