| SPECIALIZED HOLISTIC EDUCATIONS |
The basis of IASC specialized educations are anti-stress holistic methods and devices for detection and healing of stress-induced psychosomatic disorders, focused on acupuncture system (computerized electrodermal diagnostics/ECD, microwave resonance therapy/MRT, magnetotherapy, contemporary acupuncturology and new technologies, Eastern massage, aeroionotherapy, ...), consciousness (autogenic training, body psychotherapy, ...) and programmed active relief (kinesiologic/sports relaxation, ...), with the emphasis on practical work in anti-stress holistic diagnostics, prophylaxis and therapy, as well as on theoretical overview of most contemporary scientific and expert knowledge in these fields, given by renown lecturers, and presented in two significant IASC Anti-Stress Holistic Handbooks (published in 1999), devoted primarily to physicians, and partly to psychologists, defectologists, pedagogues, and sociologists, educated by IASC to work in medical institutions.
During period September 1999/January 2000 the IASC anti-stress holistic program (with elements of acupuncture, microwave resonance therapy, Eastern massage, autogenic training, aeroionotherapy, and programmed active relief) was organized in Kanjiza Spa for physicians collaborating with IASC Anti-Stress Center in Kanjiza. Besides, IASC organized three specialized educations for physicians interested in MRT with introduction in contemporary acupuncturology (October 1999, March and October 2000), as well as several ECD educations (March, April, June, August, and September 2000), while other specialized programs (magnetotherapy, contemporary acupuncturology and new technologies, new acupuncture technologies in cosmetology, veterinarian acupuncture, autogenic training, body psychotherapy, ...) are still waiting for practical realization.
After passed tests and practical exams, candidates obtain corresponding IASC certificates. Cycluces of IASC specialized educations are beginning twice a year in the periods March/April and October/November, being organized on weekends:

| POPULAR AND/OR HUMANITARIAN
ANTI-STRESS COURSES
|
The basis of IASC popular educations are anti-stress holistic methods for healing of stress-induced psychosomatic disorders, focused on consciousness (autogenic training, ...), acupuncture system (Eastern massage, aeroionotherapy, ...), consciousness (autogenic training, ...) and programmed active relief (kinesiologic/sports relaxation, ...).
Until now, during the war and post-war 1999/2000 period in Yugoslavia, in order to minimize potential psychosomatic disorders caused by NATO aggression, IASC has been conducting humanitarian educations on several organization levels: IASC public anti-stress instructions on holistic self-aid, IASC courses on holistic self-aid, and IASC anti-stress courses of autogenic training for inhabitants and diabetics.
Besides, during 1999/2000 IASC also realized several educative popular courses in autogenic training and Bates exercises for better eyesight, at discount prices (most of the attendees subsequently also became the members of IASC Club, which organizes monthly popular seminars), monthly, once or twice a week, in the afternoon:
IASC course for anti-stress holistic self-aid (program enclosed;
2 hours, periodically). The bases of this course are holistic advices on holistic
self-aid from different domains (acupressure, aeroionotherapy, psychology,
recreation) [1,2]. The application of Greencare
aeroionizer (with 8 relaxing natural sounds too) is also reccommended in order
to create relaxing ionic microclimate in house and job (price: 70 points).
IASC basic anti-stress courses of autogenic training/AT (programs
enclosed; 14 hours, 7 times a month). The basis of these medically widely
recognized anti-stress programs [4] is autosuggestive technique
of relaxation of muscles and blood vessels, recognition of the body feeling
of breath and heart, and exercise for concentration, based on Schultz's idea
of the equivalence of muscular and mental strain [3,4,16].
The autosuggestive short relaxing messages are also softening one's undesired
psychosomatic reactions in daily stressful situations.
IASC higher anti-stress course of autogenic training/AT (program
enclosed; 16 hours, 4 times a month). This anti-stress program is based on
already achieved experience of relaxation, i.e. basic course of autogenic
training. By visualization exercises (guiding pictures, representations) a
deeper level of ralaxation is achieved, which might give rise to integration
of personality too [3,16-20,29-31,39-41].
The autosuggestive short relaxing messages are further softening one's undesired
psychosomatic reactions in daily stressful situations.
IASC anti-stress course of Bates exercises: By self-power to healthy eyesight
(program enclosed; 24 hours, 6 times a month). This anti-stress
program is based on Bates exercises for relaxation of eye muscles and visual
center in brain, for proper seeing and accommodation, with additional relaxation
techniques of breathing, visualization, massage, and acupressure of eyes [42-48].
In the era of high technology, when people spend too much time infront computer
and TV screens, the Bates exercises enable healthy eyes without spectacles.
IASC basic anti-stress course of traditional and contemporary aspects of massage
(program enclosed; 32 hours, 8 times a month). This anti-stress
program is based on principal theoretical and practical knowledges of ancient
and contemporary techniques of stimulation of skin and underskin tissues,
muscles, bone-joint system, and visceral organs. In combination with aromatherapy,
it is used in prophylactic and therapeutic purposes for many psychosomatic
and other disorders [15,32-39,47,48].
By applying basic techniques of massage one can help himself and his closest
relatives in their everyday relaxation, prevention and additional therapy
of numerous disorders.
" IASC higher anti-stress course of traditional and contemporary aspects of
