A great number of chiropractors and unqualified practitioners use an activator instrument in their office but many have never taken an official Activator Methods Course by a qualified instructor. We are pleased to announce there is finally a solution.
The Fujitega Foundation has signed a collaboration agreement with the Activator Methods International to offer the Activator Method Courses in Europe.
The courses also offer the opportunity for the professionals to eventually become certified in the technique for the two levels available: Basic and Advanced, and with CE (continuing education) credits provided by the academic branch of the ECU – the European Academy of Chiropractic (EAC).

Dr. Fujikawa is the only Activator Methods instructor in the European Union and he has a large experience in teaching the technique worldwide. He was the instructor of this technique at the Feevale University in Brazil.
His experience in teaching the Activator Methods includes Greece, the Netherlands and he has also taught the technique as an elective course at the Bahçeşehir University in Turkey and at the State University of the Ecatepec Valley in Mexico.
