Calcium Masterclass

Calcium education can’t be accomplished in a tweet. Just like treating calcium, sometimes you have to go deep.

Welcome to your new destination for holistic calcium education – a comprehensive collection of the world’s best calcium operators having live dialogue, debate and case-sharing while reviewing a new 14-chapter calcium compendium developed in partnership with Optima Education.‎
