One Year to a Successful Massage Practice with Laura Allen Clayton 8 CEU's
Our deep tissue massage is designed to relieve severe tension in the muscles and connective tissue. Our therapists use slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the affected areas to alleviate pain and stiffness.
So you want to be a teacher 3 CEU's
This is an introductory class for those who desire to teach massage, as an instructor in entry-level massage school, as an online educator, a CE provider, or as a community educator. It takes more than being a good massage therapist to be a good instructor. You’ll get all kinds of tips for creating a teaching experience that will benefit both you and your students.
The Educated Heart: Roles and Boundaries 3 CEU's
This very interactive class is based on Nina McIntosh’s The Educated Heart (which I have authored the last two editions of since her passing in 2010). Many times, ethics classes focus on the boundaries of the client—but we need to think about our own boundaries as well! We’ll view short videos depicting common dilemmas that massage therapists are faced with concerning their own boundaries, and attendees will take turns giving different reactions—sounding judgmental, personalizing issues, or handling things in a calm and professional manner. It’s great practice for when pesky situations arise, and great fun as well.
