Everyone grieves, it's part of life... but with the added losses experienced with the pandemic, our communities are feeling it even more so! Loss of health, loss of friends & family members in death, loss of a job, loss of physical contact, loss of socialization, loss of a relationship due to quarantining or working from home, having to homeschool, loss of normalcy...the list goes on and on. These are the people coming to our tables right now. As Massage Therapists we are trained to alleviate physical pain, but do you feel equipped to handle intense emotional pain? Especially the pain and overwhelming feelings caused by grief and loss? If not, you may feel helpless or incapable of providing what your client needs. I have worked with grieving clients for almost 20 years and have received my certification as an Advanced Grief Recovery Specialist. This training will increase your value and confidence as a Therapist and allow your clients to feel more secure and nurtured during a vulnerable time.

You will learn:

• What is GRIEF?
• How does the stress of grief affect our bodies?
• What are common coping behaviors?
• Compassionate client care
• Treatment protocol
• Aromatherapy for grief
• Therapist self-care
• Marketing
