Healthy Boundaries in Energy Work is a highly experiential ethics class, designed for you to actually learn to palpate the energy fields of the body — not only for your client but also for yourself. In this way, you will learn to have greater clarity about yourself and your client, avoid enmeshment and entanglement, conserve your own energies, and maintain boundaries in a healthy, respectful, and non judgmental way.

The “Listening Hands” classes were developed to give all manual therapists the opportunity to learn and to integrate the mindful listening and feeling experience into whatever style of bodywork you are already practicing. Subtle listening through the hands is a learnable skill, and in this class, you will discover and develop your abilities of nonverbal communication and bring greater depth, subtlety and effectiveness to your massage and bodywork practice. I welcome you in the journey of deepening your understanding and skills and bringing them into your practice.

Ethics: Risky Business

1-5PM
4 CEUs
NCBTMB approved
Price: $112
Instructor: Ellen Santistevan
Massage therapists work in one of the most intimate professional settings that we can imagine. There are considerations about touch, clothing, draping, emotional releases, client confidentiality, fiduciary relationships, attraction, attention, egotism, self esteem, gossip, dual relationships, energetic entanglement, and more. There are many ways we can cross boundaries, whether inadvertently or on purpose, and all of them hinge on a lack of self-awareness. This class is designed to explore potential ramifications of different types of boundary crossings and offer a safe place for discussion of real life situations that therapists have found themselves in as well as potential solutions for thorny problems.
