Hospice-Based Massage
E1038 - Massage CE Program - 10 CE Hour(s)
As more people reach beyond conventional medicine for healing, massage and bodywork practitioners are being invited to aid and comfort dying persons and those who care for them. In this profoundly intimate course, internationally acclaimed practitioner Irene Smith shares openly about the multidimensional challenges and personal healing nature of this work. The textbook, 2 CDs and DVD in this course clearly present Irene's practical and philosophical framework developed from 25 years' experience.
In this course, you will learn:
- important self-care elements for the touch practitioner in hospice care
- elements needed for ill or dying clients to receive a safe, comforting touch experience in hospice care
- the importance of confidentiality and building trust in hospice care relationships
- the emotional challenges of working with the dying and the recommended methods of self-care for the practitioner
This course is for any massage therapist or bodyworker who is considering working with dying persons. It will inspire you to learn new hands-on skills.
Student Reviews
Great Course!! Very helpful.- Jodi Eaton, CMT Golden, CO.
This is an EXCELLENT course. Even though I work in the area of death and dying as a nurse and a massage therapist, and I have taught workshops on touch for the dying, I gained very valuable information and had many things validated for me in a refreshingly new way. Thank you Irene!!!- A. Kline, LMT
I have volunteered in hospice doing massage and found it emotional yet very rewarding so this course will only enhance what I have learned in the past. Thank you.- D. Shilling, LMT
