Develop a thriving massage practice by enhancing your capacity to reduce or eliminate chronic pain.
Chronic pain is one of the primary reasons people seek health care, and most health care spending goes toward pain relief—making it a vital area of expertise for massage therapists with a thriving practice. This class will give you the knowledge and tools to effectively reduce or even eliminate chronic pain.
You’ll learn about the underlying causes of chronic pain, the impact of stress and diet, targeted treatments, and how to educate your clients, empowering them to take an active role in their own healing.
Why This Class?
- Pain is what motivates most individuals to seek health care.
- Most of the money spent on health care is for pain relief.
- Most of the money spent on pain relief is for chronic pain. In contrast, massage for stress reduction, though very beneficial, is considered “discretionary spending.”
- Therefore, the most effective way to develop a thriving massage practice is to enhance your capacity to reduce or eliminate chronic pain.
