About the Course
Adapting Massage for Major Organ Dysfunction. In this course, students learn to adjust massage sessions for clients with diseases or conditions of the liver, heart, lungs, brain, and kidneys. Primary elements we will discuss are massage session intensity, length/scheduling ("dosage"), positioning, and pacing for fatigue and limited physical reserves.
Decision making regarding infection control, referring out, emergency situations, and collaboration and consultation with medical professionals will also be addressed.
