About the Event

The demand for palliative care, specialized care for those with chronic and/or serious but incurable illness, is on the rise. The World Health Organization estimates that more than 50 million people globally require palliative treatment each year. That number will only continue to increase as the Baby Boomers age and the long term effects of disease such as COVID19 become apparent.

What is the role of the massage therapist when it comes to providing palliative care? And considering the fact that the early delivery of palliative care can curb hospital visits and costly medical services, are we doing the most we can to benefit our clients? Are there techniques that we can use to safely alleviate their suffering and effectively improve their quality of life? How can the incorporation of essential oils enhance and expedite their experience?

The Mind/Body Connection: Massage, Aromatherapy, and Palliative Care will answer all of these questions and more as we thoroughly examine the intersection between massage, aromatherapy, and palliative care. Students will also learn how to identify essential oils that are appropriate for therapeutic use, including seven essential oils that no palliative care provider should be without.

Live Event This is a live online event. It will be conducted via Zoom Webinar.
