The Habits of a Happy and Healthy Massage Therapist

A Self-Care Class

It has been said that the average lifespan of a massage therapist is 5 years. Audrey will share many of her own habits that have kept her going strong for close to 25 years. As a personal trainer, corrective exercise specialist and holistic health coach she has much knowledge on the subject of self-care. You will come away with an understanding of the importance of posture and mobility as well as many tools and techniques to maintain a pain-free lifestyle as well as what to do when an injury occurs. We will also discuss boundaries and practice habits to prevent overwork and burnout. A healthy body and mind are essential to having a happy and healthy practice.

She worked for several destination spas over the years that had strict protocols and training procedures for relaxation treatments. Individuals often reported receiving "the best massage of their life" and said "wow that felt so much longer than an hour!". In her clinic she offers Clinical Approaches and also Stress Relief massage. Her goal is to pave the way forward towards more informed care. We need more evidence-based, standardized approaches that are truly integrative and focused on whole wellness. This is not "spa massage". This is an advanced treatment approach with measurable outcomes.
