“Trauma-informed Tools for the Lymphatic Therapist - Learn how to work with your client’s stress levels while staying in scope."
Many clients seeking lymphatic massage have been through highly stressful events or present with complex conditions. Lymphatic massage is excellent for activating the parasympathetic system, but what about the client who can’t relax? They clench at the jaw, the breath is shallow, and their hands are gripped into fists, and no matter what we do we can’t help them feel safe.
Treating the nervous system first allows your client to relax and accept the work you are doing. This workshop teaches you to:
· Recognize patients who are influenced by stress physiology
· Use nervous-system-informed techniques to create safety and relief and get better outcomes.
· Better assess clients during treatment and know when and how to intervene.
Maximize the benefits your client receives from lymphatic treatment with nervous-system informed care. Get better outcomes and treat with confidence and clarity.
