Return To Massage Article Archive   Massage Seminars: Continuing Education for Todays Massage Therapist By CarolAnn Bailey-Lloyd A number of massage seminars are centered on modality-specific instruction. For example, if you want to learn about hot-stone massage, there are massage seminars and workshops that afford exclusive educational opportunities to earn continuing education units, as well as certificates of completion in this particular course of study. Introductory massage seminars teach individuals about the history of massage, its benefits and basic touch therapies that can be used for self-healing. Other massage seminars may teach you about reflexology, a unique healing system involving the hands, feet and ears. Some massage seminars may even integrate herbal remedies and aromatherapy massage techniques. For the professional therapist, more advanced massage seminars offer training and education in pain and stress management, as well as in-depth instruction in medical massage, cross-fiber technique, Trager therapy, myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, seated massage, among others. These massage seminars are sometimes subdivided into various levels of training. A number of massage seminars and workshops can be completed in as little as a weekend afternoon, while others take several months to finish. For instance, if you are a professional body worker and would like to gain advanced training in prenatal, labor and post-partum massage, there are condensed massage seminars that allow you to earn certification in this field as well. Because nationally certified massage therapists must earn continuing education units (CEUs) every four years to retain certification status, massage seminars and workshops provide ample training opportunities to both the professional massage therapist and the curious alike. If you (or someone you know) are interested in finding massage seminars, let professional training within fast-growing industries like massage therapy, cosmetology, acupuncture, oriental medicine, Reiki, and others get you started!
