Incidentally, when I took my one-year weekend Intro to Massage course, we
were specifically taught to get detailed (!) information about our clients'
nutrition etc even though there is very little we could do with that
information, apart from referring on. I'm not too happy with this, given
that nutrition and dietetics is a four-year degree course, but it seems the
norm at least for British ITEC qualifications. What do practitioners on this
list do - only ask the client about nutrition when they suspect it to be
relevant? Or are nutrition questions part of the standard intake?

Regards,

Maria Wolters

Hey Louis:

It is NOT in our field of expertise, range of professional training or 
even our current job description to council on nutrition or health 
issues such as real or imagined vitamin issues or parasites.  If these 
kinds of questions come up, refer to the relevant trained professional 
specialist.
