Research has shown that massage therapy has positive systemic effects for the
individual suffering from pain: massage influences the immune system, the
endocrine system, and the cardiovascular system. Neuroscientist Candace Pert and
psychologist Tiffany Field have charted the effects of touch by monitoring
biochemical changes in the brain and body. Deepak Chopra writes that, "when we
stimulate the skin, we can cause, literally, a shower of healing chemicals to
flow into our blood stream." Massage therapy offers a focus on pain management
that is part of a growing trend that includes a philosophy based on the concept
of total care for the individual - body, mind and soul. The focus is more than
the absence of pain; it is based on developing and maintaining good health and
wellness throughout a lifetime. All licensed massage therapists with the goal of
working with clients experiencing pain are invited to participate in this 6 hour
continuing education course in which we will explore and discuss the Basic
Principles of Pain Management in a Therapeutic Environment.
