Massage Therapy, Blood Pressure, and the Heart

Instructor: Debra Curties

April 8 & 9, 2006 - Winnipeg, Manitoba

Massage therapists encounter clients with high blood pressure and heart-related concerns on an increasingly frequent basis. It is important to be able to evaluate a client's case information for cardiovascular stressors, to ask questions that will help evaluate the extent to which the heart has become compromised, and to adapt treatment plans for safety and effectiveness. This 2-day seminar will begin with a concise review of cardiac function and dysfunction, and then will take the participant through a series of practice-based scenarios to address case history taking and treatment plan decision-making.
