Ethical Inquiry: A Conversation for Massage Therapists
(4 CEs)
As we navigate the modern field of massage therapy salient ethical questions arise and collective ideas are generated. Are our thoughts, actions and results in alignment with a professional client-therapist relationship in this changing world? As we make decisions, are they rooted in the Standards of Practice, “a live and dynamic document subject to revision”? It’s time to examine these and other questions that arise from our practices. In this conversation, each of us has the opportunity to revise and recommit to your ethical platform. Bring your knowledge, experience and curiosity to an interactive time of sharing and learning with your peers.
