At this time we don't have a course scheduled in the great state of Michigan. The year is young! It would be great if you could join me in Chicago in April. I'm somewhat familiar with Indian head massage. The beauty of Compassionate Touch is that we each bring our gifts and talents to the work. Take good care, Ann

Hi Ann
Is there room in your calendar to teach a course in Michigan this year?
I was also wondering aboutIndian head massage. are you familiar with it and do you teach it? seems like this would be wondeful for the seniors. I have been massaging many of my c linets heads who may be sitting up in a chair that day. They love it. i do have a tape on it,but thinking the course would be a benefit.

Hello everyone...my name is Laurie. I work at at a Hospice in Las Vegas, NV. I was wondering if anyone knows of any online CEU's for hospice massage or elderly massage. It is a wonderful yet heartbreaking job. I would love to swap stories or talk with anyone who does or would like to do hospice massage.
