Therapeutic Communication Skills for Massage Therapists
The Secret of Keeping Satisfied Clients
When a person comes in for bodywork more than a physical body walks through your door. The whole person arrives, and any part of that body (physical, emotional, mental, and/or spiritual) can become awakened and active during the session. A successful therapist knows how to interact with (not react to) whatever part of a “human’s being” is being expressed. A successful therapist is much more than a good technician. S/he knows how to touch, listen and communicate effectively.
You can learn simple communication skills, verbal and non-verbal, that respectfully support both yours and your client’s experience. You can increase the success of your practice simply by learning proven therapeutic communication skills that are well within the legal scope of your profession.
In this class you will discover why some conversations go smoothly and some lead to misunderstanding, frustration and even conflict. You will learn constructive, nonjudgmental responses to all of your clients’ experiences by learning which communication patterns strain your relationships and which nurture receptivity and collaboration.
