Learning Objectives for Our Understanding the Benefits of Massage Therapy for PTSD CEU Course

First, by examining a list of this class’s learning objectives, you’ll understand what you can expect to gain from participating in this course. And, secondly–and perhaps even more importantly–you stand to gain as an adult learner. When taking on new information as an adult, there are both disadvantages to be overcome (maybe it’s been awhile since you’ve been in school) as well as advantages to be harnessed (you’re motivated, focused, and probably more interested in the content than the average college student). As a result of preparing you for what the course will cover, reading through the learning objectives will help to increase your level of retention throughout the course and aid in making your learning more effective and efficient.

In layman’s terms, our continuing education course will cover the history of the technique, its benefits, various contraindications, and an effective sequence of techniques for you to use in your massage practice.

That said, let’s go into more detail. After completing this course, you’ll be able to accomplish the following:

Recognize Symptoms of PTSD

  • Re-experiencing
  • Avoidance
  • Hyperarousal
  • Cognition and Mood
  • Physical Pain and issues
  • Substance Abuse

Understanding the signs and the symptoms of PTSD will help guide the massage therapist in how to treat the client but at the same time the therapist can not diagnosis. Rather, if there is a suspicion the client has PTSD, the therapist can ask the client if they have a medical doctor they are seeing. This is where health care can become a collaborative care with other health providers who are qualified to help this clients.

Benefits of Massage Therapy for PTSD

Tiffany Fields from the Touch Research Institute out of University of Miami/Miller School of Medicine published her findings of the conditions treated by massage therapy. Reduction of cortisol, reducing prenatal depression, pain syndromes, and blood pressure and hypertension are examples to show how the physiological effect of massage therapy and how it can help the symptoms of PTSD.

What are CEUs, and Why are They Important?

Your continuing education as a massage professional involves two important components. On the one hand, your daily experience in the clinic provides you with a practical education that’s an absolute necessity to your professional growth. At the same time, however, it’s equally essential to continue your education in a more traditional way. If you’re wondering how you can do that, we’re here to help. Massage CEUs, or Continuing Education Units (GUIDE TO LMT CONTINUING EDUCATION), are an excellent way to keep learning long after you’ve graduated from a massage program.

And while massage CEUs are a huge part of professional development, they’re also often a legal requirement. In most states, all licensed practitioners are required to take a certain number of CEU hours (NCBTMB GUIDE) each year (or sometimes every two to three years) in order to keep their license current.

As an NCBTMB Approved Provider of CEUs, Panda Massage CEU can provide you with quality education that fulfills state and national requirements.
