Advanced Hydrotherapy – Advanced Spa Therapies
This innovative and challenging seminar will introduce the student to some advanced Hydrotherapy/Spa applications that can be added to their practice without the need for a “wet room”.
In the class the students will discuss the application of hot and cold in a standard Hydrotherapy application and why they are used in the applications taught in the class.
Each student will learn and receive an Aromatherapy Facial Massage and a full body wrap. Students will have the choice of either an oil wrap, a mud wrap application or a seaweed thalassotherapy wrap application. The benefits, indications and contraindications of each will be discussed.
The materials for the applications will be provided as part of the cost of the class. Students are asked to bring 4 wash clothes for the Aromatherapy Facial Massage and 15-20 hand towels for the wrap application.
Two sets of sheets plus an extra flat sheet and a blanket are also needed. All other equipment will be provided. Additionally, students with seafood allergies should be cautioned to not choose the thalassotherapy wrap application and to make this condition known to their partner in the class.
This class is presented as 14 or 16 continuing education hours.
