Post-traumatic Growth: Opportunities & Possibilities for Recovery

Course overview

This course explores the concept of post-traumatic growth (PTG) and its relevance to therapeutic practices, including massage therapy. PTG refers to the positive psychological changes that can occur after experiencing trauma, distinguishing it from resilience. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how trauma affects individuals and how therapeutic interventions, including touch therapy, can support recovery and well-being. By integrating PTG principles, massage therapists can foster deeper connections with clients, enhance healing, and provide a supportive environment for those recovering from trauma.
