THERAPIST
SELF-CARE
Approximately
80% of people who start out in the exciting field of massage
& bodywork will drop out after the first 2 years!
Mostly due, among other factors, to their hands giving out and
not possessing the physical stamina to do their work.
Important aspects of self-care, such as overuse syndromes,
burnout prevention, building strength, coordination, and
flexibility, social support, and stress management are some of
the topics that will be addressed in this workshop. There will
be lots of self-help 'tools' to learn about and use in the
class.
Dates
& Times to be announced! Keep Checking back!

INTEGRATIVE
REFLEXOLOGY
A Claire Marie Miller Seminar, Inc |
|
There
are reflex areas in the hands and feet that correspond to
every part of the body including the organs and glands.
These parts can be affected by stimulating the appropriate
reflex areas. Reflexology is used to relieve stress and
tension, stimulate deep relaxation, improve the blood supply
and promote the unblocking of nerve impulses to normalize and
balance the entire body. Reflexologists apply precise pressure
to release blockages that inhibit energy flow and cause pain
and disease. This affects the internal organs and glands
by stimulating reflex points of the body. This targets and
breaks up lactic acid and calcium crystals accumulated around
the 7,200 nerve endings in each foot. this is why we
feel so much better when we get our feet treated. Reflexology
is helpful for people with hypertension, anxiety, or painful
conditions of the body. It is a safe and simple way to
induce relaxation and a genuine sense of ell-being and to help
the body to heal itself.
"Bring
the Feet to Life" was designed to introduce conceptually
and in practice, the four theory integrated approach. This
approach which teaches "the parts that make a
whole," helps make reflexology make sense. The workshop
creatively weaves together: the theories of structural
integrations through foot alignment; meridians as precursors
to modern foot reflexology; zones as a grid application to
finding the reflex points and areas; and proprioceptors, the
messengers to the nervous systems and to the organs.
Integrative Reflexology, created by Claire Marie Miller
and taught by Valarie, is a fun, easy on your
fingers, and a common sense way to learn and practice
Reflexology.

A MIND-BODY-SPIRIT approach to Pregnancy Massage...

Nurturing
the Mother was conceived as a workshop and certification in
1990 by Claire Marie Miller. It was born out of the passion
Claire has for pregnancy, birth, and motherhood. It is also
born of the desire to support women having an empowered
journey as they become the mothers of our future generation.
Claire has studied with many teachers in the childbirth and
prenatal psychology field. Her teachers have included
Jeannine Parvati, Elizabeth Noble, Suzanne Arms, Michael
Odent, David Chamberlain, Thomas Varney and midwife Kate
Winningham.
Claire gave birth to her three children completely natural;
James, in the hospital, Jessica at home who Claire delivered
herself, and Danielle who was an underwater birth delivered
by her father.
Throughout all three children, Claire received pregnancy
massage, labor massage, postpartum massage and gave her
children infant massage. Her daughter Jessica was also a
conscious conception, Claire and her husband were aware of
the egg and sperm meeting, and all the way through the
zygote implantation in the uterus.
Claire has attended around 40 births both at home and in the
hospital. She has trained thousands in this powerful womanly
art of Nurturing Mothers.
