As a labor & delivery nurse I grew aware of the pelvic traumas that many endure and live with after birth\, with few avenues for help. In 2009 I successfully helped a client relieve 80% of her postnatal pelvic pain with one internal pelvic floor bodywork session. Inspired\, I pursued further studies\, including training with Tami Kent PT\, Bryan Baisinger DC\, John Barnes LMT\, Herman & Wallace\, and private studies with PT’s\, DC’s\, and an Osteopath\, Lee Morgan.

Contact Leslie to be added to the wait list! \nEARLY DISCOUNT: Register By January 14\, 2025:  $145  \nLOCATION:  Portland\, OR \nIn the United States\, many massage practitioners often omit breast massage from their full body sessions\, a practice that differs from the European standard of care. The breasts\, however\, play a vital role in the energetic female body\, in sexual pleasure\, and in generating total nourishment for infants. This course offers insights into breast health and therapeutic breast massage. \nWhat You’ll Learn: \nAnatomy and Physiology: Explore the intricacies of breast tissue\, gaining a deeper understanding of its structure and function. \nContraindications and Pathology: Learn when and how to approach breast massage\, and understand potential health concerns. \nNormalizing Therapeutic Touch: Discover the significance of incorporating breast massage into your practice\, promoting holistic well-being. \nInformed Consent: Understand the importance of obtaining informed consent from clients and how to navigate the necessary release forms. \nTechniques and Approaches: Master sidelying and semi-reclining approaches to provide a comfortable and effective breast massage experience. \nAddressing Common Breast Concerns: \n\nLactation Issues: Gain insights into supporting lactating individuals with massage techniques.\nClogged Ducts: Learn effective methods to address and alleviate clogged ducts.\nScar Tissue Management: Explore approaches for managing scar tissue resulting from breast reduction or enhancement surgeries.\nSelf Breast Massage: Empower your clients and yourself by practicing and teaching self-massage techniques for breast health.\n\nNote about breast massage in class: If you feel inhibited\, ashamed\, or insecure about touching one’s own or others’ breasts\, you’re not alone! In this class\, we’ll cultivate an environment of respect and curiosity about these potent glands that have the capacity to provide a complete food specifically designed for each individual baby. We will acknowledge both our anxiety and enthusiasm. Come discover the comfort and relief that comes of honoring breasts with massage!  We will practice self-breast massage\, draped or clothed\,  as well as  practice undraped directly on skin. There is the option to work through T-shirt or thin breast drape if undraping in class setting is not comfortable for you. \nPlease Note: This course does not cover techniques for individuals undergoing cancer treatment\, mastectomy\, or lymphectomy recovery. It focuses on promoting breast health and well-being. \nDon’t miss the opportunity to expand your knowledge and offer a more holistic approach to wellness in your practice! \nIMPORTANT PROTOCOLS FOR CLASS:  \n*** This class is designed for women and those identified as women.  \n*** Students are expected to be LMT or health care professional licensed to touch breast tissue. If not licensed\, please contact Leslie.  \n*** Students understand that full chest / breasts will be undraped and treated during class. \n*** Per OBMT requirement\, nipples and areolas may be exposed but not touched during treatment sequences. \n*** Professional standards and ethics will be upheld throughout class. Any student not adhering to course rules\, respect\, and standards will be immediately asked to leave the course and will receive neither course credit nor tuition refund.

SUMMARY:April 8\, 2024: BREAST MASSAGE FOR HEALTHY BREASTS
DESCRIPTION:5 NCBTMB CE’s! \nIn the United States\, many massage practitioners often omit breast massage from their full body sessions\, a practice that differs from the European standard of care. The breasts\, however\, play a vital role in the energetic female body\, in sexual pleasure\, and in generating total nourishment for infants. This course offers insights into breast health and therapeutic breast massage. \nWhat You’ll Learn: \nAnatomy and Physiology: Explore the intricacies of breast tissue\, gaining a deeper understanding of its structure and function. \nContraindications and Pathology: Learn when and how to approach breast massage\, and understand potential health concerns. \nNormalizing Therapeutic Touch: Discover the significance of incorporating breast massage into your practice\, promoting holistic well-being. \nInformed Consent: Understand the importance of obtaining informed consent from clients and how to navigate the necessary release forms. \nTechniques and Approaches: Master sidelying and semi-reclining approaches to provide a comfortable and effective breast massage experience. \nAddressing Common Breast Concerns: \n\nLactation Issues: Gain insights into supporting lactating individuals with massage techniques.\nClogged Ducts: Learn effective methods to address and alleviate clogged ducts.\nScar Tissue Management: Explore approaches for managing scar tissue resulting from breast reduction or enhancement surgeries.\nSelf Breast Massage: Empower your clients and yourself by practicing and teaching self-massage techniques for breast health.\n\nNote about breast massage in class: If you feel inhibited\, ashamed\, or insecure about touching one’s own or others’ breasts\, you’re not alone! In this class\, we’ll cultivate an environment of respect and curiosity about these potent glands that have the capacity to provide a complete food specifically designed for each individual baby. We will acknowledge both our anxiety and enthusiasm. Come discover the comfort and relief that comes of honoring breasts with massage!  We will practice self-breast massage\, draped or clothed\,  as well as  practice undraped directly on skin. There is the option to work through T-shirt or thin breast drape if undraping in class setting is not comfortable for you. \nPlease Note: This course does not cover techniques for individuals undergoing cancer treatment\, mastectomy\, or lymphectomy recovery. It focuses on promoting breast health and well-being. \nDon’t miss the opportunity to expand your knowledge and offer a more holistic approach to wellness in your practice! \nIMPORTANT PROTOCOLS FOR CLASS:  \n*** Male practitioners may be required to bring a volunteer with breasts to work on. Please confirm this with Leslie.  \n*** Students are expected to be LMT or health care professional licensed to touch breast tissue. If not licensed\, please contact Leslie.  \n*** Students understand that full chest / breasts will be undraped and treated during class. \n*** Per OBMT requirement\, nipples and areolas may be exposed but not touched during treatment sequences. \n*** Professional standards and ethics will be upheld throughout class. Any student not adhering to course rules\, respect\, and standards will be immediately asked to leave the course and will receive neither course credit nor tuition refund. \nTUITION: $145 \n			\n							REGISTER FOR CLASS HERE
