This workshop, offered by the White Willow Centre for Natural Therapies and Holistic Study, is perfect for anyone who would like to learn how to provide rejuvenating hand and foot massage treatments that enhance relaxation, relieve tension and promote a sense of well-being. From practitioners looking to enhance their offerings to parents and caregivers interested in learning a wonderful way of relieving stress, the Hand and Foot Massage workshop is designed to share the general wellness benefits of focusing on two often-overlooked areas of the body.

Participants will delve into techniques that target the hands and feet, recognizing their significance in overall well-being.

This workshop emphasizes the therapeutic effects of massage on these extremities, which are vital for daily activities and often bear the brunt of stress.Throughout the session, attendees will learn various massage techniques tailored specifically for the hands and feet.

Participants will acquire practical skills and gain a deeper appreciation for the therapeutic potential of hand and foot massage in everyday use.
