Course Description

During this ethics course you will find yourself riveted as seasoned massage professionals and highly ethical humans, Cal Cates and Lucille Eddy, remind you that you’re thinking about ethics already… all day, every day… and that it’s actually pretty fun. 

This course is designed to get you thinking ethically and to help you feel confident about the difference between ethics and preference and codes of conduct and also about the places where things like prejudice and personal bias and money and love show up and make ethics a head-scratching, heartfelt good time.

Instructors

Instructor & Executive Director Cal Cates

Cal has been teaching and developing curriculum for massage therapy courses focused on hospital-based practice, oncology massage and end of life care since 2007. Their experience in clinical practice in hospitals around the US has informed their teaching style greatly. Cal is clear that massage therapy is healthcare and feels a personal commitment to inviting students to consider themselves as integral to a whole person healing process. Their favorite thing about teaching healthcare providers is the ability to blend nerdiness and authenticity to create opportunities to be more effective, more human and more flexible.
