Presented by Pamela Fitch

Our world and our work has shifted dramatically in the past decade, requiring RMTs to pay close attention to professional and client expectations. In other ways, the fundamentals of practice remain unchanged. This session offers an engaging opportunity to unpack some of the questions and dilemmas that massage therapists face. It suggests ways that participants may evaluate problems, clarify their communication and ethical responsibilities in the face of AI, changing standards, and problematic client behaviour.

Presenter: Pamela Fitch, M. Ad. Ed., RMT
