Finaltouch Training

finaltouch training

London

We are daughters, sisters, wives, mothers, learners, teachers and massage therapists. We believe in the profound power of gentle touch at all phases of the human journey, including advanced illness and at the end of life. We are eager to share what we are learning with others who feel called to serve with hearts and hands. Meet the Instructors Our Mission With the support of palliative care and hospice, a growing number of people are choosing the kinds of experiences they want at the end of life. Massage can offer moments of comfort, wellbeing and beauty at a challenging time for patients and their families. Yet most of us are not prepared with the right skills or knowledge to offer this help. Our mission is to offer top-notch education for professional and nonprofessionals who seek to provide safe, supportive touch for people with advanced illness. We also seek to connect people with other exceptional resources to support end-of-life massage – including books, websites, products and other trainings. We are passionately devoted to this mission, because we have seen firsthand the extraordinary benefits of gentle touch during advanced illness and at the end of life. Learn About Documented Benefits Our Classes Final Touch Training is a nationally approved continuing education provider (NCBTMB Provider #1146). Our workshops focus on adapting what therapists and caregivers already know to meet the needs of people with advanced illness, such as: -awareness of “healing agendas” and why these may not be helpful in end-of-life care -the stages of dying, including early decline, late decline and active dying -common symptoms in advanced illness, including pain, anxiety, shortness of breath, edema, skin changes, digestive issues, confusion and nearing death awareness -coping with loss and practical self-care strategies for preventing burnout More About Classes

Social development processes aim to bring about economic and social improvement in the lives of people through capacity building. Often this involves institution-building and social change. The International Consortium for Social Development (ICSD) is an organization of practitioners, scholars and students in the human services. It was started in the 1970’s by a group of social work educators to respond to pressing human concerns from an international, interdisciplinary perspective. The organization seeks to develop conceptual frameworks and effective intervention strategies geared to influencing local, national and international systems. It is committed to creating peaceful solutions to the problems of survival at the local, national and global levels. ICSD members use a social development approach to: Develop capacity of individuals and communities Promote world peace and social justice Improve access to adequate health care and education Overcome discrimination against women and minorities Create sustainable income and economic structures ICSD serves as a clearinghouse for information on international social development. The Consortium fosters collaboration among personnel of organizations such as the United Nations, World Bank, UNESCO, and UNICEF as well as among professional associations in the human services and institutions of higher learning. ICSD is a well-established and widely recognized international catalyst for sharing ideas among many nations and across many cultures. The ICSD Technical Assistance Roster links members’ special expertise in international social development to agencies, governments and organizations upon request. Areas of expertise include: Community and economic development Organization and program building Education and training in problem-solving processes Monitoring of social development projects ICSD provides mutual consultation and cooperative action on social development.
