Foot Zone Therapy Session Hygiene Issues
Much of the following information (otherwise known as my opinions) is taken from the ‘Standards and Ethics Form’ that each zone therapist registered under my name with the Utah Massage Board must agree to and verify their agreement and willingness to live according to in their practice of Zone Therapy by signing the form. You will notice, as you read, that not all of the following advice is about hygiene. Sorry about that. At least, I am a little bit sorry!
Quality zone therapy sessions require a systematic approach to the acquisition of skills and knowledge, and the self-discipline to always act in a professional and responsible manner. A ‘professional manner’ when touching any part of another person’s body must always include basic cleanliness and concern for proper hygiene. This will prevent the transmission of any ‘disease’ entity between therapist and client and from client to therapist—and then, potentially, to the therapist’s or client’s family members.
In May, we will be talking about KIDS AND ESSENTIAL OILS. Essential Oils are such a blessing in the lives of children — and in the lives of those who care for and love them! I can’t imagine raising my family without the blessings of essential oils and other natural remedies. This month we will be talking about some of my favorite oils, herbs, blessed waters, and more. See the full list of topics.
In September we will be talking about FIRST AID. We will cover a long list of minor things that Dr. Mom might deal with on a day to day basis. We will discuss cuts, burns, headaches, colds, diarrhea, allergy symptoms, anxiety, and so so so many more. Our discussion will include essential oils, herbs, minerals, and blessed waters. Please see the index at the bottom of the blog for a complete list of topics.
