About the presenter:

Matthew Howe is the president of an international education company  called Touch Education. He blends his 15+ years of clinical experience  with the art and science of touch. They offer several continuing  education classes with an emphasis on bodywork for PTSD. You may also  have heard about him from an article he wrote for Massage Message about  Autonomic Flexibility. I have had a few conversations with guests around  working with Trauma, but talking with Matt gave me the opportunity to  focus specifically on PTSD. I really enjoyed my conversation with Matt,  as his personality is very warm and welcoming. I am sure this is one of  the qualities that helps him be so successful as a practitioner and as  an educator.

Class description/objectives covered in discussion: The participants will be given a podcast link to listen too discussing PTSD and how massage therapy can benefit and support individuals suffering from this disorder. We will then gather and discuss the topic of PTSD/Massage by summarizing what we learned, ask questions, and let each participant express thier ideas and feelings in a controlled discussion.
