Online / Long Distance Massage Training for Teenagers / Teeners

Teenage Massage is a specific and sensitive to the needs of a young person going through the transition from childhood to adulthood. Teenagers can be self-conscious and shy about their bodies, but massage therapy can help improve body image and help decrease depression, anxiety, and stress. This keeps a teen connected to his/her body even as it changes in bewildering ways. Massage helps teens stay grounded. Bodywork has also reportedly helped cure eating disorders, a concern among teens.

Teenage Massage also helps an adolescent understand and accept healthy nurturing touch, desexualizing the experience, and seeing it as therapeutic instead. It can also help teenagers manage stress, reduce the impact of emotional/hormonal transitions, relieve muscle tension, and improve sense of well-being and sleep and study patterns.

And finally, a beneficial therapeutic relationship can develop between teenagers and body-workers during the years when adolescents need adult confidantes but keep their parents at arms length. The practitioner can become a supportive, trusted adult in a teenager’s life, and the session itself, can be a way to deal with all the physical and emotional turmoil of this tender period of one’s life.
