Description

I received a story in which body odor was a factor. I turned the question back to you . . . and got hundreds of responses! In this episode of “I Have a Client Who . . .” we discuss what kinds of body odor issues turn up in massage therapy settings, when it’s appropriate to discuss it, and some strategies for how to make those conversations compassionate and supportive.   Sponsors:     Books of Discovery: www.booksofdiscovery.com     Host Bio:                    Ruth Werner is a former massage therapist, a writer, and an NCBTMB-approved continuing education provider.
