COURSE OVERVIEW:
This 4-hour ONLINE (Virtual Instruction) course covers the Hand & Foot 'M' Technique®. The 'M' Technique® was developed by Jane Buckle, Ph. D., R.N., as a means of holistic communication. This structured system of touch is suitable when massage is inappropriate because the receiver is very fragile/critically ill, or when the giver is not trained in massage.

This technique is intended to enable the giver to quickly provide physical comfort and allows the receiver to relax almost immediately.
