• Required Curriculum for Tennessee Massage Law Continuing Education Courses and Massage School Instruction

• Business Practices
• Dual Relationships
• Sexuality

Participants are encouraged to bring examples from their own experience in practice to share or explore in class discussions. Wear comfortable clothes and bring materials to take notes. A copy of the current Rules & Regulations will be provided either in person or by emailed PDF forms.
