Course Overview

If you are a massage or manual therapist, you don’t just work with muscles — you work with people’s stories, emotions, nervous systems, and energy. Without strong boundaries and self-care strategies, that work can take a toll.

The Energy-Smart Therapist is a deeply practical and experiential 3-part webinar series that teaches you how to protect your energy, maintain emotional balance, and build a sustainable therapeutic practice. Through a blend of neuroscience, somatic awareness, and energetic boundary techniques, you’ll learn to stay grounded, centered, and resilient — even with demanding or emotionally intense clients.

Kara — licensed massage therapist, educator, and somatic-energy integration specialist — brings 20+ years of experience helping bodywork and healing professionals thrive without burning out. She combines applied neuroscience and autonomic regulation with intuitive, embodied practices you can use immediately in your treatment room.

You’ll learn how to manage heightened sensitivity, avoid emotional fatigue, and maintain clarity and presence — without feeling drained at the end of the day.

Why This Training Matters

Most continuing education teaches how to take care of clients.
This one teaches how to take care of yourself.

You will learn:

• What happens neurologically when you “pick up” client emotions or energy

• How to use breathwork, autonomic cues, and somatic anchoring to stay grounded

• How to deliver professional compassion without absorbing client stress

• Communication and presence skills that reinforce your boundaries

What You’ll Learn (Learning Objectives)

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

✅ Describe the biological and neuroscientific foundations of empathic sensitivity and their relevance to therapeutic work.
✅ Explain how autonomic regulation and heart–brain coherence relate to practitioner well-being and client interaction.
✅ Apply somatic and perceptual strategies to strengthen energetic and emotional boundaries during sessions.
✅ Demonstrate effective nonverbal communication that conveys clarity, confidence, and professional presence.
✅ Design a personalized self-care plan using evidence-based strategies to prevent burnout and sustain long-term resilience.
