HealthForumOnline Adds New Online CE Course on Stress Management Strategies for Use in the Healthcare Context

Posted by Newspad.com search: "alternative medicine" on January 24, 2012

HealthForumOnline (HFO) announces a new continuing education (CE/CEU) course entitled Stress and Health: An Introduction to Mind-Body Approaches to Healing to their online library of nationally-approved CE/CEU courses for psychologists, social workers, counselors, and nurses. As the link between stress and illness becomes clearer, healthcare providers must understand the variety of stress-related symptoms that patients manifest, as well as clinically effective stress management techniques. Ancient mind-body interventions - including meditation and yoga - are widely used today to complement traditional Western medicine as cost effective and successful treatments of many diseases (e.g., heart disease, headaches), as well as to reduce treatment-related side-effects (e.g., chemotherapy fatigue). This online CE course reviews the impact of stress on health, and presents state-of-the-science mind-body interventions for clinical application to manage stress, prevent disease and promote health. HFO’s over 75 online CE/CEU courses are fast, convenient and cost-effective with free ongoing access to course updates.
