| Zero Balancing Studies - Zero Balancing Programs |
| by Guest Guest |
zero balancing is an alternative form of bodywork (massage) that is concerned with the body's energy field and how it aligns with the rest of the body. A 15 to 45 minute session of zero balancing is meant to bring these energy fields into harmony, while treating and/or preventing a client's stress and its related effects. Zero balancing is meant to be studied by licensed health care professionals.
What You'll Learn
Zero balancing programs teach students how to correctly manipulate a client's body so as to bring their body and energy fields into alignment. Students will also learn how to alter treatment in response to their assessment of a client's body as well as the client's specific requests for the session.
Degree Types
Although many schools offer zero balancing programs, there is currently no official degree that can be earned in the field. However, students may gain certification. (See Below)
Career Paths
As zero balancing is meant as a discipline to be studied by licensed health care professionals, it is unlikely that you will encounter individuals acting solely as certified zero balancing practitioners. Instead, zero balancing should be found as a specialized service offered by licensed health care officials.
Job Outlook
According to the United States' Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment within the massage industry is expected to increase by 20 percent through the year 2016.
Licensing and Accreditation Information
There is no official licensing standard for zero balancing, although you are required to be a licensed health care official before you can become certified as a practitioner of zero balancing. Individuals may become certified practitioners in zero balancing through the satisfactory completion of the Zero Balancing Health Association's (ZBHA) certification course.
