This 3 hour workshop offers an intensive overview of utilizing acupressure and reiki as non-pharmacologic symptom management options that you can utilize in your palliative practice.  We will discuss the rationale behind these treatment options, how they work, what symtoms they can target and practical tips on how you can easily get trained to provide these interventions in the inpatient or outpatient setting.  We will review our experience adding these modalities to our own practice --- the benefits as well as the pitfalls.

Target Audience

Targeted clinician specialties (MD, NP, PA-C) including clinicians from general internal medicine, family medicine, hospital medicine, oncology, hospice and palliative care, critical care, geriatrics, nephrology and cardiology.
