> Very good advice! I myself have run into the "touch" problem as well. I make sure that even friends and family sign a disclaimer because I am not a massage therapist. What I am about to do is give a demonstration to a local spa. I will ask a massage Therapist to give the aromatouch to another massage therapist while I instruct. This can be done without touching anyone. I have done it one on one to teach a friend how to do it on her ill mother. So this will be a new experience actually teaching a class with several observers. But I am starting back to school in January to become a Certified Natural Health Professional, and with that title, I will be allowed to "touch" as it is 5 classes before you can be certified with a test and certification in each class. There are classes provided all over the states, so go to the web site and check it out. This is a great way to be able to take out aromatouch to the world. Go to CNHP.org
