ruling on the concept of wellness massage 
The current seminar (the photo of the massage plate for the Power Plate) gave Barbara a very important note: The District Court of Kiel and the OLG Schleswig a training institute are allowed to issue certificates for "spa massage therapists.
So far I have assumed (and I have also learned the above) that "massage therapist" as such a trademarked term Education profession is so that we may dranhängen anything forward. These are the two above-mentioned courts clearly see differently: "Although the designation as a" masseur "or" masseuse "only in accordance with § 16 para 3 of the egsetzes the professions of physical therapy (massage therapist and physiotherapist Act) allowed in the compound. with the term "wellness", the name should not be protected. " (Source

For many the term now easier, I think. So far, there were absolutely no suitable word to express that offers massages. As the term is not protected, we must also, as mentioned, without the appropriate certificate to have earned.
A second decision of the courts is that the institution may not issue certificates for "spa therapist". Here, I can understand though, that the institution may not issue such certificates, but I advise against using this term, if no Therapy examination was passed. The
§ 1 of the Alternative Medicine Act says:
(1) Those who want the medicine, but are not bestallt as a physician practice, requires, in addition to the permit.
(2) the practice of medicine under this Act, any professional or professional activity carried out for detection, cure, or alleviation of disease, suffering or physical injury to humans, even if it is exercised in the service of others.
(3) Who has had the medicine been professionally and wants to exercise continues to receive the permit in accordance with the rules, introducing the term "Therapy". (Source

The word "therapy" implies, curative treatment, a "preventive treatment" therefore seems to me a dubious concept to be. If you google this term, you end up exclusively to medical pages, which are generally ill people to go to their secondary diseases or damage or the outbreak will be prevented. The I see no reference to "wellness" has. And who advertises as a wellness or as a massage therapist was not sufficient to customers can be sure just sick people to speak, get the enacted no more massage and now look elsewhere help. Whether the massage therapist will probably reject the massage, he would have it anyway?
For Wellness massage is helpful in any case the verdict. Again, many thanks to Barbara (which we almost did not have get out of the gym, as well as I she enjoyed the sports park). While two participants have today visited the new Zumba course, we had another go at crisp minus 4 degrees with our Nordic walking poles. In perfect Winter weather and nice company that has made a lot of fun. Nevertheless, we were glad when we could warm up to us ...
