- Section 1: Foundations of Ethical Practice (30 minutes)Foundations of Ethical Practice (30 minutes) This section lays the groundwork for ethical practice by exploring the core principles that guide the massage therapy profession. We'll define key concepts like beneficence (doing good), non-maleficence (doing no harm), and autonomy (respecting a client's right to choose). We'll also examine the purpose of professional codes of conduct and how they serve as a roadmap for making sound, ethical decisions in your practice.
