About The Event
Cannabis? Wait, is it legal to use for massage? What is CHABA, and what if clients ask me to use a cream or lotion they have that has cannabis in it for their massage? Will I get in trouble for using it? Will it affect me? What about the discussion I’m seeing about all of this on social media. Is any of it accurate? How do I navigate these issues and not get myself in hot water?
