I believe the hospital bedside is one of the most important and meaningful places for massage therapy integration—whether as palliative, rehabilitative, or injury/surgical recovery.

As massage research literature continues to grow and improve, this work reflects on us as a profession. But remember, embracing the research and science does not mean abandoning the art.

Massage therapy research might not be where it is today if not for the landmark work of Tiffany Field, PhD.

Many massage therapists assume the paths open to them are limited: start a private practice; work in a chiropractic/physical therapy office; or work in a franchise. But there's another option—opening a clinic built on a team-based approach to massage.

Feeling stuck, like you're trying the same marketing tactics as every other massage therapist out there? The key to standing out is specialization.
