83 Muscle-Specific Massage Techniques in ABMP Five-Minute Muscles

ABMP members are loving their newest member benefit: ABMP Five-Minute Muscles, an online muscle review program that puts information about actions, origins, and insertions plus muscle-specific palpation and technique videos at your fingertips:

“ABMP is simply amazing! The new Five-Minute Muscles program is my favorite member benefit aside from full access to the hundreds of continuing education courses.” —Andrew

“This Five-Minute Muscles program is simply outstanding.” —Don

Covering seven muscle regions and the 83 muscles most often addressed by professional massage therapists (according to a comprehensive review by the Entry-Level Analysis Project), ABMP Five-Minute Muscles provides helpful palpation and technique videos—for each muscle—from master massage therapist Clint Chandler.

ABMP members can access the program at www.abmp.com/5mm, and if you’re not a member you can learn more at www.abmp.com/five-minute-muscles. ABMP Five-Minute Muscles works seamlessly on a phone, tablet, or computer, and uses new Progressive Web App technology to provide much of the information even without an internet connection.
