The Destiny of Massage Therapy
Massage Therapy obviously is the primary embodiment in healthcare of “high-touch”. What role can the lessons conveyed by massage and massage education play in the health and destiny of our world? In our profession there is an exciting push – this Educational Congress is a perfect example – for an even higher level of collaboration than in the past. In this discussion, David will explore ways our collaboration can create not only a healthier, more robust profession, but could contribute to a more “just, verdant and peaceful world”.
