The Pain-Free Massage Therapist

About this book

What happens when you massage in pain? You avoid deep tissue clients and dream about being the person on the massage table. You also earn less money than you should, because pain limits the number of clients you can see in a day/week/month.Continue to massage in pain and you soon realize that pain doesn't limit itself to your massage room; it seeps into your life. You may stop doing some of your favorite activities because those activities exacerbate your pain. Finally, in the worst-case scenario, your life becomes a constant battle to manage your pain so you can work...in pain.I get it.Pain limited me for the first half of my almost 30-year massage career. Eventually, when my body said that enough was enough, I had to make a decision-quit massage or fix the pain.I chose the latter.In this book, I share the essential strategies and techniques that have made me a pain-free, durable and productive massage therapist. I also include links to free, instructional videos. If you put in the work, you should get results quickly, whether you're new to massage or a seasoned practitioner like me.If you're ready to jettison your pain, increase your earning potential, and love your work again, this book can help.
