We want to get to know you better and we appreciate you being here!

What has been the most valuable resource to you and why? Or what resource would you recommend to someone trying to learn or improve? I've made the realization recently that not everyone uses the same resources in their learning journey.🤦‍♀️ Duh. Not my brightest moment I know. 💡But I also realized that this provides an opportunity for us to work together. Share your valuable resources! Textbooks, classes, groups, research papers, etc. So far, mine is Tappan's Handbook for Massage Therapy. Such a great guide and resource. My favorite part is the detailed illustrations of the techniques taught.

Welcome to our community! We are excited to have you here and we want to learn with you!

I'm Brittainy, and I'm a Licensed Massage Therapist. I'm from Arizona and I live there now but have lived in several different states. I am self- employed in my massage business and I focus on therapeutic massage. I have done work with chiropractors and volunteered work for several months at a Physical Therapist business while I was in school which has definitely benefited my current practice. I also enjoy doing hot stone, sports massage and incorporating lots of different styles and techniques into massage if I feel they'll benefit my clients. I'm also a mother with 2 kids so I don't get to do as much massage as I'd like but also enjoy the time I have with my girls. What I'm hoping to get out of the community is just that: community. A place to talk to people who understand what I know and have similar interests. And I'm really really hoping to learn a lot.
