August Focus - National Wellness Month
August is National Wellness Month and AMTA is celebrating by highlighting some resources and CE courses to help you emphasize the benefits of massage for overall wellness in your practice. An increasing number of clients view massage therapy as an integral part of their health care regime. In response, it’s essential that you understand when massage is indicated or contraindicated for specific pathologies.
