17: Who Charts Our Path?

Manual therapy and massage practitioners are voracious consumers of professional continuing education. Who should be deciding what they learn? 

In this episode,  

• What implications does the “medically necessary” discussion have on massage and bodywork education, CE, and credentialing? 
• Why don’t Rolfers™ think they’re doing massage, anyway? 
• What is the post-COVID roadmap for professional continuing education? 

In the Thinking Practitioner series, join two of the leading educators in manual therapy, bodywork, and massage therapy, as they delve into the most intriguing issues, questions, research, and client conditions that hands-on practitioners face. Stimulate your thinking with imaginative conversations, tips, and interviews related to the somatic arts and sciences, with Whitney Lowe and Til Luchau.
