  • Episode 057: Even More Stuff They Never Told You About in Massage School Pt 3
    Jun 25 2024
    In this extended and final episode in this series, Jackie and David chat about even more stuff that they never told you about in massage school. Do you need a mentor and how to choose one? How much can you expect to be paid as an employee? What's "the going rate" for rental and profit share and is it as good a deal as it sounds (spoiler alert, no it isn't)? How often do you stop and listen to what your client is actually trying to tell you? Are you charging what you are worth, or are you being greedy? We might not be registered health professionals but we sure are regulated! (David might have some big feelings on this) -==>Check out this 60 minutes investigation into Cosmetic Surgery in Australia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKlQu2oGeh0 Can I massage in the first trimester of pregnancy? Can I massage a person who has a cancer diagnosis? Does massage detoxify the body?

  • Episode 056: More Stuff They Never Told You About in Massage School Pt 2
    Jun 18 2024

    What would you do if someone "raised a flag pole"?

    Do you know how to drape to work on someone's glutes without pulling their pants all the way down?

    Do you know how to use your body weight to generate pressure and do you massage with just your hands or are you also making good use of broad forearms?

    Ever been asked to commit health fund fraud?

    And just what do you say if someone calls you a masseuse?

    Jackie and David talk about all these things and more in this listener requested episode - with more stuff that they never told you about in massage school.

    May 21 2024
    Recorded at the Massage and Myotherapy Australia 2024 Conference in Tweed Heads, David and Jackie chat with Ann Davey (CEO) and Selena Hagen (Vice President) from Massage and Myotherapy Australia. Have you ever wondered what your Association does for you? Are you even a member of one? Do you ever question why you are a member at all? Ann and Selena take us on a journey of the 21 year history of Massage and Myotherapy Australia, its role in advocating to the Australian government about key issues affecting the industry and members, and also some of the initiatives. The association has launched scholarships, supported new research, reviewed the national training packages, partnered with University of Technology Sydney, collaborated with super peak associations, all while promoting the advancement and legitimacy of massage therapies and myotherapy in Australia. It's a lot! Do you have a burning question for the Association that you want to be answered? Send them an email: info@massagemyotherapy.com.au Looking for more information about the certification process? Check out the website link here. The best part is, that any massage therapist in Australia can join! You can find the Massage and Myotherapy Australia website here.

  • Episode 052: Why You Should Be Using E-mails To Stay Connected With Your Clients
    May 8 2024

    Join David as he talks about why you should use email to connect with your clients, what not to do and what he loves to read in an e-news. Sending regular e-mails to your clients doesn't have to be hard, long or fancy, and it especially shouldn't feel dirty. But if you want to cut through the crap already in their inbox you need to give your clients a reason to open your news. Swap the idea of selling for stories. A glimpse of you that your clients can connect with. Like a letter from an old friend. Treat every E-news like it has the potential to go beyond its recipient - because often they do!

  • Episode 050: Amy Tyler - A Career in Oncology Massage
    Apr 29 2024

    Join Jackie as she chats with Amy Tyler of Institute of Oncology Massage. With over two decades in remedial therapy, Amy talks about how massage can provide comfort and aids recovery for cancer survivors.

    Amy also shares her personal journey having recovered from a benign brain tumour herself, enhancing her empathy and understanding towards patient care. She advocates for all therapists to learn oncology massage due to its growing necessity and explains that it's more about adapting to individual needs rather than applying a specific technique. Training is essential, as many cancer patients have complex health issues requiring knowledgeable care. Despite the emotional challenges, Amy finds profound fulfilment in her work and encourages ongoing education within the therapeutic community to better serve those affected by cancer.

    You can find the Institute of Oncology Massage website and courses here.
