BAYLOR UNIVERSITY PUBLISHES LARGEST STUDY EVER ON MASSAGE THERAPY USE

July 2024

"Many people receive massage therapy and for many reasons. But according to a new study – the largest and most comprehensive ever conducted on the subject – the prevalence of visits to massage therapists is higher than one might have imagined and the reasons may be surprising."

“What our study shows is that it’s probably not helpful any longer to label massage as an ‘alternative’ therapy, with all of the marginality that the term conveys.”

“Licensed massage therapists ought to be respected as mainstream practitioners, whose profession provides a therapeutic approach not just to address pain and functional challenges but to foster wellness and overall well-being, physical and emotional.

Everyone can benefit from working with a skilled massage therapist. They’re the hidden gems in the healthcare system.” - Jeff Levin, Ph.D., M.P.H., University Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health. (Robert Rogers/Baylor University)

I’m on vacation! 🛫🏖️🥾💆🏻‍♀️🛬
I’m booked up the week I get back, and then I’m off to Brighton, England to get some craniosacral training. I’m booked up the week I get back from that too! You guys are awesome - thanks for keeping me busy! Stay tuned though, I’m still accepting new clients (for now) which means I may be adding days/times to my schedule.

I know it can be difficult booking with a massage therapist you don't know because we're each so different in approach and touch. To help get an idea of what I have to offer, and what your session could look like with me, go to YouTube and check out and . Both are wonderful massage educators, and I watch their videos to brush up on my techniques. I especially try to channel Ian (Massage Sloth) in his slow and deliberate myofascial approach!
