The Four Biggest Challenges Facing Massage Therapists

01

Occupational strain: is the most challenging issue Massage Therapists face.

According to a research study conducted by Dr. Wayne Albert PhD of the University of New Brunswick, 82% of Massage Therapists surveyed were experiencing occupational strain in their thumbs, wrists, shoulders, neck and back.

02
Burnout

Hundreds, if not thousands, of Massage Therapists leave the profession prematurely due to burnout and the inability to cope with the rigorous demands of the profession.

03
Client dissatisfaction

There are two complaints clients raise most often when they're dealing with body pain: the treatment is too light to help, or too deep and painful. Either way, they stop booking and look elsewhere.

04
Practice building

Massage Therapists struggle to get consistent results to build a following of loyal clients.

What these four challenges are costing you

When you're working in pain, you are not incentivized to work longer days and longer weeks. Occupational strain determines how many treatment hours you can perform in any given day and week, limiting your overall revenue potential.

Working in pain kills the spirit and takes away all the joy of clinical practice.

It is very challenging to work with clients that are experiencing a lot of discomfort during treatments — it takes its emotional toll on both you and the client.

It can be very challenging to get above average and consistent results, to develop a following of loyal clients — which can add internal pressure that's hard to deal with.

How I have solved all four of these challenges

01

Postural and Movement System

A postural and movement based system that, when practiced correctly, will reverse occupational strain in the neck, shoulders and back.

Tested and proven with 4,200 Massage Therapists over a 22 year run.

02

Six Dynamic Techniques

6 unique and innovative techniques for deep tissue therapy that are easy to use and are not pain producing for the Massage Therapist.

These techniques replace the use of thumbs and fingertips and simply will not break down because of their structural integrity.

03

Dynamic Gate Technique

To deal with treatments that are typically painful for the client, a technique called the Dynamic Gate Technique makes deep treatments significantly less painful for the client.

This technique has single-handedly built my entire practice over 32 years, and is a powerful way of distinguishing deep treatments from ones that were typically painful.

04

Body Blueprint

To get above average and consistent results, a body blueprint strategy allows Massage Therapists to know exactly where to put the optimal amount of pressure with the least amount of effort.

The Dynamic Gate Technique and the Body Blueprint together are the pathway to building an unstoppable following of die hard, raving clients.
