Our Clothes-On, No Oil and No Thumbs approach to Clinical or Medical Massage Therapy can enhance and extend your massage career.
Only around 20% of all Massage Therapists are men. Why? One reason; because sensitivity over sexuality in being naked on a massage table with a male massage therapist is overwhelmingly common, for both women and men. Get beyond that fear and the earnings barrier it creates by specializing in Medical Massage Therapy.
The value of the clothes-on approach is that it makes it more comfortable for the client in that they don’t have to undress to receive a treatment. It takes care of boundary issues.
It takes care of gender differences. It takes care of so many things in a clinical setting. It allows us to do our assessment procedures. It allows us to ask the client to stand up, walk around the table, and assess the progress of what you’ve been doing. It allows us to use the sidelying position, which has proven all-important in delivering high-quality clinical treatment.
I’ve spoken with so many experienced massage therapists whose bodies are wearing out. Their thumbs, their hands are not able to deliver the quality of treatment that they would like. And I have an answer for them.
The utilization of a clothes-on approach, incorporating the sidelying position and a tool like this Thumbsaver, has proven to extend the career of so many massage therapists.
So I say to you: save your thumbs and extend your career by incorporating the clothes-on and sidelying approach into your practice.
