Three in one theory:
In all of our trainings and treatments we consider the three levels or aspects of the body - structural, functional, and energetic/informational. All three levels are related and integrated, with symptoms appearing on one level pointing to issues and even opportunities for treatment on another. There are so many great techniques that look through the lens of one level or another - we like to take an integrative approach where anything goes and everything can work together.
You have a unique opportunity with your clients.
Massage therapists (and other complimentary and alternative medicine practitioners) get to spend a really long time with their clients relative to doctors and other medical professionals. You have an opportunity to have an incredible positive impact with your clients - helping them understand how their bodies work and what it could look like for them to move towards greater health. We get to actually empower people towards healthy living and being instead of being limited to passing out pills or offering surgery. It's a good business to be in; people need what you have to offer; let's make the most of it.
