Massage Therapist Central Podcast New Zealands' Premier Massage Therapist & Aromatherapy Practitioner Podcast

I recently saw a quote on Twitter which I quite liked

“Be a more effective therapist, don’t study more anatomy and more techniques! Study research and it’s results. Study anatomy to apply research”

It’s here, the new Featured segment is underway. This week we discuss the Alexander Technique.
