24.01.2022 In Denmark, it's a legal requirement to have an automatic brushing machine installed in dairy farms - because cows like massages so much.

19.01.2022 As much as I hate to do it, massage services will be suspended for at least the next fortnight. I will post again with any updates or changes to this. Be well, people! Don’t touch anyone unless you have to. Wash your hands. Have a read of this article! Claire.

17.01.2022 Humans are growing horns....

16.01.2022 AMT has just advised practising members to shut down all client contact immediately. This is an unprecedented time in the history of AMT and the massage therapy... profession in Australia. We have not been in the position of making a decision of such scale and importance at any other time in the past 53 years. At this stage we are advising that members cease treating clients for an initial period of 2 weeks but we will issue updated advice as soon as we can. This is not a recommendation made in panic. It is based on an informed assessment of the available recommendations, guidelines and emerging data on diagnosed cases of COVID19 in Australia. It is a necessary and deeply reluctant acknowledgement that the situation is escalating and massage therapists are now front line vectors for transmission. AMT has been monitoring the news closely over the weekend. Yesterday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced a range of updated measures including more stringent pre-emptive requirements for social distancing. Since it is impossible for massage therapists to socially distance in the course of their job, AMT sees no option but to urge members to notify their clients immediately that it is not possible or feasible to carry out treatment in light of the new current Department of Health social distancing guidelines. Shut down of massage therapy practices is, in fact, the only way to fully comply with the new guidelines announced yesterday. Over the past two days, the number of diagnosed cases of COVID19 leapt alarmingly. This jump in diagnosed cases means that the number of undiagnosed community infections is at a critical tipping point in Australia. Australia is following the same trajectory as countries across Europe and the Americas. Our current diagnosed cases are at the same point as Italy just over 2 weeks ago. Massage therapists have a significant role to play in managing the spread of the virus due to the proximity that the job requires. To quote the words of a British Professor of infectious disease modelling (Graham Medley): So most people have a fear of acquiring the virus. I think a good way of doing it is to imagine that you do have the virus and change your behaviour so you are not transmitting it. Don’t think about changing your behaviour so you won’t get it; think about changing your behaviour so you won’t give it to somebody else. As health practitioners, massage therapists have a duty of care in helping to stem the spread of the virus. Taking this responsibility seriously and making tough decisions shows our solidarity and support for front line primary health carers who will have far tougher decisions than us to make in the coming weeks. AMT is painfully and sorrowfully aware of the financial ramifications of this advice. We trust that you, the massage going public, will thank your massage therapist for their moral courage at this extraordinary time. Social isolation is not an act of fear - it's an act of love Dr Dan Suan Yours sincerely, AMT

13.01.2022 How can a herniated disc be the cause of pain in your fingertips and toes?

12.01.2022 Massage therapists around Australia are pressuring their MPs and legislators to extend the new round of Government stimulus to include self-employed health prac...titioners. Massage therapists take their responsibilities as healthcare providers very seriously. They need support and assistance during a shut down period.
