Websites are now really the foundation of a successful massage business. It is important to understand the process so that you can do it yourself or hire someone to do it right for you. A website should be all about getting results!

to set up wordpress all you need to do is find the fantastico installer and it installs it automatically for you... The only reason you would be looking for ftp with wordpress if if you are installing it yourself which is the old way of doing it.…

Hmm. We've been divvying up the work. I've been focusing on the social media networking end of things, and my partner has been working on building the site. She's old school (html), so maybe she believes we need it. I do know that when I spoke with…

Sorry -don't know what you are talking about really. You don't need ftp with wordpress so not sure what it has to do with that. Why do you need it? Julie

We're having a specific issue with building our WordPress site, which we're hosting through godaddy.com. My partner has been looking in vain for the button which is supposed to activate the ftp site. Any insights? She's been using a tutorial, and th…

Hurt really needs to be defined.... I love deep tissue because i have such bad scoliosis and can't actually feel my back muscles sometimes. I need really deep work to start waking them up. People can do the deepest work on me and it doesn't hurt on…

It really depends on what you are talking about. Many say they can't afford massage yet they have nice cars and take nice vacations. If they really believed in massage they would put it into their spending plans. Then there are those that truly can…

Ok so I sort of get the idea of research but I am research illiterate!

From my last post that created quite a stir, I have a new concept of research and the importance of it but now I see that my last post was more that I was and still am research illiterate! I was able to attend a great conference here in Seattle (OK I couldn't not go since it was a block away from my office) put on by the Massage Therapy Foundation called Highlighting
Massage Therapy in Complementary and Int… Continue

I'm sorry, I just don't get research....

I started another blog post on the future of the massage profession and happened to mention research. It turned into a discussion on research. I decided to start a new blog post.

I'm sorry, I just don't get research. I'm not interested in it really even though I do have more of a science background than most massage therapists (AA degree in Biology). I am interested enough that I do keep trying to… Continue

The future of the massage profession??

I sometimes wonder about the future of the massage profession and where it might be in another 20 years. I know when I first started in 1987 with my little 250 hours of training, I would have never thought I'd last this long. Back then there was no such thing as getting a job in massage - a real employee job. Any job back then was an independent contractor. My rent was $100 in my first office space in a gym and that was split between 2 people!

I think the biggest change was in having mo… Continue

Becoming Friends with clients...

I have been having some really great discussions on here and on Facebook and my websites about the therapeutic relationship and what happens when you become friends with clients or engage in other dual relationships with them -nothing illegal like dating clients or sex of course but trading services like accounting or tax help and seeing clients socially.

I never was taught anything about this and in fact when I started out 22 years ago, massage was more of a lifestyle choice than anything and… Continue

CE -Because you want to take them or because you have to take them?

I have been doing some research on CE and am looking for info on why you take CE classes. I have a quick survey on my website that would help in giving me some info for my next online project - a CE Resource Center.

CE is needed in almost every state I think. The thing is that many take ce classes only because they have to and not because they want to improve their business. People find themselves taking c… Continue
