Adam Fluke is a currently practicing massage therapist and evangalist for idependent massage therapists.
"I hope to create a community of massage therapists genuinely supporting each other in creating a practice that they own. I believe every massage therapist is a business unto themselves! Simply put, every massage therapist, even if they work for someone else, is a producer of massage. The question we need to be asking ourselves is, are we willing to pay 70% of our income for a room, cheap lotion, and someone to answer the phone."

Here is the simplest truth I can come up with, when it comes to ranking in google/bing, independent massage therapists need all the help they can get.

What they should have is a massage organization that supports them, but this community does not.Massage and Bodywork Professionals uses only no-follow links, so if you think you are getting any help to your website…See More
