“input from the profession” is overused and a seemingly oxymoron. Over the past several years, it is my feeling that NCB was: a) the 800 lb. gorilla b) in dire need of improving listening skills c) a ship with a broken rudder d) all of the above. A dozen or more years ago when I did the "Nationals", the premise was to have the license/credentials to practice seamlessly across the US. Not so anymore as more and more states have their own massage boards and/or now recognize the "new kid on the block". Thanks Laura and let it be known that my voice wasn't heard by the NCB either.
