THE ABMP PODCAST
Using COVID-19 best practice recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC); the World Health Organization (WHO); guidance from other
health-care sectors; findings from the limited and preliminary research on the virus; and
the most accurate updates we could gather from the quickly evolving science, ABMP has
compiled this document of practice protocols that seem most appropriate for practitioners
who are choosing to move forward with reopening their businesses. This document does
not represent a recommendation from ABMP for reopening your practice, but rather
gives our best guidance for when that time comes.
THOUGHTS ON THE NOVEL
CORONAVIRUS AND YOUR
PRACTICE FROM ABMP
CHAIRMAN BOB BENSON
Customers everywhere are anxious
to get back to complementary health-
care routines. Their resolution will
be varied, from itching to book
an appointment to dramatically
limiting the amount of close
human contact until a vaccine is
developed and widely administered.
USE OF PERSONAL
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
FOR MASSAGE THERAPISTS
The use of PPE will be central to
moving forward and reopening
your practice when the time
comes. This blog collects and
condenses information about PPE
from the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention.
SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT
TO SHARE WITH CLIENTS
DURING COVID-19
We all know times are strange
and unfamiliar right now, and
we need each other. Your clients
look to you for your touch; now
they can look to you for positivity,
education, and content.

The ABMP Podcast launched with its signature series
"Conversations in Quarantine." The goal of this series
is to speak with luminaries and experts in and around
the massage profession; to talk about the effects of
COVID-19 on bodywork practitioners—the fears, the
frustrations; and, more importantly, to discuss next
steps toward safely reopening our doors when the time
is right. To date, there are nine episodes, each covering
a slightly different angle in how to move forward.
