A MASSAGE THERAPIST'S GUIDE TO COVID-19
COVID-19 presents unprecedented challenges to the massage therapy
profession. In this live webinar, pathology expert Ruth Werner focuses
on what we currently understand about COVID-19, including the
pathophysiology, communicability, and the many complications of this
infection. She discusses how to make safe, effective, evidence-informed
decisions, shares screening suggestions for safety, and fields questions
from the audience of the live event. This video recording of the live
presentation from August 14, 2020, is available for everyone in the
massage profession to view.
EPISODE 29—ASK ABMP: YOUR QUESTIONS
ON TOPICS FROM COVID-19 TO BODY

Experts in the massage and bodywork field answer your
most pressing questions, from COVID-19 protocols and
precautions to body mechanics, intake forms, and more.
EPISODE 32—LIPEDEMA—"I HAVE
A CLIENT WHO . . ." PATHOLOGY
CONVERSATIONS WITH RUTH WERNER
In this episode, a client has lipedema: a painful condition
with enlarged fat cells that won't ever shrink or go away
by themselves—and it's probably going to get worse.
It turns out that massage therapy could be helpful,
with the right kind of education and background.
ANIMAL MASSAGE DURING THE

pandemic, and may have even gotten an
unforeseen boost from our altered reality.
That segment is the lesser known but ever-
growing market for animal massage.
DILIGENCE (STILL) REQUIRED:
REOPENING DOESN'T
MEAN LOWER RISKS
ABMP connected with epidemiologist
Tessa Crume, PhD, to get her expert
advice on this question: As schools
and businesses reopen, what would
you tell people about letting down
their guard relative to COVID-19?
RISKY BUSINESS: FROM DAILY
PRACTICE TO COVID-19
These days, MTs are thinking a lot
about risk—the risks of working or
not, and, of course, the range of risks
within client presentations. As MTs,
we never want to come from a place of
fear, but a little healthy concern can help
when it comes to risk consideration.
