"All Islands Meet Underwater"
Since opening the doors of BodyWork Associates, Doug
Nelson and Jennifer Crozier have helped countless
individuals achieve their career and lifelong dreams. But
how did it start and what did it take to open a successful
practice? Kristin and Darren are joined by Doug and
Jennifer to discuss why opening a massage therapy clinic is
a viable career path, how community relations are the best
marketing strategy, and why mentorship helps in building
strong foundations.

Federal Rules Could
Impact Schools
Across the Country
The US Department of Education
(USDOE) proposed rules in May
that would allegedly protect
students against unmanageable
debt by terminating access to
federal financial aid for career
training programs. While protecting
students from debt burdens seems
like a welcome idea, the USDOE's
debt-to-earnings ratio doesn't
accurately interpret massage
professionals' income—as it varies
widely per person—and the
rules as they are currently written
would effectively prevent schools
from offering financial aid. ABMP
reminds therapists and students of
the importance of advocating for
the massage therapy profession,
which includes speaking out when
the data doesn't paint the full
picture.
