Learning and
writing about
new bodywork
modalities
makes every
day interesting
for ABMP's
Brandon
Twyford, and
chasing after
his two young
children keeps him busy. He still fi nds
time to read, cook, and go camping.
contributors
David M.
Lobenstine
really likes
breathing—when
he's massaging
and the rest of
the time, too.
And he loves
that his clients,
and especially
his 7-year-
old, remind him every day that a
slow, easy breath makes pretty
much everything better.
