Calling all articles and advertising bookings for Issue 3 2022

The focus for this issue is: Working with the Head and Neck. We will be looking at a range of topics related to this area - whiplash, concussion and traumatic brain injury, headaches, TMJD, safe practice, and more…

For this upcoming issue we are wanting content on these areas:

  • "Spotlight on Students & New Grads"; Are you a massage therapy student or new graduate and keen share your experience in print? This can be a great way of connecting with other members across the country, engage in some self-publicity and it is also a fantastic way to promote the benefits of doing formal training in massage therapy and what it can lead to. Contact the editors to request the profile template document.
  • "Who's Where": Have you changed location or set up a new practice - tell us about it in this section. Please send information with a picture of your premises.
  • "Reviews" sections: Have you read a really good book on a massage therapy or some other relevant health-related topic? Found a new information resource or tool? Been on an excellent evidence-based course which you would like to share with others? Used a really great product recently? Would like to tell others about by writing a review?
