Which of these scenarios most closely resembles you and your practice?

Hungry newcomer, recently graduated from school and working part time for an employer. You’re grinding day in and day out but can’t seem to get ahead. Your dream is to go out on your own, but you don’t know where to begin.

Wily solopreneur, with some success and some setbacks, running a practice for three years. You’ve hit a dry spell and you’re looking for retention tips and where to find prospective clients.

Efficient veteran, owning and operating a thriving business for 10 years. Your five-person team is near burnout, and you’re ready to hire two new employees. But after a recent poor hire—who almost ruined your reputation and business—you’re skittish and wonder how this person made it through the cracks of your stellar hiring process.

Good thing we’ve got answers for you.

Each issue of Massage & Bodywork magazine is like a buffet of information for self-development and practice proficiency. We pride ourselves in making a varied and challenging book that complements your current status, regardless of where you are, all while providing room for inspiration and evolution.

Maybe you’re a research fiend? Go to page 40. Integrative health-care advocate? Go to page 22. Energy worker? Go to page 80. And who are we kidding: We know you love all things technique—this book is peppered with hands-on advice from the best names in the biz.

We’ve known for a long time that content is king in your world. And we’ve learned that we can’t be there for you only in print (you love to get your content through a variety of mediums). That’s why over the years, our ABMP Communications Department has expanded to include webinars and continuing education, blogs and news, video for deeper demonstration, and podcasts to highlight interviews with peak performers. 

We do this to meet you where you are, no matter where that is. Your life is varied, your practice is your pulse. We hope you find something you love inside this print publication and throughout the many association offerings we produce.
