2 Massage Therapists and a Microphone

Ed has been in practice for over 30 years working at the same clinic with high level athletes and loving every minute of it. Recently a realization about his own ability to keep working at this level inspired him to retire from the place he has called home for decades. Still treating in some capacity in his private practice, Ed is exploring options in his new retirement of what his next chapter will look like. With all of his knowledge and experience, Ed is considering teaching in some capacity and we are here for it. The new generation of therapists could benefit greatly from a workshop with this veteran therapist and we hope to see more from him in the near future.2rmtsandamic.com

Christine is a massage therapist and energy worker who is coming in strong with a message to everyone. Be so unbothered about other people’s opinions of yourselves so you can show up authentically and be fully yourself in every situation. Working in healthcare can make us feel like we have a certain way we must present ourselves to the world. It’s part of why Christine hasn’t always talked about the energy side of her work even though it’s part of who she is and makes her happy to offer this to her clients. We discussed cancel culture, having different opinions, and some tips from Christine on how we can feel more comfortable just being us.2rmtsandamic.com

She has been a presenter at LymphyCon, the Canadian Massage Conference, and now she’s here to do some myth busting and really help us to understand what lymphatic therapy can do.
