9/25 is a good day to remind you that Dolly Parton’s legendary “9 to 5” could help you save a life with Hands-Only CPR.

If you see a teen or adult collapse, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest.

Massage therapy is healthcare - but sexual health is still often treated as stigmatized or off limits for us to discuss. End the stigma! Providing a safe space and giving clients referrals to other safe healthcare providers when requested is our responsibility. Take note of available resources for vulnerable people in your community, and be ready to direct people to those resources.

Congratulations to Cal Cates, recipient of the 2026 Massage Therapy Foundation Humanitarian Award! The award is reserved for individuals who have demonstrated extraordinary, selfless dedication to improving the lives of others through massage therapy.
Cal has dedicated their career to advocacy in healthcare, massage therapy as social justice, and to revolutionizing education for healthcare providers. MTF is proud to celebrate Cal’s tireless efforts and spirit of compassionate service. Read the press release: https://bit.ly/4yqHtke

She unpacks what we need to know about EDS and bodywork, what we can do that's meaningfully helpful, and why early mistakes are worth embracing.

Our team had a great time at the Laurel Dace Day Race and Conservation Celebration. Amy’s husband offered massage and Amy and Kailee gave out lavender lemonades to help raise money for the cause!

We raised an additional $75 for conservation efforts at Laurel Dace Day! Thank you to everyone who stopped by, as well as the fantastic volunteer crew for the event!
