Foundation
Since
I began my massage career in 1981, my journey in life
has included my commitment, dedication and compassion to
advance the science, art and practice of massage
therapy. I volunteer for the Foundation because I
believe that results of research on massage and bodywork
will advance our profession and provide evidence of our
efficacy.
