1.1.1
Please help me with some
research that will take you a relatively small amount of your time and provide
our profession with lots of data to counterweight to the notion that massage
treatment is palliative without curative value. I’ve included some links below
to help explain the project. Your help is much appreciated. If you know of
someone else who would be interested in these projects. Tell A Friend
