The Endocannabinoid System was only discovered in the 1990s. Which means most healthcare education still hasn’t caught up. But research now shows the ECS plays a role in regulating: • inflammation • pain signaling • mood and stress response • immune activity • metabolic balance In my upcoming CBD for Clinical Therapists, we explore how this system fits into modern wellness and integrative health practice. Early registration includes a signed copy of my book Beyond the Buzz. Info here: www.beyondthebuzz.or g/courses-events No prior cannabinoid education is required.

What is the most positive memorable massage experience you've had- either as a therapist or a client?

A casual "zoom-like" meetup, right here on Skool to collaborate, share ideas troubleshoot any issues and chat about industry related topics over a hot beverage. (No judgment if you prefer iced coffee 😜) Likely will be on a Friday or Saturday morning (8 or 9) and the goal is to meetup 1 or 2 times a month. Input is greatly appreciated!

Memberships (monthly, subscription based), packages (pre-selling multiple sessions at a “bulk discount”), do you or don’t you charge for “add ons” or specific techniques, do you bill insurance? What are your session lengths? How much of a break do you want in between clients? Let's discuss, but first, any questions regarding this topic?

Good morning! We discussed in class that pricing your services appropriately, not only can help prevent burnout but also helps uphold an industry standard. As licensed massage therapists, we need to be valuing the service we provide to clients - We are offering time, energy, technique, knowledge, experience, compassion, and a therapeutic ambiance. I added a document to the Beyond the Basics course (under the classroom tab) that dives into how to price your services and what the averages are, both nationally and locally for North Idaho and Eastern Washington. How much do you charge? How do you feel about this rate?
