The Canadian Massage Conference is taking place in 1 days.

In my 12 year Massage Career I have attended it 6 times. 5 times as a participant and Once as a Speaker.

This year, I am speaking again but I am also attending.

There are still tickets left and I would like to see all of you there.

2. 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: In a recent study, patients given positive expectations before their treatment had better outcomes then those given negative or no expectations.
