Ron reached out to us because he wanted to talk assessments. We are big fans of assessments and love hearing about different approaches to assessment. Ron pointed out how Massage Therapists have a unique advantage in the assessments process based on the amount of time we have with our patients and clients and our exceptional palpation skills. As a RMT with many years of experience, and an educator, Ron feels that RMTs should really hone in on our fundamental skills and work to enhance those rather than adding modalities and we couldn’t agree more. His assessments approach is using simple principles like muscle testing and palpation that all RMTs are capable of to provide the best care to our patients and clients.
