This entry will be about jaw pain and ways massage therapy can help combat it. A recent article [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was writing a couple of weeks ago about transference, professional and personal boundaries being crossed in the client-therapist relationship (click here to read the entry)
Again, it is very easy for transference to take place, partly because of the nature of massage therapy (therapists are the experts, client undress for them, and receive therapeutic touch [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Any professional massage therapist will tell you that boundaries are important things for a therapist to establish and maintain. My last two entries have focused on why these boundaries (professional, legal, and personal) are important. Today, I want to focus on some specific examples of personal boundaries being crossed; next week I will offer some [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Boundaries were the topic of my last entry, specifically professional boundaries that therapists must be clear and open about in order to maintain an honest and professional (and legal) practice.
Today I want to continue discussing boundaries, but this time focus on the legal and personal boundaries of massage therapy.
Legal boundaries are very much locked up with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In my last entry I wrote about the important ethic that most professional massage therapists follow, consent. In today&#8217;s entry I want to talk about another ethic that is just as important, boundaries.
Boundaries:
Boundaries are extremely important to be clear about, because many boundaries are personal, coming from our collective experiences. Therefore, each massage therapist may [...]]]></description>
