Hello So this page like all my social media posts are thought provoking…
I am David Ralston LMT, bodyworker since 1999. We do things a little different being that we don't have to answer to corporate America or Insurance telling us how to do things and how to help you with your muscle issues. You are never asked for more money, Flat fee thats it. I use tools whi

Many times when you see things displayed you assume they must be accurate, legitimate, worth the price of the service you are purchasing. Once again don’t believe everything you see. Do you really think I’m going 55 mph but the sign says I am.

Many will come and tell you they have the answers perhaps they will shine in front of your eyes a fancy title aka a certification I'm a level 3 or a college degree such as PhD or a book they took time to write or possibly give themself a nice title like CEO or founder of company.
I'm a Master or expert heck they may even have a following of 500,000 people on social media. Yet the question to ask is why do you believe them? Their price is higher, they are in a super big office? Does this mean success... Discern, people and don't assume the second one tries to talk over your head with big flashy words in which you have no knowledge of what they mean, that this person is smarter than you.

Study finds limited evidence for massage therapy's effectiveness in pain relief 08/16/2024

Imagine that a Doctor writing an article. So have you yourself ever experienced MASSAGE? No
We just wanted to sabotage the competition. Come on now take pills get on the path...

Study finds limited evidence for massage therapy's effectiveness in pain relief A study in JAMA Network Open reviews evidence on massage therapy's effectiveness in relieving pain, finding moderate certainty for some conditions but overall low certainty for most.

Imagine you’re going to get an hour massage if you went for a normal massage & it wasn’t deep enough. 😡You would have to pay $20 more and ask for a deep tissue massage which MAY be a little bit more pressure for $20 extra. So consider going to somebody who doesn’t gouge you and gives you what you’re looking for pressure wise not trying to make a extra buck off the upgrade game. Oh, and by the way, the ion foot detox that’s a scam. It’s been proven to be a scam by scientists in videos on YouTube.

Could anybody tell me how is it? A massage therapist can be on this platform learning HVLA thrusting techniques… This is a technique that has been used by osteopathic doctors chiropractors, and some PTs.
So now for just a little over 500 bucks you can attend a continuing education course that teaches you how to release air in joints. Imagine trying to explain that if the person gets injured.

Can You Palpate The Psoas Muscle?! Expert Physio Reviews 08/11/2024

Im in agreement with this video I think about 6 months back I was asked by a pro baseball player who came to me to do what his other therapist does to release his psoas . Im thinking it would have been great for him to see this video. We all work areas differently and some kind of skip over areas we know little about. Hitting this from the front is a no go for me.

What is CCI (Craniocervical Instability)? 08/03/2024

Explained very well, a weakness in ligaments is what causes things to move ever so slightly. Yet many orthopedic surgeon offices are busy doing surgery on backs and PT's doing exercises to strengthen muscles and chiropractors doing HVLA thrusts including popping and cracking nitrogen buildup within the joint for the pain that builds up within the back. Ever seen the immense amount of popularity of the Chiro's that build full channels on YouTube based alone on just cracking backs. Why is it so few people talk about ligament stability? Why is it high grade prolo therapy is not talked about to help with stability issues.
If I may say muscle work is not looked at with much respect either we are typically not covered by insurance companies are we? Do doctors refer you as a massage therapist? Please enlighten me........ You tap out your insurance card go to a doctor whom gives you pain blockers or meds than to a PT to strengthen the muscles that may be weak than to the orthopedic surgeon so they can cut. Now you have more permanent issues so you go to a Chiro and they can crack and pop your excess air in the joints. Shockingly it's all covered under insurance. Yet do you ever go to the massage therapist to deal with muscles? What about the MD who deals with ligaments to strengthen the lack of stability going on? Why is the system the way it is? You do want what's best for all of us don't you?

Many people will think differently on this topic. Because you want to scream or get frustrated with the situations in the world that are presently going on or you feel you want to unload all your inner anger from years of abuse while on the table should we allow you?You must understand there is a time and a place for everything and some people may be willing to deal with the baggage and issues you came in with. However, is it really my job, to listen to your meltdown, your rant, your feelings …

Well look a new company now we can dig up some dirt on them. Don’t eat with emotions folks. What does this have to do with massage? Your health is everything what you put in your body determines your health.

Don’t get butt hurt just realize some of the stuff you see everybody else doing isn’t always healthy, every night you pass their drive-in. Their window seems to be full.

Perhaps one day somebody can explain to me what this Russian chiropractor is doing, punching every patient in the thoracic one level after popping and cracking them on YouTube… Could it possibly be for clicks and views?

Sometimes people don’t see it, but doing the same things over and over and over lead to the same results over and over and over. What do you think could possibly help with this hamster wheel mentality?

Do you think the constant repetition of throwing a ball this hard with rapid deceleration in the arm could lead to a problem? Just like the rapid deceleration of a golfer.

Amazing the experts we have these days online sharing their infinite wisdom freely for all to see on social media. I truly had to step back from teaching as I am kind of stumped at how so many can fall for the nonsense that is being delivered these days as education. The thing that is ridiculous to me is these are the same people who have packed classes, the more way out there the more it fills chairs and followers to the social media pages. Kind of makes as much sense as the recent debate for President.
The reality is this person could have a lot more going on with the neck. People don't buy into the belief that because some smooth talking sales person whom looks rich and offers a lot of certificates has all the knowledge and wisdom.
