Manual Therapy Return to Work: A Thought Experiment: Planning in the Age of COVID-19

The content presented is intended for the manual-therapy and bodywork communities (massage therapists acupuncturists rolfers somatic therapists and educators physical therapists chiropractors neuromuscular therapists reiki masters reflexologists etc.) to promote thought and action toward readying for your return to work in a pre-vaccine era of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Our intention is to offer a thought-provoking tool for practitioners. Completion of this thought experiment does not supersede any local state or national mandates regarding when you may resume manual therapies.These are the essential driving questions that spawned this thought experiment: What do I need to know?How am I going to do this?How do I get through this?What do I need?Where do I start?
