From the MASSAGE Magazine article, "Simple Self-Care Strategies Promote Career Longevity," by Robert E. McAtee, in the March 2010 issue. Article summary: Because massage is physically demanding, involves repetitive movement, and tends to place biomechanical strain on the practitioner, self-care is critical to maintaining a sustainable long-term practice.
