Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail. -Bruce Lee

Should I take some ADVIL, is a common question I receive. https://www.amymyersmd.com/article/nsaids-harm-gut/

Trust and vulnerability, these are two elements of my work as LMT that have been on my mind periodically throughout this pandemic. I want to take a moment to recognize and appreciate this, for all my clients. In times of good health, both personally and as a society, there is a lot of trust and willingness to be vulnerable that is given to me, on multiple levels. When I came back to work in June, after being close for 3.5 months, I wasn't sure what to expect, in terms of ho...w people were going to feel about getting a massage. I anticipated the understandable apprehension some or many people may have. To my surprise, my practice has continued to thrive. Today I received my 2nd vaccination shot. I have chose to receive the vaccination, no only for my personal health, but for yours as well. I am humbled and tremendously grateful for your trust throughout this pandemic, and always. There are some understandable misunderstandings as to what the vaccine actually does. Even though I have been vaccinated, we will continue to follow the same protocols of mask wearing, decontamination and monitoring for symptoms. Per the FDA: "WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE MODERNA COVID-19 VACCINE? In an ongoing clinical trial, the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine has been shown to prevent COVID-19 following 2 doses given 1 month apart. The duration of protection against COVID-19 is currently unknown." https://www.fda.gov/media/144638/download

Taking a moment to again highlight my wife and The Harkness Center for Dance Injuries. Sarah continues to be my greatest inspiration. Her passion for knowledge, growth as a clinician, and dedication to her patients and contribution to the field of Physical Therapy, inspires me to grow as a LMT.
