BAYLOR UNIVERSITY PUBLISHES LARGEST STUDY EVER ON MASSAGE THERAPY USE

July 2024

"Many people receive massage therapy and for many reasons. But according to a new study – the largest and most comprehensive ever conducted on the subject – the prevalence of visits to massage therapists is higher than one might have imagined and the reasons may be surprising."

“What our study shows is that it’s probably not helpful any longer to label massage as an ‘alternative’ therapy, with all of the marginality that the term conveys.”

“Licensed massage therapists ought to be respected as mainstream practitioners, whose profession provides a therapeutic approach not just to address pain and functional challenges but to foster wellness and overall well-being, physical and emotional.

Everyone can benefit from working with a skilled massage therapist. They’re the hidden gems in the healthcare system.” - Jeff Levin, Ph.D., M.P.H., University Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health. (Robert Rogers/Baylor University)

Be aware...

We love essential oils because they offer a natural way to support health and well-being. But if your oils aren’t pure, they can have the opposite effect.

Impure oils can cause issues like sensitization, irritation, and even allergies.

Unfortunately, it’s common for people to “cut” or dilute their oils with synthetic ingredients. (This is called “adulterating” the oils.)

That’s why buying from essential oil companies that practice 100% transparency is . . . well . . . essential!

In our new blog "How to Know if Your Essential Oils are Pure" we've listed 3 crucial signs that an essential oil company is transparent and their oils are pure.

Whether you're new to essential oils or a certified professional, these are 3 things to keep in mind when making an essential oil purchase.
