Helping Massage Therapists Build a Business after Massage School
Diabetes is a disease which lessons the body's ability to metabolize carbohydrates, which results from inadequate production of insulin. This substance is necessary to convert our food into energy because it transfers the glucose from the bloodstream to the cells.
The main symptom of this disease is high blood sugar. Other symptoms might include frequent urination, excessive thirst and fatigue.
Treatment will either be insulin injections for Type 1 or oral medications for Type 2.
A few drops of a high quality Melissa essential oil is also a great way to naturally lower blood sugar levels. Just add a drop or two in a glass of water each day. Amazing...God has given us healing solutions...
Benefits of Massage
According to several research studies, and as reported in the October 2001 issue of Diabetes Spectrum, massage therapy may affect insulin absorption, blood glucose levels, and diabetic neuropathy in a positive way.
As more positive research is reported as to the benefits of massage for diabetics, these are important benefits for everyone who receives massage...but especially for diabetics:
Cost
Sessions for diabetic massage treatment can last 30-90 minutes and cost $30-$150, not usually any more than a regular massage therapy session.
Always see your physician on a regular basis to monitor your high blood sugar and also to make sure that massage therapy is safe for you.
Western medicine is usually focused on medical treatment of disease and illness, whereas energy treatments focus on the holistic mind, body, and spirit connections.
Energy healing may actually be looked at one day soon as as an "accepted" alternative therapy, in conjunction with standard medical therapies.
Energy healing therapies, like Therapeutic Touch (TT), Reiki, massage, and acupressure, have certainly been studied more closely over the last 10 years as alternative treatment options for varies illnesses. But, can they really help restore normal blood glucose levels?
This DVD, Treating Diabetics by Foot Massage helps you learn great foot massage techniques for diabetic patients, how to provide nerve stimulation with massage, and how to ease neuropathy symptoms.
As with any alternative treatment options, always discuss massage therapy with your primary care physician to make sure it is safe for you or your family/friends with diabetes.

About Me
A few things about me and the creation of Massage Education Guide....
After 20 years of practicing massage, I decided to create an online resource for those who want to learn about what to do after massage school....how to build a business from scratch, how to create a website that works for your business, how to create social media posts to engage clients, how to create Facebook Ads, effective SEO practices, and so much more.
I have spent thousands of dollars on advertising my business in newspapers, only to get a few clients, that may or may not return and become a regular customer, and it almost drained me financially.
Finding a way to build my business online for free became my only goal, and I spent many hours studying how folks grow a business with little-to-no money through social media.
Now, because of all I went through to grow my business, I teach the benefits of building an online space, easy SEO and social media tips, and how sales funnels are now the way to make an additional online income, and make life so much better!
What's my passion? Massage therapy always and forever is my love, but helping people learn how to grow an online business is a very close second!
So, let's build your business, your dream, and grow together!
