As we step into a new year, I wanted to begin with a conversation that feels grounding, honest, and deeply supportive of the long road we walk as massage therapists.
In this episode of the Massage Business Success Podcast, I sit down with Lauriann Greene — author of Save Your Hands and one of the earliest voices in our profession speaking openly about injury prevention, awareness, and career longevity.
I first discovered Lauriann’s work early in my own career, when my body was already sending warning signs. Decades later, her message feels even more relevant.
Together, we talk about:
-
Why injury isn’t inevitable — but awareness is essential
-
How subtle habits at the table quietly shape your future
-
The emotional and mental patterns that lead therapists toward burnout and pain
-
Why ergonomics alone isn’t enough
-
And how small, compassionate shifts can extend both your career and your energy
Lauriann also shares what’s new in the newly released 3rd edition of Save Your Hands, including expanded insights on mindfulness, breath, emotional tension, and daily rituals that help therapists stay present — not depleted.
If you’re entering this year asking yourself how to protect your body, your hands, and the work you love, this conversation is for you.
