RNtherapeutics

Hi...sorry it took so long to answer. Services I plan to offer include several different massage types, such as: Deep Tissue, Swedish (of course), Cupping, Thai Yoga Massage, Thai Medicine Ball massage...just to name a few. As an RN I have no problem with contacting and consulting with a client's primary health care provider, in order to create a care plan/recovery plan as a team approach. I also plan to do home visits for Elderly/Shut In type of clients that cannot easily travel. I also hope to provide massage therapy for nursing home and hospice clients as well. As NANMT, I gave up. I had reached the person in charge, but then never heard back from them...? It seems they are and or will no longer be an actual group/association...? Therefore, I decided to pursue the Holistic Nursing membership and will work toward get my certification within Holistic Nursing instead as I believe that will better complement my Massage Therapy better in the long run. =)

Hi. I am an Registered Nurse (almost 7yrs) as well as a Licensed Massage Therapist (14yrs). I am preparing to open my own wellness clinic in my area (Iowa). I've contacted NANMT (National Association of Nurse Massage Therapists) for guidance/info in Nurse Massage Therapists area of specialty (for scope of practice, etc) and to also become a member, however found that they are right now inactive but are regrouping currently. I have researched & educated myself on the ins/outs of insurance billing, as I will be able to bill insurance. Business wise, I also have a business/accounting education/background and owned a private practice as an LMT (before I became an RN), so I pretty much have that aspect covered. I am getting close to opening date (should be late December early Jan), and with that nearing I am curious to see if there are any practicing RN-LMTs that also have their own clinics/centers? And if so, how is it going and do you have any advice and or words of wisdom to share...?
