Welcome to the Skeptical Massage Therapists Wiki
This is an adjunct wiki for members of the Skeptical Massage Therapist FB group to record the conclusions of our discussions on various subjects relevant to the science & practice of massage therapy. Perhaps it can serve as a way of reaching consensus on various subjects & externalising our collective knowledge, as well as a place for folks new to the group to become acclimated to what has been established or agreed upon.
