Episode 054: What Do Associations Do? Ann Davey & Selena Hagen Massage and Myotherapy Australia

Recorded at the Massage and Myotherapy Australia 2024 Conference in Tweed Heads, David and Jackie chat with Ann Davey (CEO) and Selena Hagen (Vice President) from Massage and Myotherapy Australia. Have you ever wondered what your Association does for you? Are you even a member of one? Do you ever question why you are a member at all? Ann and Selena take us on a journey of the 21 year history of Massage and Myotherapy Australia, its role in advocating to the Australian government about key issues affecting the industry and members, and also some of the initiatives. The association has launched scholarships, supported new research, reviewed the national training packages, partnered with University of Technology Sydney, collaborated with super peak associations, all while promoting the advancement and legitimacy of massage therapies and myotherapy in Australia. It's a lot! Do you have a burning question for the Association that you want to be answered? Send them an email: [email protected] Looking for more information about the certification process?
