This is a list of common CAM manual therapies. For context please also see the manual therapies defined page.

If you provide service sessions based on the following or similar manual therapies that constitute the primary reason and time committment of a client/patient visit, feel free to participate. Please answer the survey based on those therapeutic massage service sessions, not on other services you may provide.

TCM doctors, Chiropractors, Acupuncturists, Nurses, and other medical personal will have training and practices that differ significantly from other CAM manual therapists. Therefore, this project is currently not recruiting those practitioners. If you have any questions, please contact the researcher.
