Mythbusting with Lauren McLaughlin
This is an episode of my mythbusting series featuring Lauren McLaughlin, an RMT in Fredericton NB.
Lauren and I discussed her journey into scepticism and how she is trying to bring more awareness into popular unhelpful myths such as "no pain no gain."
When Lauren began her practice she quickly realized that the knowledge and techniques she learned in school were not working the way she was taught. This confusion and frustration motivated her to start searching for more answers because she wanted a more accurate understanding to better inform what she was experiencing with clients.
She emphasizes the importance of trauma informed care how she started using Instagram as a tool to communicate with her clients but also as a way to communicate more helpful messages to the RMT population.
If you would like to get in touch with Lauren, she can be contacted through her IG account under the name groundedmassagetherapy.
