I’m a student in an LMT training program prepping for my MBLEX, and I was recently (gently) advised that the sooner I can figure out a more long-term goal for specialization within the field, the more I will benefit from my training program because there are at least 5 or 6 different specializations represented across my program’s instructors, and they’d like to help teach/modify their teaching to adapt to the students’ specific goals, when possible.

Do you have any resources listing the different modalities, or other LMT-adjacent careers (like branching into sports massage) that may require a bit more specific certs/licensure but still closely involve massage? I have some interest, but I’d like to know what’s already out there for me to consider aiming towards, or just for me to go ahead and start learning more about.

Tysm ☺️
