Medibank update

Medibank have advised that they are continuing to experience system difficulties with the issuing of provider numbers to new applicants. Medibank have indicated they understand this unexpected issue has caused frustration for our members and anticipate that it will be resolved by the end of February. Medibank have requested AAMT communicated the following three key items to our members:

  • Please advise providers that once the system is fixed we will issue their provider number with an effective date from when we received the file.
  • Please encourage providers not to follow up with Medibank’s help desk once they have contacted you. This only leads to further frustration as our help desk are unable to offer any additional information than what we have already provided you. It should also be noted that the help desk cannot issue provider numbers over the phone.
  • Closures and additional locations will continue to be processed as normal.

Medibank will advise AAMT when the issue has been resolved. Massage Therapists considering working in the sports industry.

The many benefits of massage

 Benefits of massage

There are many ways in which the benefits of massage can improve the quality of your life. Many people think the benefits of massage are restricted to relaxation (which in itself is hugely important!). But there are numerous other health and wellbeing benefits.

Peer-reviewed medical research has shown that the benefits of massage include: pain relief, reduced anxiety and depression, and reduced blood pressure, heart rate. The release of endorphins and serotonin can: prevent fibrosis or scar tissue, increase the flow of lymph, and improve sleep.

Relief from pain due to musculoskeletal injuries and other causes is one of the other major benefits of massage. It can also relieve tension headaches.

Growing knowledge in Australia about the benefits of massage therapy

the benefits of massage therapy are fully integrated into the Australian health care system (via alternative and complementary medicines and practitioners). Awareness of the many benefits of massage therapy is increasing all the time.

Acupressure or trigger point massage may be very beneficial in relieving back pain. After massage, EEG patterns indicate enhanced performance and alertness on mathematical computations, with the effects perhaps being mediated by decreased stress hormones.

Massage has been shown to reduce subclinical depression. Massage has been used in an effort to improve symptoms and disease progression in HIV and terminal cancer patients. The benefits of massage therapy for these patients are significant in improving and maintaining quality of life.

The benefits of massage for your body

Massage stimulates the immune system by increasing blood flow and lymph drainage. It improves circulation and relieves congestion in the tissues. It stimulates the production of blood cells and promotes lymph flow which hastens the elimination of cellular wastes. It helps clear muscles of lactic and uric acid that build up during exercise and relaxes muscle hyper tonicity as well as relieves muscle tension.

Benefits of massage also include improving muscle tone and delaying muscle atrophy resulting from inactivity. Deep massage can separate fascial fibers, and prevent the formation of adhesions and helps reduction of inflammation and edema in joints and soft tissue. Massage stimulates increased proprieties and kinesthetic awareness of the body

Massage assists the body’s natural ability to heal itself. It relaxes and tones the muscles preventing injuries, increases circulation and therefore improves the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to all body cells.

One of the best benefits of massage is that it makes you feels great!!!

Sex services undermine legitimate massage

Sex services undermine legitimate massage A recent series of raids by Victoria Police on what the police term ‘massage parlours’, masquerading as legitimate massage clinics but providing unregistered sexual services highlights the need for an urgent review of the regulations governing the massage sector. The issue of offering sexual services has sullied the reputation of the legitimate massage sector for many years. The credibility of remedial massage therapy clinics, their legitimate place as health service providers and safety of the public and practitioners is difficult in a solely self-regulated profession. Current legislation enables the prosecution of individuals who have been shown to have committed a sexual offense, or provided an unregistered sexual service in Victoria, but it has not redressed this problem. AAMT supports Australia’s governments in seeking to establish an enforceable obligation for those claiming to provide massage through the new draft National Code of Conduct for Health Care Workers as a positive first step. However, in its current draft form, the Code is limited in its application and is unlikely to redress the current loopholes. AAMT is seeking a collaborative approach with all State, Territory and Federal Governments where, in addition to the National Code, professional associations have the opportunity to monitor practitioners registered under a Standardised Title of Practice that clearly states to the public their professionalism and education standards. Anyone outside of the Single Massage Register would not be deemed as a professional remedial therapists, making it easier for law enforcement agencies to identify illegal brothels and take appropriate action. This would also make a clear statement to the public as consumers and will help them ensure they are being treated by legitimate remedial massage therapists. – See more at: http://aamt.com.au/aamt-bulletin-july-2014/#row5

What is massage?

Massage is the practice of influencing soft tissue by physical, functional, and in some cases psychological purposes and goals by accredited professionals.

Complementary and alternative medicines are attracting more and more attention within the context of health care provision and health sector reform. The term alternative medicine, as used in the modern western world, encompasses any healing practice “that does not fall within the realm of conventional medicine”. Complementary medicine generally refers to the same interventions when used in conjunction with mainstream techniques.

The question: What is massage can be contextualized within complementary and alternative medicines because it can be used either independently, or along with mainstream techniques.

Members of the profession must be proficient in the use of many skills.
