I'm posting this because it reminds me of the toxic power of mold. We used to live in Louisiana and after Hurricane Katrina, I was helping to try to get my house back in order. It had mold on all the walls, in the carpet, the furniture. Everything had to go. However, I ended up getting the flu 3 times in 6 weeks. My doctor told me that it was from the mold. The mold was causing severe allergies and allergies can cause flu like symptoms.
The attached article is worth the read.

BAYLOR UNIVERSITY PUBLISHES LARGEST STUDY EVER ON MASSAGE THERAPY USE

July 2024

"Many people receive massage therapy and for many reasons. But according to a new study – the largest and most comprehensive ever conducted on the subject – the prevalence of visits to massage therapists is higher than one might have imagined and the reasons may be surprising."

“What our study shows is that it’s probably not helpful any longer to label massage as an ‘alternative’ therapy, with all of the marginality that the term conveys.”

“Licensed massage therapists ought to be respected as mainstream practitioners, whose profession provides a therapeutic approach not just to address pain and functional challenges but to foster wellness and overall well-being, physical and emotional.

Everyone can benefit from working with a skilled massage therapist. They’re the hidden gems in the healthcare system.” - Jeff Levin, Ph.D., M.P.H., University Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health. (Robert Rogers/Baylor University)
