Tia McBride, LMT discusses the importance of therapeutic breast massage

October 06, 2022 • Eric Grey and the Watershed Wellness Team • Season 2 • Episode 8

In this episode, I bring on Tia McBride, LMT for her first Watershed Wellness podcast appearance. Tia has joined WW already prepared with a great new skillset for the North Coast community - therapeutic breast massage. Since most people haven't heard of the importance and regulation of this important modality, we wanted to hear from Tia how it works and what folks should look for when seeking it out.

If you'd like to learn more about Tia, you can visit our website. And for some additional reading about this potentially controversial topic, you might check out this article.

As I noted in the preliminaries for this podcast, we use the word "breast" to refer to these tissues, but some people, including trans masculine folks, may use other words to refer to this part of their body. Our use of "breast" is not intended to exclude those people in any way!

If you have questions about breast massage and its suitability for your situation, do not hesitate to reach out using the contact form on our podcast page.
