    I love your show! Registered for my first massage courses in a couple of months time and it’s really great to be able to get a frame of reference before beginning my studies.

    One comment - I think you need a new microphone or sound setup? There is a lot of clipping on your sound and it distracts me from the subject matter :’) (I say this with love)

  • Nothing short of amazing

    When I first started listening to Krista's podcast, I was blown away by her natural ability to connect with not only her audience, but also her guests that appear on her show.

    Krista's gentle, yet fact finding approach to what she does is what I think gives her an edge! You can tell that her content is studied and prepared for.

    This is by far one of my favorite podcasts that I listen because every time I learn something new. It's funny how you can feel so connected to someone like you've kno... more

  • Looking forward to more

    Loved Krista questions! She has a very calm and relaxing voice that’s easy to listen to. I hope her next guests have a bit more passion for the profession. It was disappointing listening to someone go on who admits to staying in the profession for a ā€œhighly hourly rateā€ and that ā€œdoesn’t find it challenging enoughā€. I am looking forward to listening to her next guests.

Q: How did vibroacoustic therapy come onto your radar, and why did you pursue it for a decade?

#158 The Office Chair Problem: Why You Still Hurt Even With Good Ergonomics with Christopher Zdenek of Soma Ergonomics

Real ergonomics are laws for work and life, encompassing anatomy, muscle states, blood flow, and posture, whereas marketing often reduces it to labels without clinical grounding.
