Hospital Massage | HBMN Home

Welcome to the Hospital-Based Massage Network Connect with and learn from others working with the ill, the recovering and the elderly in hospitals, medical centers, and nursing homes. The Hospital-Based Massage Network (HBMN) supports massage and touch therapists pursuing skilled touch for the ill, recovering and elderly in hospitals, medical centers and nursing homes.
	The HBMN supports: • Massage Therapists • Touch Therapists • Progressive Medical Professionals • Nurses who use touch and energy therapies • Physical Therapists who utilize massage therapy techniques • Integrative Medicine Practitioners • Cutting-edge hospital, nursing home, and hospice administrators • Supporters of the integration of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) into mainstream medicine.
Mission Statement: The mission of the Hospital-Based Massage Network (HBMN) is to contribute to the integration of complementary health care into mainstream medicine via directly supporting the massage and touch therapists who are actively creating or pursuing this integration through their work with the ill, the recovering, the elderly, and the dying in hospitals, medical centers, and nursing homes. The HBMN believes this work is healing (making whole) our medical system and helping patients heal more fully.
	Massage therapists are helping to heal patients, staff and the entire medical system by simply and profoundly reminding people, through touch, of the place of stillness and compassion within us all — the inner spark and connection with divinity from which all healing flows. —Laura Koch, HBMN Founder & Director
