This e-Book provides a comprehensive foundation in mathematics for massage therapists. Many of us in the massage community have had bad experiences with mathematics education, experiences which may have made us feel that we are incapable of using mathematics. This perception has deprived us of a valuable tool for communicating about our world with the people around us. Completing the material in this e-Book will give the student access to a key which will open doors to seeing relationships among things in our physical world. This material is prerequisite knowledge for massage educational objectives, as outlined by various stakeholders in the following table.
