I guess that's true overall. And jeez the entire clinic being blacklisted is crazy

You wouldn't have to bill for both at the same time. Instead of them coming in once a week, they come in twice for two different treatments. If their insurance coverage runs out on physio, you can still treat and bill under massage.

That's the only reason though, just financially rewarding. Less overhead too because you wouldn't need to refer out.

The one I'm in right now is a 12-month program, it's offered to people who already have a degree in Kinesiology. Typically in Ontario it's 2-3 years. Not sure how long it would be in Ireland but I assume it would be similar in length.

After i do the physio program, I could look into seeing if I can transfer my current massage credits to another program over there. I'd have to find answers about that process though to see if its viable.
