In this episode of The Radical Massage Therapist Podcast, I chat with Ashley Culp, a registered massage therapist with a passion for accessible, client-centered care. Based in Carleton Place, Ontario, Ashley has built a thriving solo practice that emphasizes inclusivity, offering services like craniosacral therapy, manual lymphatic drainage, visceral manipulation, and more. Ashley shares her journey from a back injury that led her to massage therapy as a second career to becoming a solo practitioner known for her innovative approach. She discusses how offering free 15-minute consultations has enhanced her client relationships, improved accessibility, and set her apart in the industry. Ashley also highlights the importance of setting boundaries to avoid burnout and maintain a sustainable practice.
