Who is the current publisher?

A. PERG was developed and launched by Nancy Toner Weinberger, a Bodyworker, CE Instructor, Business Owner, and Publisher in our field for over 40 years. In 2022, Nancy invited other CE Providers to consider purchasing PERG and Laura Landsiedel Ford stepped forward. Laura and Nancy met in 2000 when Nancy was school director and Laura was an instructor. Over the years, they worked side by side on various projects related to the field. Laura L. Ford is co-founder of Hands On Health LLC a multidivisional massage and bodywork focused company. Prior to taking on the role of PERG publisher, Laura has co-managed a 15 therapist clinic, directed Bodywork Therapy Seminars, taught and developed CE classes, from short courses such as Business Design and Development classes to in depth course series such as the Integrated Neuromuscular-Myofascial Therapy Series (I-NMT). 

In April 2024, a redesigned PERGonline website was launched.

What is the future of PERG Online?

A. Given it’s search feature popularity, PERGonline listings will expand across the USA no matter the region where you teach live classes. We’ve also developed this site so that travel experiences are easily searchable. Please share our site with any CE Provider or Resource Advertiser that you know who is seeking smart ways to reach the massage therapist and bodyworker audience.

What is the future of the PERG Publication?

A. Currenly PERG is printed in paper magazine form in one state, North Carolina. The NC print publication is POWERFUL and costs far less to the advertiser than mailing postcards to a small audience. Where our publication can cost the advertiser less than $600 (average) to reach 8900+ therapists, that price alone would only allow you to send a small postcard to 200-500 households. As for other states, we will consider a print publication in your state only if the state board gives us access to the massage therapist and bodyworker’s home address. There is, however, the potential in the future for a flipbook online only version for other states where mailing addresses are not available.

What makes the people behind PERG “tick”?

We know massage therapists and bodyworkers deserve access to business and education tools as much as any profession. BUT we believe we can take care and mentor our own. From bodyworker to bodyworker, we are on your side! There’s no better a professional to work with you than someone who knows your field inside and out.
