Should MTs ever be allowed to click ? ala osteo chiro style ?

I have never felt an intuative urge to click someone out in my massage session (though it often happens naturaly when I release muscle ) for MTs that do feel this intuative urge, is it time to train as Osteo Chiro?, what other paths are there? For me its a difining line you should cease to call yourself an MT and become a Osteo Chiro.
Please post your thoughts on this!

Over the years many sessions have resulted in a spontaneous adjustment, but I have never deliberately tried to adjust anyone and never would, unless I received the proper education and earned the credentials allowing me to do so.

Hi Laura, thanks for your answere...once you have received the proper education and CEs do you wear another cap? or can an MT still call it massage? to me you've crossed a dividing line!

Absolutely Stephen, I'm with you on the dividing line business.

As I'm sure any deep tissue MT will have experienced, sometimes you get a natural adjustment, but to seek it is somethink else.

I think if you want to click then go get the training either Osteo or Chiro and click your clients, by which time you'd have been convinced your a bit more important than us MT's and have given up the massage all together. Hey presto new career as a clicker.
