Florida. I am a 55 year old LMT in Florida working in a chiropractor's office. I have been a LMT over 10 years, am committed to ethics, never had a problem with a client. A patient in the chiropractor's office received 3 massage treatments from me: after the first one she requested additional time, the second and third times she requested me by name; there are several LMTs in the office. About two weeks ago she told another massage therapist in the office, the chiropractor who runs the office and another staff member who works in the office (one by one in different conversations) that I molested her until she bled in the first visit, when she requested extra time, molested her again in the 2nd visit which she requested me for, and in that I molested her in the 3rd visit which she had requested me for, again. The doctor has told me he believes that I did not do it, because he knows how committed I am to ethics with all patients and has monitored feedback - all positive - about my treatments for the past 2 years, and agrees her claims are absurd since she repeatedly requested me, however cannot let me work in the office until it is resolved. She told him and another staff member that she will "press charges." I am lost, I never touched any client inappropriately, always covered them, etc. Part of me is just waiting to be arrested (?) or served lawsuit papers (?) and another part of me wants to research how I could sue her for slander (?) costing me my job. I didn't do anything inappropriate or unethical, everybody knows that, but how could I prove that I didn't do it?
I am just lost and so damaged by this obviously crazy lady and do not know what to do. Any advice appreciated.
