Massage Careers

What does it mean to have a career in massage?

Most of us think of relaxing body work, or other hands-on modalities when asked this question. Yet choosing a career in massage therapy can be a lot more than that.

As the trade of massage grows new opportunities are appearing, and that means more options and choices for you and your massage and bodywork service career.

Both small business massage therapists and the growing massage related industries are utilizing paid assistance for the delivery of the massage and bodywork experience.

What am I talking about?

What Do you Expect?

Some where in their career most massage therapists enter the murky territory of what to charge for their services. It's often a stumbling block, and/or a trail to frustration because it brings up all kinds of fears.

Throughout the years I've coached clients to take this issue on and better their business . . . and their self esteem. It's a battle worth fighting, and the outcome can change your life.

Unlike doctors, psychiatrists and other health professionals, massage therapists seem to struggle with charging market value for their time, work, education and services. Why is that?

Massage Therapist Poll Question

Recently I started a poll in Massage Marketing Rebellion Yahoo Group to find out if massage therapist's were finding receptivity and opportunity working with or for other health practitioners. I was immediately pleased to see responses to the poll.

Massage in Health and Medicine

A recent survey of Massage Marketing Rebellion Yahoo Group (MMR) reveals that some massage therapist have expanded their work into varied fields of health and medicine during their career. This is another good sign for the viability of the massage trade.

Wouldn't it be great to see a massage therapist (MT) working with your physician to optimize your health and wellness?
