Salary of Massage Therapist

Massage Therapist in Houston:

"Good Place To Start."

Pros: It got me out of poverty, provided enough to buy my first house, taught me about self healing and self care.

Cons: Physically demanding, pay was not what I expected/was taught in school, 500 hr training program not really adequate and severely over priced ($6000 for 6 months of school), CE classes and insurance are expensive, risk of self injury, clients are demanding and difficult, spa associates and management frequently do not understand or agree with contraindications, stressful, only recommend if you're going to create your own business.

Massage Therapist in St. Paul:

"Life As A Massage Therapist."

Pros: The flexibility to come in only when I have a session(s). The environment is relaxing for both client and therapist. Scrubs not required; professional looking clothing is. Stress is low except when I don't get enough sessions to pay the bills. The owner is a chiropractor and offers to adjust me as a benefit since they can't afford to give me any other benefits currently. I have no other supervisor besides myself and the chiropractor. Filling out S.O.A.P. Notes on sessions is easy. I don't compete for hours because I am the only massage therapist employed there.

Cons: If I don't get enough sessions in a month I may not be able to pay my bills. People may not realize there is even a massage therapist working at that location since there is only a sign for the chiropractor on the side of the building and the door. Advertising is limited to online offers with the current financial budget. The massage room isn't very large. I make less per hour currently than other jobs would be able to offer.

Massage Therapist in Honolulu:

"Love What You Do And The People You Work With."

Pros: I love to help patients achieve normality through massage therapy. The co-workers/ colleagues that I interact with are positive and goal oriented people like me. I love the flexibility of my work schedule.
