Become a Massage Therapist

The Massage Therapy Career Guide Ebook is Now a Book!!!
 A Career in Massage - Is it for you?

If you are thinking of becoming a massage therapist, there are many things you need to know about careers in massage and choosing the massage school that is best for you.  Careers in massage are constantly being listed in News Reports as the up and coming career.  What they don't tell you is that entry level jobs at the many massage franchises start at $12 an hour.  You may as well just become a checker in a grocery store.  They will try to get your attention by saying that you can make $60 an hour - well that is only if you start your own business.  The average fee that people pay for a massage in the US is $60 an hour.  You don't get to make that an hour.

You can be successful in a career in massage and find higher paying jobs as well as start and run your own business when you take the time to research a career more thoroughly and find out what you need to know about becoming a massage therapist.  When you are more informed you will be able to flourish in the field of massage.

I have written the "A Career in Massage - Is it for you?" after 24 years of having my own massage business and working with many massage therapists in their struggles to build their own business and find higher paying jobs.  I wrote it because I want to start helping massage therapists be more informed about the career.  I have seen too many people complaining about low paying jobs, trying to get clients and just stay in business.  I have seen too many burnout and call it quits after just a few years in the career.  I want to share with you my personal lessons I have learned from going through burnout myself.  This website is one of the ways I survived.  It is basically what you will be learning in massage school.  I also have other sites - www.massage-career-guides.com - to help you find out more about careers in massage and find a massage school and my other site www.massagepracticebuilder.com to help you build your business when you graduate from school

You can be very successful in a career in massage when you know what a career is really about and how to choose the best massage school to meet your own personal needs for learning and support as you follow your journey.

My Book  "A Career in Massage - Is it for you?" can help you do just that.  When you go into the career understanding just what it is about and accept the challenge your chances of success increase dramatically.

 "A Career in Massage - Is it for you? : 
The Truth About Becoming a Massage Therapist".

I am writing this after 24 years of making a living as a massage therapist in Seattle WA.  Through the years I have seen many massage therapists come and go - some that I have even personally recommended going to massage school.  When I first started there were very few jobs and doing massage was more about a lifestyle than making a living.  As more massage therapists have entered the market, it makes massage therapists take their massage business more seriously and see it as a business - not a part of themselves.

Being a massage therapist can still be a very rewarding and successful career when you go into it being fully prepared and informed.   You can do so when you purchase the "A Career in Massage - Is it for you?  - The Truth about becoming a massage therapist" now in it's 1st book edition (formerly in ebook form since 2002.)  I constantly am updating the information based on feedback from my readers.

What others are saying:

"Your book pulls no punches and really makes you think about what it REALLY
means to be a massage therapist.  I love the fact that you tell us what most
people never do, like don't think everyone has smooth soft skin and are not
hairy.  I LOVE THAT...it really did make me think about what I was heading
into.  I'm actually enrolled in massage school and will start in two weeks. "
Sue, NJ

"I owe my decision to become a massage therapist to you. Your online book"...Cheryl

"I have been in practice since 2003 and I work alone. I have had many challenges.  
Your Ebook helped me in so many ways"...  Fris
"I'm pleased to see that you are giving such an honest and truthful opinion 
about how a career in massage can really be. I am constantly on the internet 
searching for info on massage.  I've had an interest in becoming a massage 
therapist for a few years. In the meantime, I've gotten a diploma in business and
 I'm trying to now make the decision to begin the process of becoming a massage 
therapist or to venture into university. I'm very confused about the decision, so its 
always great to read things that are not swaying me one way or the other"... Christina
"I just wanted to thank you for this website!  The work you put into it is really 
valuable and very informative. I am preparing to study at Chicago School of 
Massage and you really put everything into perspective, without all the hype 
the schools feed us"....Michael

So if you are ready to pursue an exiting career in massage start out right!
