What is it like working as a Massage Therapist?
May 2014
Life As A Massage Therapist.
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.

Love What You Do And The People You Work With.
Massage Therapist:
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.
Cons: I dislike the pay rate and benefits available to me. I feel like the director of the company doesn't like me.
