    I am a CNA who is currently working bedside and WAS going for nursing. I have been working since the pandemic and I am over this. I start my massage therapy program in three weeks. I want to do this for people who suffer chronic pain. I had a head/neck injury 5 years ago, and there is much relief I can gain from massages. I cannot wait. I want to work in the hospital for cancer patients, along with maybe starting my own side business as well. I don't know just yet, but I want to help people heal in a holistic way.

    I have been a massage therapist for the past 6 years!! I absolutely love it. I was actually thinking of studying Nutrition to add to my skill set.

      Put God first and watch how successful you’ll become. Don’t focus primarily on money but build relationships

      Absolutely, by putting God first and prioritizing building genuine relationships, not only will you experience true success, but you will also create a fulfilling and impactful journey that extends far beyond monetary gains.

    As a yoga instructor and degree in health studies I love the idea of working as a massage therapist. Always loved cozy vibes and its a lucrative career. I love anatomy but I don’t care for nursing. It’s very long hours at hospitals and I commend nurses but I can’t see myself doing it.

    I am clinicals at school. I am open to learning different modalities after school. Chose it because being autistic/creative and very shy adult male, it sort of fits for me more than other careers. I used to work at tiffany and company as just a security guard although I did sales as a guard, because I wanted to be a sale professional but never was hired for that gig. My other job was tsa. It was OK, but the loud sounds would mess me up. I would go into full on depression due to sensory overload for most of my past jobs.

    I’m not YET LMT but my why as of right now is that I love the idea of aiding people in their physical healing journey as possible trauma healing because I remember that you mentioned in one of your videos that there can be trauma stored in the body
    Also I heard the money can be pretty good and something that I desperately need
    So I’m not yet an LMT but I’m going to be doing more research and hopefully going to start my classes maybe next year God willing

    If you’re a male massage therapist forget about it. We get treated like shit.
    I’ve been a LMT for about 3 years now and I won’t be renewing my license. It was fun while it lasted. As a male LMT, you get used and abused. My hands and forearms are shot, you’re schedule isn’t always filled, and you walk around on eggshells. Like I said Massage therapy is great. If you’re a woman. You’ll get treated immaculately. No I’m not being sexist or I’m not trying to be at least just stating a very obvious fact.

      @@teriyakiwilson7072 I mean different strokes for different folks. Here’s the deal. If disprove it great but, after my 3rd year in the industry and watching WOMEN fill their schedule, get treated perfectly fine, I couldn’t do it anymore. You don’t know my story but, if you’d like I have the receipts with zero to lose
      Walk up to anyone and ask would you rather have a man massage you or a woman? 9/10 a woman.
      Lemme guess you think you’re gonna change the world of massage? Highly doubtful.
