Lots of Questions
I am getting a lot of questions from therapists just starting out and thought maybe a discussion group could serve as a reference point for them.
This time of transition is a delicate time. So many therapists lose confidence. Do not let this be you. This group is here to help you make it. You ARE one of us!
There is now an alliance forming for therapists and students at the Massage Therapy Alliance of America. Click on this link for details http://www.mtaamassage.org

Does anyone rent or plan on renting an empty office space for their massage business? Pros and Cons? I'm considering something like that. I have my own pros and cons but wondered what everyone else thought.

Ray, glad to help, but let me set you straight. I am not by no means well established or well known (yet), I am a "newbee" that's a little older that's all. I have a long way to go myself. I think its great you are taking the extra classes, you can't beat a good education. I go back to school Monday after semester break. After 2 weeks I'm ready to get back into things. Take care my friend!

Thanks again for the feedback everyone! I signed up for a deep tissue class at school for next sunday and the following sunday after that. I'm also hoping to take a MFR class that's being offered in March and there's also a Fibromyalsia class in April that interests me as well. We'll see how those go, but I'm really looking forward to them. We also start clinicals next week and I'm really pumped up about that! I'll take ya'lls advice and learn as much as I can and let my abilities do the talking. I'm really am glad I found this wonderful website. It's nice to have such great feedback from Therapists that are so well established and well known.
