Hi Kris:  No intrusion at all.  Thanks for the connection

Good Morning :)

   As I've reviewed some of the posts, I see I am not the only new member who is learning the advantages of this website. Thank you for initiating a friendship.  I'm curious and would like to know what your occupation/profession was before becoming a massage therapist and why you chose it? This month is my 13 year anniversary; I've never looked back or doubted my decision.
Gotta' walk my dog :)  

ttyl,

Jannette

Thank you, Kris, Good Morning :)

   I was a pre-school teacher, owner, director and professional nanny ( a real nanny before it became a babysitting occupation) for 16 years. My mother's illness, MS, and the need for physical therapy lead me to massage therapy.

   In massage therapy school, all of my instructors blatantly disliked and discouraged the students from working for Chiropractors which I could never understand. Being older by at least 10 years from the other students I concluded the best way to gain more knowledge as an entrance-level therapist and experience was working for one. Too, I was out of $$$ and needed an income, Lol!!!  It was the BEST thing I ever could have done. Then again, I work for one of the best who does not use me as "window candy" and extra help around the office.

   I work three full days a week, about 6 hours a day which is about 12 patients a day, more or less, as an employee. The majority of the patients are suffering from motor vehicle accidents or work injuries. Sudden impact physical trauma is not just about physical pain. We, the patients, the doctor, and I, develop close relationships during their recovery and developing that relationship is  vital and the key to their recovery. Every day I am humbled by their trust and belief in what we three do, together.

Thanks for allowing me to share. Have a great day,

Jannette

Hey, Kris,

I just joined this site while looking for an interesting CEU course. That was a great benefit of this site - I am signed up for a course on massage therapy for burn victims.

How do you use this site? Do you collaborate projects or CEU courses with other therapists?

I am a special education teacher and would love to explore the use of massage therapy to promote sensory integration for sensory challenges.

Have a great day!

Thank you for your request, Kris. Great to make your acquaintance. Maybe we can share info on our practices.

Hey Kris, I'm in southern Illinois and I've signed up with massage professionals to network with other mt's. I've written a book called How to Start a Massage Therapy Business. I'm marketing directly to mt schools. I was wondering if you had any contacts with your training facility you could share with me? Read more about me at www.howtostartamassagebusiness.abmp.com Thanks, Tammy Alumbaugh

Thank you for the request.. Summerlin use to be my ol' stomping grounds. Lovely area.

Sorry for the wait. You're not intruding. I'm just busy starting new accounts and finishing my class on Jade Stone Therapy. 

I was a hospice volunteer many years ago. Now I want to return as a Massage Therapist specializing in Reflexology and Lymphatic Drainage.

Hello Kris, nice to meet you. What types of massage do you practice?

Hi nice to meet you! How is massage in Vegas these days? The economy starting to bounce back at all?

It is great to meet you. I am just starting on this journey. Let me ask you this. How has it been for you as a male massage therapist?

I am about to open my new office in Tampa. Any advice out there?

Hi Las vegas Massage nice to meet you as well you must do very well there thats a busy city of lights!!

Not a problem, I too will be looking for Massage Therapist from all around.  I think it is important to network and stay up to date on all the news and techniques that others may have.  I graduated from school in 2010 and I am getting ready to send in my application to take the national cert test - have you already taken your test?

Very nice to meet you too Kris. Warmest wishes from Southern California.
