Comment by Julie Onofrio on March 9, 2010 at 11:25pm: I would say first clear up your own judgments and beliefs about being male in this profession. It is like saying I am not getting clients because it is too cold today. If you think you won't get clients because you are male - then you won't.

There are plenty of very successful massage therapists out there. Find one and ask them to mentor you.
