i'm wondering if there are too many disadvantages but if it is a good paying job and if its worth it.What are the advantages and disadvantages?What are the career benefits of a massage therapist?
Advantages %26amp; Disadvantages go hand in hand like the swirling essence of Ying %26amp; Yang.
~*~ A Haiku ~*~
Fragrant Flowers Bloom;
Buzzing Bees Sucking Nectar
Are Lade With Pollen
There will always be a problem with-in every 'Opportunity' we come across in life and only when we allow ourselves to visit the intentions of these problems Optimistically will we gain the strength to focus %26amp; see past these problems of life, and come to co-existing within the serenity of peace provided by each opportunity.
*~* Not all fragrant flowers carry 'Nectar' but as the bee looks for nectar, the flower is relinquishing the Bees burden of pollen by getting pollinated. *~*What are the career benefits of a massage therapist?
most massage therapists start their own business so you have to be good at promoting yourself.
You will never know if it if worth it until you try. Everything is a step to learning about what you want and who you are.
The advantages are that you get to work in a more positive environment helping people to get better and feel better.
It's a hard, sweaty, stressful job. Most people only do it 3-5 years before quitting due to burnout and injury. If you are self-employed, for every hour of paid massage you have to work at least another hour unpaid doing laundry, cleaning, marketing, paperwork, etc. If you are employed you'll most likely early $15-20 an hour. You can only massage 15-20 hours a week because of the physical demands. If you're male you WILL face employment discrimination and most likely accusation of sexual misconduct from a female client. If you're female you WILL be asked for sexual favors. Many males I know have also been asked for sex.
There are no advantages for me. I'm quitting as soon as I re-train in my old career.
