Massage School > My Massage Business
If the idea of no commuting, no struggling through the weather or traffic to get to work on
time, and no boss telling you what to do, then becoming your own boss and developing your own home based massage business
is a great solution to provide an income and contribute to your community.
If you like people and the human body, have hands on massage skills and are able
to manage your own finances, this could be the career for you. 'Have hands - can
travel', massage is a very transportable skill where a competent therapist can
find work in most towns and countries.
A career as a massage therapist is very rewarding with many options of being
employment in medical centres, private clinics and on cruise liners, but you may
only earn $14 - $16 per hour.
Massage fees range from $30.00 - $130.00 per hour and
3 or 4 clients per day is a good income
