Massage Therapy

My husband has been considering a job change and is thinking about going back to school for massage therapy. We have been looking into it and I was wondering if anyone had any personal experience with it. Either as a job or going to one and how your experience was.

Currently he would eventually like to work in a hospital or with a chiropractor.

My son' girlfriend is a massage therapist. Makes decent money and loves her job.

Just make sure all of his clients aren't female.

I know a bunch of legitimate massage therapist and Reiki masters. It is absolutely exhausting work both physically and mentally. Most as they have gotten older have has to cut back their hours.
The girl I use has cut back. I feel sorry for her as I'm hairier then Sasquatch.

I think it a great idea. I go to a medical massage therapist for specific issues (relating to a car accident the other year) and I like doing that rather than take meds.

The past few weeks, I have had major knots under should blade. Heat, ice and massage have helped it tremendously this past week. I go again next Thursday.
