Question from: http://www.youtube.com/beecat01 I'm starting massage therapy school in february. i love massage but there are 2 things i can't stop worrying about and that is: carpel tunnel syndrome and the job market for this field. i have little hands and thin wrists so im afraid i may suffer from pain over time..is there any way to avoid this or make my hands stronger? also, can u make a decent living starting fresh out of school? i don't need much to be happy just enough to get me out of the house and on my own. help

  • what massage places pay more- you mentioned massage envy... do they pay hourly or split the cost of a massage or whats this comissioned based how do i know what to decide on how i want to get paid

  • Massage Envy pay can vary. Where I live it's $15 an hour when you give a massage and $0 when you are not (So you are only paid when you massage...that is it). No guarantees, but honestly I think Massage Envy is a great place to start our career, because you can be busy from the start and get tons of experience, before you branch out on your own.

  • MASSAGE ENVY. If you're a Massage Therapist and have any self respect or any respect for the Massage Therapy profession I urge you to STAY AWAY!!!!!!... I worked for M.E. for three months got tired of that slave labor DUMP and quit... The pay @ Massage Envy here in Florida is $15 an hour(you do not get more if you do Deep Tissue work on guest) WE ARE WORTH MORE THAN THAT!... Told

  • I am considering going to massage school in CT...I heard from a(my) massage therapist that I had that you need to get nude in front of others in school when practicing....is this normal??..Im not sure I believe him but why would he lie?

  • im taking a tour today at a local massage school hopefully my mom will let me enroll, (enrollment fee is 4000sumthing) she thinks ill get perverts, which im also scared of.

  • Massagenerd have you got a video on here with no talking just a massage session? Weird I know but it's strangely relaxing to watch.. thanks x
