I'm currently halfway through college and I'm considering to get into massage therapy. I'm not sure what to do or what classes to take or what massage school to get into, I really don't know much about how to do it. I think it's something I would enjoy. Salary? Hours? Schooling? Thank you.
Most massage therapists start their own business because starting salaries are about $12-$15 an hour.
You need to check what schooling is needed in your state to be licensed as a massage therapist. Each state has a different amount.
Take classes in anatomy and business and marketing while you are in college to get you started.
Go and get about a dozen professional massages or so and talk to the therapists and ask them what their days/life is like. It isn't like the pictures on massage schools websites.

can you major in massage therapy in college? or anything similar to that? I want to be a masseuse and would like to know what you have to major in during college- do you even have to go to college?
No. Massage schools are usually a one year program at privately owned massage schools.
I recommend that you go to college for business and or marketing classes and then if you want become a massage therapist.
The average age for massage therapists is 45 meaning that massage schools are geared toward teaching adults who can work more on their own and have more life experience.
You have to have outstanding customer service skills as well as be emotionally mature because you will have to deal with people who are vulnerable because they take their clothes off and also touch brings up deep emotional issues.

check out their website…/www.apollocollege.edu I looked at it and it doesn't tell you how much it will be. You can send for information in the mail and that will usually give you a break down of costs etc. I am sure they will be able to help out with financial aid if you need it. Good luck…massage therapy is a wonderful field to work in.
