I've been performing Reiki massage therapy on just the hands for a few months now. My clientele cosists of family & friends. Everyone says their hands feel so relaxed and light. I'm very interested in having my "hobby" provide me with extra income. Is a license needed for this? I know that one is not needed for Reiki, but how about hand massages?
It actually depends on the state you live in whether you need a license for Reiki. For example, in Florida, you need to be clergy, a Licensed Massage Therapist, or other health care provider.
The same for hand massage, is your state regulated? If it is massage, you need to be licensed in some way. Certified Reflexologist, nail techs (manicurists), and MTs are all allowed to massage the hands.
Good luck.

i'm looking into going to Arizona School of Massage Therapy. your thoughts on the education your school provided? around what income you're making? and What kind of therapy you went into?
Also.. what kind of office do you work at? details please.. and any advice??!!
please and thank you…<3
Arizona School of Massage sounds like they will give you the training to pass the national boards. You will learn more in the first three weeks of practice than you will learn in school.
I have been to several schools and teach at three of them occasionally. My practice is in a soap and coffee shop with natural healing at the forefront.
My rates are the lowest in the triad area because I want to heal and not gouge my patients.
My average income is about $300.00 per day with $300.00 per month going to my rent and utilities.

I am 19 years old, and like all 19 year olds I don’t know what to do with my life.
I just withdrew from college due to family problems and not wanting to go to a gigantic university for four years with dumb alcoholic college students. I actually have a 3.7 GPA and was in the top 15% of my class. My only problem is.. I hate MATH and CHEM but I love BIO and PHYS. weird.. I know.
I want to go to school for a limited amount of time because I want a job quickly but I want a decently paying job where I can at least establish a life for myself and I want to like my job. I love helping people and talking to people. I want to be respected but i hate math and chem!!!!
So help me choose:
Massage Therapist
2/3 years of schooling
no chem classes or math
Highest pay about $40,000 a year
Work at Spas,Hospitals,at home,Chiropractic practices
Might get carpal tunnel
Less stressful environment.
Service job: tips
If the world ended… and me and like 10,000 people were left, I wouldn’t know jack shit.
Nursing
2/3 years of schooling
You have to be a CNA before an RN which means I can work while at school!
Chem/Math classes
Yearly pay $60,000 med income….. i think..
Stressful environment depending where you work.
Always on your feet
You get to wear cute scrubs!
Help people and be nice to them
Theres a waiting list for some nursing school… you have to be awesome to get in.. and if I do badly in chem and math they will never except me.
If the world ended … and 10,000 people were left.. id actual be useful.
* If you are a massage therapist or a nurse will you please give me some input on your life.If your not, give me some info anyway.
Nursing requires more schooling that Massage Therapy. In nursing, you will be required to take some math and you might be able to get out of chem class, but still have to biology courses. Nurses have to know how to calculate the proper dosage of meds, based upon weight and age. yes, I know doctors and the pharmacists are supposed to do this for you, but if you read the news, nurses loose their jobs for not being able to do this properly. yes, you will always have a job anywhere you go! Many nurses take massage therapy classes to help better their nursing skills and make them more desirable when job hunting.
As a massage therapist, depending upon your state’s requirements, you will need to take at minimum a 500 hour course (about 9 months). but again, depending upon your state, it could be a bit more. there are no chem classes or math required unless you are pursing an associates degree. As a massage therapist, you will stil be employed as people NEED the human touch. As a massage therapist, you will be helping relieve tension, lower blood pressure, increase the immune system’s response to colds etc., heal quicker from injuries and illnesses. you will also help people work through their mental and family stress problems by listening sympathetically, even though you are not qualified to offer advice. You will have regular clients that will come to know you as a trusting and caring individual, someone that they can come to when needed, sometimes at a moments notice! As a nurse, you will be also required to listen sympathetically, but you will remain mostly anonymous, a kind a caring soul during a difficult but brief period of time.
both careers can and do get carpal tunnel syndrome. Both are service jobs, but a nurse has to deal with doctors who have a tendency to have the “I Am God” syndrome (but not all!).
Some Massage Therapists continue school to become Nurses, but quite a few go on to becoming Physical Therapists or Occupational Therapists or even Naturopathic Doctors.
You have to look inside yourself and see what really drives and motivates you. When I was your age, I looked at being a nurse for the very same reasons as you stated. I started schooling for a nurse, worked as a CNA too! But I never finished because it wasn’t for me. Now, at 42, I am a Certified Massage Therapist of 2 years now with my own business. I did work at salons and I’ve been offered jobs at chiropractors, doctor’s offices and medical spas, but I prefer to work for myself. As a starting business, it is a struggle, but one I enjoy!
follow what is in your heart and your mind and your dreams. Only then will you be truly happy.
P.S. And it may not be either career!!!!

I am trying to decide on becoming a hair dresser (something I have dreamed of doing ) or a massage therapist??
I live in the Pacific NW, so I am trying to figure out which one would make the better income and why you would recommend each proffesion??
You indicated that you "dreamed of" being a hair stylist. If you follow your passion, the money will come. A cosmetologist, can do hair, nails and facials. A massage therapist can do massage and depending on state law, body treatments. Each position has its long term physical challenges. Massage takes a lot of physical energy, do you have the stamina for it and can you give a good massage. Hair, also creates physical challenges. It is not easy holding your arms up and drying long hair, Those muscles get a work out. Most massage therapist as they age will switch to aesthetics or facials so they can sit down and perform the service. Also look at the environment that you want to work in. In a resort environment, Massage is the #1 service. In a residential area, Hair is done by clients more on a regular basis, they consider a massage a splurge, although that is changing. If you can afford to be cross trained get licensed in both. If you can select only one. Then follow your heart it appears that is leading you to being a Cosmetologist.
