Retiree New Career in Massage Therapy

Are you retired or soon to be retired?

 

Have you considered what you would like to do with your new-found time?

 

Retirement doesn’t mean becoming inactive or only volunteering your time. Massage Therapy balances the rewards of volunteering with the need for additional income and desire to remain active. 

 

A career in massage therapy:

 

  • Gives you the skills to comfort someone through debilitating illness, cancer, hospice care. These situations often require a low pressure, gentle touch (love touch)– ideal for therapist starting later in life.

  • Keeps you active socially. Therapists work with children, young adults, seniors…

  • Become an asset to the family, friends and medical team of your clients.

  • Provide therapy and comfort to the caregivers of those experiencing illness

  • Unfortunately many of the elderly are isolated and lack visitors/contact. You can fill that gap for them.

  • Personal gratification that you are making a difference. And providing comfort and companionship.

  • Start your own business.

  • Serve the community or local corporations with chair massage.

  • Flexible scheduling

  • Additional income

  • Relaxing career
