BodyWorkJack's Personal Masseur Interview

Last Updated: Apr 19, 2021

- For the money, to be completely honest lol

- For about 15 years. I will continue as long as I'm mentally and emotionally interested in doing so.

- I believe training is necessary but I don't believe a person has to be an LMT to have good touch and do good bodywork.

- I really feel like the majority of my clients leave feeling satisfied and relaxed. I rarely have a client leave and never hear from them again.

- I'm more of a homebody but I'm hoping to start traveling once this COVID situation is back to normal.

- I do this when I want and with whom I want. I do not make myself available to every single person who waves a $100 bill in my direction and because of that, I don't find myself over-worked or doing massages when I don't want to. If we connect, I know we'll both have a good experience that nobody has to fake.

- Remember who you are, what you want, what you're willing to do and what you won't stand for.

- I bike almost daily when the weather is nice and over 40 degrees. I love to spend time outside. Huge dog person. I like good food, good beer and good people.

- I want them to feel relaxed, satisfied and that their time and money was well spent.

- I'm often told I have good energy. I do not do massage as my full-time job or because I have to do it—I do it because I like to do it. I think that helps me continue to enjoy the experience and be able to give my clients an enjoyable experience, as well.

- After about 15 years of continuing to work and build a client base of regulars, I would definitely consider myself to be successful!

- I wouldn't say "addictive," but I've taken breaks before but seem to find my way back. My former clients continue to message me and I do enjoy having fun experiences with regulars.

- No but I started doing body work a million years ago to help pay my way through college. I decided to do it because I like the experience, I generally enjoy meeting new people and it feels good.
