Sirsamlucas's Personal Masseur Interview

Last Updated: Jul 18, 2023

- Being a massage therapist has it's perks. I feel being on my own (self employed) can be addictive having more freedom in my schedule to work around what I enjoy doing.

- I became a licensed massage therapist in July 2019. I would like to continue doing this in some degree until the day I die.

- My life experiences may not be unique, but the way I've evolved with them has made me into what I feel is a unique being. Empathy, awareness, skill and knowledge are just a few of the traits I bring with me as well as a strong body ready to heal and soothe.

- I love animals, and I believe they can teach us how to communicate more efficiently.

- Yes, I do. I enjoy what I do and I believe it shows. I take care of myself and I try my best with each client whether new or returning to do the same for them.

- My first client was while I was working at a major massage establishment in Covina in the summer of 2019. It was a female client and it was set up as a couples massage, two therapists in one room working on one of the pair each. I was nervous and not very experienced. Everyone was sweet as they could easily tell I was new at this. My first day was definitely a learning experience.

- I would like my clients to feel relieved physically, mentally and emotionally.

- Absolutely. Knowledge of Anatomy is essential to understand the map of the body. Knowledge and understanding of physiology can help in applying the correct techniques to best alleviate and release tension. All bodies are not the same and it's important to continue studying and updating our skills through available sources to remain informed on the latest developments in physical therapy.

- Above all else, I would like that my clients feel they were cared for whenever I am with them.

- I definitely enjoy traveling and like to incorporate it into my work whenever I get the opportunity

- Love what you do

- I enjoy helping people feel better. I like Anatomy and would like to continue to become a personal trainer. With Massage, I get a hands on feeling on where your body has misalignments or energy-related imbalances

- I am a musician and my favorite instrument would have to be the guitar.
