ThomasRoss's Personal Masseur Interview
Last Updated: Dec 15, 2024

1
What advice would you give to someone who wants to be a Masseur?

- 1) You NEED education or you will break your body if you do this job more than a few hours a week, but make sure you already give a good amateur massage before you splurge on a bunch of expensive education for a profession that isn't for you. 2) If you want to make massage therapy your main source of income, you don't look like a supermodel, and you're not selling anything beyond your therapeutic talents (nudge-nudge, wink-wink), be prepared to sell your services at the bottom of the price range until you build up a client base, and then raise them gradually so your regulars don't get sticker shock. If it's just something you do for fun money, you look like you belong in adult films, or you're willing to do any of the things you see in adult films, then price yourself higher.

2
Tell us a little about yourself, if you were to pick something what would you like your clients to absolutely know about you?

- First off, please read my reviews. They aren't telling any lies. Second, if you can come see me with a loose schedule where I can give you extra minutes without making you late for anything, you'll almost certainly get a few, if not quite a few. Not just on the hour, but the 90 and the two hour session as well. My preference is always to be done when I'm done rather than race a stupid clock. Third, even when I'm scheduled "back-to-back", I always put a half hour buffer between clients so that I can still give you your full time, even if LA traffic made you a bit late.

3
Is extensive training necessary for a Masseur in order to be successful?

- No, I don't think extensive training is necessary to give good massage. I've received amateur massages that were better than professional ones! I do believe that at least some training is quite important, if only to learn how to preserve your body. But possessing physical empathy is just as important. It's like learning how to play an instrument when you do in fact have an ear for music. You're just plain going to be better than someone else with the same education who doesn't have your instincts and perceptions.

4
How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or are you more of a homebody?

- I don't work when I travel. Heck, I don't even do outcalls! It's a good thing my studio is in a central location.

5
How do you like clients to feel about the experience when they leave?

- I like clients to feel healed, even if they only came to relax. I love to hear them say, "I was going to go grocery shopping, but I think I'll go home instead and take a nap." Also, I like clients to feel like they've had a massage! Have you ever had one where a few hours later your body felt just like it did before? You won't get that with me. The best description I ever heard was, "I wake up the next day after one of your massages feeling like I'm about an inch taller."

6
Do you consider yourself a successful Masseur?

- Depends on what you mean by successful. I've never been any good at self-promotion and general hustle, so it always seems like I could use some more business. But I can depend on the fact that if I see you once, there's a better than even chance I see you twice. Even if you're from out-of-state! With my promotional skills, I'd be out of business without a decent returning client base. So I'm successful in that way.

7
Some people say that being a Masseur is addictive. Would you miss your Masseur days ?

- If I were to leave the profession, I would definitely miss it! A lot. Think about it--some 40-ish guy limps into my studio, moving like a 75 year-old man, pleading, "fix me." I do my thing, and he bounces out at the end like he's 25 again. Literally, I lay my hands on people, and they are healed. I should start a church or something! It's heady stuff! Probably somewhat like what doctors must feel when they fix people.

8
Do you remember your first client ? Tell us something about that first day when you decided to be a Masseur!

- I wish my memory worked that well! I can remember a few of the clients I had in my first month of practice, but not which one was the very first. It was almost 13 years ago, after all! I originally decided to be a masseur because I was an unhappy landscape architect and wanted something to cushion me financially while I found my next profession. That plan barely lasted through the first day of class. By the second day, I was hooked. This is now my profession, not something to keep me busy until the next thing comes along.
