UrbanWarrior's Massage Interview
Do you remember your first client ? Tell us something about that first day when you decided to be a Masseur!

Some people say that being a Masseur is addictive. Would you miss your Masseur days ?
I enjoy being a Massage Therapist. When someone is on my table they are in a vulnerable state and they are putting their trust in me. It’s very hard for most people to relax and get out of their head When I’m able to reach that state with a client I find it rewarding. Would I miss being a Therapist..
