10 Must Do’s in a Massage Therapists’ week:
- Eat Breakfast! We use approximately 200-600 calories per massage!
- Eat snacks in-between massages
- Use good body Mechanics…this is not a myth, it will make or break you
- Get plenty of rest
- Deep breathe during and between massages
- Stretch: your neck, forearms, back and legs
- Learn to protect yourself spiritually with prayer or other (watch for my upcoming blog on Massage Energy Zaps)
- Keep clear time-boundaries with clients
- Maintain a clean, organized workspace. In my opinion, keep your massage table made with clean sheets and ready for your next client
- Stay strong: exercise regularly, 3x/week, focusing on hands, arms, back, legs and core
