Greta, you have an awesome background!
When I attended Mtn Heart School in 2001, I knew very little about the field. I love massage because of the time I get to spend with people. Watching someone shed their "armour" and drift into a state of peace is divine, for me. I love providing that space...as far as business goes. Well, I moved into a very small town with many misconceptions about massage after doing massage in Telluride, CO for years--what a change!! But, it has been wonderful. I have had the pleasure of introducing massage to many and meeting them on their comfort level, keeps them coming back. I recently moved to Wilmington, NC to be with my "honey:)" and still travel to Graham once a month for a week because the clients keep pouring in!! Wilmington is taking a bit longer to build up--Lesson Learned:::Find the newbies and wow them. Most of my monthly clients are by no means rich-they make their time with me a priority, because I make them a priority.

There is no guidebook that will fill in the blanks, this profession is wide open. Be who you are and those who will benefit from you, will find you.

Best wishes and if you ever want to chat-970-519-1269
