Hello, my name is Kathie and I live in Colorado. I have a question. I have a client that I work on from Woodenville, WA. I worked on her recently and discovered she broke her ankle over the summer. I told her she really needed to see someone more frequently to break up the scar tissue. I have done deep tissue, neuromuscular and she really responds well. She is asking that I help her find someone in Woodenville, or Bellevue, Redmond, Lynnwood. She said Seattle would be ok too. I wasn't sure where to even start looking without being there and thought this would be a good place to start. Any help would be great. Thanks!

I work ( weekends) at a big spa and I get paid 40% for each service I do. And when the service is discounted we also have no say. I am not sure of any laws either but would love to know them.

This is one, among many illegal business practices in Washington state. But most spas do it. I worked for a spa in Woodinville and they paid 40% to the massage therapist. Problem is, if they decided to offer a sale price, the massage therapist had no say - they got an automatic salary reduction due to the sale. Chiropractors also regularly disregard the law, wanting LMPs as cash cows. The ethics are not there unfortunately. This is why I started my own massage practice. No one to try to take advantage of me and my hard work.

Yes as far as I know it is illegal to pay massage therapists a % unless they are an employee on commission.

I don't have the exact details but will see if I can find them

Julie
