Abstract
During my internship at Body and Soul Massage in Salem, MA, I interviewed massage therapists about what inspired them to join the field, how they’re doing financially, and how they plan to grow in their careers. Many shared that they were drawn to massage therapy because they enjoy helping people and are interested in natural healing. Financial situations varied, some had steady clients and felt financially stable, while others were balancing multiple jobs. Most therapists talked about the importance of continuing education, like taking new courses or earning certifications, to keep improving their skills and staying up to date in the field.
