Editorial. Customer Service
People may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.
Massage therapy is essentially and purely about customer service. You would be hard-pressed to find, or to imagine a more perfect example of what great customer service is. The best massage therapists give wholly and generously of themselves.
You cannot pretend to care if you are a massage therapist. A massage is one of the most intimate of treatments, with the attention of the therapist focused solely on the individual for an extraordinary amount of time.
The hands cannot lie.
The hands cannot lie.
An individual chooses to study Massage Therapies because they are interested in people and because they are helpers. The Massage Therapy student devotes themselves to studies that will broaden and deepen their understanding of human health. How fortunate are those who have the privilege to have a career that focuses on, and promotes health.
When the client calls for help, often they have tried a circuitous route of medications and various physical therapies before finding their way to you. By the time a Massage Therapist is called, the pain has been aggravated, prolonged, and they will have arrived at their maximum tolerance. Like a wounded animal, the human tortured by pain and immobility must be given sensitive care.
Massage is a powerful and effective tool to help people. A Massage Therapist is a bit like an Alchemist. We welcome these desperate calls for help. We delight in the transformation that we can enable. The individual empowered with health is a joyous payment.

The best Massage Therapists will continue throughout the length and breadth of their career to gain the knowledge and the skills necessary to help, and to be more effective in that help. They will employ any and all aids to achieve the goal of excellence in customer care.
I do not think of you as simply my customer; I have taken you under wing and into my heart. I look forward to taking care of you. When you come for a visit I am genuinely happy to see you. I have made preparations for you. I will meet your trust and confidence with knowledge, integrity, and skill.
There are many thoughtful details that can enhance treatment, appealing to all of the senses. A clean and aesthetically pleasing, peaceful environment with deep flannel sheets, enchanting music, refreshing and relaxing smells, special lotions, customized treatments, and personalized care. A Massage Therapist must also be able to consistently operate a functional, efficient business.
Thank You
I have been one of those fortunate to have devoted my career to promoting health. But the therapy was not a one-way street. Being a Massage Therapist and caring for people has brought me out of my introverted self and has given me the opportunity to develop communication skills that have enriched my life. Yes, I value the practical skills that I have gained as a Therapist and as a business owner, but above all, I appreciate that I have the opportunity to learn the language of love.
