Let sole proprietor massage therapists get back to work to serve those who serve you!

Let sole proprietor massage therapists get back to work to serve those who serve you!

The Issue

Being a sole proprietor and Texas licensed massage therapist I network with other hard-working, like-minded, massage practitioners in the area to serve our community with care, conviction and pride.

Our clientele consists mainly of first responders, nurses, doctors, teachers, physical therapists, mental health providers, general contractors and other small business owners. Most of these are still working. Even working more than before. There is no relief for them in this time. It is a horrible feeling to have our hands tied and have no way to provide care for these hard-working individuals we have great respect for.

We work so very hard for our communities. We support our families. We save for our retirements. We donate our time to charity. We pay 20% of our net income to taxes. We will never get this lost time back.

My heart aches for all the therapists that left other careers to become a full-time massage therapist. They saw a need in their community and filled it. We are extremely important in the pain relief of those we serve both physically as well as mentally and emotionally. They are hurting more than ever.

True Fact:
It’s MASSAGE or OPIODS in some cases

Having built my massage practice for the last 18 years, I have regular clients that are patiently waiting on me (hopefully most will return) but other therapists, 1-5 years into building their business, have lost all the money and the time they’ve invested!

Their livelihoods have disappeared.

Their passion is faltering.

Their momentum is totally gone.

There has been NO monetary assistance received as of yet.

We chose to work hard for our income and serve our community with care, conviction and pride. Please help us get back to work with a soft re-opening for healthy clients that need the relief in this extremely difficult, painful and stressful time.

We will take ALL precautions to keep everyone safe.
