💆♀️ A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A MASSAGE THERAPIST… 😂
7:00am — Alarm goes off.
Me: “I’m going to have an early night tonight.”
Also me at 11:47pm: scrolling TikTok. 👀
8:30am — Arrive at the salon/spa feeling fresh, motivated and ready for the day. ✨
8:35am — Start preparing the treatment room.
Fresh towels? ✅
Bed made? ✅
Oils ready? ✅
Music on? ✅
Candle lit? ✅
Room smelling like heaven? ✅
9:00am — First client arrives.
“I’m really tense around my shoulders.”
Me: I can tell… your shoulders have practically moved into your ears. 😂
9:55am — “That was amazing, I feel so relaxed.”
Me internally: Excellent. Another human successfully returned to Earth. 😂
10:00am — Quick reset.
Disinfect everything.
Change the couch roll.
Wash hands.
New towels.
Re-stock everything.
Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. 🔄
12:30pm — Lunch!
…or what massage therapists like to call “that 4-minute window where I inhale a sandwich.” 🥪😂
2:00pm — Client says:
“I don’t think I have any knots.”
Me, finding approximately 47 knots in their shoulders:
“Interesting…” 😂
4:00pm — Someone falls asleep during their treatment.
Honestly? JOB DONE. 😴🙌
6:30pm — Last client of the day.
My feet: 🫠
My back: 🫠
My brain: 🫠
But my client walks out saying:
“I feel like a completely different person.”
And suddenly… it was all worth it. 🤍
7:30pm — Clean the room, wash the mountain of towels, tidy everything away and finally head home.
Me: “Right, early night tonight.”
Also me at 10:52pm:
“Just one more episode…” 👀😂
💆♀️ Massage therapist life — part therapist, part cleaner, part laundry service, part mind reader… and full-time shoulder detective. 😂
Wouldn’t change it for the world though. 🤍✨
