flex hours

My husband is Active Military and I am a stay at home mother. Obviously we don't need the extra money but this is something I have wanted to do. I hear the hours are usually flexible. Is this true for the most part? Or, what are the average hours of a good massage therapist?


Answer: Most massage therapists build their own business. While you can set your own hours, you have to be there if you want to build a business. If you go to work for a spa you will work weekends and evenings as well as during the day.

Your work hours will depend on the contract you set up with your employer so you can create what you want but doing so also restricts your ability to build a regular clientèle.
