What does a typical day look like for a Massage Therapist?

Every day is an amazing adventure! Each day our Massage Therapist practitioners perform a variety of services. Example: massage, body scrub, body wrap, contouring and other spa services. Training & Certification will be provided.

No two appointment days are exactly alike. Your appointments and service mix will depend on client bookings and your qualifications.

Before each visit, you’ll review the scheduled appointments and prepare a welcoming, ready-to-use treatment room. Keep in mind that our appointments are booked online and are fluid. Your day may have openings in the morning that are booked during the work day. Expect the unexpected. Expect to be busy.

You’ll consult with the client, adapt the service to their needs and comfort, and give them your full attention during the session. Afterward, you’ll complete your treatment notes, share any relevant recommendations, and sanitize and reset the space for the next guest. You will work quickly and efficiently because your next client is on the way. Our Spa Coordinator will be onsite to provide support each day. The variety keeps your skills engaged. The consistent thread is how clients feel in your care: heard, comfortable, and confident because they chose Black Bella Spa.

Training & certification at Black Bella Spa is not FREE.
