    Who am I?
    I'm Ayana, owner of True Massage & Bodywork. A 6 figure wellness brand that specializes in post-op lymphatic drainage massage. I help overwhelmed massage therapists who are tired of being solo practitioners become entrepreneurs using automation, systems, and smart outsourcing so they can earn passive income and avoid burning out.

    I am a CNA who is currently working bedside and WAS going for nursing. I have been working since the pandemic and I am over this. I start my massage therapy program in three weeks. I want to do this for people who suffer chronic pain. I had a head/neck injury 5 years ago, and there is much relief I can gain from massages. I cannot wait. I want to work in the hospital for cancer patients, along with maybe starting my own side business as well. I don't know just yet, but I want to help people heal in a holistic way.

    As a yoga instructor and degree in health studies I love the idea of working as a massage therapist. Always loved cozy vibes and its a lucrative career. I love anatomy but I don’t care for nursing. It’s very long hours at hospitals and I commend nurses but I can’t see myself doing it.

    I am clinicals at school. I am open to learning different modalities after school. Chose it because being autistic/creative and very shy adult male, it sort of fits for me more than other careers. I used to work at tiffany and company as just a security guard although I did sales as a guard, because I wanted to be a sale professional but never was hired for that gig. My other job was tsa. It was OK, but the loud sounds would mess me up. I would go into full on depression due to sensory overload for most of my past jobs.

    If you’re a male massage therapist forget about it. We get treated like shit.
    I’ve been a LMT for about 3 years now and I won’t be renewing my license. It was fun while it lasted. As a male LMT, you get used and abused. My hands and forearms are shot, you’re schedule isn’t always filled, and you walk around on eggshells. Like I said Massage therapy is great. If you’re a woman. You’ll get treated immaculately. No I’m not being sexist or I’m not trying to be at least just stating a very obvious fact.

If disprove it great but, after my 3rd year in the industry and watching WOMEN fill their schedule, get treated perfectly fine, I couldn’t do it anymore. You don’t know my story but, if you’d like I have the receipts with zero to lose
      Walk up to anyone and ask would you rather have a man massage you or a woman? 9/10 a woman.
      Lemme guess you think you’re gonna change the world of massage? Highly doubtful.
