Subcontracting Has Been The Best Experience For Me

I have had experiences as a direct employee and as a subcontractor. The benefits of working as a direct employee such as security and a steady stream of clients are important to many people and based on your personality and personal preferences, this arrangement my be the best for you.

Ultimately, I have found that working as a massage subcontractor is the best working mode for me. I have worked in association with physical therapists very successfully. The PTs usually have an established space and continuous stream of clientele. This provides a significant level of security in terms of business and yet allows me to cultivate my own clients and maintain a significant level of autonomy.

I would highly recommend that after a massage therapist has gained some real world experience and confidence in their technique to seriously consider subcontracting. This is especially true for those people striving to maintain a healthy work life balance.
