Have you ever tried to find a quality, professional massage and had a hard time finding someone that actually knew what they were doing? Or maybe , they told you they were trained and liscensed, only to find that when you got there, they really weren't and were looking for a fast, easy cash flow. Many of us have experienced this happening to us in one form or another. I am going to be sharing with you in this article several tips and websites on how to find the massage therapist that's right for you, and who will do a quality job, not a half-hearted one. A great therapist will make you feel at home, comfortable, and relaxed as soon as you step into her/his office or place of business, simply because of the fact that they have been well schooled and trained in the arts of being able to read and pick up on body language in the blink of an eye.
A well trained massage therapist will be able to relax your muscles in a short time. Many therapists want to be sure to get all your aches and pains out of your tight, sore and aching muscles and are too focused on doing so that they leave you feeling worse than when you actually came in, and, therefore, you are more sore for several days after your session. The key to getting back to the right health and wellness is not in beating yourself up. In fact, it is more of a relaxed paced session, perhaps a lighter touch Swedish Massage is something that you will feel great on. Or perhaps, you're more into Accupuncture. Personally, I have had the greatest success with both of these. Yet, on the other hand, everybody's body is different and will react differently to different types of massages. So, you will have to figure out what's right for you, based on how YOU and your body feels.
Many people are skeptical when it comes to their first massage. They say, Oh, I don't believe in massage. It's a myth made up that it actually works...... all they want to do is take your money. Surprisingly, this is not true. I too, was a skeptic at first. Now I am a firm believer in this healing art, and would much more prefer it over a visit to the Chiropractor. It is hard to relax enough at a chiropractor's office, without tensing up so they can provide you the neccasary treatments. Whereas, with a massage they are there specifically to make you relax. Frequently, I will get a massage and then go to the chiropractor, because I find that is a easy way to relax all my muscles before getting my bones cracked. Massages are also known to relieve migraines and headaches, helpful for a healthier blood circulation flow, relieving stress from your mind, and so much more. There are hundreds of different types of massages out there and only YOU can decide what's best for your body, depending on how you feel after.
One great site to find a quality, therapeutic massage therapist is Massage Pot. Here, you can find thousands of genuine, real LMT's who are ready to get you in on a moment's notice in your city, state, and country. The best thing is that all advertisers on this site are registered users, meaning they have gone through a screening process in order to be able to offer their services here. I wish you the best in your search for a qualified massage therapist, suited for your health and wellness needs.

Top 5 Places To Post Your Massage Ads
Have you tried many different websites with little or no success? I am an expert in my field of advertising for many things, but today I want to focus on posting massage ads. I have been able to post up to 20 a day withut a problem for free, or almost for free. Now I know that many of you are probably saying what's the use of posting that many ads, but it can save your business. And, if you can post for free, that's a plus because that way you get to make 100% profit besides the time making the ad, which takes little effort and time at all.
Today I'm going to share the top five best websites which are practically free to advertise on, and so you will make almost 100% profit on these five. I am only going based on the experience I've gotten from working with these sites. One thing you need to remember to pay attention to the population of whatever city you want to advertise in because that will make a difference too. You can also advertise in more than one city at a time, don't just limit yourself to the city you're in. Post in surrounding areas as well, you never know who will be willing to drive 30 minutes or an hour out for a massage.
My number one website to advertise with is MassagePot.com. I can get up to 30 calls a day here just from posting in whatever city I'm in plus the surrounding cities. The great thing? It is totally free to advertise here. They also have a banner ad promotion for just $10 but for the basic advertising, it's awesome. I reccommend it to any body rub specialist, especially if you are new to the business and just getting started because you will get calls guaranteed.
BodyRubUSA.com is a great site to post on also. This site was originally designed for body rub specialists, but massage therapists can also post here for massages, as long as you're liscensed.
Craigslist. I love this site! You can post free ads plus you can put links in your ads to your websites, photos etc. I've gotten up to 20 calls a day from here. This will always be a big hit with me to post body rub ads. You can post in therapeutic or beauty services no problem. Sometimes for a change post in the domestic services section.
I don't know how familiar any of you are with Kijiji.com. It is better known as Ebay Classifieds. This is Ebay's free side of their advertising site, and is a lot like Craigslist. It does work, but you will need to keep your eye on your ad as they are notorious for ghosting or flagging your ads.
I hope all these sites will help you as much as they have me, be sure to check the number one site out at MassagePot.com!
Where To Find Massages That Are Legal
Have you ever tried to find high quality massages that were legal and legitimate? First of all, I need to make it very clear, that not everyone who does this, does them illegally. You need to be aware of that. Because those of us who are doing legal,legit businesses and have a customer call and come in and then they try getting illegal makes it very frustrating for us. Many of us are married or engaged. I'll be sharing sevaral tips on common courtesy and also on where to find the best body rubs out there.
The number one rule is to be respectful, there are times when you may think you're being respectful but we don't take it that way. Be aware of what you say and how you say it. That makes a difference in whether you're getting a great one or just an ok one. The word body rub does not mean body to body, contrary to popular belief. It's simply a relaxation session, meant to relieve daily stress, and no, that doesn't mean sexual stress. It means you're every day work load, or at home load of stress.
A second rule is it's a great idea to tip your massage therapist if he or she does a great job. The cool thing about being a massage therapist is that we tend to be more down to earth.However we are still very professional at the work we do. Keep in mind that just because a massage therapist has only been doing it two to six months does not mean they don't already do a great job. It's kind of a natural born talent, either you have it or you don't. Go to sevaral different ones till you find the best fit for you. I like to think it's like trying to find a family doctor. Find one thats compassionate and sympathetic.
Craigslist is a great website. Look in the therapeutic section. You can find body rubs in the creative services section, the beauty section or domestic gigs. Or you could find one in the dating section. Not as good however, mostly you'll probably find other services here so please be aware of that.
A good website to look for massages, is Backpage. They have a specific section for massages (therapeutic), where you can find a therapist. Don't confuse this section with the other section, so once again expect NOTHING more than a massage from this section. These therapists are just trying to do a legal, legit business.
The absolute best place to look for massages that are legit with great professional service, is MassagePot.com! Here, you can find thousands of down to earth, massage therapists, in your city, state, or hometown.

Top 10 Places To Post Your massage Therapy Services
I know how tiring it can be to try to find places to advertise your legal, legit massages, so I'm going to share some sites I've learned from and experienced advertising with, the ups and downs of each site. I've made it easy for you to go to these same sites and get all the results I've gotten from these sites. Keep in mind that some sites may work better for some people than others. Results are different for everyone.
Here is the best website! It's a hidden secret so far, but it's slowly getting out there. And that is Massage Pot! This website gets tons of traffic, and it's free to advertise! Plus, you will not get ghosted or flagged on this website. You do need to register to be able to post an ad, and they also require a 20% fee from your appointments that you get through them, which is only fair since they handle all phone calls to ensure you get the best use out of the site. In my experience it was totally worth it though, I highly recommend their professional service to any massage therapist.. I use this website personally and get up to 30 calls a day from here. You will find the URL at the bottom of this article.
Craigslist is a fantastic way to be able to put an ad up for free without getting ghosted or your ad getting flagged as long as you are within the guidelines of the posting rules. You can also post in therapuetic for a fee of $10. I like Craigslist because of how many hits it gets so it's always a winner for people who are just starting up and have small businesses. You will get calls from here. I've gotten up to 20 a day.
Backpage is also a great website for posting your body rub ads. It is not completely free but for all the calls you get it is 100% worth it. They will charge anywhere from $1-$5 per massage ad you post in the therapeutic section. You will need to check them periodically during the day as backpage has a history of taking your ad down and making you pay them again to repost. But all in all backpage has some of the best traffic for the business.
TheEroticReview is a website you can also post on, but not advisable because mostly everyone that goes there is expecting that you do more than just a legal massage. If you do post an ad here, I would suggest that you at least put non-sensual, or non-sexual, in the ad so that no one expects you to be doing that at all.
Adult Search is also good, it doesn't receive nearly the amount of traffic but it's free to advertise and you will be able to get at least 10 calls a day from here. They will also allow you to post a link to your website if you have one, unlike Backpage.
MyProvider is good, however you need to fill out paperwork and pay to even be considered. It could cost up to $60. The best part is that even the people who come to the site also need to fill out paperwork with personal information about themselves so this is relatively safe. Never let your guard down though.
CityVibe is great. They charge $1 to post but I've gotten anywhere from 5 - 10 calls a day from here. This really has good traffic, but here again you need to be specific with your ad and let people know what exactly you do or do not allow.
Naughty Reviews is a cool website where you will be able to build a profile, and advertise your website all for completely free. Plus, your clients will be able to leave you reviews on your body rubs. I think that's probably the coolest part about the whole website, but again you will need to add in your ad that this is non sensual or non sexual.
BodyRubUSA.com is a fantastic website you can also post on at very affordable prices. The best part is that you will not get ghosted or flagged, you pay and your ad stays up no matter what.

I would strongly encourage you to use your skills in searching online for yourself. When
conducting your search, use the keywords your interested in....for example if you are looking for
free advertising type in 'places to advertise for free'. Use your basic guerrilla marketing tactics,
like Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace. Follow, Follow, Follow. That's important. The more people
you follow, the more people will follow you, like you, and add you to their list of friends or
followers.Use every free site to post on that you can find. You might think that these sites don't
matter but they are important. Craigslist and SalesSpider are two examples. BodyRubUSA.com is also
another site which is very effective and affordable to post on. Keep in mind that there are
laws and regulations to starting your own massage business. There are no out of pocket
costs. Every state is different. Call your local liscensing branch for businesses to find out what
they are. Generally all states require you to have a liscence and training to have a massage
business.
