I am also an LPN in Canada, we call it RPN here in Ontario. I totally understand how you feel about having to deal with a very stressful job and having to take care of other people needs not just your clients but also the family, the politics in the nursing as well as the management.. so kudos to you for making this video. I appreciate it and I am doing my research in regards to Massage therapy school and thank you for inspiring me to. That it is possible to have a career change and have a peace of mind.

Expression of fluid through incisions is out of scope for LMTs in some areas, it is wound care and should be done by a nurse. Plastic surgery clinics may not really know anything about massage therapy and incorrectly advise patients to get "lymphatic massage drainage" for their post-op care. This is doing patients a disservice.

I understand completely, but do what feels right for you, also I always suggest before switching careers and going to school, go job hunting for that career online in your area and see what the adverage income is. Because jumping from full time to contract work can be like being a fish out of water initially. Thank you for watching and I know you'll do great.

After getting your message therapy license what would you recommend as next steps to become a post op message therapist. And what school did you attend?

MLD is not Massage, MLD does not include any massage techniques. Post operation lymphatic drainage is also not a massage neither involves pushing fluids out of the incision. Look for LANA certified that should be Certified Lymphatic therapist that specializes in post operation.

In my opinion, no therapist should be doing Manual Lymphatic Drainage Therapy (MLD) if they are not certified in it. The only certifying courses/schools in the US are: Klose Training, Academy of Lymphatic Studies, Monarch CE, Vodder School, and ILWTI. After a therapist becomes certified in MLD, they should take classes in Post-Op MLD. The only courses in the US for post-op are from Academy of Lymphatic Studies, Kathleen Lisson's online courses, and Norton School of Lymphatic Therapy. :)

Thank you for sharing this! <3 I am also an RN myself, so its cool to hear that I can relate to that. You mentioned that you run on commission, is that always the case as a LMT. I'm from the midwest and I've seen job postings that showcase a hrly wage but I have heard things being commissioned based as well. Can you share a little bit more about that? Does the setting you choose determine whether or not you will be commission based, any knowledge would be helpful and appreciated! Thank you so much (:

Thank you for watching. Most of the well paying LMT jobs are commission based. The chains are more likely to do hourly. So it all depends on where you decide to work and how they have their payroll set.

To be completely honest, it depends on what you are trying to accomplish and your drive. If your 81k is guaranteed with set hours then I definitely can't say you would get that amount right away in massage. Not to discourage you but I definitely would NOT recommend diving in and expect that much out the gate.

I have been considering going to massage school for several years now, and just as I was getting closer to pull the trigger, and as my best friend went to school and is now completed his program and doing fairly well for himself. I actually ended up fracturing my proximal phalanx of my pinky finger and it healed with a malunion. I had to get several x-rays and CT scans and I feel like my hand has a lot more information and arthritis already setting in. However there is a part of me that thinks maybe Doing that massage therapy program could actually be better for my hand in someway. Because I am getting more exercise for it. I’ve always enjoyed learning about natural alternative remedies through herbalism as well as essential oils. I know they have different techniques where you can limit the use of your hands and also use other parts of your body like your elbows or even bamboo etc. i’m not sure I have such a good opportunity to go to school in Texas because it’s so close to where I’m at. Plus it’s a very affordable program. I just don’t know if I’m ready to commit to that yet. I would look at doing massage more like a side hustle part-time on the evenings and weekends around a full or part-time job at hopefully offers benefits

Hi Dan, Massage is a very physical career. I know some schools may allow you to shadow a class before fully applying. I would suggest doing that before making that commitment, especially with an injury.

I am currently a CNA that just got accepted into an LPN program, and I am considering changing paths to massage therapy… As someone with anxiety, I feel like the more low stress environment of massage therapy might be a better route for me, but I’m worried that if I go into therapy I’ll regret not becoming a nurse and if I go into nursing I’ll regret not being a therapist. Do you have any words of advice, in general, in regards to my concerns
