I am just about to sign on with Massage Center in Thousand Oaks CA (do you know of this school ?). I am 51 and finally looking and willing to do what I have for so long wanted to do. Needing a supplementry income has opened the doors once again to the possibilities. I've had a Cosmetology license but have only dabbled in the field over the years, but now with adding Massage Therapy I am thinking it could give me an edge. My only concern after completion is being able to only work this part time in the evenings and weekends since I need to continue with my full time day employment that is unrelated. Do you think it can be lucrative enough during these hours? I would like this to eventually be my main source of income. I can so visualize this happening. What do you think? Thank you for your time.

I am doing a post on paying for school coming up, but just understand that it depends a lot of the school. Schools offer different programs, for instance a 500-hour certificate as opposed to an 800-hour program. Obviously the costs are going to be more for the 800-hour program. Most programs run about a year long. Come back regularly and read the blog to get more answers to your questions. Thanks for your comment and best of luck Laurie! Hi Laurie,

I have an appointment to meet this week at a school in CT and I am eager to begin the classes (especially since my job has been cut effective immediately) ~ I'll know more about cost and timeframe after my appointment, but wondered if you could let me know roughly the overall cost and general timeframe from your experience ~ hoping to go to school full time.
