Mantis Massage: The Massage Therapy Business in Austin, Texas | Kyra Matos

There's a growing demand for massage therapy as more and more of the general public have accepted that massages help improve overall health. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics the growth rate of massage therapist will be 19% through 2018. Although a tremendous amount of both classroom and real world training goes into become a licensed massage therapist, there is not a lot of training about how to start your own massage busines and how to make it a success.  Being a great therapist does not necessarily translate directly to being a great business owner. To help us dissect the ins and outs of starting a massage business, on today's episode of Small Business War Stories we talk with Kyra Gerhard of Mantis Massage.
