[quote=Anonymous]You typically tip a server at a restaurant 15-20% of the bill. They spend about 5-10 minutes with you out of an hour meal. A massage therapist, who trains on average 600-650 hours of school, 70 hours of clinical experience, on going required continuing education, is responsible for discerning safe practice, required to carry a state license and liability insurance, is CPR certified and spends every single moment of that 60 minutes healing, relaxing, de stressing and using their extensive knowledge to relieve your pain. In the discount member based massage franchises they receive apox 15-17 hour. They are limited on how many massages they can do in a day. Take home pay averages about 300- 350 A week without your tips so they mostly all must keep a second job. The tipping above is nonsense. I am a massage therapist and have personally experienced this. If you know your therapist has done well , do as you do with your favorite bartender-- overtip!!![/quote]
