I have seen threads on this before but I wanted to ask this question in terms of a specific ammount of hours.
In an 8 hour working day I probably spend at least half of that time doing massages. That is to say that there are days where I can be schedualed to do (for example) 5 20 minute back massages and 3 45 minute full body massages.
The tutors at my college tell me that I should be doing no more than 3 hours of massage a day both in terms of my own health and safety and in terms of insurance (insurance relating to my employer I presume?)
I feel ok doing lots of massage. Like I don't feel terrible from it even though I wouldn't mind doing less if that makes sense?
I'm guessing that doing lots of massage in a day is the sort of thing that feels fine at first but might catch up with you later?
I like doing massage so don't get me wrong. I've always understood that it's a good way to get your foot in the door in terms of the spa/beauty industry before you progress onto other treatments.
What are your thoughts?
ETA: also, does the 3 hour limit include massage treatments where you are sat down, for example head and foot massages?
