Really need some more opnions on this please, thanks sorry so long

What do you think about my guy friend being creative doing his own little foot massage/spa thing? he is very good at foot massage and even knows how to paint toes ive let him do mine before. hes set up everything in a extra room at his place and that would be the spa room and would be like his own little lemonade stand type thing, a foot soak/bath and 25/30 minute foot massage topped off with a pedi, he has the supplies to do them, cuticle stick,etc..

hes a young guy of course keeps things professional not a creeper or gay just loves making people feel good and this could be a neat little sidejob to make a little money during rough economic times esp since girls love foot massages. he has it priced at 5-8$ to start for a good hook, very cheep but good service esp the massage. plus some people dont like paying alot or doing it themselves and would still like to be pampered. Will network/advertise/friend request on myspace/facebook, profile has pics of the little spa setup and pic of him to show who he is of course. So would u maybe book him? thanks..

Can I fix my torn ligament/tendon after a long time?

Hello everyone. I hurt myself on a motorcycle about 4 years ago but didn’t go to a doctor because I had no insurance and it didn’t hurt much. However, lately it hurts me a little, especially after benching in the gym. It is very bearable but annoying. When I tense my muscle it feels like something in my shoulder is jumping into place. Is it possible to fix whatever is torn? If its either ligament or tendon?
Thanks in advance.




pain in lower back and thigh after massage?

following a back massage, i now have quite a lot of pain in my lower back and also the top of my left thigh, which also feels quite numb. will this go away by itself? it has been 3 days now since my back rub.




Ok, so I want to open a massage business, at first maybe have a part-time job as a massage-therapist and also go to customers in my free time. I have some questions about that:will I be able to find a job in US if I was trained in Europe ? Are there any legal things I need to know before making money as I go as a therapist at customers’ places ? Do you people have any ideas, suggestions, tips about how to launch the business A.S.A.P.? Does it count if you are a beautiful woman, with great shapes, or people go for anybody? (Considering that there is no other difference in the quality of massage between a beautiful/hot woman and a regular woman/man)

Just i am one and doing sessions on people from my home. It involves stretching people in all ways that are like yoga stretches but without any effort on the patients part. It’s brilliant and l need it myself having a bad lower back, which it helps tremendously. I call it lazy man’s Yoga. It uses fulcrums a fair bit and includes pressure points on muscles and tendons.




What are some good paying trades? (Vocational)?

I’m at a point in my life where i cant go to college. My life’s goal is to end up in college. For now though, I want to make bigger money faster. I just graduated high school a few weeks ago and I’m really interested in learning a trade like say being a barber, or phlebotomy.. What vocational careers are there that I could look into? The thing is I don’t want to live the minimum wage life forever because i work at Mcdonalds and it’s difficult. I’m also really interested in therapeutic massage. Is this a good trade? Will I really have to only take a few months or weeks worth of school or will i end up having to further my education into a degree? This is just a temporary career choice. Please help me? Any career advice is appreciated :) And please don’t tell me to go to just go to college.I have certain personal reasons for not being able to go at the moment, but like i said, It’s a goal, and not a dream to end up in college in the next 2 years.

Which is better Redken or Aveda?

I am trying to find a good shampoo, and I’ve narrowed it down to Redken’s all soft shampoo and Aveda’s shampure shampoo. I have thin hair but a lot of it. I have been using Biolage hydrotherapy, but it’s starting to weigh my hair down. I use a lot of heat tools, so I was wondering which one would keep my hair moisturized, and not weigh it down.
