Meet Landon, one of our talented Massage Therapists from our Tampa location! Landon’s multiple massage specialties make him an excellent therapist for those looking for Deep Tissue, Swedish, and Therapeutic massages. We recently asked Landon a few questions about his Massage Studio experience, and why he loves his job:
How long have you been in the massage industry, and how long specifically with Massage Studio?
I have been a licensed massage therapist for a little over four years, and have been with Massage Studio since February 2017!
What inspired you to start a career in massage?
I was inspired by the relaxed atmosphere of a massage studio and the passion to heal others.
What are some of your specific day-to-day responsibilities?
Some of my daily responsibilities consist of working with our guests to get an understanding of what type of massage is best/needed for them. I listen to guest feedback to ensure the most efficient massage is being performed, as well as using biological and anatomical knowledge of the human body.
What are your massage specialty areas?
I would say my main specialty is Deep Tissue and trigger-point massages. I also perform a softer touch with Swedish and Therapeutic massages.
What’s your favorite part of your job?
Easily the satisfaction of a happy guest. Even better when they come back and see me again for more sessions!
What made you choose Massage Studio?
I was fresh out of massage school and Massage Studio was the first place I applied to. I was eager to get my career started and so I was very adamant about nailing this interview. I was new to the industry and had a lot to learn. Luckily, I've had all the help I needed at Massage Studio! Thank you to all the therapists, guest coordinators, and management that helped me get to where I am today!
How has Massage Studio supported your career goals?
Massage Studio helps my career goals by keeping me sharp in the field and providing a platform where I can practice massaging to further hone my craft.
What do you like to do outside of work?
Outside of work, I like to go for bike rides and be around friends and family. I also take care of two very needy cats!
