The Louisiana Episode

Rebecca Brumfield joins me on The Massage Hodgepodgcast to talk about Louisiana! Yes, the video is a bit choppy, but the audio is clean. This continues my series to chat with a massage therapist from all 50 States. Rebecca’s practice in Baton Rouge is called Vida Pura Spa where she specializes in fire cupping. She also runs a coaching program for other spa and wellness business owners called Badass Bodyworkers. I would highly recommend checking out that site for some great free resources.

Here is a quick conversation overview.

• Massage origin story

• The basics of becoming a massage therapist in Louisiana

• Maintaining a license in your state

• The state of LA right now

• Reopening

• Changes coming to massage post covid

• Where she has been focused during the shutdown

• Converting clients to 90 minutes

• Pivoting a massage practice to a more broad wellness center

• Longevity as a massage therapist

• Fire Cupping
