		<description>Darren, I Thought  you brought up good points. We have a ways to go to scatter the sexists of jobs and burnout but nicely stated what we can do as holistic practitioners.</description>

		<description>Darren,  thanks for the post.  It is good to know that we're not alone.  I'm a male therapist as well, and it is hard to accept that we have a completely different set of realities in the massage world.  Business builds slowly, sexism and gender stereotyping are working against us.  The most important thing to remember is your craft.  Keep perfecting what you do and they will come.  Personally, in my first 3 years, I traded off with every RMT I could to learn what they did right.  I took 6 courses in different modalities too.  It will come.  Best of luck.</description>
