The Massage Company
Massage Company does bad things!

Health & Medicine

Just thought I would add a note regarding a little company that should cease to exist; The Massage Company. It is a copycat version of Massage Envy, only on a much smaller level. While Massage Envy charges a monthly fee that includes one free massage a month (causing you to break even), The Massage Company charges a yearly fee. After one massage at the member price, you can either join at $199 for the year (plus $149 for any family members), or you can defer on to non-member pricing. The non-member pricing is, of course, significantly higher. The Massage Company has a very high turn over of massage therapists, as they do not pay them well. The Massage Therapist only receives $19.50 for every hour long massage and $27.50 for 90 minute massages. If you join, your therapist receives $10 and $5 if a family member joins. If you renew, the therapist makes no commission.in addition to this, the company offers no benefits whatsoever. They do not run any kind of background check on their employees, usually not even calling references. Most of the therapists and the Massage Co. Are either not very good at what they do, not very experienced or have managed to build a big enough following to keep them around. I would say that about 80% of their therapists do not make it through the first year. Now for the kicker. If a massage therapist is accused of any kind of sexual assault, THEY ARE NOT FIRED. Not on the first complaint, thats for sure. Come to think of it, they are usually not fired until the 5th or 6th complaint. I have heard complaints ranging from a male massage therapist touching a womans breast to a male therapist placing his package in a womans hand. Out of respect, I will not use any names. I will tell you though, that the employees have sex in the massage beds when the clients are not there. No, seriously, they do. The therapists are issued there room for the day and they do in it just what they please! Just steer clear of the Massage Company I would either find an MT working with a Chiropractic office or go to Massage Envy. Massage Envy is a huge corporation, while the Massage Company is run by a little bitty foreign man named Lawrence Whitnall. He not only talks badly about the clients when they walk out the door, if he likes their appearance, he pathetically hits on them.
