What is an average salary for a massage Therapist working for a spa?

I finished my 500 hours and have yet to put it to use in an actual work place… business is slow being a self employed massage therapist.

What is the going rate if the employer is hourly? What would I make an hour on average? What is normal hourly wage to ask for?

i currently work at a spa as a massage therapist. i work on call meaning if i dont have an appointment, i dont go in. i make 40 percent of what the massage costs. we charge 70 for an hour, i get 28 dollars. 50 for a half hour, i get 20.

    Minimum wage, any tips, and 10% of the fees paid for the massage, including body wash/scrub and extra time purchased.

    Varies on the quality & location of the spa. I worked at a hotel spa in San Francisco & we made $30/massage. I have one friend who worked at a 5-star spa & made $50/massage & another friend who also worked at a 5-star spa & made $25/massage.
