Meet Erica L. Hawes Today we’d like to introduce you to Erica L. Hawes. Erica, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story. My journey as a Massage Therapist started in 2009. I graduated high school in May and entered into massage therapy school in September 2009. My ultimate goal was to become a licensed massage therapist to pay my way through college to pursue a doctorate as a Chiropractor, Physical Therapist, or Alternative Medicine. I knew I wanted to pursue a doctorate in some form of Alternative Medicine since my 9th grade year. I also knew that it would be a long journey ahead with the years that it takes to complete that degree. I am independent, so I decided that I would become a massage therapist to work to support myself while attending college. After graduating from massage therapy school, taking and passing my state board exam, I obtained my massage therapy license in 2010. I did not go to college as I had planned. I decided to open up a small massage therapy office (GA MASSAGE SPA by ERICA) in Augusta, Georgia to build my clientele. I was located next to a Chiropractors office. I was also doing outbound massage therapy services which included the Atlanta, Augusta and Savannah area. After a little over a year, I closed my office, moved to Savannah, GA to attend college to pursue my degree. I realized that my talents as a massage therapist kept me extremely busy and my pursuit for a degree was put on hold again, I am quite fond of the specialties that massage therapy entails. Massage Therapy is considered a complementary alternative medicine and is very lucrative. I travel throughout the state of Georgia to render my services. I specialize in most aspects of massage therapy for health and wellness in collaboration with businesses, events, health fairs, medical and sports. Lymphatic massage is my specialty and one of the most therapeutic massages in demand due to its medical necessity. I receive a tremendous amount of gratitude and respect for helping people in pain. I enjoy my profession as a massage therapist and I will continue to bestow my therapeutic relief of pain and promote wellness. I have plans to further my massage therapy endeavors.
