Low-Stress Jobs: Massage Therapy, Medical Records and MoreAugust 13, 2007
Contrary to popular opinion, there are jobs out there that can be relatively stress-free--and they can even relieve the stress of your other daily obligations. If your current job is taking its toll on your peace of mind, it's time to make a career change.
Medical RecordsMedical records technicians are currently enjoying sky-high demand, normal work hours and increasing salary. It's an important job: every time a patient receives any kind of medical treatment, an accurate record must be maintained. But this quiet career involves minimal patient contact and no demanding on-call schedules.
Massage TherapyConsider the occupational lifestyle of a massage therapist. Massage therapists work one-on-one with people, enriching their lives through healing and comfort. The process of helping others is often therapeutic in itself, resulting in a sense of satisfaction at the end of the day.Professionals trained in massage therapy can work in hospitals, spas, hotels, or doctors' offices. Others set up independent practices and manage their own hours, rates, and business structure. Running your own business allows you to work from home, set your own hours, and create your own relaxed working space. Floral DesignAnother therapeutic, stress-free occupation to consider is floral design. Floral designers select, cut, and arrange live, dried, or silk flowers into bouquets intended to brighten the lives of their clients. Not only is the handling of flowers appealing, but floral designers usually work in small, fragrant flower shops, and one in three is self-employed.Floral designers must be creative and have good interpersonal skills to communicate their ideas to clients. Although big events such as weddings or holidays may require bursts of activity, the lifestyle of floral designers can be as tranquil and sweet as the flowers they arrange.
