ME may have flooded your area, but if you are a good, deep tissue specialist, try getting on with one of the hospitals or rehab facilities in the area.
One of the things we had to learn was to do a massage blindfolded. This let our hands be our eyes. We had to feel the muscle, picture it in our mind, be able to properly drape and move around without falling on our face. To this day, most of the massage I have my eyes closed, letting my hands see for my eyes. So being a massage therapist was a good choice for you. Don't throw that away. Remeber, you fix what the $39 massage can't.
