Industry crisis.
2025-06-16 20:02:38
In recent years, the industry has seen a growing number of massage therapists addicted to drugs. These people not only delay payments and fail to repay debts, but have turned “not paying back money” into a behavior some imitate, creating an extremely harmful culture of unpaid debts. Operators already work hard, and being forced to act as debt collectors on top of that is unreasonable.
What’s even more serious is that those who are addicted and use drugs almost every day have long since exhausted their bodies and could suddenly die at any time.
They may die in a studio or in a shop, leaving debts unpaid and the person gone.
The money can’t be recovered and the business bears all the risk — a burden nobody can afford.
🔺 We call on the industry:
If you don’t want bad debts, do not hire massage therapists who use drugs.
No tolerance, no cover-ups — only then can this vicious cycle be stopped from spreading.
Let honesty and safety be the most basic bottom line of this industry.
