After reviewing 25,000+ resumes for massage therapists over the years we can safely say there are a few things that stand out to us, including education (attending top massage schools) and the number of hours spent during such, continued education and/or real-world experience practicing specific modalities (lymphatic drainage, sports massage, shiatsu, etc.), and ultimately a true passion for the art of massage. Showing that in a resume = special.
