Built for Louisville massage therapists

The Louisville metro crosses the Ohio River, and its personal care count does too: Jefferson County had 81 of the 117 employer businesses, with Clark County, Indiana, at 11 and Bullitt County at 8. That is 8.5 per 100,000 residents, 181st of 387 metros. Under half, 49 percent, were under five staff, well under the national metro median of 65 percent, which points to more mid-sized spas and studios. The health practitioner class, home to massage therapists' offices, is bigger at 159. Teams of therapists need per-person hours and services, and that is how BookAndGo sets up a studio.

Jefferson County runs 10.3 personal care businesses per 100,000 residents, Clark County, Indiana, 8.8. Clark grew 5.3 percent from the 2020 base, faster than Jefferson's 1.4. Across the metro it is about one employer business for every 11,800 residents, so a therapist with a strong booking page stands out more than in a denser market. A therapist with a Highlands room and Thursday visits in Jeffersonville or New Albany can serve both states from one calendar without double-booking a drive across the bridge.

Within Kentucky, Jefferson County ranks 9th of 58 counties with 20,000 or more residents for personal care businesses per 100,000 people, at 10.3; Nelson County is at 10.4 and Hardin County is at 9.8.

Measured as employer personal care businesses per 100,000 residents, Louisville sits between San Luis Obispo, CA at 8.5 and Santa Rosa, CA at 8.5, the metros ranked either side of it. For massage therapists' and other health practitioners' offices, Louisville has 11.5 per 100,000, next to Fort Wayne, IN at 11.6 and Oxnard, CA at 11.5.

The figures cover all twelve counties or equivalents in the Louisville/Jefferson County, KY-IN metro, among them Clark County, IN, Floyd County, IN and Harrison County, IN. Massage therapists' own offices are counted in a second Census class, offices of all other miscellaneous health practitioners (NAICS 621399), which had 159 establishments in the Louisville metro. By county, the health practitioner class counted 102 in Jefferson County, 14 in Floyd County, IN and 11 in Clark County, IN. Of those 159, 125 were under five staff.

The largest county counts were Jefferson County (81), Clark County, IN (11) and Bullitt County (8). That puts 69 percent of the metro total in Jefferson County. Sorted by staff numbers, 57 had fewer than five employees, 35 had five to nine, 19 had ten to nineteen, 4 had twenty to forty-nine and the other 2 had fifty or more.

Treatment plans can run on recurring weekly or every-other-week sessions, each one booked and reminded without the client rebooking. Set exact start times, such as 9:00, 10:30 and 12:00, and BookAndGo never squeezes a client into the gap between them, so the time you keep for notes and resetting the room stays yours.
