Built for New Orleans massage therapists
New Orleans counted 74 employer businesses in personal care, 7.7 per 100,000 residents and 219th of 387 metros, and Jefferson Parish had more of them than Orleans Parish, 38 to 29. The metro's population estimate fell 4.1 percent from the 2020 base to 2024, so practices are competing for a client base that is not growing. The health practitioner class had 70. In a flat market, keeping regulars matters more than finding new ones, and recall emails that invite a client back after their usual interval do that quietly.
Jefferson Parish runs 8.9 personal care businesses per 100,000 residents and Orleans Parish 7.9. Both lost people from the 2020 base to 2024, Jefferson 3.1 percent and Orleans 5.6 percent. That is roughly one employer business for every 13,100 residents across the metro, a market where practices win on reliability and rebooking rather than new arrivals. A therapist with a Metairie room and Uptown home visits can list both as locations with their own times, so Jefferson Parish clients book the room and Orleans Parish clients book a visit.
Within Louisiana, Jefferson Parish ranks 4th of 43 parishes with 20,000 or more residents for personal care businesses per 100,000 people, at 8.9; Lafayette Parish is at 9.2 and Vermilion Parish is at 8.7.
Measured as employer personal care businesses per 100,000 residents, New Orleans sits between Durham, NC at 7.7 and Lewiston, ID at 7.6, the metros ranked either side of it. For massage therapists' and other health practitioners' offices, New Orleans has 7.2 per 100,000, next to Greenville, NC at 7.3 and St. Louis, MO at 7.2.
The figures cover all seven counties or equivalents in the New Orleans-Metairie, LA metro, among them Jefferson Parish, Orleans Parish and Plaquemines Parish. Massage therapists' own offices are counted in a second Census class, offices of all other miscellaneous health practitioners (NAICS 621399), which had 70 establishments in the New Orleans metro. Within the health practitioner class, Jefferson Parish had 39 and Orleans Parish 26. Of those 70, 59 were under five staff.
Jefferson Parish had 38 and Orleans Parish had 29, so 51 percent of the metro total is in Jefferson Parish. By headcount, 48 had fewer than five employees, 10 had five to nine, 12 had ten to nineteen and the other 4 had twenty or more.
New clients fill in a health history form on their phone before they arrive, and you can mark it as required so nobody reaches the table without one. Confirmations and email reminders stay neutral and professional, with no emoji and no marketing tone, which suits a wellness practice.
