The job of a massage therapist or an esthetician often involves traveling.  It can be difficult to gain new clients by just hoping for walk-in traffic, no matter how good the location may be.  Performing outcall appointments and bringing mobile equipment to local events can be an excellent way to drum up business.

Transporting equipment can be a difficult task.  Even portable, folding tables are still heavy and cumbersome.  Buying a separate kit for outcalls is highly recommended for anyone who thinks that they are going to be traveling even fairly regularly.  It is very important for massage therapists, estheticians, and other spa professionals, to be consistent, which is why having a quality travel kit is crucial.
