Hmm, so now your classifying professions of who you deem a professional or not.
If your gardener not a professional in his work, how about your local auto mechanic. Because she works in clean atmosphere of a hospital , you elevate the term professional. She is highly trained preforming a mechanical duty and is paid accordingly.
The real premise of comments here is that she is working full time on her feet. Not part time in running store. Or contracted up to sit home between massages and workouts watching Netflix .
