I named my practice Massage Reimagined for several reasons. The obvious reason was to reimagine the client experience. However, just as importantly, I wanted to reimagine the massage therapist’s experience. You will see that this is a very different opportunity than what most employers are offering. We are going on our 6th year, and the only therapists who have left have either moved out of the area or opened their own practice, with my full blessing and support. I even keep them on our website with links to their new practices.
You do need some serious skills, techniques, and a highly developed therapeutic rationale to work here – but those can always be learned and improved upon – And I have hired someone right out of school before. The most important things for me at this point are the intention in, and the quality of, your touch. How creative and intuitive you can be, and your ability to focus on delivering the best client experience possible every time.
You also need to be a lifetime learner and improver. I offer a lot of free continuing education and fly some pretty special people in a couple of times a year to give my team private training. I will also challenge you to grow as a therapist and person at every chance that I get, which sounds great in theory, but honestly just does not work for some people.
This year, I have been going through the book, Unreasonable Hospitality, with my staff. Even though it is about the fine dining industry, it has a lot to say about how we can treat each other as well as our clients. It will also give you an idea of the culture I am trying to create at Massage Reimagined.
If all of this sounds compelling, please reach out and talk to me, or one of my therapists about the possibilities.
Take care

Currently, new staff members make at least $50 per service-hour on weekdays and $60 per service-hour on weekends as well as $100 per hour for outcall (if they want to do those). This is in addition to tips. We also pay you your full expected pay for any late cancellations or no-shows.
We will work together to find the best schedule for you that works for the practice and other staff members. You do not need to be here if you are not scheduled, we do not do any walk-in appointments. You take days off and vacations when you want forthe most part.
Plenty of it! We fly in some very special massage therapists/teachers each year to train our staff privately at no cost to them. In addition, our staff can take almost any of the classes that we put on at our massage school, most of which are taught by our founder, Joe Lavin, who is a very gifted therapist and teacher.
We encourage staff trades and allow you to schedule them at either of our practices whenever you want to. You can schedule massages for yourself at 50% of price whenever you want. We will also pay for your trades when you work a certain amount of hours each month.
We want to work with the best therapists possible, but often, we find that the best therapists already have a full-time caseload or commitment to another practice. So we created the guest therapist position so that these talented therapists can drop into one of our practices one or two days a week.
Joe Lavin, our founder, will personally mentor staff members if they want to be mentored. He will mentor you in terms of your bodywork, personal and professional development, and even on how to run your own professioanl massage practice.
We only send you an update when we have something really interesting to say…
