“Come join our Team!

We are looking for a skilled and motivated massage therapist to join our small curated team of bodyworkers.

Our group is small, practicing in the Lake Merritt district of Oakland. It is an established practice of 10 years and the internal mission of the practice is to create a space for bodyworkers to enjoy the freedom and autonomy of working in private practice while having a community of supportive therapists. Therapists usually take home between $45-$60/hr + tip. We offer mentorship and support to help newer massage therapists grow their practice and business skill sets.

We individually set our own schedules and rates. We also are focused on being a team as well as a supportive community for one another. Pre-Covid (and hopefully soon again) we held regular gatherings to connect and problem solve for our practice and our clients. You can learn more about our practice through our website at www.strategicbodywork.com.

We are very intentional about who we bring in, as such it may involve multiple interviews to make sure everyone in the practice is aligned. We are looking for a therapist who is excited and ready to take on at least 8hrs of bodywork a week.

Preferred qualifications:

  • You have training and confidence in additional modalities (including eastern) that compliment your experience with Swedish and Deep Tissue.
  • You have completed or have started the Covid vaccination process.

Studio amenities:

  • A beautiful office on the second floor of a two-story building centrally located on Grand Ave. shared with mixed modality practitioners. They are separate from our business but we often share and refer clients.

  • We provide sheets, heated table topper and lotion. Cups available to share if you provide cupping to your clients.
  • Spacious waiting room with well attended plants and lots of natural light.
