Practice massage therapy in a workplace designed with the therapist in mind

Bodyworks DW Advanced Massage Therapy is an elite team of medical massage therapists in NYC who don't just want a job, they want a massage therapy career. Due to our specialized focus, we continually expand and grow as our clients rave about our work to friends, family and co-workers. We know what it’s like to work in this industry… “factory” environments like many spas and gyms give little thought to creating a rewarding workplace, opting instead to try to get as many clients in and out as possible.

We decided to create something different. Our studio allows time for real long-term professional relationships between therapists and clients. We provide a place where therapists can truly learn, practice, and do the exciting and rewarding work that they dreamed about doing back in massage school.

We are always looking for more therapists to join us. Take a look below at our pre-requisites and apply as a therapist via email by writing a cover letter and attaching your resume. This is an awesome opportunity to work in an environment that specializes in medical massage while being a relaxed, fun, engaging, and fulfilling workplace.
