Job Description

A 9-year established Massage Therapy Studio and herbal apothecary, in Helena, Montana, with a focus on organic and holistic health, is looking for 1-3 Licensed Massage Therapists (LMT) to help its growing practice. Looking for commitments of 1 year or more. Trial period initially. Ideally candidates are hired on a rolling basis over the coming year.

We'd love to help you find housing if you're looking to relocate!

Wild Willow Wellness therapists are focused on providing high quality body work to the Helena community. Its management takes care of client booking, generating clients, and many other basic business operations so that the contracted therapist can do what they do best, provide the best quality massage to clients. Opportunities for working with the apothecary are available as well at various times in the year, though not required. This company’s core values are caring for our community here in Helena, supporting one another, being curious about deepening our practice, and a focus on quality. Bonus if you love the earth and want to do what you can to take care of it while enjoying all it has to offer! Many of us hike, bike, snowshoe, ski, practice yoga and practice mindfulness. All of us are animal lovers - just an aside, but in case you are interested. 😉

Requirements for contractors/employees:

Current Montana state massage therapy license, Professional liability insurance, Montana Independent Contractors License

Strong candidates will have:

-2 years experience as a licensed massage therapist desired but not required with a strong example of good massage skills while in school or just finished. You will need to provide a 1 hour massage ahead of being hired.

For a high-quality therapist just out of school, who wants to be independent in their career, starting at Wild Willow Wellness is a great entry point to the community of Helena. Build a loyal following and the skills needed to run your own practice. There is so much need for bodyworkers here in Helena, but it takes a while to establish yourself.
