Independent Contractor & 1099 (you operate your own business)

Job Description

About the Opportunity

We’re building a calm, professional, multi-disciplinary wellness hub where independent practitioners can thrive. We’re seeking a Licensed Massage Therapist who wants a clean, consistent clinical environment, a strong patient experience, and optional opportunities to collaborate with complementary providers (chiro, mind-body therapies like craniosacral/reiki/acupressure, biofeedback, and DPC partners).

This is a space + ecosystem opportunity—not an employee role. You maintain your own business, rates, and clinical decision-making.


What You’ll Do

  • Provide exceptional massage therapy and bodywork tailored to client goals (relaxation, recovery, pain support, nervous system support, etc.)

  • Create a consistent client experience (intake, consent, session plan, aftercare)

  • Maintain professional documentation and appropriate boundaries

  • Follow clinic facility standards for room turnover, hygiene, and shared spaces


How the Independent Contractor Model Works

Because independent contractor status hinges heavily on control and independence, this role is designed so you retain autonomy in how you practice and run your business.

You will:

  • Run your own business entity, set your own fees, and manage your clinical services

  • Carry your own insurance, licensing, and professional requirements

  • Use our space via a fixed rent / fixed room-block agreement (no percentage-of-collections model)

We will:

  • Provide a professional clinic environment and a system for consistent patient experience

  • Offer fixed-fee supports such as directory listing, shared campaigns, laundry/linen (as available), and operations support


What We Provide

  • Furnished, professional treatment/consult rooms in a growing, multi-provider clinic

  • Shared amenities (waiting area, utilities/Wi-Fi, facility standards, signage standards)

  • A collaborative clinic ecosystem (co-care opportunities, workshop/events calendar, shared content themes)

  • Clear clinic standards for safety and hygiene aligned with outpatient best practices


How to Apply

To apply, please submit:

  1. Resume/CV

  2. References (2–3 professional references)

  3. Business Plan (brief is fine)

Business plan prompts (keep it short):

  • Your modality focus + ideal clients

  • Your preferred weekly availability (days/times)

  • Your 90-day plan to build and retain clients

  • How you contribute to a collaborative clinic culture


Interview Process (2 Steps)

  1. Virtual interview (fit, schedule, clinic model, goals)

  2. In-person interview + hands-on session (technique, communication, client experience)

Job Qualifications

Requirements

Must have:

  • Active Ohio Massage Therapist license (State Medical Board of Ohio)

  • Current liability insurance appropriate for massage therapy

  • Professionalism, reliability, and strong communication skills

  • Comfort operating independently (scheduling, payments, client communication)

Preferred:

  • Experience with clinical/therapeutic bodywork (sports, myofascial, lymphatic, craniosacral support, etc.)

  • Interest in collaborating within a holistic ecosystem (without compromising autonomy)
