Job Summary
The Health Doctor is a chiropractic-led health and wellness clinic in Witney, Oxfordshire, looking for a reliable and personable Massage Therapist / Sports Massage Therapist to join our team on a self-employed associate basis.
The role is ideal for someone confident in sports massage, deep tissue massage and soft tissue therapy, with dry needling/acupuncture training desirable but not essential.
This is a part-time role starting at a minimum of 8 hours per week across regular shifts, with scope to increase as the diary builds. The clinic provides the room, booking system, client flow, administration support, agreed supplies, and internal referrals, so you can focus on delivering excellent client care.
The diary may start quieter initially while the service grows, but we have a new chiropractic associate joining and a marketing campaign in action, so we are looking for someone who wants to build with the clinic long-term.
