Massage Apprenticeship
If you are a Massage Therapist who graduated from an accredited massage program and has gotten your license within the last year or so, and you are interested in building up your knowledge and hands-on experience in a structured way under the guidance of an experienced massage educator, consider applying for our six-month Paid Massage Therapy Apprenticeship.
We are looking for LMTs who have excellent basic massage skills, intellectual curiosity, and a strong desire to build competence in working with:
-
Clients with complex or serious medical conditions (cardiac conditions, surgery, life-altering disease or injuries, cancer, fibromyalgia, etc.)
-
Clients who are medically fragile (bruise easily, use oxygen, have medical implants or replacement joints, clot easily)
-
Clients with psychological, neurological, and/or emotional complications or fragility (PTSD, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, stroke, dementia)
This program is a paid internship. Apprentice will be paid per massage performed, as well as for each hands-on training session. Apprentice will be required to do certain training modules (such as infection control, or working with people with fibromyalgia), and others may be determined by the preferences and strengths of the Apprentice.
You will be utilizing free continuing education courses through your AMTA/ABMP membership in conjunction with structured training sessions with the LMTs of Patient Relaxation.
