Massage Therapist — Women’s Health

About Aspire Women’s Wellness

Aspire Women’s Wellness is a functional and holistic women's health practice focused on personalized care for hormonal, metabolic, sexual, gynecologic, and pelvic health concerns.

We are seeking a Massage Therapist to join our collaborative provider network as a 1099 independent contractor, with a particular interest in supporting women with endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, abdominal tension, and related pelvic health concerns.

This is an opportunity for a massage therapist who is passionate about women's health and wants to work collaboratively with a provider who regularly cares for women with endometriosis, pelvic pain, hormonal concerns, and sexual health conditions.

Position Overview

The Massage Therapist will provide therapeutic massage services tailored to women's health needs, with a particular focus on abdominal and surrounding soft-tissue work for patients with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.

We are looking for someone who is comfortable working with the abdomen and is interested in developing or expanding their expertise in endometriosis-informed massage therapy.

The therapist will practice independently within their scope of practice while collaborating with Aspire Women’s Wellness when appropriate.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide individualized therapeutic massage based on each patient's symptoms, goals, and treatment needs.
• Provide abdominal massage and soft-tissue techniques when clinically appropriate and within the therapist's scope of practice.
• Work with patients experiencing:
• Endometriosis
• Chronic pelvic pain
• Abdominal and pelvic muscle tension
• Scar tissue and postoperative tissue restrictions when appropriate
• Myofascial tension
• Pain associated with menstruation
• Pelvic and abdominal discomfort
• Musculoskeletal contributors to pelvic pain
• Incorporate appropriate external abdominal, hip, low-back, gluteal, and surrounding soft-tissue techniques.
• Modify treatment based on pain levels, sensitivity, menstrual cycle, surgical history, and patient tolerance.
• Provide a trauma-informed and consent-based approach, particularly when working around the abdomen, pelvis, and other sensitive areas.
• Educate patients regarding body awareness, relaxation, breathing, positioning, and home strategies as appropriate within scope.
• Communicate professionally with Aspire providers regarding relevant treatment recommendations or concerns when appropriate and with appropriate patient authorization.
• Maintain accurate and timely documentation as required for the therapist's independent practice.
• Recognize when symptoms warrant medical evaluation or referral back to the patient's medical provider.

Endometriosis & Abdominal Massage

This is an important component of the position.

Aspire is specifically looking for a massage therapist who is willing and comfortable providing abdominal massage for patients with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.

Experience with endometriosis is strongly preferred, but we are open to a therapist who has a strong foundation in therapeutic abdominal work and is interested in additional training or education related to endometriosis.

The ideal therapist understands that patients with endometriosis may have complex pain patterns, abdominal and pelvic muscle guarding, scar tissue, and heightened sensitivity. Treatment should be individualized and never performed through significant pain.

All abdominal and sensitive-area treatment should be performed with clear informed consent, appropriate draping, professional boundaries, and respect for the patient's comfort and autonomy.

Collaborative Care

Aspire takes a multidisciplinary approach to women's health. The Massage Therapist may collaborate with:

• Women's health providers
• Pelvic floor physical therapists
• Mental health professionals
• Dietitians
• Health coaches
• Other allied health professionals
• Specialists involved in the patient's care

The goal is to provide patients with coordinated care that addresses the multiple factors that can contribute to chronic pelvic and abdominal pain.

Ideal Candidate

We are looking for someone who is:

• A licensed Massage Therapist in good standing.
• Passionate about women's health.
• Comfortable working with the abdomen and surrounding soft tissues.
• Interested in treating women with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
• Trauma-informed and highly respectful of patient boundaries.
• Comfortable discussing sensitive health concerns professionally.
• Warm, compassionate, and patient-centered.
• Interested in collaborative care.
• Willing to continue learning about endometriosis and women's pelvic health.

Preferred Experience

• Abdominal massage
• Myofascial release
• Scar tissue mobilization
• Endometriosis-informed massage
• Chronic pain
• Women's health
• Postoperative care
• Pelvic health
• Trauma-informed bodywork

Additional training in abdominal massage, visceral manipulation, endometriosis, or pelvic health is a plus.

The contractor will:

• Maintain appropriate patient documentation.
• Be responsible for their own taxes and business expenses.
• Provide or maintain the equipment and supplies necessary for their services unless otherwise agreed upon.
• Maintain compliance with applicable professional, privacy, and healthcare requirements.

Compensation

Compensation will be determined by the independent contractor agreement and may be structured on a per-visit or per-service basis, depending on the services provided.

Schedule and location will be determined by mutual agreement between the contractor and Aspire Women’s Wellness.

The goal is to create a flexible collaboration that allows the therapist to maintain their independent practice while becoming a trusted referral partner for Aspire patients.
