GLOW BIRTH & BODY - 4901 Lawton Ave, Oakland, CA 94609 USA | Direct: +1 (510) 516.4569
Job Description
Glow Birth and Body is currently seeking an experienced massage therapist interested in women's health and pregnancy.
Requirements:
Desire to work in a specialized practice built around educating clients as well as providing fantastic bodywork experiences; therapist must be very comfortable discussing sensitive women's health issues and treating pregnant women
2+ years massage experience
Training and experience providing deep tissue massage
Ability to do 4 deep tissue massages in a day
Appropriate state and/or city massage licensure
Additional Information:
We are a small, specialized practice, treating women at any age and stage of life with deep tissue massage. Glow is known for its prenatal massage, and our Yelp reviews are an indication of how much we love our work. Our practice is located in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland, on a residential street with easy and free parking.
We offer as much hands-on training as a talented therapist needs to become more confident with side-lying prenatal massage. In fact, it's one of our favorite aspects of the practice: our whole team participates in training a new therapist, so it's a beautiful sharing of techniques and philosophies.
Our facility is a dream environment for bodywork, custom designed by a massage therapist to be ultimately comfortable for both therapist and client: electric tables, steaming towels and built in sound-systems in each room.
We have various shifts available throughout the week and weekend; and prefer a commitment of at least 2 shifts a week consisting of 3-4 massages each or 1 longer shift of 6 massages if that's your preference. Please enquire for more details on scheduling.
If you are interested in applying for this role, contact Shanna through this post with your resumé. For more general information on our practice, visit www.glowbirthandbody.com
Testimonials from Current Staff:
I've been working as a Glow massage therapist for 8 years. The warm sense of community that I feel with my co-workers and our amazing clients is immeasurable. The fact that we work with parents from before conception until long after their babies are born is a testament to the amazing bodywork that we provide through every step of life.

I have worked with Glow since the end of 2019, and since the beginning this working relationship has been a blessing. As a birth worker and a bodyworker, Glow has been a wonderful space to hone and expand my skills working with the population I most love to serve. The skills I honed using their trademark techniques were some of the best skills I’ve learned as a bodyworker and allowed me to offer high-quality treatments for extended hours without injury. Working with the Founder and Director, Sara, is the cherry on top of the cake! Sara is so wonderful and works incredibly hard to make sure her team is supported and that we are given the resources we need to pursue the work that we love. I highly recommend joining the team at Glow!
