Clinical Massage London is a client‑centred, evidence‑informed clinic that shares a commitment to compassion, inclusivity, clear communication, and high clinical standards. You’ll share a space with an experienced, independent team of therapists who value teamwork, accountability, and professional growth. Our space is exceptional because we believe every treatment starts with the right environment. We’ve prioritised this through a soothing and relaxing space (soft lighting, calming music, heated and electrically adjustable treatment table, air conditioning), alongside a focus on clinical care.

This makes for an enjoyable experience for both client and therapist.

• This role is ideal for a confident, experienced, and independent‑minded therapist with strong interpersonal skills and a genuine passion for bodywork.
• You will thrive with us if you:
• Are kind, thoughtful, reliable, and self‑driven.
• Communicate clearly and maintain excellent professional boundaries.
• Are comfortable working collaboratively with clients to deliver outcome‑driven treatments.
• Keep detailed clinical reasoning and SOAP notes.
• Uphold the clinic’s shared values.
• Hold up‑to‑date liability insurance and membership with a reputable professional organisation.

• Clinical / Sports / Remedial Massage (Level 5 – required)
• Pregnancy Massage (optional but preferred)
• Manual lymphatic drainage (optional but preferred)
• Chair massage qualification (optional; would be a bonus – ad‑hoc opportunities may arise for one‑off wellbeing days)

Generous flat rates and transparent therapist pay structure.

Appointment lengths from 30 mins up to 120 minutes, with commissions ranging:

• £33 – £75 per treatment for new therapists
• £34 – £78 per treatment for senior therapists

Laundry fee deductions: £3 per appointment (deductible when doing personal taxes)

Therapists keep 100% of tips.

£5 for every unique 5‑star review mentioning them on our business page.

Therapists with recognised chair massage qualifications may be offered corporate and community event work at £40/hour. A clinic massage chair and equipment are available to borrow, or you may use your own if you already have some.

Independence, Flexibility & Control of Your Schedule. At Clinical Massage London, we believe that being self‑employed should actually feel self‑employed. Many clinics advertise independent contractor roles but then manage therapists like staff—dictating schedules, limiting autonomy, and restricting flexibility. That’s not how we work. Here, you’ll have genuine independence and real control over your calendar. We ask that therapists commit to a regular weekly shift pattern so clients can rely on consistent availability.

Beyond this structure, you’ll have the freedom to:

• Block time off on quieter days when appropriate.
• Book holidays whenever needed, provided you give notice to find cover for your shifts and handle pre‑booked appointments responsibly.

We trust you as a professional: you maintain your schedule, communicate clearly with clients, and ensure continuity of care. In return, you get the autonomy and breathing room that allows you to do your best work.
