Job description

The NOW is designed as a refuge to help you disconnect from the outside world and reconnect within. We are where you go to turn down the noise so you can listen to what your body needs. We offer a space to escape the daily pressures of life and recharge your energy and spirit through the healing benefits of massage therapy.

We focus on delivering a spa-like experience but eliminate the exclusivity and cost of a traditional day spa. This means our Massage Therapists can focus on offering high-quality, healing services without having to manage other job-related duties. We say, “Show up for yourself so you can better support others!”.

 

Hello, my name is Christina Stephens, and I am the General Manager for The NOW in Seattle Fremont. I have over 15 years in the wellness industry and have been a Licensed Massage Therapist in both Texas and Washington State. Before I became an LMT, I worked in corporate settings as a high-level administrator and executive project manager. This professional experience has allowed me to be a bridge and develop massage therapists into leaders in their field, while simultaneously understanding what it takes to run a successful business. I believe being connected to the community is the lifeblood of beneficial mutual aid, being a great human, and ultimately creating a thriving business built on serving others. I am proud to have called Seattle home for 13 years and thrilled to be in the iconic Fremont neighborhood. If you get my out of office, chances are I'm with people I love, our animals, and in nature. I look forward to connecting with you!

About Joe – Lead Therapist

I bring over five years of experience as a licensed therapist in both New Jersey and Washington State, and a strong foundation in stretch therapy and personal training. I bring a well-rounded, results-focused approach to bodywork. Before entering the wellness field, I spent time working in the film industry; an experience that deepened my appreciation for movement, posture, and performance under pressure. I specialize in deep tissue therapy and am passionate about helping clients regain proper range of motion and functional movement. My goal is always to reduce pain, improve mobility, and support each guest’s return to an active, balanced lifestyle. I pride myself on being a supportive leader and trainer who looks to bring out the best in each therapist. Ask me about my annual trip to Jamaica!
