Remedial Massage Therapist - Own Room, Newstead Gym

Your own treatment room in a Newstead gym

Club Bunker is an 800sqm independent gym on Doggett Street in Newstead. Our treatment room comes available in September and we are looking for a Remedial Massage Therapist or Myotherapist to take it over. An Exercise Physiologist would suit the space just as well.

This is a room rental rather than a job. You run your own practice, set your own rates, keep your own diary, and everything you bill is yours.

The room

Private, with a door that closes, off the main floor rather than beside it. It is yours alone, so your table and your stock stay set up and nobody else is booking around you. You get 24/7 access for yourself and your clients, and a full gym membership on top.

Your clients do not need to be members and they do not need a casual pass. They book with you and come straight to the room. If your work involves taking someone onto the gym floor for rehab or programming, that is fine too.

The rent

$400 per week, GST included. No splits, no commission, nothing else to pay, and the rate is locked for the full twelve months.

At $110 an hour, ten clients a week covers the rent with about $700 left over. Fifteen leaves you around $1,250. Twenty leaves you $1,800. The same fifteen clients at a franchise clinic on 45 percent pays you about $740.

The start

Nobody walks into a new room with a full book, so you choose the start that suits you. Either 4 weeks fully rent free, or 8 weeks at half rent, depending on whether you are bringing clients across or starting cold.

Where the work comes from

Over 800 people train here, and they are CrossFit, HYROX, powerlifting and general strength members training four or five days a week. Most of them are sore somewhere most of the time and most of them are not seeing anyone about it.

Ten trainers and coaches work the floor across PT, CrossFit and HYROX. The class coaches watch 15-20 people move every hour, so they usually know who is guarding a shoulder before the member has mentioned it. Stephen, our physio, is in the room next door and referrals run both ways.

Every new member is introduced to the practitioners on site at the front desk. We rank well on Google for remedial massage across Newstead and the surrounding suburbs, and you get your own profile page on our website. Most of our members hold extras cover and use it.

How you work

Three days a week or six, whatever you want to build. You are not on shift, there is no weekend requirement and no minimum hours, and nobody is asking you to cover reception or sell someone a ten pack.

What you need

• Diploma of Remedial Massage, Advanced Diploma of Myotherapy, or ESSA accredited exercise physiologist

• Association membership so your clients can claim on their health fund

• Professional indemnity and public liability insurance

• ABN

• Valid Australian work rights

The gym

Club Bunker is family owned. Nicole and Chris are on the floor most days and it is a small group, so you will know everyone by name inside a week.

800sqm, 24/7 access, official CrossFit affiliate and HYROX Training Club. Recovery zone, cafe and supplement store on site, InBody 570 scanner. Inner city Newstead, walking distance from the Valley, Teneriffe and New Farm.

The agreement

Twelve months. Your rate is locked for the term, and at the end of it the room is yours to keep at the same rate if you want it. We are not moving the goalposts on you while you are building, and we are not looking for someone else in six months.

To apply

Tell us who you are, what you treat, and what you are after in a space.
