Client Spotlight

Dreamclinic Onsite Massage
Dreamclinic, a popular clinic located in the Ravenna neighborhood, also has a newer business unit providing over 100 hours of onsite chair massage per week. Therapists working for Dreamclinic Onsite mainly provide care to stressed office professionals who look forward to the health benefits of chair massage once or twice a week right in their office.

Along with the ongoing contracts, Dreamclinic Onsite also services one-day events, which requires the company to search for available massage therapists from a wide geographic region, sometimes within just a few days notice. Although the regular group of LMPs contracted with Dreamclinic are reliable, cold and flu season got the best of them this winter. It became very apparent to Katherine, a Business Unit Manager, that she needed a list of reliable back-up therapists available for fill-in.

Katherine found that Find Touch was an invaluable resource for this task. Not only was she able to post a job to cover her fill-in needs for chair massage, but she also was able to proactively reach out and contact massage professionals when the need was urgent. She was delighted by the response and explained that Find Touch far surpassed the results from other job posting sites.
"Find Touch is incredibly easy to use and the response time was amazing," Katherine shared enthusiastically. "Each job posting yielded a number of qualified candidates in a very short period of time. I can literally breathe A LOT easier and take on more onsite business knowing that I have Find Touch to recruit and find back up therapists at a moments notice."

The Spa... for the woman who cares
The Spa for the Woman is a 1600 sq ft. specialty Day Spa located in Bothell with a unique concept: catering to the needs of professional women and their guests with head to toe skin and body treatments. Joyce Murdock, the owner, takes a holistic yet clinical approach while providing pampering and result-oriented treatments.

As a business owner and an aesthetician, Joyce has faced many staffing challenges in the past. Her professional practice has grown steadily over the years and now needs massage therapists, especially on the weekends! Joyce employs a part-time LMP and sometimes needs additional massage help, when a party of 2 or 3 all opt to receive massage at the same time. Since Joyce herself is not a massage therapist, the biggest challenge she faced was not knowing how or where to find qualified therapists in a time of need.

Joyce has been posting with Find Touch since November 2007 and has had the best experience locating qualified massage therapists. Her success with using Find Touch has been due to the fact that she proactively searches the database and contacts massage therapists directly either by phone or e-mail. She appreciates that Find Touch provides the searchable database in addition to the ability to post a job ad. Joyce compiled a list of therapists in her Find Touch Favorites that she can contact whenever short-notice opportunities arise.

"I love Find Touch! This site has helped my business run smoothly many times. Every time I log on to Find Touch I always find an eager, friendly person ready to work. Without this service I would be so stressed out! Aahhh... what a relief Find Touch is."

Newport Chiropractic and Massage Therapy
Newport Chiropractic and Massage Therapy has an office located near Factoria Mall in Bellevue. They have a variety of clientele coming into their office all with a similar goal in mind - to get better. The practicing chiropractor takes special steps to ensure he is discovering the underlying root of the health issue for each person and then works to fully correct the problem rather than just treat a symptom. The business understands all the steps to positive healing which is why massage therapy is also available for clients.

Nancy Lorge is the office manager for Newport Chiropractic which employs 2 full-time massage therapists. At the end of January, one of her massage therapists was planning a vacation and Nancy was concerned about finding a substitute. She happened to hear of Find Touch and decided to post a job ad. Within a shorter period of time than she anticipated, Nancy received applications from a number of candidates and was able to get coverage for her massage therapist's 10-day vacation.

Based on this first experience and her subsequent use of the service, Nancy highly recommends Find Touch to other employers. She says she always finds excellent and focused massage therapists through Find Touch and now regards it as a valuable resource for fill-in and permanent massage staffing needs.

Diana Skidmore, LMP
Diana is an LMP who moved to Seattle earlier this year from Rhode Island. She found out about Find Touch soon after moving to the Northwest and registered right away. At the AMTA convention in May of 2008 where Find Touch had a booth, Diana took the time to stop by and share her positive experience with the service. "I applied for a few jobs after registering and I heard back from an employer within 5 hours of applying for the position," recounts Diana. "The next day I heard back from three more employers! I am amazed by the quick response!"
