Job Description

Overview

The Seekers Centre is an innovative healthcare facility with a focus on chronic pain and associated brain syndromes. We are seeking an exceptional person to help us deliver and validate a unique myofascial therapy, based on an exciting new paradigm with the potential to transform healthcare.

Patients will pay a monthly fee to receive treatment as often as needed, to guide them as they develop competence in using this approach for daily self-care.

You will be trained directly by the MD and will work with the project lead to establish protocols and deliver treatment. This is a rare opportunity to learn career-changing clinical skills and contribute to an initiative with the potential to advance medicine.
