Massage Envy, the leading provider of therapeutic massage and skin care services, has entered into a partnership with Cortiva Institute, the country's largest group of dedicated massage therapy and skin care schools, with 29 campuses in 12 states.
This partnership paves the way for broad collaboration between Massage Envy franchisees and their local Cortiva Institute campuses to both enrich the student experience and support strong employment outcomes.
Creating opportunities for students to interview for positions in Massage Envy's 1,150+ franchised locations in 49 states—including Stretch Service Provider positions after students have completed 300 hours of their program (where allowable by state law)--is just one way this partnership creates more employment opportunities for students before and after graduation.
"Our growth is fueled by talented, caring therapists and estheticians, and this national partnership gives Massage Envy franchised locations access to graduates who have received an outstanding education," said Joe Magnacca, Massage Envy CEO. "We're dedicated to helping professional service providers build rewarding, long-term careers in the industry, and we look forward to working with Cortiva Institute to provide students with more support to do just that."
In addition, Cortiva Institute will promote Massage Envy's commitment to self-care as part of their curriculum, introducing students to the importance of self-care early on.
In the coming year, Massage Envy franchised locations are expected to hire more than 3,500 professional massage therapists and estheticians.
