The Company
Bolt Farm Treehouse exists to help couples slow down, reconnect, and strengthen their relationship through intentional, deeply restorative experiences. We are building a distinct brand centered on renewal, reconnection, and emotional transformation — creating beautiful, private environments that help people step out of the noise of everyday life and return to what matters most. More than a place to visit, Bolt Farm is designed to create meaningful change in the lives and relationships of the people we serve.
This is an exciting time to join Bolt Farm. As we continue to elevate the experience and build the team shaping what comes next, we are looking for people who want to do meaningful work inside a distinctive, growing company. For the right person, this is a chance to help build something special — a brand with real momentum, a clear mission, and the opportunity to make a lasting impact.
Your Team
The spa is one of the most intimate and emotionally important parts of a Bolt Farm stay — and one of its strongest revenue drivers. The team delivers signature couples experiences in a nature-immersed Wellness Haven with mountaintop views, under new spa leadership with new standards and a new schedule model.
The book is full and growing: fall dates are near capacity, a fourth treatment room is being added, and the team is expanding to meet demand. Therapists here are supported by a dedicated Spa Attendant who owns laundry, linens, and product trays, and a Spa Concierge who owns everything outside the treatment — so your scope stays on the craft.
Your Role
As a Licensed Massage Therapist, you help couples feel deeply relaxed, cared for, and restored through high-quality, personalized bodywork. Guests arrive carrying stress and distance; they leave reconnected. You create that shift.
The role is built to protect both your craft and your body. Every treatment pays you for 90 minutes: 80 minutes of hands-on work that is never shortened or interrupted, plus 10 paid minutes to turn your room. You'll deliver up to five treatments a day, four days a week, with start times honored exactly. Nearly every treatment is a couple, so you'll usually work alongside a fellow therapist. You never sell, schedule, or collect payment — hands-on bodywork at a world-class standard is the entire job. And with the spa's widest operating window running 7 AM to 7 PM, there are no late-night shifts.

If you want a quiet, easy spa job where "good enough" passes and you set your own hours, this is not your seat. If you take pride in making people feel genuinely restored — and you want the highest per-treatment rate in Tennessee, your body protected, and three consistent days off every week — this may be your seat.
