Read MoreAfter a long, determined organizing effort that began in January, the massage therapists of Dreamclinic have officially won their union election—making history as the first group of massage therapists in Washington State to successfully organize.
This victory marks a powerful step forward not just for the workers at Dreamclinic, but for the broader massage therapy profession. These dedicated Licensed Massage Therapists (LMTs) have shown that when workers stand together, they can overcome challenges, advocate for their needs, and create lasting change.
The bargaining process will begin soon. In the coming weeks, bargaining surveys will be distributed so that every therapist's voice and priorities are heard as we prepare for negotiations.
"As massage therapists, we put all we can into the care and treatment of our clients. If we are giving 100%, our workplace and the people who profit off of us should be giving that back to us."
— Marco, LMT
"Massage therapists are literally the heart and soul of this industry and we deserve to be treated as such. It is my hope that organizing and stepping into the power of our collective voice not only helps us support our longevity at Dreamclinic, but also further opens the door to help shift industry standards around how massage therapists are treated by their employers."
— Will, LMT
UFCW 3000 is proud to welcome these history-makers to our union family. This victory is proof that when workers unite, they have the power to shape the future of their industry—and this is only the beginning.
With an overwhelming supermajority, Dreamclinic LMTs have officially won our union election. This win was powered by our unity, our courage, and our belief that we deserve better. We stood together across clinics, shifts, and schedules and proved that we are strongest when we act as one.
Winning the election is just the beginning. Now, we come together to build a strong first contract that reflects our values and supports Dreamclinic:
Fair pay
Real breaks
Respect on the job
Safety & voice in our work
