The Comprehensive Readiness for Aircrew Flying Training (CRAFT) initiative, launched in 2020 by the Air Education and Training Command (AETC), enhances pilot training through a holistic approach aimed at strengthening the physical and mental capabilities of Air Force pilots. Designed to tackle the demands of flying high-performance aircraft and modern aerial warfare, CRAFT integrates three core pillars into its curriculum: educational foundation, performance enhancement, and early injury prevention. This structured program extends across undergraduate and graduate training, enriching learning outcomes, promoting teamwork, and building resilience with value-added training touchpoints. 


Aligned with the 19th Air Force Pilot Training Transformation, CRAFT utilizes the latest in instructional technology and teaching methods to prepare pilots for both current and future combat challenges. It also ensures a smooth transition to operational units, optimizing human performance continuity with state-of-the-art technology and effective data management, thereby advancing the Air Force’s human weapon system. 


Scope of Work: 

The Soft Tissue Therapist at LMR Technical Group is dedicated to enhancing the physical readiness and recovery of fighter pilots through specialized soft tissue treatments, focusing on injury prevention and rehabilitative care. The therapist will provide high-quality massage therapy and soft-tissue treatments, developing and implementing best practices for treatment within constrained and unconstrained time blocks, under the guidance of licensed physical therapists to support the overarching goals of pilot performance and health.

  • Collaborate closely with strength and conditioning coaches, cognitive performance specialists, physical therapists, and other HPO personnel to integrate soft tissue therapy into broader health and performance programs. 
  • Maintain accurate records of treatments provided, assess and document pilot responses to therapy to inform treatment planning and effectiveness. 
  • Follow treatment plans guided by physical therapists and stay informed about the latest trends and best practices in soft tissue treatments. 
  • Participate in periodic in-service training, attend necessary conferences or courses to maintain professional certifications, and ensure the cleanliness and sanitation of treatment areas and equipment. 
  • Other duties as assigned.


Required Qualifications: 

  • Certification in sports massage therapy or equivalent from a recognized institution, such as AMTA/NCBTMB. 
  • Certification in structural taping techniques, soft tissue scraping, and soft tissue cupping. 
  • Valid license to practice as a Massage Therapist in the state where service delivery will occur. 
  • Prior experience in sports massage or soft tissue therapy, with a strong preference for experience in sports or military settings. 
  • Current certification in basic cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), including Automated External Defibrillator (AED) training. 
  • Pass required background check: National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI). 
  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future.


Preferred Qualifications:

  • Certified Advanced Orthopedic and Sports Massage Therapist.
  • Active Release Technique: Spine Level 1 (or higher).
  • At least 1 Year of full-time employment experience working with collegiate/professional sports athletes or military personnel.


Additional Requirements 

  • Excellent communication skills to effectively interact with patients and healthcare team members, ensuring clear understanding of treatment plans and patient needs. 
  • Ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary team, supporting and enhancing the therapeutic interventions provided by physical therapists and other HPO staff. 
  • Flexibility to work in various settings within the military environment, adapting techniques and treatments to meet the specific demands and restrictions of the fighter pilot community. 
  • Proficiency with computers, e-mail, voicemail, and mobile messaging, including MS Office applications like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.


Working Conditions 

  • The Soft Tissue Therapist will primarily work in the HPO facility but may also provide services at squadron/unit locations as required.  
  • This role may involve variable hours to accommodate training and operational schedules of the pilots. 


Benefits Include:

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
  • Life, AD&D, and Short-Term Disability Insurance
  • 401(k)
  • Paid Time Off
  • Paid Holidays
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • Continuing Education Reimbursement Program
