Who doesn’t love a good massage? Massage increases employees’ performance and productivity, reduces adverse effects associated with repetitive work tasks and prolonged sitting positions, reduces stress and tension and improves good feelings about the workplace. Massage can be done in a specialized massage chair or on a massage table. Sessions generally run 5-30 minutes but can last as long as an hour, depending on your needs. The program can be initiated by employee or employer and funded by individual or corporate budget.

Chair massage: A popular service that does not require a private room and can be offered at the employees’ workstation, in a conference room or office. The massage therapist uses a special chair for the massage sessions that can range from 5-20 minutes. During the massage, the recipient is seated and fully clothed. No oil is used. The massage therapist uses techniques that focus on the upper part of the body – neck, head, shoulders, back, and arms.

Table Massage: Some work places prefer to offer the employees a longer and more relaxing massage session. We come to your work site and transform a conference room or private office into a soothing stress-free zone for the day! Our therapists bring a massage table, linens, music and lighting to create the perfect environment for relaxation. Massages may be scheduled on the half hour and hour.
