Many new clients call us asking for a "standard" hour massage. We kindly explain to them that we don't normally offer an hour massage and that our "standard" massage is 75 minutes. Many often ask why that is.
Frequently, places that offer an hour massage often include time to fill out paperwork as well as getting dressed and undressed in that 1 hour. So from the time you walk in until the time you walk out is 1 hour, but your actual hands-on massage time is more like 45-50 minutes.
If you are strictly looking for a relaxation massage, that might be ok. However, most of our clients have injuries, chronic pain and other issues that require deeper, more therapeutic work. We can't simply just brush over those areas. So, when The Massage Store first opened, we decided that to provide the type of massage our clients required and wanted, 75-minutes was the key. And that is 75 minutes of actual hands-on massage time. Filling out paperwork, paying and getting dresssed is all done outside of that 75 minute block of time!
Our customers love the extra time, realize more benefit from each massage session and ultimately recognize it as a better value for the money they are spending.
But we also understand, not everyone wants that long of an appointment. So, we do offer a 1/2 hour massage that focuses on a certain area, such as neck & shoulders, lower back, or legs.
We also offer 90 and 120 minutes appointments too, for those die-hard clients!
