About Us
Massage is not a Luxury !
Like food, clothing and shelter, it can certainly be upgraded
to that level but the basic benefits of pain and stress relief
are crucial to your Well-being !
Take Five Chair & Clothed Table Massage believes massage is important for people and should be more an everyday part of people's lives - not just something to pamper yourself with. The shorter and more economical sessions of a chair (or clothed table) massage allow you to receive more massage for your money.
This is especially helpful for managing chronic pain, tension and stress. It also can help prevent these conditions from developing in the first place. And because oils are typically not used, it is easier to go back to work or continue on with your day in a non-greasy way.
Don't like the Chair? No problem - Take Five also has a table available. Some people feel more relaxed lying on a table and some conditions are better addressed with the client on the table. Clothed table sessions are priced the same as chair massage sessions.
WALK-INS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME !
Michelle Zanga has been practicing massage therapy since 2004. She opened Take Five Chair Massage in November 2006 with a commitment to provide convenient, effective and affordable massage to residents and visitors alike.
