The deepest massage you have ever had. The Rolf Method of Structural
Integration is not directed at muscles; it is directed at fascia, the body's connective
tissue. Imagine being free of pain, stiffness and stress caused by years of bad
habits, injury, and the effects of gravity. SI restores the body's natural framework,
resulting in optimal alignment and freedom from pain. It is recommended that SI
be performed in a series of ten treatments. Our expert therapist will analyze your
structure at the first session and discuss your treatment plan at that time. SI is not
a temporary change--it's a real fix. Performed here exclusively by Jack Boyd,
Certified in the original Rolf Method of Structural Integration.
And our Special Couples Massage

candlelight and soft music
two massage tables side by side
two therapists who will make every shred of stress drop off your bodies
for the measly price of 100.00 (Swedish massage only; deep tissue is 10.00 more
per person)
Or you may request this service in your home for 160.00 per couple (within a 20 mi
radius of our office. An additional charge will be applied for travel if you are

painless--in fact it feels absolutely wonderful--but it tricks your brain into believing
you are receiving third degree burns, causing your immune system to kick into
overdrive. Since there are no burns, it will start working on whatever IS
there--poor circulation, scar tissue, adhesions. One of the most powerful
treatments ever for faciltating health and wellness.

AESTHETIC SERVICES
MICRODERMABRASION Initial session 50.00 Buy 5, Get One Free!
Purchase a package deal for 250.00 , bringing the cost down to 42.00
for each session.
Microdermabrasion in our world is a painless procedure, and one that is
biologically safe. Many other places use aluminum oxide to perform
microdermabrasion. That is a toxic substance that we do not even want in our
building, and we certainly don't want to put it on anyone's face. Our superior
process uses plain old baking soda with excellent results. Our Registered Nurse,
Deany Martin, who is certified in this procedure, will talk with you during your first
session and perform an analysis of your skin. At that time, she will find out what
your skin problems are, and how much improvement you would like to see. She
will then suggest a treatment plan for you.
Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical procedure for revitalizing the skin's
appearance and smoothness. The procedure takes less than an hour, is totally
painless, and doesn't leave you looking like you've been in a house fire!
The first session is 50.00 and includes a thorough consultation and analysis of
your skin. After your first session, you may purchase a package of six sessions
for 250.00, bringing the cost of each session down to 42.00. If you prefer not to
purchase a package, you may pay for individual sessions for 50.00 each.
Many of our microdermabrasion clients are men; teenagers with acne/scarring are
also good candidates. Please feel free to call us with any questions about the
process.
FACIALS
Deany Martin, RN, will perform a skin analysis and determine which facial would
be the most beneficial to you. We use the finest products from Arbonne, the Swiss
experts in the formulation of fine skin care products, and fine mud masques and
moisturizers from Biotone.
1/2 hour Facial 30.00
1 hour Facial 50.00
1 & 1/2 hour Facial 75.00

a session of Microdermabrasion.
EAR CANDLING 30.00 for first two candles; 2.00 each additional candle
This gentle ancient art has actually improved hearing in several clients. A warm
vacuum is created in the ear, sucking out cellular debris,dead skin, and impacted
ear wax. It is painless and in fact, feels good.
There you have it, our wonderful menu of services. We can customize a package
deal for you if you desire to have more than one service in one day.
We desire that our clients take an active part in their wellness. You may be asked
to drink more water, to do some stretching, and/or any number of things we can
work together on. We do not diagnose; we do not prescribe. We DO sometimes
make referrals, either to another therapist on our staff that we feel would benefit
your particular problem, or to another health care professional such as a
physician, chiropractor, acupuncturist, naturopath, or mental health professional.
In addition to our services, we also offer retail products from the best
manufacturers, including 100% Pure and Organic Oils from Young Living Essential
Oils; Sombre, Biofreeze, and other products designed to help relieve pain
associated with sore muscles and tension. We are also proud to have wonderful,
organic handmade salves from Our Father's Healing Herbs.
If you are undecided about the treatment you wish to receive, give us a call. We
will happily answer all your questions. Our mission is to satisfy each and every
client. Our business is built on repeat clients and referrals from clients. We
couldn't begin to pay for the amount of advertising that we receive from plain
goodwill and word-of-mouth. We genuinely appreciate the opportunity to serve
you, and we thank you for choosing THERA-SSAGE.
In the event you need to cancel an appointment, we require at least 4 hours notice
or we will bill you for the appointment. We have a waiting list and we need ample
time to call someone and give your appointment away. Failure to comply will
result in your dismissal as a client here.
Services at THERA-SSAGE are provided by North Carolina Licensed Massage
Therapists & Bodyworkers, Licensed Acupuncturist, and Registered Nurse.
OUTCALLS are available with prior notice. We are usually not able to
accomodate spur-of-the-moment requests. We do have arrangements with a
number of Bed and Breakfasts in the area, but we do not come to hotels or motels.
We are also glad to come to performance and athletic venues. We may ask you to
guarantee outcalls with a credit card number at our discretion, if you are not
already a client of ours. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
CORPORATE MASSAGE is another service we offer. We are happy to
come to your office or plant to massage your employees and staff members. We
can be hired by the day or the hour for chair massage or work on the table, if you
have the space for us to set up in. Please call us with the details of your location,
your desired day and times, the number of people you want massaged, whether
you want table or chair work, and the amount of time you would like us to spend
there. We'll consider all the variables and give you a price quote. Basically, chair
massage is 60.00 an hour for outcalls; table massage is 80.00 per hour for outcalls
within a 20-mile radius of our office. If you have six people in your office or plant
who will get one-hour sessions, or if you care to make a regular weekly or monthly
arrangement with us, we will be glad to negotiate a discounted package price for
you. Remember, happy employees are productive employees! You'll get a tax
deduction and look like the boss of the century at the same time!


Your Chakras might be
spinning wildly out of
balance. You'd better
get that taken care of
right away! Seriously,
if you have never
experienced energy
work, you are cheating
yourself out of a
wonderful experience.
We believe the awesome power of touch can heal the world one person at a time.
