Enjoy a personalized, healing experience with Squeeze Massage

From booking the session to the moment guests exit after a massage, the entire experience at Squeeze Massage focuses on creating a personalized, relaxing, and seamless massage experience.

Squeeze Massage offers 50 and 80 minute massages with therapists who are trained in a variety of healing modalities including Swedish, deep tissue, Reiki, neuro-muscular, and trigger point therapy massages. Guests direct their experience beginning with booking appointments online or through an app. With extended hours and same day appointments, Squeeze can accommodate guests with a wide range of availability.

Online therapist introductions that include special areas of expertise and customer reviews allow guests to choose the therapist that most aligns with their needs. During the booking process, guests also complete a survey to select preferences, ensuring the session is customized to their needs and wants.  Details collected include choice of music from six curated musical playlists, type of lighting, preferred pressure firmness of the massage, and specific areas of the body to avoid and/or focus on during the massage.  Additional enhancing services such as aromatherapy, heat, percussion, and deep tissue therapy are included in the session cost.

“Before you arrive, your therapist is going to know what your preferences are, so when you come in, you're greeted by our maître d and we take you immediately to the lounge area to start relaxing,” explained Sloane Bellante, owner of Squeeze Massage. “Then when your therapist comes to get you, there is no paperwork involved because it's already done prior to the appointment and at your leisure.”

Guests also control the start of the session using a button located on each massage table, which when pressed, lets the therapist know that the guest is ready to begin. This helps alleviate anxiety over a therapist entering the room before the guest is prepared or leaving the guest guessing how long they must wait for the massage to begin.

At the conclusion of the session, therapists treat guests to a private and contact-free checkout process so as to not disrupt the calm and relaxing afterglow of the massage. It’s a feeling Sloane says they want to make sure guests continue to enjoy long after they leave. “It's such a Zen environment,” she shared. “The world is full of heavy emotions and stress, so making someone's day a little bit brighter because they feel lighter from having their massage and being the better part of someone's day is really fulfilling.”
