Giving Deep Tissue as a Gift

Deep tissue is the one service on our menu that should be given to somebody who has already requested it out loud. Not hinted at. Requested. If the person you are buying for has told you more than once that they want someone to properly get into their upper back, you have all the information you need and this is an excellent thing to hand them. If you are guessing, this is the wrong service to guess with, and a card carrying a plain dollar amount lets them pick whatever they actually want when the day comes.

That distinction is the whole of the advice on this page. Everything below is mechanics.

Our cards can be written for any dollar amount you choose, or against a named service, and they carry no expiry date at all. Writing it against the service is the neater option here, because it removes arithmetic from somebody else's evening. A card that says ninety minutes of deep tissue means ninety minutes of deep tissue, whatever the menu says by the time they get around to using it.

If you would rather give a number, the useful ones are $85 for an hour, $125 for ninety minutes and $165 for two hours. Ninety is the length most people settle on once they have tried both, so $125 is the amount that most often gets used without a top-up. Cards are accepted with a $5 processing fee and cash carries none, so five dollars of padding covers that if you want the visit to cost them nothing.

Two things are worth telling the recipient when you hand it over, because both prevent a good gift from being used badly.

The first is that pressure here is not something you pay extra for. There is no premium tier that unlocks firmer work, and the deep pressure upgrade is included at the regular session price. Plenty of people assume a gifted massage is the entry level version and quietly accept less than they wanted. Tell them to ask for exactly what they came for.

The second is scheduling. Deep tissue can leave you sore the following day, in much the way a hard session in a gym does. That is ordinary and it passes, but it makes this a poor choice for the evening before a long drive, a race, a ski day or a move. Suggest they book it into a weekend with nothing behind it. Drink some water afterward, take a few quiet minutes before getting in a car, and let the next morning be slow.

Beyond that we are not going to hand you a list of instructions to pass on, and we are not going to tell either of you what the session will do for a specific complaint. If they have something medical going on, that is a conversation for their doctor before they book, not for the front desk when they arrive.

It gets redeemed at 677 S 200 W Suite #C downtown, where the lot is free and the last starts of the day run late, because the doors stay unlocked until ten at night, seven days a week. Mention the parking when you hand the card over. It is the detail people turn out to be most pleased about.

To buy one, call (801) 288-1118 and say the amount or the service, and whose name it should carry. It takes about two minutes.
