Get Ready for the Thanksgiving Season with Massage1

The holiday season is just around the corner, and we know that preparing for Thanksgiving can be a bit stressful! Whether you’re hosting family, getting the house ready, shopping for ingredients, or perfecting that turkey recipe — it can all feel a bit overwhelming. And if you’re one of the many traveling this holiday season, we understand the challenge of packing, waiting in long airport lines, and managing the journey to be with loved ones.

But at the end of the day, Thanksgiving is all about celebrating the joy of gathering with family. Here at Massage1, we want to help make this season as relaxing as possible for you. Whether you need a moment of self-care before the holiday rush or a soothing massage after the festivities, we’re here to help you unwind.

A Little “Me Time” or Family Bonding Time

This is the perfect opportunity to treat yourself to some well-deserved “me time.” Or, why not bring your family along and make it a bonding experience? Spoil your loved ones by introducing them to your favorite local massage spot in Las Vegas, and let them experience the relaxation that comes with a rejuvenating massage.

Holiday Hours Reminder

Please note, we will be closed on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, November 28th) so that our team can enjoy the holiday with their families. But we will be open and ready to welcome you on Friday, November 29th for some post-Thanksgiving relaxation — just in time for Black Friday!

Stay tuned for more updates, and we look forward to helping you recharge this holiday season!

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Massage1 🦃✨

Take a Break, Refresh Your Mind and Body with Massage1

In our busy world, it’s easy to forget how much we truly need time for ourselves. For many of us, long hours at work, especially in front of a computer, can lead to more than just mental fatigue – it can affect our posture, put strain on our back, and even stress our joints and muscles. At Massage1, we understand these pressures and are here to help you relieve them.

That’s why, before each session, our therapists take the time to ask about what you do for a living. By understanding the physical demands of your job, they can focus on the areas of your body that need the most attention. Whether you’re constantly on your feet, sitting at a desk all day, or performing repetitive tasks, our therapists know which muscle groups to prioritize to ease tension, increase circulation, and get you feeling your best.

But we also know that sometimes, you just need a little “me time” – a moment to unwind, relax, and reset. If your goal is simply to recharge, our Swedish massage is an ideal choice to help you achieve that. Gentle yet effective, a Swedish massage can improve blood flow, reduce stress, and create a sense of calm and well-being, helping you to leave your session feeling renewed.

At Massage1, our therapists are committed to ensuring that every client reaches their wellness goals. Each therapist is highly certified and dedicated to continuous learning, adding new techniques and specialties to their skill set so that we can offer you the best and most effective care possible.

So, if you’re a hard worker who could use a little extra time to relax, relieve muscle tension, or simply enjoy a bit of self-care, let Massage1 be your go-to spot. Schedule your session with us and experience firsthand the difference a focused, customized massage can make.

Celebrating 11 Years of Wellness: A Heartfelt Thank You from Our Founders

What began as a small dream has grown beyond what we ever imagined, and we owe it all to you: our loyal clients and dedicated team.

From the very beginning, our goal was simple—to create a warm, welcoming environment where every person who walks through our doors feels like family. Over the years, we’ve grown, adapted, and evolved, but that mission has never changed. We remain committed to offering the best service, providing the highest-quality therapists, and ensuring that every client experiences the utmost in care and customer service.

To our incredible clients, thank you for your continued trust and support. Your loyalty has been the foundation of our success, and without you, Massage1 would not be where it is today. We are honored to be part of your wellness journey, and we look forward to continuing to serve this community we cherish so deeply for many years to come.

Prenatal Massage at Massage1

At Massage1, we believe that expectant mothers deserve the utmost care and relaxation, which is why we offer prenatal massage without any additional charge. Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it can also come with its own set of physical and emotional challenges. That’s why we’re committed to providing a soothing and safe environment where future moms can unwind and recharge.

What to Expect During Your Prenatal Massage

Our prenatal massage is designed with the comfort and safety of the mother and baby in mind. During the session, you’ll be positioned on your side, supported by soft pillows to ensure that you are in the most comfortable position possible. This side-lying position is recommended as it alleviates pressure on the back and abdomen, promoting better circulation and relaxation.

Your therapist will work with you to adjust the pillows and your positioning as needed, ensuring that you are fully supported and at ease throughout the massage. The goal is to relieve muscle tension, reduce stress, and provide a calming experience that benefits both you and your baby.

Specialized Care from Skilled Therapists

Not all of our therapists at Massage1 perform prenatal massages. This is because we believe that this type of massage requires specific skills and training to be done safely and effectively. Rest assured, our therapists who do offer prenatal massage are highly trained and experienced in working with pregnant clients, understanding the unique needs and considerations at each stage of pregnancy.

No Additional Charges – Because You Deserve It

At Massage1, we understand that pregnancy can come with its fair share of expenses. That’s why we never charge extra for prenatal massages. We believe that every mother-to-be should have access to the relaxation and relief that a massage can provide, without worrying about added costs. It’s just one of the ways we show our commitment to supporting you during this special time.

No Memberships Required

We also don’t require any memberships to take advantage of our services. Whether it’s your first visit or you’re a regular client, you can enjoy our prenatal massages at the same affordable rates. Our focus is on providing top-notch care and making it as easy as possible for you to take care of yourself.

Special Offer for Future Moms

We know that the weeks leading up to your due date can be both exciting and exhausting. To show our appreciation, if you’re close to your due date, we will honor our Signature price for you when you’re ready to come back after giving birth. This way, you can enjoy a relaxing and well-deserved massage at a special rate, helping you to recover and recharge as you transition into motherhood.

Consult Your Doctor Before Your Appointment

While we strive to provide a safe and relaxing experience, it’s important that you consult with your doctor before scheduling a prenatal massage. Every pregnancy is different, and your healthcare provider can advise you on whether a massage is appropriate for your specific situation.

We look forward to welcoming you to Massage1 and being a part of your pregnancy journey. Our mission is to support you every step of the way, ensuring that you receive the care and relaxation you deserve during this special time.

Discover How Cupping Massage Can Transform Your Health

Discover the Healing Power of Cupping Massage

Cupping Massage is an ancient therapeutic technique that has gained popularity in recent years for its numerous health benefits. This unique form of massage uses special cups to create suction on the skin, which can help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote relaxation. At Massage1, our Licensed Massage Therapists (LMTs) are skilled in performing this service, helping you achieve your wellness goals.

The Benefits of Cupping Massage

1. Pain Relief: Cupping can be incredibly effective in relieving muscle tension and pain. The suction created by the cups increases blood flow to the affected area, helping to reduce stiffness and promote healing. It’s especially beneficial for those dealing with chronic pain or recovering from an injury.
2. Improved Circulation: By stimulating blood flow, cupping can help to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the tissues more effectively. This boost in circulation can aid in faster recovery times and overall better health.
3. Detoxification: Cupping helps to draw out toxins from the body, which can be particularly helpful for those looking to cleanse and rejuvenate their system. This detoxifying effect can leave you feeling refreshed and revitalized.
4. Stress Reduction: The deep relaxation provided by cupping can help to reduce stress and anxiety. By promoting a state of calm, cupping allows you to unwind and experience a profound sense of well-being.
5. Enhanced Skin Health: Cupping can also improve the appearance of your skin. The increased blood flow and lymphatic drainage help to reduce the appearance of cellulite and improve skin elasticity, leaving you with a healthy, glowing complexion.

Who is Eligible for Cupping Massage?

Cupping massage is suitable for a wide range of individuals, but it’s especially beneficial for those dealing with:

• Chronic pain conditions, such as back pain or arthritis
• Sports injuries or muscle stiffness
• Stress-related tension and anxiety
• Poor circulation or sluggish lymphatic systems
• Those seeking a natural approach to detoxification

However, it’s important to note that cupping may not be suitable for everyone. Individuals with certain medical conditions, such as bleeding disorders, skin ulcers, or those who are pregnant, should consult with a healthcare provider before undergoing cupping therapy.

At Massage1, we are committed to helping you achieve your wellness goals through personalized care and expert services. Our Licensed Massage Therapists are trained in cupping massage and can tailor each session to meet your specific needs.

Reduce Stress Naturally: How Massage Therapy Lowers Cortisol Levels

How Massage Therapy Can Help Reduce Cortisol Levels

In today’s fast-paced world, managing stress is crucial for maintaining overall health. One effective way to reduce stress is through massage therapy. Numerous studies have shown that massage therapy can significantly lower cortisol levels, the hormone associated with stress.

The Science Behind It

Cortisol is released by the adrenal glands in response to stress. High levels of cortisol can lead to various health issues, including anxiety, depression, and impaired cognitive function. Regular massage therapy can help mitigate these effects by reducing cortisol levels and promoting relaxation.

1. Lower Cortisol Levels: Studies have shown that massage therapy can reduce cortisol levels in the body. For instance, a comprehensive review found that while the effects on cortisol were generally small, they were consistent enough to suggest that massage therapy helps lower cortisol levels​.
2. Enhanced Mood and Relaxation: Massage therapy not only reduces cortisol but also increases levels of serotonin and dopamine, neurotransmitters that enhance mood and relaxation​.
3. Improved Stress Response: Moderate pressure massage has been found to be particularly effective in lowering blood pressure and physiological stress responses, making it a valuable tool for managing stress in our modern lives​.

Benefits of Lower Cortisol Levels Through Massage

• Reduced Anxiety and Depression: By lowering cortisol and increasing serotonin, massage therapy can help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression.
• Better Sleep: Lower cortisol levels can improve sleep quality, helping you feel more rested and rejuvenated.
• Enhanced Immune Function: Reduced stress levels and increased serotonin can boost your immune system, helping your body fight off illnesses more effectively.

Make Getting a Massage Once a Month Part of Your Self-Care Routine

Incorporating regular massage therapy into your wellness routine can be a powerful way to manage stress and improve overall health. By lowering cortisol levels, massage therapy not only helps you feel more relaxed but also supports better mental and physical well-being.

New Service! Lymphatic Drainage

Discover the Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage Massage
Welcome to Massage1 Blog! Today, we’re diving into the wonderful world of Lymphatic Drainage Massage. This gentle, soothing technique has amazing benefits for your health and well-being. Let’s explore what it’s all about and the differences between medical, post-surgery, and regular lymphatic drainage massages.

What is Lymphatic Drainage Massage?
Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a specialized form of massage therapy that encourages the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues and back toward the heart. This technique uses light, rhythmic strokes to stimulate the lymphatic system, helping to reduce swelling, improve circulation, and boost your immune system.

The Benefits
Reduces Swelling: Helps decrease fluid retention and reduce swelling in the body.
Boosts Immune System: By enhancing lymph flow, your body can fight infections more effectively.
Detoxifies the Body: Aids in removing toxins and waste products from the tissues.
Promotes Relaxation: The gentle strokes are calming and help reduce stress.
Different Types of Lymphatic Drainage Massage
1. Medical Lymphatic Drainage Massage
This type is often recommended by healthcare providers for medical reasons. It’s used to treat conditions like lymphedema, chronic swelling, and certain vascular conditions. The massage is typically part of a comprehensive treatment plan and performed by a licensed therapist with specialized training.

2. Post-Surgery Lymphatic Drainage Massage
After surgery, especially cosmetic procedures like liposuction or facelifts, lymphatic drainage massage can significantly aid in the recovery process. It helps reduce swelling, bruising, and discomfort, promoting faster healing. This type of massage is usually gentle and tailored to the patient’s specific needs during their recovery phase.

3. Regular Lymphatic Drainage Massage
This is a great option for anyone looking to boost their overall wellness. It’s not tied to a specific medical condition or recovery process but is perfect for general health maintenance. Regular sessions can help you stay healthy, reduce stress, and keep your lymphatic system functioning optimally.

Important Considerations
Before scheduling a lymphatic drainage massage, please consult with your doctor. Certain health conditions, such as heart problems, blood clots, or infections, may make this type of massage unsuitable for you. Additionally, lymphatic drainage massage should not be combined with hot stones or Sugar Back Scrubs. Pregnant women should also seek medical advice before receiving any type of massage.

Why Choose Us?
At Massage1, our skilled therapists are trained in the latest lymphatic drainage techniques. We tailor each session to meet your individual needs, whether you’re looking for medical support, post-surgery care, or just a relaxing, detoxifying experience.
