UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERNCE
QUALITY: Prima
Day Spa provides the Wilmington community with experienced professional massage therapy. We have been building our reputation as one of the best
in massage therapy in North Carolina for 10 years.
BARGAIN BASEMENT: While we believe in giving the best massage therapy at the best possible price. We are not going to compromise on quality. Some institutions focus on bargain massage and pay their therapists a third of what we pay ours. This is the same business model as "cut rate hair cut place". The people working is such establishments are generally fresh out of school and in need of practice. Otherwise they are people who don't feel that they have the talent to work in a fine salon. That's not to say that you won't get a decent cut, but you take your chances when you are looking for the cheapest of anything.
BOTTOM LINE: How can those "Bargain Massage" places afford to make less? This is the most important question. Are you ready?... they don't, they make a lot more. They take the lions share of what you pay, so it's the therapist who takes the loss and makes less (gives you a bargain). The shop makes more, per customer than a higher quality massage establishment would and they make a fortune on volume, hooking shoppers into contracts. Lot's of folks are so blinded by this mirage that they sign a contract that gets their account auto-debited for a full year because of the lure of saving a few dollars. In the end, it's the person doing all the work who is sacrificing and cutting your cost, it's the exploited employee whose early '80's sedan without air conditioning is parked out back, helping you with your budget, not the company that holds the high dollar real estate.
REWARDING OUR REGULAR CUSTOMERS: While we don't cater to the bargain basement crowd we do make sure that our regular customers are getting the best massage and being rewarded for return visits. That's right, our regular massage customers save 10 to 20% massage. We rotate our staff so that very seldom does one of our therapists perform more than a few sessions a day. So you can get the best for less when you are a regular Prima customer. Learn about our rewards program here.
WE'LL BE HERE: When you are ready for a quality massage with soft candles and warm hands instead of smooth salesmen and cold contracts, come see why Prima is so favored. We can't wait to get our hands on you and show you the truth.

This
is the most common type of massage therapy in the United
States. It is known as Swedish massage or simply massage
therapy.
Massage therapists use long smooth strokes, kneading, and circular movements on superficial layers of muscle using massage lotion or oil.
Heated, smooth stones are placed on certain points on the body to warm and loosen tight muscles and balance energy centers in the body.
The massage therapist may also hold stones and apply gentle pressure with them. The warmth is comforting. Hot stone massage is good for people who have muscle tension but prefer lighter massage. To learn more, read the full article on hot stone massage.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. The massage therapist uses slower strokes or friction techniques across the grain of the muscle.
Deep tissue massage is used for chronically tight or painful muscles, repetitive strain, postural problems, or recovery from injury. People often feel sore for one to two days after deep tissue massage. To learn more, read the full article on deep tissue massage
Increase
the Benefits with Frequent Visits
Getting a massage can do you a world of good. And getting
massage frequently can do even more. This is the beauty of
bodywork. Taking part in this form of regularly scheduled
self-care can play a huge part in how healthy you’ll be and
how youthful you’ll remain with each passing year. Budgeting
time and money for bodywork at consistent intervals is truly
an investment in your health. And remember: just because massage
feels like a pampering treat doesn't’t mean it is any less therapeutic.
Consider massage appointments a necessary piece of your health
and wellness plan, and work with your practitioner to establish
a treatment schedule that best meets your needs. |
