About Us
Calming, tranquil, grounding, soothing, stress-relieving, healing, tension releasing, therapy - these are just a few words used to describe the services here at El Paso Therapeutic Massage. Our way of doing things is a little different than traditional massage places. We believe in the longevity of our therapist AND our clients - so we invest more time in each. Each client works with their therapist from start to finish for a more personal and relaxing experience. We space our clients further apart for two reasons: first to prevent our clients from feeling rushed out the door at the end of their session and second to prevent fatigue and injury to our therapists. We are capable of getting you in-and-out in an hour, simply state your need for that when you schedule with us and remind ... more

Melissa makes me feel so relaxed that she claims that I doze off. That speaks for something!

This was my first massage and the entire experience was awesome! I had a few medical issues (osteoporosis, previously broken back, and muscle spasms) and Melissa was both knowledgeable and patient in dealing with my concerns--she put me totally at ease. I will definitely be scheduling another appointment in the near future. Thank you Melissa!

This was my first massage and I was very anxious. Melissa created a trusting and relaxed environment by explaining every step before the message. I was so relaxed and was able to fully enjoy the massage. I felt wonderful and highly recommend Melissa! The office environment is very peaceful and designed for the customer to have the best possible experience!

Melissa is incredible! I look forward to my massage every month. She has a great personality, and takes the time to get to know you, your history, as well as making you feel comfortable before, during, and after the massage. She really listens to me and works on what I need most. I love her massage room too. It's so tranquil and relaxing. I highly recommend her services!

It was definitely different than all of my past experiences as far as technique and not getting oil in my hair or leaving my skin feeling too greasy.

My husband booked me a full body massage for a Mother's Day gift. Id only had one massage before and it was a prenatal massage over 7 years ago, I was very unsure of what to expect. I was Melissa's only client for the day and she made me feel like she had prepared the experience just for me and only me. I got to pick the aromatherapy oil that she used during my massage, all the scents were divine. Her shop was tastefully decorated, smelled wonderful and made you feel immediately at ease just walking in. She was bright and exuberant and made me feel like we had been friends for years. She was a very warm person. Before the my massage, she explained everything thoroughly. From her equipment to her technique to put me even more at ease. She made sure she knew what I wanted before the massage began. The oil was soft and soothing the music was quiet and hypnotizing, and her technique was flawless. After the massage was over she allowed me time get my bearings and get ready to leave. I felt like I was at a friends house, I didnt want to leave! Melissa definately delivered and I will certainly be returning. If you sit at a desk all day, believe me, you NEED Melissa!

I have been to Melissa several times and she is hands down, the best massage therapist I have ever seen! Her space is calm and peaceful and welcoming. Melissa is a complete professional from the first time you meet her. She spent time to talk me through exactly what she was going to do and why. She continually asked if I had questions and then took time to listen to my history and about the areas I wanted her to focus on. She is exceptionally thorough! Her room was quiet and dimly lit making it very relaxing. Melissa takes her time to make sure that you are getting the most out of your massage. Unlike chain places where you feel as though there is a timer set from the moment you walk in, Melissa takes her time to pay attention to your individual needs. Melissa has an "oil bar" where you can choose your own oil for her to use. Each of the oils are made by her on site when you get there. She is well worth every penny! Make an appointment now!!

Melissa has recently helped me get over my body's reaction to a fall that left me achy and sore. She explained why I was still in pain and what she did during the massage to make me feel better. She also showed me stretches to do between massages. She is a very caring, knowledgeable therapist and gets the whole story before she starts your massage. I highly recommend her

The entire experience as always was over the top. You are met by a clean lobby with warm colors. Melissa always has a huge smile and a professional demeanor. Walking into the room is welcoming with relaxing soft music, dim lights, and warm colors again. I have been to many masseuses and Melissa has topped them all raising the bar to a level that will be very hard to beat. I came in sore and stressed from real life and hard work and walked out of her office feeling like a million bucks.
This is an experience not an appointment. Treat yourself.
