Massage Add-Ons

Massage add-ons are enhancement options designed to blend seamlessly into your massage session. They help target specific concerns, amplify results, and customize your experience around what your body needs most.

At PRESS, massage add-ons can support deeper relief, improved relaxation, better recovery, and more focused therapeutic work without changing the core structure of your session.

No. PRESS massage add-ons are designed to enhance your session without extending the clock.

Your appointment will still be 60 or 90 minutes total. If you would like more than one add-on, we recommend booking a 90-minute PRESS Elevated service so there is time for two treatments plus your full massage.

PRESS currently offers carefully curated massage enhancements including cupping, gua sha face massage, seasonal aromatherapy, and CBD treatment.

Each add-on is designed to work alongside therapeutic massage to help address tension, soreness, circulation, jaw discomfort, headaches, stress, or localized muscle tightness.

Cupping is a massage enhancement that uses precision suction to help release deep-set tension and stubborn knots.

This modern take on an ancient technique can help address chronic tightness, improve circulation in resistant areas, and reach tension that traditional massage may not fully release.

Cupping can be added to your PRESS massage for $15.

Cupping is best for clients dealing with stubborn knots, chronic muscle tension, tight shoulders, back tension, restricted-feeling areas, or muscles that feel difficult to release with traditional pressure alone.

It can be especially helpful for active clients, desk workers, people with recurring upper back tension, and anyone who feels like certain areas need a different approach.

Cupping can leave temporary circular marks on the skin. These marks are common and usually fade over several days.

The marks are not bruises in the traditional sense, but they can look similar. If you have an event, photoshoot, wedding, or beach trip coming up, you may want to avoid cupping on visible areas right before it.

Gua sha face massage uses a smooth, specialized tool to deliver precise pressure to areas of facial tension.

At PRESS, this enhancement is designed to help reset jaw tension, ease tension headaches, improve circulation, support lymphatic drainage, and restore comfort in the face, jaw, temples, and surrounding areas.

Gua Sha Face Massage can be added to your PRESS massage for $15.

Gua sha face massage is ideal for clients who experience jaw tension, TMJ-related discomfort, tension headaches, facial tightness, sinus pressure, or stress held in the face.

It can be a helpful add-on if you clench your jaw, grind your teeth, spend long hours at a screen, or notice tension around your temples, cheeks, forehead, or jawline.

Seasonal aromatherapy enhances your massage with therapeutic oils chosen to match the season.

Cooling blends can help cut through summer heat, while warming botanicals can ease stiffness in colder months. Each oil is selected to help release tension, support circulation, and help you feel better in your body.

Seasonal Aromatherapy can be added to your massage for $15.

Seasonal aromatherapy is best for clients who want a more sensory, calming, and restorative massage experience.

It can be especially helpful if you are seeking stress relief, deeper relaxation, seasonal support, or a massage that feels more immersive and grounding.

The PRESS CBD Treatment uses a premium CBD gel with a hot-cold sensation to help calm tension, ease soreness, and support recovery.

It is applied to one specific area, such as the shoulders, back, or legs, for deep localized relief that can linger beyond your session.

CBD Treatment can be added to your massage for $15.

CBD Treatment is best for clients who want targeted support for one specific area of soreness, tension, or overuse.

It can be helpful for tight shoulders, a sore low back, tired legs, post-workout soreness, or a muscle group that needs extra attention during your massage.

Yes, you can add more than one enhancement when time allows.

If you want more than one add-on, PRESS recommends booking the 90-minute PRESS Elevated service so your therapist has enough time for two treatments plus your full massage.
