Massage Therapist News

November 2009 - A Healthy Thanks!

Stress Recess would like to thank all the wonderful therapists who took part in our busy Health Fair season this fall, especially everyone who filled in for sick MT's in Lexington and Raleigh.  Massage was especially important this year because clients were so stressed about the flu epidemic!  You made a stressful time relaxing.

October 2009 - Get Ready to Relax!

Stress Recess is proud to launch our Massage Therapist online invoice system.  This new technology is part of our commitment and investment to our massage therapist family.  Therapists can prepare for events and send invoices in a snap!
