About Stress Busters Massage Therapy-We offer relaxing, professional surroundings while still maintaining a warm inviting atmosphere. Our facility is ideal for those who need some time away from the "hustle and bustle" of everyday life. This is the perfect place for those who don’t want all the fuss associated with a day spa (huge parking lots, valet, locker rooms, strangers all around you, long hallways & getting lost, mandatory tipping fees, feeling rushed and dead broke by the time you leave etc... etc...).

Stress Busters tend to see a lot of stressed and chronic pain suffering people . We can take away your aches and pain whether it's from pregnancy, a sports injury or just ever day life…we can handle it all. Because we are a small business, we are able to spend the extra time with each client as the need arises.

If you are interested in learning more about research on massage therapy and other alternative therapies please go to: http://www6.miami.edu/touch-research/Massage.htm

Our teams of male & female licensed massage therapists can also travel to your home, resort, condo or office.

We are a Christian owned business
