Feeling Good
Need to Recharge?
Elements Massage
Stress seems to be synonymous
with life. In our fast-paced world,
pressures can pile up, causing us to feel
rundown or at times generally depleted.
Feel the need to recharge? One new
establishment in Mount Pleasant has
the cure for fighting off those aches and
anxieties that surface at the end of a long day.
Elements Massage, located at 1153 Oakland Market
Road, offers services that will
soothe your mind, body and soul.
With reasonable prices,
experienced professionals
and an environment
guaranteed to leave you
feeling rejuvenated, this is
one local spot you’re going
to want to frequent again
and again.
“It’s very rewarding to
have a business that helps
people heal and makes them
feel better,” said owner
Lisa Lindquist, who runs
Elements Massage with her
husband, Bill. “The ability to
provide jobs for people in a
welcoming and beautiful studio is also incredibly satisfying.”
Since opening in April, this beacon of relaxation has
welcomed a steady stream of guests looking to gain some
relief. Unlike establishments that incorporate other services
into the mix, Elements focuses strictly on the art of massage
– proving that they see the importance of doing one thing
and doing it well.
“We wanted to get into the wellness business, given that
we are both pretty active, playing golf and tennis, and we
want to stay that way,” said Lindquist.
The Lindquists have experienced firsthand the benefits of
getting massages regularly, which prompted them to open
up a location where others could reap the same reward.
“We have a sister-in-law who was trained in massage
therapy in Germany, where it has a decidedly more medical
focus,” said Lindquist. “She has been instrumental in our
learning about this business.”
The advantages of incorporating massage into your self-
care regime can be rather monumental. From easing tension
in overworked muscles to elevating mood, the benefits of
massage are vast.
“My husband in particular has a number of injuries
sustained while playing sports in college that have been
improved very much by massage therapy,” said Lindquist.
From the athlete looking to ease the pain to the
busy mom seeking much-
needed TLC, Lindquist
encourages all to come out
and experience the top-notch
work offered at Elements.
Couples massage, hot
stone massage and prenatal
massage are just several of
the varieties from which to
choose.
In addition to guests
being pampered in a relaxing
space, Lindquist makes sure
the studio’s surroundings are
conducive for therapists to do
their very best work.
“Elements was founded by a massage therapist, so part
of our culture is to provide an environment where we take
care of the therapist’s needs,” said Lindquist. “We do so with
hydraulic beds, larger rooms, a spacious break room and
flexible scheduling.”
In the rare case that you aren’t 100-percent happy with
your experience, Elements offers a solution.
“We have a guarantee that you will be completely
satisfied with your massage or the next one is on us,” said
Lindquist. “If you are still not satisfied, we will refund your
money for the first massage.”
Elements Massage is located in The Market at Oakland. To learn
