Grandview, MO Spa and Massage

Helmed by Angela Reed, an experienced massage therapist who enjoys working one-on-one with clients, guests can treat themselves to a range of massage modalities. Angela dishes out Swedish treatments to pamper her patients and also administers energy-based reiki sessions. In order to treat chronic pain or soreness caused by sitting through a public reading of the entire dictionary, Angela uses deep-tissue techniques that dig down into musculature to tackle lingering back pain.

More than a decade ago, Tovah Kincaid realized the power of massage therapy after a chiropractor relieved a source of pain that had troubled her for some time. After graduating from Anthem College as a licensed massage therapist, Tovah went on to gain valuable experience working as a massage therapist in a spa and for hospice care before she founded Tovah's Therapeutic Bodywork.

In private treatment rooms, Tovah relieves sources of tension such as an overworked muscle or an upcoming airplane-pulling competition, drawing on Swedish modalities or reflexology techniques. Tovah also pampers guests with paraffin hand treatments, sugar scrubs for the feet, and mini-facials during spa party packages and offers clients in-home massages.

Amber Quigg's signature approach to massage therapy can promote healing in every single stage of her clients' lives. Before they're even brought into the world, Amber's prenatal treatments help babies and mothers-to-be relax during the stressful time that is pregnancy.

Should they discover athletics as teenagers, sports massage prevents injury and kneads away kinks caused by the rigors of physical exertion. Amber's cozy space, which is decorated with hanging art, lighted by tea candles, and painted in serene hues, is also a great escape for grownups juggling work, parenting, and bowling balls.
