Heavenly Hands Massage's strong-thumbed therapists dissipate their clients' tension with the same massage techniques they have used to unwind professional athletes from the Utah Grizzlies, Blaze, and Bees. With this veteran experience, the staff focuses on alleviating chronic pain or injury-related discomfort through therapeutic methods that range from the standard modalities of Swedish and deep-tissue massage to the Eastern practices of Thai massage and ashiatsu. Ashiatsu—a centuries-old method born out of discomfort from pillows not being invented—evicts deep-seated tension by having massage therapists steady themselves on a bar anchored to the ceiling and apply pressure with targeted footsteps. To iron out energy kinks, a team of yoga instructors orchestrates classes that stretch and strengthen muscles while centering the mind. Hairstylists and aestheticians round out the bodily bolstering with expert styling and nine varieties of facial.

Nathan Garner wanted to be a massage therapist before he even knew it was a profession. He relished seeing his mom's gratitude and relief when he would rub her feet or shoulders after a hard day's work, and he yearned to use his skills to make others feel similarly rejuvenated. Now a licensed massage therapist, and one who's worked professionally for nine years at numerous day spas and conventions around Utah, Nathan knows how to tailor every session to meet each client's unique needs.

In the comfort of a private room, Nathan first consults with clients and their old school yearbooks to determine the most probable source of stress. A deep-tissue massage utilizes intense pressure to loosen buried muscular knots, and a Swedish massage channels the long, flowing strokes of ’70s disco fever to promote blood circulation to the appendages. Pregnancy massages, couples-massage lessons, warm tables and hot-oil massages, and in-home services are also available.
