Why choose Asheville Massage & Wellness

"Treat the cause, not the effect."

That line is from Dr. Edward Bach, and it is how we approach each session. We look at what is driving the tension rather than only working the spot that hurts. The recommendation you get is straight, and we won't sell you something that does not serve what you came in for.

01

You set the pressure

Ask about the technique before you start. Say the word at any point for more or less pressure, or another blanket. Nothing about the hour is fixed once it begins.

02

What goes on your skin

Certified organic oils and essential oils for bodywork. One Love Organics plant-based skincare for every facial. Tell us about a sensitivity and we will use something else.

03

A safe and inclusive room

Whatever your age, race, gender, or orientation, you are welcome here. Questions about aftercare between visits are always free to ask.
