I came in with a lot of muscle tightness and left feeling like I got a whole-body factory reset! Kevin was great at explaining everything he was doing and very thorough with treatment. My range of motion has drastically improved and I wasn’t totally aware it was lacking before. I’m looking forward to booking another session soon!

Kevin keeps me moving. Had lots of lower back issues and hip problems from doing computer work. Kevin is the one that worked the issues out and now keeps me moving.
Frequently Asked Questions About My Elite Massage, LLC
Where is My Elite Massage?
My Elite Massage is in Room 11B of Melange Gallery of Salons, 400 Parkwood Ave, Suite 104, in Friendswood, TX (in the Acadiana Plaza on the corner of Parkwood & Sunset).
Where will my massage or bodywork session take place?
Your massage will take place in My Elite Massage's clinic.
For relaxation, blended, or prenatal massage, your massage or bodywork session, the room will be dimly-lit, comfortable, and quiet. Soft music will be played to help you relax. You will lie on a table especially designed for your comfort.
For an orthopedic, deep-tissue orthopedic, or sports massage, it will be similar but feel more like a treatment room with the lights raised and music more as background noise. The table is also specifically designed for your comfort during orthopedic massage, but you may be asked to stand, sit, lie, and change positions more often throughout your session depending on your treatment needs..
Must I be completely undressed?
That depends. If you have chosen an orthopedic or sports massage, you are asked to bring shorts and, if female, a sports bra to wear during your massage. Most other massage and bodywork styles use techniques traditionally performed with the client unclothed; however, it is entirely up to you what you want to wear. You should undress to your level of comfort. You will be properly draped (covered) during the entirety of the session.
Will the therapist be present when I disrobe?
No. For relaxation, blended, or prenatal massages, the therapist will leave the room while you undress, relax onto the table, and cover yourself with a clean sheet and blanket.
For orthopedic, deep-tissue orthopedic, or sports massage, if you need to change clothes for the session, the therapist will leave the room while you do.
Will I be covered during the session?
During the more traditional style massages, you will be properly draped at all times to keep you warm and comfortable. Only the area being worked on will be exposed.
During orthopedic and sports massages, you will be dressed.
What parts of my body will be massaged?
A typical full-body session will include work on your back, hips, arms, legs, feet, hands, head, neck, and shoulders. Sometimes abdomen is included but that and five other areas (scalp, face, pecs, glutes, and feet) require your express written and verbal permission prior to the massage.
In an orthopedic, deep-tissue orthopedic, and sport massage, your massage will be assessment-based, meaning that although each of the above-mentioned areas will be tested, massage treatment is only performed on those areas in need of it.
Are there different kinds of massage and bodywork?
There are several hundred types of massage and bodywork; various modalities utilize different strokes, including basic rubbing strokes, rocking movement, posture and movement re-education, application of pressure to specific points, and more. We can discuss which methods may be most appropriate for you.
