These days it's fairly simple to schedule a massage in a variety of different places, from the office to the gym to the airport while waiting for a delayed flight. Since comfort is of primary importance, choose a location where you feel completely at ease.

Home is a great place for a massage because it's convenient and private. Many massage therapists will come to you, setting up a portable table in your house. But be sure the comfort and convenience of being in your own home outweigh the distractions that might vie for your attention.

Salons and spas are also great places for a massage. If conveniently located, a spa or salon provides an escape from daily life. Your home and office worries fade as you enter a different environment that transports you from the real world to one of indulgence.

The gym is an optimal location for a post-workout massage. This is a convenient way to keep muscles both toned and relaxed all in one trip.

A massage in your office is a great way to force yourself to take a break from the daily grind. An office massage helps you relax and return to work feeling energized.

The massage therapist's home or office is also an excellent choice to consider when scheduling a massage. The atmosphere is usually informal but professional, and private enough for a comfortable session.
