We don’t rush hiring at Elevation.
And we don’t compromise when it comes to your care.

After an intentional search, we’re proud to introduce Savannah.

With 19 years of experience, her work blends neuromuscular and myofascial therapy to relieve pain at its source, not just the symptoms. Her sessions are detailed, results driven, and fully customized to your body.

She also specializes in TMJ therapy, including intraoral release, one of the most effective approaches for jaw tension, headaches, and chronic facial tightness.

For our clients who have been working with Diana, this was a transition we took seriously. Savannah brings the same level of depth, precision, and care you’ve come to expect here.

Her books are now open and already filling.

If your body has been asking for attention, this is your sign.

Not a replacement. An upgrade in care

If you’ve been working with Diana, this message is especially for you.
We know how personal that relationship is, and how important consistency in your care can be.
Finding the right therapist isn’t easy… and finding someone who can meet the level of work you’re used to here is even harder.
So we didn’t settle.

As many of you know, Diana will be stepping into a new chapter soon. And while there is truly no replacing someone who has been such a meaningful part of your care and our team, it was incredibly important to us that we found someone who meets that same level of skill, intention, and results-driven work.
We took our time with this search… and we got it right.
We’re so excited to introduce Savannah.

Savannah and I actually worked together 10 years ago, so this is a full-circle moment. I’ve seen her work firsthand, and I can confidently say she brings a rare combination of technical skill, intuition, and consistency that is hard to find.
She recently moved back to Houston from the Hill Country and joins us with 19 years of experience, along with a treatment style that blends the best of what you’ve come to know and love here at Elevation.

If you’ve worked with Diana, you’ll feel right at home.
If you’ve worked with me, you’ll recognize the depth and intention.
Truly, her work is a combination of both… and that makes me so excited for you!

Savannah specializes in neuromuscular and myofascial therapy, focusing on identifying and interrupting pain patterns at their source while helping the nervous system settle and reset. Her sessions are not just relaxing, they are purposeful, detailed, and designed to create lasting change.

She also brings advanced training in TMJ therapy, including intra-oral release, which is one of the most effective and often overlooked approaches for relieving jaw tension, headaches, and chronic facial holding patterns. This is a gold-standard technique, and not something every therapist is trained in or comfortable offering.

In addition to her hands-on work, Savannah is also a Licensed Massage Therapy Instructor, teaching the same techniques she uses daily to the next generation of therapists. That level of mastery shows up in every session.

Her mission is simple:
to help busy people feel better by relieving pain in the body and calming the nervous system.

And for our clients who have been working with Diana, we want you to feel completely supported in this transition. While Diana will absolutely be missed, we feel incredibly confident in who you’ll be stepping into care with next.

Savannah’s schedule is now open, and we highly recommend booking in advance, especially if you’re looking to maintain consistency in your treatment plan.

P.S. to sweeten this announcement we are offering 20% off first time visits with Savannah. That's something you're not going to want to snooze on.
This coupon can only be used with Savannah

A Small Schedule Shift, From My Heart to Yours

Hi friends,

This email is a little more personal than usual.

After 16 years in this industry, (hard to believe) and nearly two decades of long days, full books, and working most weekends…I’ve made the decision to shift my schedule and give myself more time to rest and recharge.

Moving forward, I’ll be scaling back my weekend availability.
I will still open a limited number of weekend days each month (likely two), but the majority of my schedule will now be focused on weekdays.

If you’re currently pre-booked with me on a weekend, don’t worry at all, your appointments are fully honored and nothing will change there.

For those of you who rely on weekends, especially my busy moms and clients with packed weekday schedules, I’ve got you. You’re always welcome to reach out directly by text or email, and I’ll make sure you have priority access to those limited weekend openings each month.

This wasn’t an easy decision. This work is deeply meaningful to me, and being there for you has always been something I take seriously. But in order to continue showing up fully, present, and doing the level of work you expect from me… I need to create a little more space to take care of myself too. And if I’m being honest, I’d like to have a weekend every now and then just like everyone else. :)

I truly appreciate your support, your understanding, and the trust you’ve placed in me over the years. It means more than you know.

We have an incredible team here, and if you ever need additional availability, I will always make sure you’re taken care of.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me.
With gratitude,
Maria

THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOL's JOKE

Hi friend!

Real talk… your body has been working overtime, and this is your chance to actually do something about it.
Easter weekend is here, we’re closed Sunday, and our esthetician is off (so no facials this weekend)…but that just means it’s prime time for bodywork.

We’ve opened up availability today through Friday and are offering:
10% off all bookings.
Think:
✨ Deep tissue to undo the week
✨ Sports + recovery work
✨ Lymphatic drainage to de-bloat and reset
✨ Infrared sauna to sweat it all out

Basically… everything your body has been quietly asking for.
Spots are limited (and let’s be honest, they won’t last long), so if you’ve been putting it off—this is your moment.

Use code: EASTERRESET at checkout, or write it in your notes when you book.

Hop on in, reset, and head into the weekend feeling like yourself again, let's face it, you need to be limber for all the egg hunts, not acting like a stressed-out bunny running on fumes.

See you soon,
Maria & The Elevation Team

P.S. - there is a pink moon tonight! Hopefully Houston will bless us with clear skies, enjoy!

Spring Updates from the Elevation Team

Hi Elevation Community,
Spring always brings a bit of renewal and change, and we have a few team updates to share as we move into a busy season here at Elevation.

First, Daisy has recently departed from the team. We’re grateful for the time she spent with us and wish her the very best in her next chapter. If you were a fan of Daisy, you'll love Michelle or Kate!

In case you missed the previous update on this; Diana will also be moving on this spring, with May 1st as her final day at Elevation. This one hurts us as much as it hurts you, Diana has finally decided to retire from massage and is moving out of the state. If you’ve been meaning to get one more session with her before she goes, we recommend booking soon as her remaining appointments are filling quickly.

As we continue growing and evolving, Georgina is currently onboarding and training with us. You've likely seen her working the front desk, and soon you'll be able to see her on the massage table! Georgina is currently training with Diana, insuring she will be able to take the absolute best care of you, our wonderful clients. We’re so excited to introduce her more fully to the Elevation community soon.

On a very happy note, Dani is expecting a baby this September, and we couldn’t be more excited for her. Dani will continue offering facials and skincare services throughout the coming months, so if you’ve been meaning to book a skin ritual, Hydrafacial, or a seasonal skin reset with her, now is a wonderful time to get on her schedule.

For massage and bodywork, we’d also love to highlight two fantastic therapists who are currently taking new appointments:

Kate is a client favorite and works Thursday-Monday making her an excellent option for those of you needing weekend availability. Kate brings a thoughtful, skilled approach to every session and consistently takes wonderful care of our clients.

Michelle has great weekday availability, she is with us Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Michelle offers exceptional and intentional deep bodywork with a calm, intuitive style that clients love.

With Spring Break behind us and the Houston Rodeo winding down, it’s the perfect time to reset and get back into your self-care routine. Whether your body needs recovery from travel, long days on your feet, workouts, or simply the pace of everyday life, we’re here to help.

Friendly reminder: we are open 7 days a week, and have some great openings this coming Saturday and Sunday, don't miss out - you know our weekend spots book up fast!

Here's What Clients Are Booking Right Now:
As we move into spring, these services have been especially popular with our clients:

Hydrafacial & Skin Rituals
A perfect seasonal reset to refresh and hydrate the skin after winter and travel.
TMJ & Focused Intentional Bodywork
Great for headaches, jaw tension, neck pain, and stress relief.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage
A gentle, rhythmic treatment that supports detoxification, reduces swelling, and helps the body feel lighter and more balanced. Basically spring cleaning for your body.

Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna Sessions
A client favorite for recovery, circulation, detoxification, and deep relaxation. Who needs a zen garden when you have a Sunlight Infrared Sauna?

We are forever grateful for this community and look forward to taking great care of you not only this spring, but for all the springs yet to come.
Warmly,
Maria & The Elevation Team

Respecting Your Time and Ours

Hi friend,

I wanted to take a moment to clarify our cancellation policy and explain why it exists.
At Elevation Massage & Spa, every appointment is reserved exclusively for you. Our therapists structure their schedules in advance and rely on those reserved sessions as part of their expected income.

When an appointment is canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice, it is very difficult to refill that time, and it directly impacts our team.

Our cancellation fees are not meant to be punitive. They are in place to protect our therapists’ time, ensure fairness, and allow us to continue providing consistent, high-quality care to every client who books with us.

We understand that life happens. If you need to make changes to your appointment, we simply ask that you do so outside of the 48-hour window whenever possible. This gives us the opportunity to offer that time to another client who may be waiting.

For your reference, our cancellation policy is outlined below:

Cancellation Policy
• We require a minimum of 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment.
• Cancellations/rescheduling made within 48 hours of the scheduled appointment time will incur a $50 fee.
• Same-day cancellations and no-call/no-shows will be charged 50–100% of the scheduled service total, based on the circumstances.

This policy protects the time our therapists reserve specifically for you. When you schedule an appointment, that time is dedicated exclusively to your care and cannot be filled on short notice.
By booking an appointment with us, you acknowledge and agree to these cancellation terms.

We truly appreciate your understanding and your continued support of our small business and the professionals who make your care possible.
Warmly,
Elevation Massage & Spa

It's "Love" Month

Happy February my friends! And a very happy Groundhog Day, judging by the fact that we are fully thawed here in Houston, I'm guessing the little guy saw the shadow? Or is seeing the shadow bad?...anywho January was a whirlwind, is it just me or are you a bit of a mess from that too? Now, here we are in February, the shortest month of the year, but one crammed with a plethora (a PLETHORA?) of heavy hitting days, and history.

Sounds like February is going to be a whirlwind too, I guess I'll just embrace the chaos and the mess. I'm talking about my hair. If you are in need of a little TLC this month - who doesn't? I'm here to offer you a little self-care savings to counteract the world at large. Enjoy 10% off your next service this month of Feb. Xoxo

Speaking of hugs and kisses, don't forget Valentine's Day - gentleman this announcement is especially for you, it's Feb 15th...psych! It's Feb 14th, just testing your reflexes. You don't have to compete with the Super Bowl this year, so all your WAGs are going to be expecting...something. My rec is buying a massage or facial gift card, booking a massage or facial for that special someone Feb 13-15, OR you could book couples massage on the 13th or 14th, we unfortunately don't have any couples massage available on the 15th, but that shouldn't stop you from booking solo appointments. It shouldn't stop ANY OF YOU.

Ladies don't forget the guys either, or the ladies, I'm coining the terms HABS - husbands and boyfriends. I hope that goes viral.

To all our lovely clients, coupled and uncoupled, we are here to make you feel just a little extra special V day weekend. Expect cheers, swag bags, and enjoy the discount below.

P.S. you can use this discount all month, hugs!

It’s the end of an era

Hi friends, it’s with a heavy heart that I make this announcement: Diana has finally decided that she’s moving out of Houston, and consequently leaving us. Don’t panic! We still have her until May 1st.

As many of you are aware, I’ve known Diana for about 10 years; she was my massage therapist for years, and in 2018 she started working with me, back when we were in our first little Heights bungalow. Because of her I was able to build and grow the practice. Elevation wouldn’t be what it is today if she hadn’t joined me all those years ago.
I’m beyond sad that she’s leaving, but I’m also very happy for her as she starts a new chapter in her life. A chapter that I hope is easy, fun, and peaceful. She’s worked her butt off for years, and deserves some time to rest.

Don’t be a stranger these next 3 months. Our remaining time with Diana is going to fly by!! Her schedule with us is Wed-Fri and the 2nd Saturday of the month. I fully expect you all to jam her schedule over these next 3 months. We don’t want to give her any excuses to leave earlier than May 1st.

For those of you who are loyal followers of Diana, I am sorry for this loss, I know it hurts! But don’t worry, we do have you covered, we are having Diana work with our team to teach them some of her incredible skills, and I’m actively working on getting a direct talent replacement for her. She’s a muscle assassin 🥷 and one of the best therapists ever, so it’s not going to be easy - but finding the best is one of my talents, have you met our team?. So rest easy, you won’t have to find a new self-care home.

Thank you for trusting me, and our amazing team with your body, and self care. We wouldn’t be here without all of you!

Book your pre/post marathon massage!

Happy New Year friends! It’s coming in at a mile a minute! The marathon is fast approaching, which means you need to book your pre/post race sessions now!

We recommend no later than Friday for pre-race massages. Recovery massages should be done 2-5 days after the race, there’s no harm in Monday, just keep in mind you might be a little more sore.
If you’re booking a pre/post race massage you’re more than welcome to use our infrared sauna - on us! Enjoy some deep relaxation and recovery. Infrared sauna is fantastic for bringing that inflammation down!
