How is it already Thanksgiving?

Greetings my friend,
As we head into Thanksgiving week, I want to take a moment, a real, intentional pause, to say thank you. Not the quick, polite version. The deep-breath, hand-over-heart kind. Because truly, this year has been…a ride. A financial roller coaster with more dips than any of us asked for, plenty of late nights spent doing math I hoped I wouldn't do after college (lots of solving for x). And a whole lot of faith that things would work out. And through every twist and turn, you showed up for us.
And that means everything.

Small business ownership isn’t glamorous. It’s equal parts passion, stubbornness, purpose, and since I don't drink coffee - sheer willpower! Running a wellness studio in a world that feels increasingly chaotic is a challenge all on its own. But then you walk through our doors - tired from work, excited for some self-care, or just needing a breath - and suddenly the day feels lighter. You remind us why we’re here. You make the tough days worth it. You make the good days brighter. And quite honestly, you are the reason we keep those doors open.

Our mission has always been simple and sacred: to elevate consciousness through healing touch. Massage isn’t just about muscles. It’s about releasing what weighs us down be it stress, anxiety, grief, tension, the emotional baggage and stored trauma that we quietly carry around. Those shoulders don't become slumped for no reason. When we help ease that for even one person, it sends a little ripple of healing out into the world. And those ripples matter. They add up. They create change.
Every time you trust us with your care, you’re helping us fulfill that mission. One person at a time. One session at a time. One nervous system reset at a time. You’re helping us do good in the world, and being part of your wellness journey is the most gratifying work we could ask for.

So from the entire Elevation family - thank you. Thank you for choosing us, supporting us, referring friends, being patient with our growing pains, laughing with us, crying with us, and letting us be a part of your life. You are the heart of this business, and we are endlessly grateful.
Wishing you a Thanksgiving full of softness, warmth, gratitude, and moments where your soul can exhale.
We can’t wait to see you soon - hopefully this week.
With gratitude,
Maria & the Elevation Massage and Spa Team

P.S. We are closed Thanksgiving Day, but otherwise open all week

P.P.S. Our annual gift card sale goes live on Black Friday, keep your eyes peeled for the code.

Use Your HSA or FSA for Massage Therapy

Did you know your massage sessions might qualify for insurance reimbursement?

At Elevation Massage & Spa, we make it simple with superbills and HSA/FSA-friendly receipts. The end of year is coming, don't let those benefits go to waste!
A superbill is a detailed receipt that allows you to submit your session to your insurance or HSA/FSA for reimbursement—no complicated claims, no network restrictions.
Just book your session, relax, and we’ll provide everything you need to get reimbursed.

How It Works
Book your session as usual.
Request a superbill at checkout.
Submit it through your insurance or HSA/FSA portal.
Most plans only need a quick doctor’s note saying massage is recommended for a specific condition (like back pain or tension headaches). - Chiropractors are great for this too, if you're already a patient of our friends at MVMT Chiropractic (https://mvmtchiro.com) , that's an easy place to get a letter of recommendation.

Don’t wait snag these now!

Quick heads up – I have just two openings left this month, and then nothing until the end of October:

• Tomorrow (Wednesday the 24th) at 12:30 PM for a 75-minute session
• Thursday the 25th at 5:00 PM for a 60-minute session

After that, I’m fully booked until late October. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to prioritize your care, this is it.

Consistency in self-care isn’t just a luxury – it’s powerful medicine for both your mind and your muscles. Regular sessions keep your body resilient, reduce stress, and give you that grounded clarity we all need to move through life feeling strong and present.

If those two times don’t work, our incredible team has availability to keep you on track with your self-care routine.
My team is the best in Houston, but if you’re looking for most similar to me, I recommend Diana, Sandra, and Michelle. They bring the same elevated touch and results-driven care you know and love.

With warmth, and gratitude.

I’ll Be Away - Here’s How to Keep Your Wellness on Track

Greetings, and a happy Monday, to our beloved Elevation family of clients! I wanted to give you a little personal heads-up: I’ll be away for the first two weeks of October, recharging and exploring new ways to elevate your experiences here at Elevation.

That said, I would love to see you before I go! My schedule is filling quickly through September 29th, and I want to make sure you get your spot. Whether it’s a deep tissue massage, TMJ treatment, or a rejuvenating Holistic Healing and Integrative Bodywork session, let’s make it happen.

If you can’t make it before I leave, no worries - you can pre-book your sessions for my return in the second half of October. I also wanted to drop a friendly reminder that you can join my automated waitlist, there are always last minute spots opening up, and we don't want you to miss out. I’ll be back October 15th, ready to dive into your wellness journey with the same focus and care you’ve come to expect, and rely upon.

Of course, my amazing team of practitioners is here for you in my absence. From massage to facials, sound baths, and more, they are ready to take care of you - so don’t let my mini-break slow down your self-care! Maybe this is the time when you try a Manual Lymphatic Drainage session with Paz or Kate, or get in with Michelle or Sandra for TMJ, or a facial with Dani. Whatever your body is calling for, we have your self care covered.

Book your session today and secure your preferred time, whether it’s before I leave or for your first session when I return. We’ll make sure you don’t miss a beat in your wellness routine.

With gratitude,
Maria
