Doing an online search for chair massage near me?  Know that Serenity Massage is located in Iowa.  Many times you get an out-of-state company who is very good at marketing when doing online searches for chair massages near me.  Thank you for shopping local! -Jill
 
Typing massage near me might get you a massage now at other places, but make sure you ask questions when scheduling your appointment. For example, some places will say they offer couples massage but the massages aren’t in the same room.  At Serenity Massage they are.
 
Last-minute massage appointments are available for today Friday  2/15 between 10 and 4, and between 5:30 and 8 (single or couples massage). A single massage session is available at 4. Call 515-270-0030 or click Book an Appointment above. -Jill
