Our Story
At Elysium Massage, we believe that every body is beautiful, worthy of care and deserving of rest. Our journey began when founders Alissa Paolella and Matt McGuire noticed a recurring frustration in the industry: people were struggling to find reliable massage therapists who could accommodate same-day or even same-week appointments, and clients often felt abandoned as therapists came and went from similar establishments.
We realized that the massage experience should never be a guessing game. It should be dependable, seamless and, above all, personal. That’s why we built Elysium Massage differently. From the moment you book, your care is prioritized. Payment is made at booking to honor the time and commitment of our skilled therapists, and flexible policies ensure fairness for both clients and staff. Our team enjoys a dependable income so they can focus on what they do best: providing healing, customized care that meets you exactly where you are.
But Elysium is about more than reliability — it’s about creating a sanctuary. We dreamed of a space where all bodies are celebrated, every identity is affirmed, and judgment has no place. Here, you can relax, recharge and receive care that’s tailored to you. Whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth, you are seen, valued and cared for.
From the front desk to the treatment room, Elysium Massage is built on a simple belief: everyone deserves rest, healing and the confidence that comes from being fully supported in their body and self. This is our promise — and our passion.
