About Us
Why choose Bull City Massage Therapy?
We do things a little different around here. Our massage therapists function as a team and we are committed to always go above and beyond for our clients. When you choose to visit BCMT, you receive access to a team of skilled massage therapists with a singular goal....
to help YOU on your wellness journey.
Each of us have unique massage styles and utilize different therapeutic techniques. You may find that you prefer to stay with one therapist or rotate between us as needed but the focus is always on you. We always provide custom therapeutic sessions tailored to your specific needs to help you find balance in your body and your daily life. During your initial appointment, we will review your medical history to ensure the highest standard of care. Follow-up sessions include a review of your history and a discussion of new issues or concerns since your last session.
We use organic/vegan massage products by Sacred Earth, raw organic shea butters, organic coconut and jojoba oil.
