Young mothers have a difficult time getting out of the house. They want to relax and have fun with their girlfriends, like they did before the baby came along. If they have more than one to care for, they are especially stressed and would appreciate a girl's night with some close friends, having massages and facials and lots of gossip.

Career women also love getting together for massages and a skincare and makeup presentation or a jewelry presentation with plenty of time for catching up with friends and lots of good food.

There are many more types of massage parties. Maybe a few of these ideas will give you ideas for one yourself.

A chair massage business can involve having chair massage parties that are fun for clients. They are a great way for massage therapists to get new clients.

I have been a guest at several and I have been the therapist at some. Each party has a different mood, depending on what the clients want.

For instance, Donna hosted one for a few of her friends where I was the massage therapist. Donna and her guests started by giving each other facials while I gave massages to the guests in a corner. After the massages were through, about two and a half hours later, I packed up and left and they were going into makeup and hairstyles.

Another chair massage party that I worked was a pajama party for ladies in their twenties and thirties. Yes, a slumber party and they were really having fun. I worked on the shoulders, neck, back, and feet while they ate and watched movies.

The possibilities for incorporating massage into any event are endless as feeling great will work with almost any theme. They will help to grow your chair massage business by giving the client new ways to hold gatherings for friends.

Everyone likes their party to be trendy. The host can choose to pay for the therapist or can explain to the guests that if they would like the services of the therapist, they will need to pay for it. It just depends on the type of event you are having.A massage party is a great way for a new massage therapist to gain clients. It is best to invite as many people as possible with the understanding that as many as one to two-thirds of those you invite will not show up.After I got my therapy license, I decided to kick off my practice by inviting friends and relatives to my house for snacks and complimentary chair massages.

I invited everyone I could think of and had my three kids do the same. To my shock, more than two-thirds of the invited guests showed up!

I had my massage chair set up on the deck in the backyard. My kids helped out with greeting and serving food and drinks while I gave massage after massage.

The party was a success and I managed to pick up some regular clients and a few semi-regular clients who call when they are hurting.

That massage party worked so well that I decided a few months later to ask a friend to host one at her home where I would give free chair massages to pick up more clients.

So she invited her friends, neighbors, and co-workers. The weather was cooler by then so we had everything indoors. Guests mingled and some watched a movie while I gave massages. I ended up booking some new clients for table massage and picked up 3 more regular clients.
