Care Massage

Care Massage has been in business since 2010 and works from office 307 on the third floor of the Crown Building in Tampa's Westshore area. Alongside therapeutic and medical massage, it offers veterans massage therapy and accepts V/A health care insurance members, who are asked to call (813) 532-7462 to book. The site shows ratings of 5 out of 5 from 741 reviews and 4.8 out of 5 from 200 reviews.

Each massage is customized and offered in 30, 60, or 90 minute sessions, and those times include time for dressing and a consultation. The massage tables are heated with infrared, and music plays through a Bose premium sound system. Add-ons include hot stone or cupping therapy, and percussive therapy with a Theragun, which a licensed massage therapist may apply during a session. A topical pharmaceutical-grade CBD cream can be applied to tight areas. Reflexology sessions use a herbal foot lotion scented with peppermint and lemon peel.

The Care Plan is a month-to-month recurring charge of $70, billed to a credit or debit card, for one prepaid hour of customized Signature massage. Unused prepaid sessions roll over, and any extra sessions in the same month are charged at 40% off the regular price. The business says Care Plan members can save up to 50% on services. There is no long-term contract, and the plan can be cancelled at any time.

Session prices differ for members and non-members. A 30-minute customized massage is $35 for members and $50 for non-members. A 60-minute session is $70 for members and $110 for non-members, listed as a 55-minute session, and a 90-minute member session is $105, listed as 1 hour 25 minutes. Prices are subject to change. A 24-hour advance cancellation notice avoids a charge, fees and amounts paid are not refundable but do not expire, and a no-call, no-show may forfeit a session from a package or plan. Members, package holders, and gift card holders have charges deducted from the account, package, or gift card kept on file.

Each session is customized to the client, with a focus on organic and natural products.

Heated massage tables and a premium sound system set a calm, comfortable room.
