About On Site Plus
Q. What is On-site Chair Massage?
Chair Massage is an acupressure massage performed by trained professionals in a specially designed ergonomic chair. It focuses on high-tension areas including the neck, shoulders, back, arms, and hands. Typical times are 15 to 20 minutes.

Q. Will this disrupt my workplace?
Absolutely not! We work unobtrusively in a vacant room or quiet corner. Sessions are short and take no longer than a coffee break.
