Relaxing at the bookstore

My parents indulged in a weekly ritual at their local bookstore in Texas.  My mom would browse the shelves while my dad treated himself to a cafe au lait and a ten-minute neck and shoulder massage.  They did this for years, and loved it.  So I was delighted to meet a massage therapist, new to the neighborhood, who was open to offering this service in my little bookstore!

Sheila Neumann of Poppy Massage now offers relaxing chair massages in the bookstore on Saturday evenings, 5-7pm.  At $1 per minute, you set your relaxation budget by setting your time limit.  Walk-ins are always welcome, but you can also call ahead to request a time.

Sheila also provides complete massage therapy services in the Poppy Massage studio located above Proper Eats, just 2 doors over from the bookstore.  For more information, visit the Poppy Massage website
