A MIND AND BODY CONNECTION
I would like to let everyone know I have added a second location. I am also at American Fitness in Troy. It is just a nice fit as I love working out there and they have added so many new classes, which I love, and I can massage. At American Fitness we are able to do couple massages, which is nice for anniverseries or any special occasion. My Maryville location now has an infrared sauna and the benefits of the sauna and of course the massage are numerous. Please call to schedule your appointment today and I look forward to seeing everyone at Kurts Carstar this Thursday. 100% of donations for chair massage goes to the Make A Wish Foundation.
