Local entrepreneur Nina Amidon, owner of the new Elements Therapeutic Massage in Morris Plains, is on a mission to help area consumers experience the healing benefits of massage therapy with services tailored to meet their unique needs. Her massage studio, located at 1767 Route 10, opened in July.The Morris Plains studio is open seven days a week, welcomes walk-ins, and offers a membership program that allows clients to receive regular, discounted massage therapy services throughout each month.

Before opening the Morris Plains studio, Amidon worked in many fields, including Internet advertising and as a school librarian. She was introduced to the therapeutic benefits of massage when her husband, who hadinjured his back in a car accident, turned to massage for its physical and emotional healing powers.

“We are focused on providing customized massages to each and every client – our therapists use the right technique and right pressure that you just don’t find at alternative massage retailers,” says Amidon.Once viewed as an indulgence, therapeutic massage has become increasingly more affordable. At Elements, it’s available to time-starved consumers who recognize the value of massage in maintaining their overall health and wellness. Those who receive regular massages benefit from lower levels of stress hormones, a heightened immune system, and increased circulation.
