Chair Massage
Our acupressure-style chair massage targets shoulders, back, arms, and neck while clients remain fully clothed. This 1035 minute service reduces workplace stress while improving focus. Therapists use portable chairs designed for comfort in office environments or events.
Corporate Wellness Programs
Customizable monthly massage plans include weekly, biweekly, or monthly therapist visits. Corporations receive 10% off recurring services with guaranteed therapist availability. Programs help reduce employee burnout and improve workplace morale through regular massage sessions.
Recurring Massage Services
Clients schedule ongoing sessions through our automated system with email and text reminders. Options include 4-hour minimum bookings for events or regular weekly/monthly schedules. Our system ensures no appointment overlaps and easy rescheduling for participants.
Acupressure-Style Technique
Based on founder Tom Darileks training from David Palmer, this technique combines deep pressure on trigger points with lymphatic drainage. Sessions leave clients relaxed yet alert, making it ideal for mid-day workplace use without causing post-massage fatigue.

Some people were a little apprehensive to participate the first time we had the chair massages. However, the second session was full because participants from the first session were raving about it! The feedback for both sessions was very, very positive, and I'm certain we'll request these services from Seize the Day again. Clair was wonderful!

I have been blessed to have found David at the Barton Springs Car Wash at South Lamar and Barton Springs. David is truly a gifted healer. I can not recommend David more highly - as I walked in with discomfort and walked out feeling 100% better! David is simply a miracle worker!

I woke up with horrible neck tension, and by lunchtime I was struggling to turn my head. These guys were closest to my downtown office, so I booked it over there during my lunch hour. Tom was working today, and in 20 minutes he fixed me right up! I'm so glad I found this little gem, and I will definitely be back.

We had Seize the Day perform chair massages for our accounting professionals and support staff during the spring tax season and everyone loved it. In fact, chair massages had been requested by someone via our "suggestion box". The therapist did an excellent job. I know we will use Seize the Day in the future.

Seize the Day employees and owner are always professional, kind, and amazing at what they do. I have worked with them for about 2 years, and they have always gone above and beyond my expectations when booking their services.
