Twenty to forty times a day, travelers drop by First Class Massage with preflight jitters or muscle pain from cramped seats or too much vacationing in Rhode Island.

Stacia LaCroix and her staff of therapists know just what to do. In their corner of TF Green Airport's main concourse, they ease away the tension and pain with a seated massage, while you wait for your plane to board or your baggage to be unloaded.

Typical treatments are fifteen minutes, making good, healthy use of travelers' time. "Business travelers love our service," LaCroix says. "They're in the airport early because they want to avoid missing a flight, and they're nervous, not only because of flying, but because of the hard work they've just done or are going to do."

But business travelers aren't the only ones lining up to get their aches and pains eased. "A lot of people over-do the physical activity when they're on vacation," LaCroix says. With all of the hiking, biking, and water activities in Rhode Island, it's easy to understand wanting to do too much. Even carrying bags from the car to the check-in can having you begging for relief.

So next time you're in TF Green airport, with jitters or pain, look for First Class Massage, right at the enterance to the main concourse, to the left of the gift shop. Sign up for their frequent massage club, and relax.

You can call First Class Massage at 401/258-2609. No reservations are necesary. They also set up for conventions and events like company wellness days.
