Right after "How are you able to do massages for $39?" is our second most asked question: "Where did you come up with the name 'Brown Bag Massage'?" Appropriately, the answers are related.

At the end of each massage, we give you a bottle of water and a brownie. We put those items in a brown paper bag.

Pretty silly, huh?

But there's some deeper philosophical meanings to "brown bag." Let's explore just one.

Our favorite customers are the thrifty-minded folks -- just like us -- who've more than once taken their lunch in a brown paper bag. "Joe and I brown-bagged-it today."

Let's compare. You could go out to lunch to the "Great Big Steak Place Where You Have To Dress To The Nines" for some pretty good food. You'll walk away with a nice full tummy. And, if you're lucky, you'll only drop $25 to $35.

Or you could head down to the locally owned joint where the owner spends his energies preparing and serving you great food. He knows you're not there for the fancy decor. You'll get the same nice full tummy for a heck of a lot less than the "Great Big Steak Place" would have nailed you for.

And that's the same philosophy we bring to massage therapy.

You could head over to "Great Big Spa Where You Have To Dress To The Nines" and drop around a hundred bucks on a good massage.

Or you could visit Brown Bag Massage and get a great massage (and a brownie!) for a whole lot less.

Back to the most frequently asked question: "How are you able to do massages for $39?" We suggest you turn it around and ask those "Great Big Spas," "Why are your massages so expensive?"

Because while "Brown Bag Massage" may be a silly name, we think paying a hundred bucks for massage is even sillier.
