Two Rivers Massage Opens on Airport Concourse
Relax. Fisher has just made that easier for passengers at The Eastern Iowa Airport in Cedar Rapids by “opening” up her chair on the C Concourse. Fischer’s business is Two Rivers Massage, based in Quad Cities. She was recently awarded a contract by the Cedar Rapids Airport Commission to being her chair massage business in the Airport. A Moline High School graduate, Fisher is a Nationally Certified Bodyworker and Massage Therapist, graduating from the University of Alaska Anchorage’s Massage Therapy Program in 1999. She is also an airline veteran, having worked for 12 years in Alaska. Two Rivers Massage has been providing “Touch & Go" Chair Massages for several companies in the Quad Cities area and when the opportunity at The Eastern Iowa Airport presented itself, Fischer knew she wanted to be involved. "I realized that all of the local massage schools are providing our communities with so many great massage therapists, but there are few massage opportunities," Fisher said. She said she decided to use her entrepreneurial spirit and her love of massage to create massage locations that provide massage therapists with some great exposure and educate the public about the essential benefits of massage. Airport Director Dan Mann said the addition of Two Rivers Massage is another example of a customer service enhancement he believes are vital to the Airport. “We all stress to passengers to check in at their airline counter and get through security, to lessen checkpoint lines,” Mann said. “But in many places, once you get beyond the checkpoint, there’s little for a passenger to do. Ms. Fisher’s service is a great diversion for business and leisure travelers waiting to board their plane.” Fisher employs only local, licensed massage therapists. The chair is located along the C Concourse. Daily hours are 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. . Prices for a chair massage are $1 per minute. For $5, the five-minute massage would provide a customer with an introduction to the service. For 30 minutes - $30 – you receive a “very thorough stress-busting massage,” Fischer said.
