What sixty minutes actually costs.
Start with the figure, because it is the first thing anybody asks at the desk. A 60-minute oil massage here is $80. That is the walk-in price, the booked-ahead price, the Tuesday-at-ten price and the Saturday-at-seven price. One number per service and per length, all of them on the published menu, and none of them ask you to belong to something first.
That sentence needs saying out loud because the two corporate studios closest to Chanhassen quote two numbers each, and only one of them goes on the sign. The advertised per-session rate is the member rate. Anyone who has not joined pays a considerably higher figure — and the higher figure is the honest comparison, because it is the one you hand over on the day you actually walk through a door.
The chain figures in the table are published non-member rates for a single 60-minute session at those two studios, read in July 2026. Treat them as a snapshot with a date on it rather than a permanent fact: they move on a schedule nobody outside those companies controls. Ours come off our own menu and have not moved.
The last column is the same arithmetic run across a year at six visits, which is roughly what somebody who says they go every couple of months actually manages.
| Option | One session | What you sign up for | Six visits in a year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day Massage — 30 minutes | $55 | Nothing. You pay at the counter on the day. | $330 |
| Day Massage — 60 minutes | $80 | Nothing. No card on file, no monthly anything. | $480 |
| Day Massage — 90 minutes | $120 | Nothing. Same price whoever you are. | $720 |
| Day Massage — 120 minutes | $160 | Nothing. No package to buy into first. | $960 |
| Nearest national chain — 60 min, non-member | about $140 | Nothing — but this is the rate you pay without the membership | about $840 |
| Second chain studio, Eden Prairie — 60 min, non-member | about $119 | Same structure: the advertised price is the member price | about $714 |
| Either chain, at the member rate | Lower per session | Monthly autopay, credits with an expiry date, written notice to cancel | Twelve charges, six visits used |
Chain figures are the published non-member rates for one 60-minute session at the two nearest corporate studios in this corridor, read in July 2026 — a dated snapshot, not a standing fact. We do not name them: their pricing changes on a schedule we do not control, and a page that quotes a competitor by name ages badly. Our own figures come straight off our menu. Gratuity is not included in any of them.
— Autopay, credits, cancel notice
What a membership signs you up for.
A massage membership is a subscription. That is not an insult — for somebody who genuinely goes every single month, the arithmetic can land in their favour, and plenty of people do exactly that. It is simply worth reading the terms before the first month posts, because the details are where these things bite.
Broadly, and allowing for the fact that every company words it differently, this is the shape of the deal:
- Monthly autopay. A card is charged every month whether or not you book. The discounted rate exists because the payment keeps happening.
- Credits that expire. An unused month usually rolls over — but rollover comes with an expiry date, and with rules about what happens if you pause or freeze the account.
- Notice to cancel. Ending a membership is typically a written request with a notice period rather than a click, so expect at least one more charge after the day you decide to stop.
- Transfer limits. Whether a partner or a friend can spend your credit varies, and it is usually narrower than people assume when they sign.
- The base-rate problem. The member price buys the standard session. Longer sessions and enhancements sit on top of it, which is why the number you remember and the number you pay can drift apart.
The version without any of that
You come in. A 60-minute session is $80. You pay for it, you leave, and if you do not come back for five months, nothing has been quietly leaving your bank account in the meantime. Gratuity is the only thing to add to the figure, and that is entirely your call.
The honest way to compare the two is this: a membership is cheaper per session only if you actually use every session you buy. So count how many of the last twelve months you would truly have gone in — not the number you would like to be, the real one — and run the sum with that. For most people the answer is four or five, and at four or five visits a year, published pricing wins without needing a spreadsheet.
— Five questions for any front desk
Worth asking before you sign anything.
Take these to whichever place you are considering, this one included. If a front desk cannot answer each of them in a sentence, that is information too.
- Is the price you just quoted me the member price or the price everyone pays?
- If I join, what is charged monthly, and what happens to a month I do not use?
- How do I cancel — a phone call, a form, a letter — and how much notice do you need?
- Can somebody else use a session I have paid for?
- What gets added at the table that is not in the price I was quoted?
Ours, in order
The price we quote is the price everyone pays. There is no membership, so nothing is charged monthly and nothing expires — you cannot lose money here by not showing up. There is nothing to cancel. And the only thing anyone will offer you at the table is a hot stone add-on at $10, which you can decline without a second conversation.
If the drive is the part you are weighing rather than the money, our Carver County page carries the measured mileage, minutes and route from every town around here — including several that are closer to this corner than they look on a map.
— Pioneer Trail, six miles west
One road out of Chanhassen.
Chanhassen to our door is 6.1 miles and about ten minutes off-peak, and you do not need the freeway to do it. Pioneer Trail — CSAH 14 — runs west out of Chanhassen and meets the Hwy 41 light. We are on that corner. If you have ever driven Pioneer Trail toward Hazeltine, you have already driven past us.
Leaving an office at 5:15 is a different trip from leaving at 7:30, so give the evening peak a few extra minutes. The county page runs the rush-hour arithmetic properly, with measured times from every town in this corridor and Chanhassen among them.
The building sits in Chaska Commons, at Hwy 41 and Pioneer Trail. Parking is a free surface lot directly in front of the door — no ramp, no meter, no circling — with accessible spaces right at the entrance. A fair number of people park once and fold the week's errands around the appointment, which is an efficiently Minnesotan way to schedule an hour off.
— The other half of the comparison
No contract, and no eleven-day wait.
Price is only half of what a membership costs you. The other half is the calendar. Appointment-only is the standard model in this corridor, and the slot you actually want — after work, or on a Sunday — is the one that model is worst at handing out.
We take walk-ins whenever a therapist is free, and the last booking of the day is late enough that leaving the office at 7:00 still works. The full weekly grid, and an honest read on when walk-in odds are good, is on its own page.
If what you are really weighing is whether this is worth doing regularly at all, we wrote a plain answer to that. The short version: probably less often than a membership needs you to go.

Questions we get
most often.
Still unsure? Call (612) 600-9298 — someone at the front desk will actually pick up.
Do I need a membership to get the $80 rate?
No. There is no membership, no monthly charge and no package to buy first. $80 is what a 60-minute oil massage costs for everybody — first visit, tenth visit, walk-in or booked online. Gratuity is not included in that figure.
Is the price different in the evening or on a Sunday?
No. One price per service and per length, all day, every day of the week. A 7:30 PM Sunday session costs exactly the same as a 10:00 AM Wednesday one — $80 for the 60-minute oil massage either way.
How far is Day Massage from Chanhassen?
About 6.1 miles and roughly 10 minutes off-peak — straight west on Pioneer Trail (CSAH 14) to the Hwy 41 light, no freeway required. Allow a few extra minutes if you are setting off from an office at five o'clock.
How much does a massage cost?
Sessions run $35–$240 depending on service and length. The most-booked option is the 60-minute oil massage at $80. Our full menu and every price is listed on the services page — no packages required, no membership, no upsell at the table.
Is gratuity included?
Gratuity is not included in the listed prices. It's appreciated but entirely up to you, and it's never expected.
— Background reading
Massage is one of the oldest forms of self-care, and what we do is squarely on the relaxation side of it.

Those are general educational references about the practice, not statements about any particular session here.
Day Massage is a relaxation and wellness studio, not a medical provider. Nothing here is medical advice — if something hurts in a way that worries you, see a clinician.
