Saltwater Massage Studio's avatarCape Ann Wellness

We know that GMG was a big Mamie’s Kitchen fan back in the day, so we’d thought you guys would get a kick out of seeing inside Saltwater Massage Studio.  It’s pretty hard to believe that not too long ago, corn beef hash was being served in the same spot that our salt scrubs and candles are shelved.  It’s a transformation you have to see to believe…  In Joey’s words, “It’s pretty hard to believe there’s an oasis on Pleasant St., but you did it.”

Want to see it in person? Stop by on Men’s Night on 12.17 from 6 – 9 (we don’t discriminate!)  Otherwise, we’re open by appointment 7 days a week.  Call us at 978-390-7600 or visit our website to make an appointment.  We hope to see you soon!

Follow us on Instagram to see more of what we’re up to…

Got a brand new guy to unwrap on you this Thursday: Mr. Johnny BlueHorn neé Morriconi or something like that. Been hearing about this dude for years, had a chance to play with him recently and he just knocked me out. Get this: he toots the trumpet and sings and basically sends one into the stratosphere. Love his toons. A real showman! Not only that, but our old buddy Ricky “Burger King” Russell will be returning on guitar and vocals after a long recovery from cosmetic surgery. I’ve missed him! Hope I recognize him! Drum chores filled in by the spattering pile driver hisself: Mr. Ephraim Lowell. Or is it E-frame? E-mail? I dunno, but he does. I’ll be there, too!
