The Woodlands, TX (August 28, 2009) – Massage for the Cure day is at Massage Envy for the third consecutive year.

Massage for the Cure takes place on Tuesday, September 15 at all twenty-seven Houston-area Massage Envy clinics including the Market Street location. And for the first time, Massage for the Cure will go national at more than 500 Massage Envy clinics around the country.   The 14-hour event is an opportunity to relax with a therapeutic massage and also help fight breast cancer. The event benefits Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

“The fundraising goal is $500,000 with more than 500 Massage Envy clinics across 40 states participating,” said Lance O’Pry, regional developer of Houston Massage Envy clinics.

“Just as before, every one of our Houston-area Massage Envy clinics will be fully staffed with licensed massage therapists,” said O’Pry. “Donations from the Houston area event will go to the Houston Komen affiliate for the needs of women in our community,” he said.

Here is what’s happening:

The fundraiser offers a one-hour therapeutic massage session for $35, to raise funds for Susan G. Komen for the Cure. From each massage session, $10 will be donated to the Komen Houston Affiliate to benefit Houston-area women for breast cancer education, screening and treatment programs. Additional donations are welcome.
