Meet the Founder
Caroline's passion for massage therapy began in Kenya. She went on to train professionally at Universal Massage Institute in Dallas, then founded Alpha Massage & Wellness here in Minneapolis.
Her approach is simple: listen first. Pressure, pace and focus are shaped around each guest, whether you need to unwind completely or finally loosen that knot in your shoulder.
Read Caroline's story →“Wow. Just wow. Caroline just gave me the best massage of my life. I needed relief and she delivered. Because I’m so tense, I need intense pressure and she was able to give me just the right amount to melt my tension away. I even asked for more time. She is so amicable. The place is immaculately clean. Loved my session and will be back for more.”

“This was my first time receiving a massage and it was a gift from my boyfriend for my Birthday. Hilda was my masseuse and was phenomenal. She made sure I felt very comfortable and talked me through every stage. We ended up talking and really connecting, which made my experience even better than it already was. If I could give her a 10 star rating I would. This was the best Birthday gift and I will be coming back because she was exceptional!”

Good to Know
What happens at my first visit?
Your therapist will ask a few quick questions about how you're feeling, the pressure you like and any areas to focus on or avoid. Then you'll have the private room to get comfortable before your massage begins.
What should I wear?
Wear whatever is comfortable. For most massages you undress to your own comfort level, and you stay covered with a sheet the whole time except for the area being worked on.
How much pressure will I get?
That's up to you. Every session is tailored, from light and soothing to deep and intense, and you can ask your therapist to adjust at any point. If you want the deepest work we offer, book the Beat Me Up Massage™.
How early should I arrive?
We recommend arriving 10–15 minutes before your scheduled appointment. This gives you time to check in, settle in and prepare for your treatment. Please arrive on time so you can enjoy your full session.
What is your cancellation policy?
We ask for at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or change an appointment. Late cancellations and missed appointments may be subject to a cancellation fee, and a card on file is required to secure your reservation. See all studio policies.
Where do I park?
Parking is free for our guests at 115 N 1st Street: choose from a free parking lot, a free multi-storey car park or free street parking. Allow 10–15 minutes to park and find the studio.
