Massage therapy is an essential part of maintaining health and wellness, and the team at Happy Head takes both your well-being and safety seriously. During the coronavirus pandemic, we made the difficult decision to temporarily close most of our San Diego locations to protect our guests and therapists.

Why Happy Head Temporarily Closed

Hello Happy Head fans. In an effort to prevent the spread of coronavirus, the Happy Head is temporarily closing all the locations except the Sports Arena / Point Loma location. President Donald Trump declared a national emergency over the coronavirus on Friday. As of Saturday, nearly 3,000 coronavirus cases had been reported in the United States, while more than 152,000 cases have been reported globally. Health experts have encouraged people to respond by practicing “social distancing,” which includes avoiding large gatherings and maintaining a physical distance of about six feet from other people. While we have not had any reported cases of coronavirus at our facilities, we want to ensure that we minimize the spread of the disease. You can still purchase a massage gift card online and if you need to get a massage or chiropractic care, the Sports Arena / Point Loma location will remain open until further notice. We understand this is a difficult time for everyone, but we want to do our best to ensure that this crisis passes quickly before we continue operations. Thank you to our staff and our many wonderful customers who have made the Happy Head the go to place to get massage in San Diego. After all, it’s people like you who make what we do possible.

Your Safety During Massage Appointments

At Happy Head, the health and safety of our guests has always been our top priority. When the coronavirus began spreading across San Diego and the rest of the country, we knew that temporarily pausing therapeutic services at most locations was the responsible choice. This type of therapy involves close personal contact, and we wanted to ensure that every precaution was in place before welcoming guests back.

Our team used the temporary closure period to implement enhanced cleaning protocols, install protective barriers, and train all therapists on updated hygiene procedures. These measures ensure that when you visit Happy Head for a session, you can relax knowing that your safety is our primary concern.

The Importance of Massage for Stress Relief

Times of uncertainty and stress make bodywork and therapeutic care even more valuable. Research from the American Massage Therapy Association shows that regular therapeutic sessions can reduce cortisol levels, improve sleep quality, and boost immune function. During challenging periods like a pandemic, these benefits become especially important for maintaining both physical and mental health.

Whether you prefer a deep tissue treatment, Swedish session, or sports therapy, the licensed therapists at Happy Head are trained to deliver personalized treatments that address your specific needs. A professional therapy session can help relieve tension headaches, reduce muscle pain, and promote overall relaxation during stressful times.

Staying Connected with Happy Head

Even during our temporary closure, the team at Happy Head remained committed to serving the San Diego community. We encouraged our guests to stay connected through our website and social media channels for the latest updates on reopening plans. Our therapists continued their professional development during this time, ensuring they were ready to provide exceptional therapeutic experiences once we could safely reopen all locations.

We appreciate the patience and support of our loyal guests during this unprecedented time. Your trust in Happy Head means everything to our team, and we look forward to welcoming you back for a relaxing and rejuvenating experience at any of our convenient San Diego locations.
