Couples Massage Gift Card from Tao Spa
A couples massage is the rare gift that both people use, both people enjoy, and both people remember. Our gift card for the couples massage at Tao Spa is open-amount, no-expiration, and good at both Glenside (where the dedicated candlelit couples room lives) and Spring House. Built for the anniversaries, the engagements, the Valentine's Days where booking the exact day is impossible — and for the just-because gifts that land hardest of all.
I · What it covers
The session, in the room they remember
The Glenside location has a dedicated couples massage room — candles, dim lighting, two side-by-side tables, and two licensed therapists running parallel sessions. Couples can pick the same style or split it (one deep tissue, one relaxation; one hot stone, one Thai). 60, 75, or 90 minutes. The room is private to your party for the whole booking — no shared walls, no interruptions.
Why couples gravitate to massage as a shared ritual is well established. The American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) tracks relaxation, stress relief, and quality time as the leading reasons people seek out massage — and a shared spa hour layers the third reason on top of the first two. Mayo Clinic Health System on massage for depression, anxiety, and stress describes massage as a supportive practice for couples carrying compounding stress — both partners walking in tense, both leaving with their shoulders down. Mayo Clinic on the role of massage therapy for mental health takes the same line — touch-based bodywork as a meaningful complement when a relationship needs an honest hour off the grid.
Spring House also runs couples massage, with a slightly different room feel (more natural light, quieter neighborhood). Either way, the gift card is honored at both — your recipients pick whichever fits their schedule.
II · Why people buy this gift
Five occasions, one gift
Anniversary
The most common reason a couples gift card lands. Mark the card with the year, hand it over, let them pick the date.
Valentine's Day
Easier than booking the actual Feb 14 slot (which sells out). Gift card with a 'pick a weekend in February' card works beautifully.
Engagement / Wedding
Easier than picking a dish or a gadget. A spa morning before the big day is a gift the couple remembers.
Birthday
Especially for the partner who 'never goes to the spa' — couples format means they have company through it.
Just Because
Honestly the best version. Mid-year random surprise — no occasion. Lands hardest.
III · How much to put on the card
A reasonable budget guide
| Card amount | Covers | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| $200 | 60-min Couples Massage | Most common couples gift |
| $260 | 75-min Couples Luxury Massage | Upgraded session |
| $300 | 90-min Candle-Lit Couples Massage | Anniversary-grade |
| $350 | 60-min Couples Massage + Couples Reflexology + add-on | Spa morning, two sessions |
| $400+ | Full spa day for two | Massage + facial combo, side by side |
| Custom | Any amount | Pick a number that fits the relationship |
Tip is at the recipient's discretion — most leave 18-20%. If you want the card to cover tip too, add about 20% to the amounts above.
IV · Three ways to send it
Sending the gift
By phone: call (215) 824-8585, give us the amount, the recipient name, and the email address. E-card sent in a few minutes.
Online: through the Glenside gift card store or the Spring House gift card store. Pick the amount, write a personal message, check out. Lands in their inbox.
In person: we will hand you a printed card in a sleeve and write a calligraphy message by hand. Visit either location during open hours.
"Sending the e-card on Valentine's morning still counts. We have done plenty of 7 AM 'I need this in 10 minutes' gifts. It works."
Two people, one card
How a couples massage gift card from Tao Spa gets used
A couples massage gift card is bought the same way as any other Tao Spa card, online through the gift card store for either location, but it is worth thinking about who will actually open the email. Send it to the partner who does the planning, because one of the two has to pick a date, book online or by phone, and make sure both calendars are clear for the same ninety minutes. Put both names in the message so it reads as a gift to the pair rather than to one inbox, and remind them to book far enough ahead that two therapists are free at the same hour.
Match the amount to a session on the couples menu. The Candle-Lit Couples Massage runs 60 or 90 minutes and is the session most buyers have in mind. The Couples Luxury Massage is 75 minutes, Couples Reflexology is a 60-minute option that keeps the work on the feet, and the Couples Healthy Combo Massage is 60 minutes with clothes on and no oil for a pair who are unsure about the whole idea. Look up the current price of the session you have chosen on the booking page, set the card to cover it, and add a little extra if you want them to finish with a 15-minute Cupping or Gua Sha add-on.
What you write depends on the date you are working around. For Valentine's Day, order the card in the first week of February and say in the message that any weekend that month counts, which takes the pressure off the fourteenth itself. For an anniversary, put the year on the card and let them decide whether to book on the day or the weekend after. For a wedding or an engagement, a line suggesting they use it in the tired week after the ceremony is more useful than a general congratulations. Keep it to two or three sentences; the card is not the place for a speech.
Redeeming is the same at both locations. The pair book whichever address suits them, bring the e-card or the printed card, and the balance is applied to the session. Glenside has the dedicated candle-lit couples room and is open 9 AM to 9 PM every day, while Spring House also runs couples sessions from 10 AM to 9 PM and is closed on Tuesdays, so a pair with only Tuesday free should head to Keswick Avenue. If the card covers more than the session costs, the remainder stays on it, and a couple who would rather have separate solo appointments can split the balance across two bookings instead.
Two licensed massage therapists work the two tables at either location, one per person, which is what makes the session professional rather than merely pleasant. Tao Spa Glenside is rated 4.7 stars from 277 Google reviews; put that in the message if the pair have never been, and let the top-rated room do the persuading. The expert part of the gift is the hour on the tables; your part is finished once the amount is set, the message is written and the email is sent, and because the card never expires it will wait for them until the right weekend comes along.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do they have to use the gift card the same day?
No. They book whenever it works — next weekend, in three months, on an anniversary date you mark on the card. No expiration. They also do not need to use the full balance in one session — leftover credit stays on the card for the next visit.
Can I buy a couples gift card for two separate sessions?
Yes. The card is dollar-value, not service-locked. They can use it for one couples massage, or split it across two solo sessions, or stack it with a Massage + Facial combo. Whatever works.
What is a reasonable dollar amount for a couples massage gift?
A 60-min Candle-Lit Couples Massage at Glenside lands around $220 with tip. 75-min lands closer to $260. 90-min around $300. Most couples gift-card purchases are between $200 and $300. If you want them to add Couples Reflexology or champagne, $320–$350 covers it comfortably.
Can I add a romantic upgrade like champagne?
Yes — Glenside offers champagne welcome, chocolate-covered strawberries, and a Couples Reflexology add-on. Mention these at booking and we will set the room. They can also pay for the upgrade separately if you want the gift card to cover just the massage.
Is the gift card good at both Tao Spa locations?
Yes. Glenside has the dedicated candlelit couples room; Spring House also offers couples massage. The same card works at either. Couples massage is a Glenside specialty, but the card is flexible.
Can I make it look like a real gift, not just an email?
Yes — we offer a printed card in a sleeve with a hand-written calligraphy message, available at either location during open hours. Some clients have us write the message and mail the card directly to the recipient's address — call us and we will arrange it.
Is this a good Valentine's Day or anniversary gift?
Yes — couples massage is consistently our most-gifted service for Valentine's Day, anniversaries, and engagement gifts. We sell out the actual Valentine's Day couples slots a week early most years, so a gift card is the cleaner play: they pick a date that works.
