Why a home massage makes the perfect birthday gift
Our lives are busier than ever and it's not always easy to fit in self-care. A home massage gift card gives them the power to relax on their schedule, with no travel or stress.
Whether you're looking for an original birthday gift for your husband, friend, sibling or someone else, you can't go wrong with a massage. Even better when that experience comes to them at home, delivered by one of Urban's qualified and pre-vetted therapists.
Don't just take our word for it..
"I wanted to treat my boyfriend to a birthday massage. His text after the massage read 'I feel like a million dollars, best massage I've ever had'. I think that speaks for itself."
"Lovely birthday massage. Just what I needed to relax."
"Got this massage for my wife as a surprise birthday gift and she can't stop raving about it."
