Seattle’s Original Massage Center
Established in 1950, the Ballard Health Center and Wellness Spa is a second-generation family run business practicing alternative healthcare. It is Seattle’s oldest massage center, providing personalized spa and medical massage, acupuncture, reflexology, and yoga.
Our Mission
We believe massage is an integral part of the body’s restoration of natural health. The beneficial effects of massage include lowering stress, treating muscle aches and muscle-related conditions, restoring flexibility, relieving pain, and more.
In June 1980, John Salo the founder of Ballard Health Center, was quoted by the
Ballard News Tribune. “One of the biggest things we work with is body tension, we’re living in a society where it’s very hard not to build up tension just from everyday living.”
Massage can help release that tension as he said then, and we still believe this today.
Our Promise
With a highly skilled staff, we are proud to provide outstanding services as a part of your care team. The Ballard Health Center and Wellness Spa prides itself on practitioners that tailor their massages to each client. We personalize body work that combines relaxation and therapeutic massage.
Thank you for visiting,
Aaron and Kate Salo and the Ballard Health Center Staff
