The Colorado Dental Association has brought us in for convention events at the Colorado Convention Center. The Hilton Garden Inn booked our massage therapists for a team appreciation event. Licensed Colorado massage therapists, fully managed, covering Downtown Denver, LoDo, Cherry Creek, Aurora, Centennial, Boulder, and the full metro.
The Colorado Convention Center is one of the largest convention facilities in the United States, and it attracts national professional associations, trade shows, and industry conferences that draw attendees from across the country. The Colorado Dental Association is one confirmed client in that convention market. Hotel properties like Hilton Garden Inn represent a different buyer type entirely. The hospitality industry runs its own employee appreciation and team recognition programs, booked independently of any convention activity.
These two buyer types rarely share vendors. When they do, it reflects consistent performance across very different event environments. A convention floor requires different logistics than a hotel staff break room, and the expectations on the day are different too. Our licensed Colorado massage therapists arrive fully equipped, handle their own setup, manage the session flow, and break down before leaving. Your event contact does nothing once the booking is confirmed.
We cover the full Denver metro from Downtown and LoDo through Cherry Creek, Aurora, Centennial, Englewood, Lakewood, Boulder, and Broomfield. Same coordinator, same standard, anywhere in the metro.

Bachus & SchankerEasy process from beginning to end.
Massage by Design has been so very pleasant to work with. Booking, the level of service, and total experience has been consistent regardless of where in the country our events have been located.
The Colorado Convention Center is among the largest convention facilities in the United States, hosting national professional association conventions, technology conferences, and major trade shows throughout the year. The Colorado Dental Association is a confirmed client that has used us at convention events in Denver. Chair massage at an exhibitor booth creates a visible draw that pulls qualified traffic off the main floor and into sustained one-on-one contact with a single team. Our licensed Colorado massage therapists work within standard booth configurations, manage their own session queue, and handle setup and breakdown independently. See the Colorado Convention Center event calendar.
Learn MoreThe Hyatt Regency Denver at the Colorado Convention Center and the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel handle a large share of the city's corporate conference calendar. The Gaylord Rockies Resort and Convention Center in Aurora and the Denver Marriott City Center anchor additional segments of the market. Chair massage during conference break periods gives attendees a brief physical recovery that is more memorable and more functional than a standard catered break. We work in pre-conference registration areas, session transition zones, and dedicated wellness spaces without requiring setup from the conference team on the day of the event.
Learn MoreDenver's technology, energy, financial services, and residential real estate sectors all run annual employee appreciation programs. Chair massage delivers a physical benefit that a catered meal or a gift card does not. Recipients feel a difference in their body in the 10 to 15 minutes they spend in the chair, and that difference is what they remember at the end of the day. In Denver's wellness-oriented workplace culture, chair massage participation rates at appreciation events tend to run higher than in comparable-size markets. Available for LoDo tech offices, Cherry Creek professional services firms, Centennial energy campuses, and corporate locations across the metro.
Learn MoreChair massage is a consistently high-traffic station at corporate health fairs because the benefit is immediate, visible, and physical. It creates an anchor that draws employees through the fair and increases dwell time at adjacent vendor tables. Our licensed Colorado massage therapists work independently within your fair layout, require no coordination from HR or facilities staff on the day of the event, and complete setup and breakdown without disrupting neighboring stations. Available for UCHealth, SCL Health, financial services employers in Cherry Creek, energy sector organizations in Centennial and Englewood, and corporate campuses throughout the Denver metro.
Learn MoreNurses Week at UCHealth and SCL Health draws some of the highest chair massage booking volumes in the Denver market each spring. Administrative Professionals Day at Charles Schwab, CoBank, and professional services firms in Cherry Creek. Teacher Appreciation Week at Denver Public Schools, Boulder Valley, and Jefferson County school districts. These programs run on annual recognition calendars and are booked by coordinators who have managed them before. We staff at the facility, on schedule, with all equipment provided and no requirements for facilities staff on the day of the event.
Learn MoreThe Denver metro spreads from the downtown convention and corporate core through a wide ring of suburban employer corridors with distinct industry concentrations. Our licensed Colorado massage therapists serve all of it, from the convention center floor to energy sector campuses in Centennial and technology employers in Boulder. If your event is within 100 miles of Downtown Denver, we have coverage.
Whether you're booking a Colorado Convention Center exhibit, a Gaylord Rockies conference session, or a Centennial campus appreciation day, the steps are the same whether you're booking a convention exhibit, a hotel staff event, or a Centennial campus appreciation day.
Date, location, and hours needed. A coordinator follows up within one business day with confirmed massage therapist availability and flat hourly pricing specific to your Denver venue and event size. Government entities, nonprofits, and institutional buyers who need a number for budget approval receive it before committing to anything.
After you confirm, massage therapist assignment and event logistics are handled on our end. Convention center load-in schedules, hotel event-day access, energy campus vendor requirements, and healthcare facility protocols are all coordinated by our team. Nothing comes back to your office before the event.
Your licensed Colorado massage therapist arrives before your event starts, sets up independently, and manages the session from beginning to end. We have served the Colorado Dental Association at convention events at the Colorado Convention Center, a Hilton Garden Inn property for team appreciation, and exhibitors and corporate clients throughout the Denver metro. Your team manages the event. We manage the chair massage.
Every recipient stays in their regular work attire. No oils, no undressing, nothing to prepare. A 10 to 15 minute chair massage works in a convention center booth, a hotel conference room, an energy campus break area, or a LoDo tech office without any preparation from the facility or the recipient. Showing up is the entire requirement, which is why participation rates in Denver corporate environments tend to be high — the barrier to a session is near zero.
A standard chair massage setup occupies 6.5 by 6.5 feet and requires no power, no water, and no special infrastructure. It works in a Colorado Convention Center trade show booth, a Cherry Creek financial services conference room, an Aurora UCHealth break room, or a Gaylord Rockies meeting corridor. The massage therapist brings all equipment and sets up independently before the event opens.
Neck, upper back, shoulders, and arms. These are where desk workers, clinical staff, trade show professionals standing on a convention floor, and anyone in a physically active work role accumulate tension across a long day. A 10 to 15 minute focused session addresses these areas directly. There is no recovery time, no aftereffect, and no transition period before the recipient returns to the event. Denver's health-conscious workforce tends to understand precisely what a quality massage session does, which increases the perceived value of the benefit.
Your licensed Colorado massage therapist arrives on time, sets up independently, runs the full session queue from start to finish, and breaks down after the event. Your event contact, whether that's a convention exhibitor coordinator, an HR manager at a Centennial campus, or a hotel operations, team member has no interaction with the chair massage operation from the moment the booking is confirmed through the end of the event day.
The Colorado Dental Association runs one of the state's largest professional association conventions, drawing dentists and dental professionals from across Colorado and nationally to the Colorado Convention Center. Hilton Garden Inn is a hotel brand that runs its own employee appreciation and team recognition programs at the property level. These two organizations represent two very different buyer types: a convention association event and a hospitality industry staff program with different venues, different audiences, and different logistical requirements. Consistent performance across both is what generates referrals in the Denver market. When Denver event planners ask for references, these are the confirmed clients we can name.
Massage by Design was founded in 2005 by Koko Klipper, a licensed massage therapist who built the company through direct event work. Every massage therapist assigned to a Denver event holds a current Colorado license and carries individual liability insurance. For organizations that require vendor documentation, convention center events with credentialing requirements, healthcare campuses with compliance protocols, or energy sector organizations with vendor approval processes. We provide complete licensure documentation on request without additional lead time.
Energy companies with corporate offices in Centennial and Denver plus field operations in other states, financial services firms with Denver and out-of-state locations, technology companies with Denver headquarters and remote offices, all book one coordinator and receive the same service standard in every city. No new vendor evaluation for each market. See all locations we serve at our locations page.
Chair massage is priced by the hour per massage therapist. The quote is the number you pay. No setup charges, no gratuity lines, no day-of surprises. For Colorado state agencies, nonprofits, university departments, and any Denver buyer who needs a clear budget line before approval, the flat hourly rate makes the internal process straightforward.

Three demand mechanisms generate recurring chair massage bookings in Denver, each operating through a different institutional structure.
The Colorado Convention Center creates one of the highest trade show exhibitor chair massage markets west of Chicago. The convention center's scale (one of the largest in the United States) means that individual shows draw exhibitor counts and attendee volumes that rival major coastal markets. National professional associations, including healthcare, technology, and industry trade organizations, hold their annual conventions in Denver specifically because the Colorado Convention Center can accommodate them. When a convention draws several thousand credentialed professionals, the exhibitor market for chair massage is proportionately large. The Gaylord Rockies Resort and Convention Center in Aurora adds a second major convention draw in the metro, particularly for corporate and incentive group events that fill the entire resort. Convention-focused demand in Denver is not seasonal. The Colorado Convention Center calendar runs year-round with minimal gaps.
Denver's wellness-oriented workplace culture produces higher chair massage participation rates than comparable mid-size metros. The Denver metro has an exceptionally high concentration of residents with active outdoor recreation habits (running, cycling, skiing, hiking) and that culture extends directly into the corporate workplace. Employees who are already physically active and attentive to recovery are more receptive to a corporate wellness benefit that delivers an immediate physical result than employees in markets where physical activity is less culturally central. The practical consequence for event planners is that chair massage stations in Denver tend to fill faster, generate longer voluntary lines, and receive stronger post-event feedback than similar programs in other markets. This higher receptivity is part of why the Colorado Dental Association, Hilton Garden Inn, and other Denver market clients have returned to the same vendor.
Denver's energy and technology suburban corridor generates large-scale campus appreciation programs that book earlier than the city's metro size would suggest. Centennial, Englewood, and the southern suburban corridor house a concentration of energy sector employers including Xcel Energy, DCP Midstream, and others with corporate campuses that run annual employee appreciation programs for large headcounts. Arrow Electronics in Centennial and Dish Network in Englewood represent the technology side of the same suburban employer corridor. These organizations run recognition programs with headcounts that would be typical of a much larger metro, and their HR and events coordinators have learned to book earlier than they initially expect because the available pool of licensed Colorado massage therapists in the Denver suburban market is smaller relative to demand than the downtown or LoDo market. Nurses Week at UCHealth and SCL Health system facilities in Aurora and across the metro follows the same pattern. Competing demand from two large healthcare networks in the same spring window consistently pushes the effective booking window to six to eight weeks out.
Yes. We staff trade shows, professional association conventions, and corporate events at the Colorado Convention Center and are familiar with its load-in process, exhibitor configurations, and multi-day event logistics. The Colorado Dental Association is a confirmed client that has used our massage therapists at convention events in Denver. Our licensed Colorado massage therapists work within booth footprints, manage their own session queue, and handle setup and breakdown without any involvement from your exhibit team. Learn more about trade show chair massage.
Yes. The Gaylord Rockies in Aurora is one of the largest resort convention destinations in the Denver metro and a regular venue for corporate incentive groups, national conferences, and multi-day association events. We serve exhibitors and conference planners at Gaylord Rockies events and are familiar with the resort's event-day logistics and vendor access process. Lead time for Gaylord Rockies events is typically four to six weeks out, with longer lead times recommended for major conventions that draw exhibitors from multiple states.
The most active buyer types in Denver are trade show and convention exhibitors at the Colorado Convention Center, hotel and hospitality teams (including Hilton Garden Inn properties that have booked us for staff events), Nurses Week coordinators at UCHealth and SCL Health, energy and technology sector HR teams in Centennial and Englewood, and financial services and professional services firms in Cherry Creek and LoDo. Additional common types include health fairs at Charles Schwab, CoBank, and other financial services employers, Administrative Professionals Day programs at corporate headquarters throughout the metro, and annual campus appreciation days at technology and research organizations in Boulder and Broomfield.
Yes. Every massage therapist assigned to a Denver event holds a current Colorado massage therapy license and carries individual liability insurance. For convention center events with exhibitor credentialing, healthcare campuses with compliance documentation requirements, and energy sector organizations with vendor approval processes, we provide full licensure documentation on request with no additional lead time needed.
For Colorado Convention Center conventions and major shows, six to eight weeks is the appropriate lead time. Large conventions draw exhibitor demand that competes for the same massage therapist pool simultaneously. For Gaylord Rockies events, four to six weeks. For Nurses Week at UCHealth and SCL Health, six to eight weeks. Two large healthcare networks competing for the same spring window creates the same compressed availability that Dayton and other multi-network healthcare markets experience. For standard office events, health fairs, and campus appreciation days in Denver, LoDo, Cherry Creek, and the suburbs, two to four weeks is typically sufficient. We confirm availability for your specific date within one business day of inquiry.
One massage therapist handles 15 to 20 people per hour at 10 to 15 minute sessions. For a Colorado Convention Center booth running continuous floor traffic across a full show day, two massage therapists manages peak hours without a stacking queue. For a Centennial energy campus appreciation day with 120 employees over three hours, two to three massage therapists covers the group. For a Gaylord Rockies conference session break with 80 attendees over 45 minutes, one massage therapist serves as a strong draw without creating an unmanageable queue. Give us the headcount, venue, and hours and we return a specific staffing recommendation with no commitment required.
Yes, and the participation data from Denver events reflects it. Denver's workforce has higher-than-average outdoor recreation participation, and employees who are physically active and recovery-aware tend to respond more strongly to a corporate wellness benefit that delivers an immediate, physical result. Chair massage in Denver corporate environments typically draws longer voluntary lines and generates stronger post-event feedback than similar programs in markets where physical wellness is less culturally central. For event planners evaluating whether chair massage is worth the investment, the most direct indicator is what happens after the first few people stand up from the chair.
Yes. LoDo is one of the most active Denver booking areas for technology companies, creative agencies, and professional services firms, the density of employers in a walkable area means coordination for building access and floor-plan logistics is more frequent there than in suburban locations, and we handle it without requiring direction from your facilities team. Cherry Creek serves primarily financial services and investment management firms with events that run from health fairs to client appreciation programs. Boulder and Broomfield along the US-36 corridor are served by the same coordinator and massage therapist network as Downtown Denver.
Yes. The Denver suburban corridor is an active part of our market bookings. Aurora is home to UCHealth facilities, the Gaylord Rockies, and a significant corporate employer base. Centennial hosts Arrow Electronics, energy sector campuses, and a dense suburban corporate park corridor. Englewood is the location of Dish Network's corporate campus and other technology employers. Lakewood serves primarily government agencies and professional services. All suburban locations are served by the same coordinator and massage therapist network as Downtown Denver, with the same flat hourly pricing and the same one-business-day response.
