NorthStar Massage Therapy and Wellness Center is now open in New Braunfels, offering a range of massage therapy services and wellness options to the community.

The details

Joey Applebaum and her husband, Arik Schoessow, are co-owners, bringing 10 years of experience in massage therapy to the New Braunfels area, Applebaum said.

"We just fell in love with this town ... everything from the people to the rivers,” Applebaum said. “We decided this is where we wanted to make our home and to raise our family, and started our business here.”

The massage spa offers various services, including relaxation, deep tissue massage, trigger point work and sports massages, aromatherapy, and facilitated stretching sessions, Applebaum said.


The spa offers add-ons such as hot stone therapy, essential oils, percussion massage and Biofreeze gel—all at no extra charge, Applebaum said.

“We are trying to create a hassle-free environment where you can try any new [service] you want, add anything to your massage with no extra cost,” Applebaum said.
