The NOW Massage Fort Worth Alliance

TL;DR: Shelmon is hands-down the best massage therapist you’ll find at The NOW—or anywhere, really. Don’t hesitate, just book with him, and thank me later! I’ve been getting massages on and off for about 15 years, and Shelmon is, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever had. As a nursing mom to a 12-month-old, I’m running on broken sleep and a lot of stress—and frankly, I’m an anxious person. I’ve been a member at The NOW for about eight months and initially always requested female therapists. One day, only male therapists were available, and I reluctantly booked with Shelmon. That day changed everything. His professionalism and intuitive technique made me feel completely at ease. Since then, I’ve chosen him exclusively—five or six times now—and each session is incredible. If you’re on the fence, trust me—go see Shelmon. And to the management of The NOW: you’ve got an absolute gem.

I have been seeing stef for almost a year now, and I truly can’t say enough good things about her. She is incredibly sweet, caring, and detail-oriented, and every session feels thoughtfully tailored to exactly what my body needs that day. She communicates so well throughout the massage and always checks in to make sure pressure and focus areas are right. What really sets her apart is how she remembers the small details about my preferences and past sessions, even when it’s been weeks or a month since I’ve seen her — it makes every visit feel personal and intentional. Beyond her obvious skill and talent, she’s just a genuinely wonderful person who makes you feel comfortable and cared for the entire time. I always leave feeling better physically and mentally. I can’t recommend her enough and feel so lucky to have found her.

I previously came and didn’t have a bad experience but it wasn’t the best. I received a call back from the manager wanted to make it right at offering me another massage. I am truly not one to ever complain and I was only giving feedback not expecting anything in return. I even asked several times on the phone if they were sure, they didn’t have to do that for me but the staff insisted they wanted to give me a better experience. Even my check in experience was completely different and lovely! The sweet girl that was working even took time to talk to me about my day and was very personable. Jason was my massage therapist this visit today and let me just say I am so thankful not only for the generosity of the business but also the experience I had with Jason. He was very knowledgeable in his profession, technique and even sat with me for a minute after my massage to explain what he felt and what would be beneficial for after care to help my muscle issue. I want to say thank you to everyone in the company not only for your kindness and generosity but for the care I have received. Thank you

I genuinely can’t say enough good things about both Jason and Stefanie, they are incredible therapists in very different and equally valuable ways. Stefanie’s work is grounding, nurturing, and deeply effective. Her deep tissue provides immediate relief while still being firm and intentional. She pours into you in a way that feels supportive both physically and energetically, and every session with her leaves me feeling reset, cared for, and lighter in my body. She consistently delivers, and I trust her work completely. Jason’s work is something else entirely, in the best way. He practices true deep tissue at the edge of discomfort, staying with areas long enough to ensure real release is happening. During my session, he worked through scar tissue from a serious injury I endured years ago: tissue I didn’t even realize could regain sensation. The release was intense but intentional, and what followed felt almost rehabilitative. My body responded in ways I’ve never experienced before, and I’m now confident the work he did directly relieved chronic neck tension, headaches, and TMJ-related holding patterns I’ve carried for years. They each bring something unique and powerful. Stefanie is who I’d recommend for anyone seeking nurturing, grounding, and effective ache relief. Jason is who I’d recommend for anyone dealing with old injuries, scar tissue, chronic tension, or trauma stored in the body. Especially if you feel like you’ve “tried deep tissue” but never experienced true release. This place is incredibly lucky to have both of them.

Having been a member of The Now Massage for roughly 5 years, I’m always impressed with the talent they continue to acquire. My latest obsession of self care is seeing Shelmon. When I need a complete reset, 80 minutes of absolute relaxation, and every tense knot in my body gone, he’s the guy to do it. He’s 100% professional and a true master at his craft.
