We are not a spa.

Welcome to Stress Less

college station / bryan

Massage is the oldest and most natural form of therapy; it is ingrained in our human nature. When we fell off our bikes as children, we did the same thing then that we do now as adults when we bang our knee or elbow - we grab the sore spot and rub it (along with a few choice expletives, of course).

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide effective, therapeutic massage treatments tailored for the everyday people of Bryan / College Station giving them long term relief.

Our vision

Our vision is to redefine massage therapy as a therapeutic necessity ensuring it's the first thought for everyday health, therapy and well-being.

  • "Sterling’s was highly recommended to me and I definitely received a 5+ star experience!! My therapist today was Randa and she truly was amazing!!! I went in with a pretty decent about of pain and Randa was able to not only educate me as to the reasons for the pain, ways to keep the pay away, and what not, but I walked out feeling so much better physically! Thank you so much Randa! I definitely will be back and I too highly recommend this company!!!"

    Amber Keefer

  • "Sterling asked why I came to them instead of other massage places, and I responded that out of everyone out there, y’all were available TODAY. Grateful there was an opening, I needed it!! If you have the chance to book with Austin, please do!! Don’t take my word for it, check em out 🙌"

    Lauren Holbert

  • "This place is amazing!!! I still can’t believe how I was able to move after my massage. I slept better than I have in months! The staff is super friendly and they answer questions you didn’t even know you had. Highly recommend."

    Leany Hammer

  • "I love this place. I have the membership so I go once every month and it has been great. Both Sterling and Austin seem like really great people and they are also really good at their jobs!"

    Scott Wigington

  • "Ms.randa was awesome for my my 1st time being! 10/10 !!! You won’t regret it 😎"

    Edgar Saenz

  • "Have had many massages over the years; and I have to say that Sterling's technique on my neck and shoulders (where I keep my stress ... of which there is a lot) was the best I have experienced. There is no better way to take care of yourself than a massage. So check him out. You won't be disappointed."

    Diane Davis

  • "I received a therapeutic massage from Randa at Sterling Therapeutic Massage at the Bryan location. I went in with a shoulder issue, and Randa used a great technique to get it moving again. I received the 90 minute, and she was able to identify and treat several issues. The entire process was very easy, from the online scheduling to check out. The facility is very clean and relaxing. This is not a spa, but definitely a place to come get treated and correct problem areas. They offer memberships, and I was so impressed I bought one."

    Michelle Perry

  • "I set my appointment and got the regular intake form to fill out. When I did, I vaguely mentioned the reason I wanted to visit. Upon arrival Randa inquired about the "issue" and told me what she wanted to do to try and help. It was definitely NOT a routine session, as she tailored my appointment needs and worked on the area I had mentioned in the intake form. ALL the more reason I go to them, because they personalize the experience to the needs of the client. As they say ... They are NOT a spa. They are very client centered. 5 STARS every time."

    Tony Leftwich

  • "I had a massage with Randa two days ago, and the experience was fantastic all around. Great atmosphere, amazing massage that helped take my pain levels down so much, and a welcoming office. Will definitely be back, thank you so much!"

Wouldn't you just know it?

Someone told Sterling that he didn't have enough information on the front page and it was messing up the Search Engine Optimization for Google.

So, here's all the information he could think of in a non-fancy way so Google could read it.

Now, we also have to say the words " massage therapy " alot. Not to mention the words " therapeutic " and " Bryan " and " College Station ".

So, in case that wasn't clear, he decided to repeat it again.

Now, we also have to say the words " massage therapy " alot. Not to mention the words " therapeutic " and " Bryan " and " College Station ".

He's well aware that it's grammatically incorrect to put the "." after the quotes in the last two sentences. He just didn't want the algorithm to misunderstand he was talking about therapeutic massage therapy in Bryan and College Station in Texas.

Hehe, he got it in there a 3rd time.

Also, he wants to make sure people know this is an LGBT Safe Space / Safe Touch business. That means anyone and everyone is welcome here. We make every attempt to bring comfort and confidence to each and every client. Each individual is treated with respect.

By the way, yes, he is also aware that he is the one typing this and it is coming across in the 3rd person. He thought it would sound better for the website itself to tell you what he's thinking.

Now, if you actually read all that, please come get a massage and tell Sterling that you did, indeed, read this. You won't get anything, but it will give Sterling a boost of serotonin and he will smile and thank you for taking the time to tell him.
