If you are a massage therapist traveling to San Antonio, or if you are a client in town just for us (hey – it has happened! We have been a purposely-planned pit-stop and destination massage for some Ashiatsu fanatics in the past!!) read about our favorite hotels and lodging ideas below.

Coffee: (which is the 2nd most important thing besides a bed to crash on!)

  • Theory Coffee: they are our lifesource. You’ll find this rad food truck on the corner of Nacogdoches and I-410 about 5 miles from our studio. The coffee is so good you’ll find yourself licking the cup once you are done! He’s usually open e-a-r-l-y in the wee hours of the morning until about 2pm on weekdays and Saturdays… unless he wants to go home early. So grab a cup! (And bring me one, too! Iced Caramel Latte!!)
  • There’s a donut shop across the street with auto-made “latte’s” that will do if you aren’t a coffee snob like Jeni, lol. McDonalds is a mile away, and another cute local drive-thru business about 2 miles away is Mudslingers. We still think Theory is worth the drive if you want the good stuff!
