Fox Studio40 Live

We stopped by Fox Studio40 Live to announce Zeel’s arrival in Sacramento. Zeel Massages can now be delivered to the homes of over 90% of the California population, in as little as an hour. You have the option to book up to 30 days in advance, and even sign up for a Zeel Massage Membership if you’re someone who enjoys regular (and discounted) monthly massages.

Good Day Sacramento

Good Day Sacramento was kind enough to feature Zeel in celebration of our launch in Sacramento, and walk through the Zeel Massage mobile app. Want an in-home massage, but don’t want to plan ahead? Zeel Massages can be booked same-day with as little as an hour’s notice. Simply open the app, choose your favorite massage technique (Swedish, deep tissue, sports massage, prenatal, Sleep Massage, or a special occasion couples massage), the time and location of your session, and the gender of your therapist — and let us handle the rest. With the Sacramento expansion, Zeel is proud to now serve over 90% of the California population with on-demand in-home massages — not to mention, over 65 other major cities and surrounding areas across the US.

Already operating in more than 65 other U.S. markets, the mobile-massage business Zeel will start offering many Sacramento-area residents on June 26 the opportunity to get a massage in their homes within an hour of an online booking. Despite Zeel’s size, news of its impending arrival didn’t faze veteran massage therapist Elizabeth Phan, whose Perfect Touch business offers services from Galt to Roseville. In fact, Phan said, she expects Zeel will raise the visibility of the mobile massage industry and expand the number of customers seeking services. Phan said she still gets calls from people who don’t know that many independent massage therapists make house calls. Chelle Bradley, a 20-year veteran of the local massage industry, has done mobile massage in the past but now runs the Massage Heights center in Folsom. She’s also not concerned about the market’s new entrant. “With this industry, there’s always going to be competition,” she said. “With the mobile massage, there are people who don’t want to go to the centers, they feel more comfortable in their homes. I don’t think that it’s going to deter anyone from coming to us. I think it will give a new avenue to people who really need to get massages.” Phan could apply to work through Zeel because the company contracts with local massage therapists to offer its suite of services, but she said her schedule already is often booked a week or two in advance. However, Phan’s former instructor, Madonna Polley of Fair Oaks Massage Institute, thinks a number of massage therapists will want to work through Zeel. “I have former students of mine with them (in other cities),” Polley said. “They like it, and some of them have worked through them a long time. I think it’s great for both the clients and the students. I get a lot of calls from people who are bedridden or housebound or they have busy families. People want massage right at their house.” Land Park resident Bob Waste agreed to test-drive Zeel’s service for The Bee. He has been home recovering from surgery but plans to return to work this week. He described his Zeel massage as one of the best he’d ever had. The massage, he said, really helped to reduce some pain he’d been experiencing. The massage therapist did a combination of relaxing Swedish technique, along with some therapeutic deep-tissue work. Because of the nature of his surgery, he said, she had him lie down on his back or his sides as she worked. “It was more convenient for me to have it in the house and not have one more trip, with all that I’ve got going on,” Waste said. “It was interesting that they offered a choice between a male or a female massage therapist. I’m sure people have different comfort levels with that.” After sampling the Zeel service, Waste said, he went to his mobile phone and downloaded the app because he figured he would use the service again. Customers book either through the mobile app or at zeel.com. About half of Zeel’s business comes from repeat customers. To use the Zeel service, customers must provide a government-issued identification. Zeel does this to ensure the safety of therapists, and it also processes all payments. For customer security, the company contracts with only experienced, licensed and insured massage therapists. When an appointment is booked, Zeel sends the customer a message with the therapist’s name, license number and photo. The company will be offering its service in parts of Placer, Sacramento and Yolo counties. Bee readers in its service area can use the code BEE25 for $25 off their first Zeel massage when service begins Monday. Zeel regularly charges $105 an hour, but that includes an 18 percent gratuity. Cynthia Irons, Zeel’s chief marketing officer, said the company surveys the spas in each market to determine its pricing. Zeel contracts with massage therapists who get four- or five-star ratings from their customers, she said, and the Zeel hour is truly 60 minutes, not the 50 that many spas provide. Phan, however, charges her monthly customers $75 for a 60-minute massage. A gratuity is not included. Phan said she is interested to see how Zeel’s pricing goes over with Sacramento-area customers.

The worst part about L.A. is—surprise—the traffic, so I use Zeel "massage on demand" when I’m in town. I recently went to a trade show and was on my feet for 16 hours straight, so I had arranged for a masseuse to come to my friend's house, where I was staying. It was incredible to have a massage outside in the backyard and actually smell the grass—an unheard-of luxury in New York.

"Vibration, gentle pressure, and mild heat are conducive to stress relief," says Eva Carey, a massage therapist and national community director of on-demand massage company Zeel. "The scalp holds a lot of tension–even a 10-minute massage can soothe a headache, better your mood, and boost energy." "Foot massage can reduce pain and swelling, especially if you stand all day," says Carey. "The heat works to soften muscle tissue, making the massage more effective."

Zeel Networks Inc., an on-demand massage provider, has closed $10 million of a $12 million Series A round. The funding comes as the service, which is available in 20 cities, is slated to expand into three more areas. Zeel plans to launch in Phoenix, Austin and Seattle on Monday. Emil Capital Partners led the round, which has participation from Slow Ventures, Partech Ventures, New Atlantic Ventures and Spafinder. The company didn’t disclose its valuation but has raised $15 million to date. Zeel took a circuitous path to its on-demand massages business. When the company first launched in 2010, its founders envisioned it would be a service like ZocDoc but for alternative medicine. Instead the team quickly noticed half the bookings the company received were for massages. They also observed that more than 50 % of the 25,000 bookings they received were for massages in the next four hours. As the team pivoted into on-demand massages, it moved to address concerns of customers and practitioners. The company also thought it could get the best therapists if it could provide them a feeling of security. The app requires customers to prove their true identity using a social security number or a scan of a government-issued ID. Zeel Chief Executive Samer Hamadeh said this discourages bad behavior among clients. “The whole industry was screaming for a service to do this,” Mr. Hamadeh said. Unlike other on-demand services, the Zeel app also lets customers know how much of the amount they paid actually goes to the therapist. Mr. Hamadeh said this encourages customer loyalty because they know the therapists are paid well on the platform. Zeel is one of several companies that have realized there is a large market for on-demand massages in the home. Mr. Hamadeh said he knows of at least a dozen startups in the category. Soothe Inc. raised $35 million in Series B funding earlier this month. Soothe also acquired competitor Unwind Me in the fall. Correction: A previous version of this article said Zeel raised $11.5 million to date. The company has raised $15 million to date.
