The keyword list
Pick the groups that match your services. Every keyword below can become a page, an article or an FAQ entry on your site.
Core service keywords
The services you sell, named the way customers name them. Give each one its own page on your site — one page per service beats one page that lists them all.
- massage near me
- massage therapist
- deep tissue massage
- prenatal massage
- sports massage
- couples massage
“Near me” and town keywords
Local searches add a place or “near me”. Swap [city] for every town and neighborhood you serve, name those places on the matching service page and keep your Google Business Profile complete — that is what “near me” draws on.
- massage [city]
- massage therapist near me
- massage therapist [city]
- deep tissue massage near me
- deep tissue massage [city]
- prenatal massage near me
- prenatal massage [city]
- sports massage near me
- sports massage [city]
- couples massage near me
- couples massage [city]
Problem and symptom searches
Before people know what to hire, they type the problem. Write an article that names it in their words, explains it in yours and links to the service page.
- knot in my shoulder that won’t go awayYou call it: Myofascial trigger point
- massage that helps with swellingYou call it: Manual lymphatic drainage
- massage with hot rocksYou call it: Hot stone massage
- sore the day after a deep massageYou call it: Post-massage soreness (DOMS-like)
- massage while pregnantYou call it: Side-lying prenatal positioning
Questions customers ask
Each question is a ready-made article or FAQ entry. Answer it plainly in the first two sentences, then go deeper — that is the part Google likes to quote.
- how hard should a massage bePressure check-ins during the session
- is it normal to be sore after a massage
- what to wear to a massage
- can i use hsa for massageYear-end
Research and comparison searches
Searches made while choosing. Comparisons and “how to choose” guides reach people before they call anyone — end each one with how you do it.
- deep tissue vs swedish massage
- sports massage before a race

These come back at the same time every year. Publish the matching page weeks before the season, so it is already found when people start searching.

hello@striderank.comWhat are the best keywords for massage therapy?
Start with the searches that name your service plus your town or “near me” — for example “massage near me near me” or “massage therapist [city]”. People typing those want to hire now. Then add problem searches and questions as articles that lead to those service pages.
Why are there no search volumes on this page?
Because they differ from town to town, and we don’t guess numbers. Pick your city in the free tool on this page and it shows the ranges from Google Ads data for that place.
How many keywords should one page target?
One main keyword per page, plus its close variations. A page for each service and each town you serve does more than one long page that lists everything.
How do I use these keywords on my massage therapy website?
Put the main keyword in the page title, the first heading and the first paragraph, and use the customer’s own words in the text. Questions work best as their own articles or as FAQ entries. Link each article to the matching service page.
