About Us/Philosophy

The groundwork to open St.Pierre Center for Massage was set in motion years before the doors opened. Years earlier Michelle St.Pierre and her father Rick St.Pierre embarked on another project together which ended when Michelle received a college scholarship as a softball pitcher. Then in August 2005 when Michelle approached her dad Rick to be her partner for this Napa Spa startup they knew they could count on each other to make St.Pierres’ Napa’s quality day spa. Now, four years later they are providing many high quality, therapeutic and pampering massages and spa treatments each year to Napa locals and other Napa visitors.

Rick St.Pierre is an accomplished International businessman with a history of success in both his professional and his personal life. His approach to business is grounded in ethics, solid strategic planning, and exceptional customer satisfaction.

Michelle St.Pierre was awarded a pitching scholarship to attend St.Mary’s College for softball and graduated with a degree in Business Administration in 1998. After working as a professional sales person, she attended and graduated from California School of Herbal Studies and then the New York Institute of Massage. After completing her studies and an internship at a local Napa spa, Michelle made self care through massage a focus of her life.

Combining Michelle’s interest in alternative medicine with Rick’s business background they developed the upscale concept of St.Pierre Center for Massage, Inc. and in April of 2006 opened the wellness oriented massage center.

The calming interior of the St.Pierre Center was designed by Evelyn St.Pierre, wife of Rick. Evelyn is passionate about her belief that carefully chosen design elements goes further to creating pleasing environments than does expensive furnishings.

Evelyn expressed her vision of a tranquil environment at St.Pierres through her selection of dark cocoa colored walls, shades of green, simple furnishings, organic textures and fountains helping to create a soothing environment in unison with nature. The art work through out St.Pierres was conceived and fashioned by Evelyn, and consists of hand painted linen wall hangings, framed pieces of nature including leaves, branches and sprigs of field grass.

At St.Pierres’, the 4-Seasons standard of customer care is the interest of Steve Kline, Michelle’s husband. A local business man, Steve is also the owner/operator of Buena Tierra Vineyards’, a consulting and contracting concern located for many years in the Napa Valley.

Steve says his passion is “to see each customer leave St.Pierres’ happy to be treated like this is their place”. Supporting Michelle and Dugan their son is Steve’s “number one priority”. After that Steve’s business interests take center stage.

Rick and Michelle look forward to continuing to offer high quality treatments to people who live in and visit the Napa Valley for years to come. St.Pierres’ offers therapeutic and pampering massage, detoxifying healthful full body treatments, cleansing and pampering facials and therapeutic soothing reflexology.
