Local Companies Land NFL Contracts

There shouldn’t be any sore backs at Super Bowl XLII – at least at the pregame tailgate party.

The Back Rub Co. received an NFL contract to provide its services during Super Bowl XLII. About 50 massage therapists, yoga and tai chi demonstrators will be on hand to treat VIP Tailgate Party attendees on Super Bowl Sunday.

The company learned of the contract opportunity through the Super Bowl’s Emerging Business Program, which provide procurement opportunities for Arizona’s minority and woman-owned businesses.

The Back Rub Co. offers on-site spa services and customized workplace wellness programs, including massage, workshops, fitness classes and nutrition seminars. It also offers in-home massage and massage at its clinics in Central Phoenix, South Phoenix, North Scottsdale, South Scottsdale, Mesa and Maricopa.
