Masaj, yumuşak dokulara uygulanan, organizma üzerine birden fazla tesiri bulunan manipülatif tekniklerdir. Masajın, özellikle lokomotor sistem ve kardiyovasküler sistem başta olmak üzere organizmayı oluşturan diğer sistemler üzerine de birden fazla fizyolojik, mekanik ve psikolojik tesirleri bulunmaktadır. Tekniğine uygun ve bilinçli uygulandığı takdirde istenilen sonuç elde edilebilir. Bilinmelidir ki bilinçsiz yapılan masaj birey sağlığını olumsuz etkileyecektir. Bu sebeple konusunda uzman, eğitimli, prensipli ve meslek etiğine uyan terapistler’e gereksinim vardır. Bu çalışmada, yönetim ve yönetici kavramlarına değinilerek, yönetim ile yöneticiliğin önemi ve yönetim süreci, yönetici tipleri, yönetici rolleri gibi konular üzerinde durulmuştur. Spa, Masaj, Yönetim ve Yöneticilik ile ilgili çalışmaları inceleyerek, tekniğe uygun şekilde yapmayı öğrenerek, gerekli olan bilgi, becerileri kazanacak ve bundan sonra yapılacak çalışmalara kaynak oluşturacaktır.
