"Do you ever sit in your office chair, your shoulders tightening, that familiar--and unwelcome--twinge starting in your upper back? ...or maybe it's your lower back that's the culprit...? Do you ever sit there on a conference call and imagine how great a massage would feel...?"

Imagine no more!

On June 28th, come join the Wharton Club of Northern California and develop your massage skills with David Palmer, one of the most extraordinary entrepreneurs in San Francisco. This commercial and cultural innovator has teamed up with a group of Wharton, Harvard, and Stanford grads to create what the national media is touting as the next Starbucks.

Register Online to reserve your spot at this exclusive event today! Note: attendance will be limited to Wharton Club members to ensure that everyone is able to enjoy a personal massage by the Zubio specialists.

Known as Zubio (www.zubio.com ), Palmer's innovative retail venture puts high-tech massage stations in local and easily-reached office buildings and shopping malls. Zubio's proprietary software allows people to sign up online for 10-minute or 20-minute seated massages--and then pop out of their offices for a quick, rejuvenating break. It's a perfect blend of high tech and high touch. Literally.

During this event, Palmer and his team will give you the inside scoop on their high-growth, socially-beneficial business model. Then Palmer will provide an hour of world-class massage training. You'll learn to identify key acupressure points on the neck and shoulders, where many people hold tension. You'll also learn to perform some very cool techniques to ease muscle tension and improve circulation. Rest assured that these skills will benefit you and your partner for the rest of your lives.

As if that weren't enough, Zubio specialists, all personally trained by David, will be on hand to provide complimentary massages. Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience chair massage direct from the source.

Plan now to join us for a great evening of: (1) a talk by the co-founders of an innovative startup that was featured this month on the Today Show; (2) an hour's massage training by an expert in the field; (3) a personal massage for each attendee by a Zubio specialist; (4) and of course, light appetizers and networking with other Wharton alumni at the before-event reception!

San Francisco, CA 94105

David Palmer
In 1986 he caused a major revolution within the bodywork industry after he invented a specialized chair for seated massage. In the subsequent 20 years he trained over 11,000 massage practitioners in the de facto technique for chair massage. As a result, chair massage is now found in offices, airports and other venues all over the globe.
