The thing is that people are looking for a solution to their problem.  They most likely do not care about any of these things nor do they really understand what any of these things mean.  Just providing lists of things that massage does or doesn't do - doesn't engage the reader or challenge the reader or tell them what it can do for them (for the most part.)

This is not educating the client.  What clients need to know are all of the things you learned in massage school about stress and how it affects the muscles and the body, how health is influenced by our thoughts, how feeling their bodies can help unlock many emotional/mental/spiritual challenges, how the body and mind are interconnected.

Providing more information to clients through a website will help you build your practice faster and keep you booked solid for months to come.
