Massage Envy Spa - Foothills

Amazing!

by testtubewaltz at Citysearch

I received a massage at Massage Envy. I'm a massage therapy student myself, so I know some of what to look for, and what to avoid.

I was VERY impressed with my experience at massage envy. I don't know who the other users have had for their massages, and I realize that the experience with each massage therapist will be different, but I was FLOORED by my therapist. Espy (nickname only, for the therapists' privacy) was AMAZING, professional, and is EXTREMELY GOOD at therapeutic massage. She delivers a calm, measured massage - expert deep tissue work that doesn't HURT or feel like she's rearranging your skeleton. She sent me home with "homework", of sorts - a self-care regiment and some exercises to help keep my body from hurting me, and vice versa.

The clinic/spa... it's pretty nice. They certainly aren't cutting corners and costs on client care - the tables are comfortable, the linens are top-notch, the environment is as nice as you'd expect for an upscale spa. Free cup-o-tea, plush everything, etc.

If you had a bad experience, don't write off the clinic. Ask for a manager, explain what happened, and book an appointment with somebody else.

I don't work for the company, and although my review may sound like a shill, it's not. I'm not good enough to work for them (yet).

The first visit is $39 (as of 12/2009), if you ask for the new client special.

If you can afford the montly membership fee, it includes a free massage every month. Their prices for members are pretty reasonable, for non-members, they're about $10 over the going market price, but they're probably worth it, if you have a few bucks rattling around in your pocket.

• Pros: Excellent, seasoned therapists, introductory price, etc.
• Cons: Subscription-oriented business model

Not good

by JudyAG at Citysearch

I get spa services about once every three months but I was hoping to economize. I was hoping to stop spending $60 to $70 at other places around town. I tried Massage Envy but do not plan to go back. My masseuse was right out of school and she was not very good. I like deep tissue massages but she just was not strong enough. I guess she will improve over time but I do not want people practicing on me.

• Pros: Cheap
• Cons: Mediocre Quality at best

Exceptional Service to thoes who Serve

by MathewS at Citysearch

I am not one who enjoys getting pampered, so when a friend of mine tried to talking me into getting a massage, I was a little sceptical. "Wow, not what I expected" was all I could say, in a good way! The staff were polite and efficient, the masuse was prompt and helpfull, but the massage was the best part. Instead of just feeling like a rub down, I was contentfully pressed and pulled till it hurt good. The next day I felt like a new man. All the tension in my shoulders and pain in my neck was gone (just a little soreness). Worth every penny (especially on a military budget)!

• Pros: Military Discount, Flexible Scheduling, Courteous Staff
• Cons: Wish there was a closer location

Amazing!

I had an amazing massage for a very affordable price. Everyone was very professional and friendly. I have a tight schedule, and they are really great about if I have to cancel or change my appointments. I have never had a bad massage from any of the therapists. I have no complaints about any of the services I have received. In fact, all I have are testamonies of how much better I feel after each experience I've had at Massage Envy.

Great Massage for a good price

by Provbs124 at Citysearch

I was so impressed at the professionalism with Massage Envy. I was greeted with smiles and felt very well taken care of the moment I walked in the door. I had never been to a place like this so I was alittle nervous but the girls at the desk made sure to answer my questions and even showed me around the place before my service started. My therapist greeted me in the same manner. I saw Elena for an hour session I was in heaven. I felt like a million bucks afterwards the best part was I didn't have to pay a million bucks to feel that way. Massage Envy is a place where all walks could come in a get the treatment they not only deserve but many need without having to pay crazy prices like the rest of the Spas in the area. They sold me and I will be back on a monthly bacis. Thank you Massage Envy and Elena for making my day!!!!!

• Pros: Everyone can afford the treatment they need.
