Love Love Love this place! Every therapist is fantastic and the front desk staff is lovely! My wife gets her facials and massages here. One of her preferred deep tissue therapists is Jeffrey and she speaks so highly of him-but there are many fantastic options. Sonora and Amy are amazing for those who like a firm pressure and relaxing massage. My wife has been going for years and I have been going for almost a year now. A monthly massage is a must and there is a therapist for every preference!

Wonderful facial experience with Sonora! It is so relaxing. If you’ve never had a facial before, I recommend trying it out at Massage Envy in Chester. My skin was refreshed and radiant.

I highly recommend Sean! I went in with a really tight lower back and aching body and came out feeling refreshed and relaxed. He is so personable too and really upbeat. Really liked him and highly recommend him if you want an awesome massage with firm pressure.

I had an amazing massage with Steve, I highly recommend him. My daughter treated me to Massage Envy in Chester for the second time as a Mother’s Day gift. I returned due to the amazing massage I received the first time with Steve. This location is clean which is really important to me. While the location is beautiful and the massage was awesome unfortunately one of the young ladies at the front desk was rude and unprofessional which made me feel uncomfortable. I was looking forward to booking my next massage at check out but didn’t due to my experience with the front desk representative.

I have been going to Sean R. for years and he truly is the best masseuse around. He applies the perfect pressure, checks in and gets every knot out. I always feel like a million bucks after a session with him. 10/10 reccomend!

I’ve worked with Sean a few times and experience has been great. I tend to suffer with pretty significant muscle tension and joint pain and Sean always has a great technique to help relieve the tension and ease the pain. Definitely one of the best I’ve ever had!

So relaxing and wonderful - a great experience as a new mom who needed some TLC! My masseuse, Sean, did a fantastic job focusing on the areas that required extra attention and adjusted according to what my body needed.

Won’t go back. My “1hr deep tissue” massage was 45 minutes. The therapist started 10 min after the hour and five minutes early. The massage itself wasn’t great at all. My therapist spent probably 15 minutes on my back of which I felt nothing and most of the time sitting on a chair massaging my face and neck while I was face up even after I asked him to focus on my low/mid back. He pushed a special lotion in the begging of the session then told me it was an additional upcharge on top of the $155 for the massage. They push you for memberships at the end which is quite annoying. Don’t waste your time.

Terrible customer service. This location LIED to me and said I could cancel my membership. They promoted the discount for signing up and explicitly told me I had options to cancel. This is not true! The only option is to Freeze the account once youre locked in for a membership and extend the payments. Im locked in for their price which is more expensive than other franchises for 12 months. Lesson learned to read the fine print. I dont appreciate the representative misleading me like that.

Steven is THE BEST. He listenes when you tell him where to work , he is proficient and professional. I will request him until membership expires . I often enjoy getting a massage as I’m a tense new mom! The massage artists are excellent as I have never had a bad experience, but the front desk staff is sketchy. I was tricked and scammed by them openly… that’s the ONLY reason I will NOT reupy membership; I understand the business of sales , but to openly rob someone and not let them know until after a 90 min mass; when I’m the most relaxed and comfortable; they let me know my membership only covers a 60 minute massage, the guy booked me for a 90 min massage NOT telling me it would be extra ….that’s not ok. That’s wrong . They should be OPEN AND CLEAR . It’s not ok. Fix the issue and you’ll have life long customers.

Review №23

Wonderful, helpful, cheerful staff that always checks me in and out fast even when I’m running a few minutes late. I haven’t used many other therapists there (but was a client at a previous massage envy) but Steven F. Is by far one of the best massage therapists I have ever had. He’s professional and attentive to my needs. I requested firm pressure which he delivered and was slow and methodical in the tighter spots in my lower back. Since I told him my lower back was my problem area he worked on just my back the whole time. I will 100% be a returning client of his.

The massage and atmosphere were great! When I went to check out, they said I owe $15 more because the massage envy that bills me charges less than they do. I said OK and didn’t think much of it until I got home. I checked the website for Chester and their fees are listed as the same as what I’m billed for. So I was essentially charged $15 more for nothing. That’s my only complaint and because of that, unfortunately, I would not go back because a 90 minute massage fee plus tip plus the extra $15 really adds up.

Review №32

My massage was relaxing but it was not what I paid for or what I asked for. First, I paid for a 60 minute massage. My masseuse came out late to get me and I was at the register paying before the hour was even up. I did not get a 60 minute massage. Additionally, I asked that the focus be on my back and legs. While she did work out a knot on my lower back, my upper back was completely neglected

Steven is amazing! I was having severe back pain associated with herniated discs and an extremely physical job. I booked a massage as a last resort after months of suffering and no success from seeing doctors. I explained my goals to Steven and he did exactly what I requested and needed - he found problems, focused on them, used the right pressure and overall has a pleasant demeanor. I woke up the next morning with no pain for the first time in a long time. I look forward to regular visits now to keep my back in good shape. Go see him!

I always leave there feeling like a new person and immediately schedule my next appointment -she books up fast!

Review №46

They do not even get 1 star.. had to pick one for the truth to be posted about this embarrassment to even be in Chester, NJ.I have been a recruiter for C level positions and manage a sales team and if anyone of my team members spoke to a paying customer the way Emily and Regina did from Massage Therapy in Chester NJ.. they would be let go on the spot.The absolute worst.We had to cancel an appointment (which was replied to upon the confirmation text).The following message was that I was going to be charged.I called to try and fix this and this is what happened:Emily hung up on me AFTER asking why I was canceling and my response was really non of your business, however, I did share that it was a hospital matter and she asked me for a note! I laughed.. really!?Regina (I believe to the the supervisors name (I will find out and re-post) took my next call and had the professional (NOT) audacity to insult me with a bee quote. Not even worth sharing the pathetic message.Wow. I thought I was on candid camera!So unprofessional.Not to mention, I have been a member with Massage Envy for years, i live in Chester, NJ and Chester this location is my last resort:Pushy and annoying sales (take a lesson ladies)Scale from 1-10 on the services provided (4)Customer Service, well, obviously a ZEROGo elsewhere for what you are paying for.You deserve a relaxing environment and a wonderful experience.

Review №53

Steven did an outstanding job! Pressure and technique were excellent. After a month of working on home renovations, the massage helped greatly. The down side is the unknown price increase that was never relayed to me until I was checking out. As a member with a monthly package, the cost went up $22 per 90 mins according to my receipt. That price is a bit ridiculous and will probably end my membership with this provider.

Review №54

I received a microderm infusion (facial) on Friday March 17th, and was told it was a very hydrating treatment and my face would not even be red after so I was really looking forward to it. I was advised to come back every 2-3 weeks and was told if I purchased the session 3 pack I would be able to save a significant amount on them as well, so I had purchased them. After getting into my car and driving 40 minutes home I developed hives around my eyes, neck and face. The reaction was so severe I was put on an oral steroid for a week and one week later my face is still bright red and peeling. I had called massage envy and spoken to Renee to advise her of my reaction. I requested a refund for the upcoming 3 appointments as my doctors advised me not to return. She questioned how I knew the reaction was from the facial and said there was nothing she could do. Please note I was not requesting a refund for the services that were done, only for the upcoming services that I could no longer attend. After emailing Renee proof of my reaction she said she would speak to her district manager and could have the three pack transferred to someone else (when I paid for them) . It’s hard for me to understand why massage envy won’t grant me a refund for services I did not and won’t receive. I would recommend going to a place that actually values their customers rather than questioning them. Stay away unless you want your face to look like mine.

I enjoyed every minute of it if the facial. Angela was super! She did a wonderful job. I am encouraged by her job performance and will continue to treat myself and encourage others. She took my mind faraway and I could think of all the wonderful things that life has to offer. I felt no discomfort and I am very pleased. If everyone is ardent like her, the workplaces would be flourishing..

Steven was a great massage therapist.I have a HUGE problem with the up charge extracted because I can’t move my membership from elsewhere & want to use my local store. I was NEVER charged before (over 6 years) and was not told that this would happen when I booked.I have been a’member’ for about 15 years and can’t wait to use up all of my stacked massages to get away from this!!

Angela at Massage Envy, Chester, NJ … gave me a “peel” facial… I could see results as soon as she was done… pigmentation less noticeable, texture smoother and skin was hydrated. I have mature skin that seems dehydrated at times…. She came highly recommended to me and listened when I explained my skin care problems. I have had peels over the years and I must say this one ranks in the top! Overall, a very pleasant experience. The staff polite and friendly and welcoming.I will be back!

Both my wife and I came for a couples massage. We were greeted immediately in a friendly and professional manner from the women at the front desk. We then were escorted to the couple’s massage room. The massage therapists introduced themselves and asked if we had any problem areas we’d like addressed. We both received excellent massages.Both my wife and I observed the facilities are immaculate. Lastly, we paid and were asked if we were happy with the service. We were and will return soon.

I worked with Justin and was in a great deal of pain. My chiropractor was unable to manipulate my spine because my muscles were so tight. After a 90 minute session, I was pain free.

Review №68

Justin was great! Knowledgeable, helpful, & kind. He’s a good enough reason to return. However…..(and this is no reflection on him whatsoever)……When I booked this appointment, I was given a price for a foot reflexology for one hour would be $75.00. The actual service was about 45 minutes. When I checked out I was given the price of $120. Huh??? It was at this time and at this time only that I was told about the monthly deal of committing to a year at a time to receive that price of $75. Thankfully they did extend the cost they gave me anyway, as they should.Extremely disappointing & frankly quite confusing. And the front desk clerk continued to push. I went to being 99% sure of returning to not planning on returning at all. I’ll miss Justin!Sorry M.E. Next client, be upfront & don’t push to the point of pushing away.

I came in the other day just looking for some information, and within 2 minutes I had a massage booked. Denise came out right away and greeted me with a smile. She walked me to the room and asked a few questions regarding history. I added on an aromatherapy enhancement (rosemary/peppermint) and LOVED it. I did full body, and Denise was FABULOUS. I had never been for a massage before, but she did such a great job. She made sure pressure was okay, and I was comfortable. After I was done I knew right away I wanted a membership, so now I will be coming monthly for a facial and or massage. Definitely recommend Denise :)

Tara is wonderful. She really listens to me and works on the areas that I think require the most attention.

I have been going to this location for one year. I was told my regular therapist was out and asked if I would like to have a session with Kai instead.

I loved my massage, Mt person was fabulous! This was my second? time going to him . BUT I WILL NOT be going back. Because my membership is in another location (also within NJ) they charged me another$16.00. If this is their policy I should have been told this when I scheduled. BE AWARE and ask if your membership is not where you are getting a massage is there additional fees? Im so angry with them I may cancel the entire thing

Review №80

I am typically not a “chain-salon” consumer but had received a gift card for Massage Envy. Steven at the Chester location was fantastic! I am used to getting firm or deep-tissue massages regularly and needed someone to work out some tight, tension areas. Steven was able to identify and target areas of built up stress and knots and work them out. You can tell that he is an experienced massage therapist. He wasnt just running through the motions of a typical massage, rather he customized his techniques as he went along to focus on the areas that needed the most attention. I wish I had booked 90 minutes with him. As long as I can book with Steven, I’ll be back.

Ive been going to this massage envy for a few months now due to some serious knots in my back and calves. I have seen Steven (the younger one) each time and he has been fantastic for me. He uses great firm pressure and he listens to my needs and meets them. I dont feel uncomfortable asking him for more or less pressure or to hit a certain spot. If youre trying out this spot for the first time and you have some serious knots that need working out, see Steven.

Went in for massage specifically wrote on intake that my main points were neck and shoulders, when I went in room again said neck and shoulders and you can do rest of body but that was the focal point. I got a full body with 10 minutes on each leg so 20 to 25 minutes on legs and 10 minutes on neck and shoulders, then told come back in 2 weeks for neck and shoulders because they are tight. Not too happy she was very nice but not listening to my needs

As so many others have stated, Steven is fantastic! I had a tight muscle in my leg, he focused on that, got out additional knots and doesnt just give the same basic massage that you find at so many chains, he actually listens and works on any problem areas. I would definitely ask for him again.

Review №91

The massage was great. However the customer service is completely inept and unethical. I was the LAST customer of the day and left an extremely sentimental necklace on the ottoman. I called at 1030 am the next morning, 30 minutes after they opened. This means that the only people with access to the room were Massage Envy employees, contractors, and at most, 1 customer. Additionally, if rooms are cleaned to minimmal standards between clients, the necklace was sure to be found. And yet 6 hours and 2 different managers (Renae and Emily) later, they dont know what to say and cameras would have seen me wearing it. Oh and the kicker was Emily telling me there wasnt anything else she could do since she didnt work yesterday. There is a sign in the lobby that indicates the owner name and a number to contact. I asked the manager to give me that information and she couldnt. Laughable. So now Im left to file a police report. Beware.

I used to have wonderful experience in massage Envy in Rockaway location. Unfortunately this changed with a new management to the point I wanted to terminate my contract. I’m glad I gave it a chance in a Chester location ( which is not most convenient for me) where I found May. This therapist is a best therapist I’ve ever had! Very intuitive, and professional . If you like deep tissue massage like I do, you should schedule it with May.

S
Review №94

I only gave 2 🌟 because of May! She is great though you need to speak briefly and simply (she knows little English) and also understand that she her goal is THERAPEUTIC massage. Its not comfortable, but it works out tightness and problem spots and I felt such relief and pain reduction for days after! My issue is with the front office staff. The whole place is run like a hardcourt press to get you to sign up for monthly massages. They dont listen when you tell them that thats not in your budget. Then they put you on their text list and send you offers. When I called in to take advantage of an offer, I was flat-out lied to on the phone. I asked twice and then re-confirmed before hanging up that the offer would be honored in my situation and was told yes. At checkout, I was asked to come into the back to talk. I was confused thought she wanted to do a survey or something, but had to run. I ended up being charged full price plus tax and had several embarrassing minutes in the middle of the desk area trying to explain the mix-up. As I walked out - with all released tension returned - I realized that theyre was no mix-up. The small girl with the stringy blond hair had asked me into the back room because she knew from the get-go that I was going to be upset. So either a note was left about our phone discussion or it was the same girl who promised on the phone that I was going to pay $75. I ended up spending over $150. And dont get me wrong. Its not that May isnt worth that - its not a matter of value at all, but of my personal budget... and honor and integrity! I dont spend like that and would never have gone if I knew it would cost that much, but the real issue is honor. I told her flat out that she was being dishonorable. She said, well you could get that price if you signed up for the monthly program. Seriously? Back to the hard court press?! One has nothing to do with the other! She lied, and knowing it, tried to deal with me quietly in the back room after the fact! Not cool. Not going back. Do NOT recommend!

Review №96

Do NOT go to any of the Massage Envy locations owned by the Patel’s. They violate Massage Envy’s company policy and up charge the monthly membership rate if purchased elsewhere. I’ve spoken to and received information from other management and the regional director and was told that it was in direct violation of company policy to do this. When I attempted to reach the owner the line went straight to voicemail. It’s really shady business tactics. Go to any location not owned by the Patel’s.

Amazing place to go for a great massage! I called and was able to get a same dayappointments. The staff asked a lot of questions to pair me with the best therapist. My massage was the best, hands down. The staff was super nice. Ill definitely be returning and recommending my friends go here too!

I go there for facials for almost 4years and have always been greeted with care. I had the pleasure to be served by several aesthetics; all of them are very nice and pleasant. After my facial, I come back with a smiley face. Thanks for their great assistance.

This place will try and take you for all the $$ they can without remorse. One massage, which was a birthday present from a friend, turned into over 500$ of charges and no additional Massages or services.As soon as my massage ended, a sales associate tried to push a membership on my friend & and I. After saying no they continued to push & pressure us into a membership. I never went back after that. I called & cancelled my membership and was told my membership was cancelled by there staff.There were no charges for months, until I saw a 200$ massage envy charge to my account. I assumed it was a mistake so I called them. I spoke to a couple employees, explained my situation & they said that this was not right and to call back when there manager was in. After multiple calls I was finally able to speak to the manager. The manager was quick to cut me off & reply with Theres nothing we can do to every question.I would avoid this particular Massage center at all costs.

Steven F is a consummate professional and a skilled and conscientious massage therapist. He listens to me when I tell him what is tight and/or painful on my body and adjusts his massage therapy accordingly.

Came in for my first time for a sports massage (got the 60 minute probably should of went with the 90) and the massage was great. The staff was friendly and super helpful. At the end of my massage, they offered me membership into their monthly program where you get discounted massages (contract for a year). At the time, it seemed like a good idea but after much though I personally didnt see the value.I called the next day and the staff was super helpful in helping me get out of the contract and I truly appreciate it. IF YOU LIVE IN THE AREA THIS IS THE PLACE T0 GO FOR MASSAGES!!!

I’ve been going to Massage Envy for around 10 years now. I always look forward to my massages to help relieve stress and for overall health in loosening up tense muscles. For the past number of years, I’ve been having Tracey do my massages, she does a great massage and tailors the massage to any specific requests.

This is a scam they tell you one price but once they have your card they over charge you by a lot.And when I called to ask why they said that am locked into a 12 member ship that they said I could cancel but when I tried they said it’s not possible terrible way to do business

From walking in to the time I left everyone was kind and curtious. Very helpful and definitely polite. I had a massage with Michael this afternoon. Im a gym rat and a heavy lifter on top of being a hair dresser, and my back hasnt felt this good in ages. I completely fell asleep for a portion of the massage. Signed up for a membership today and will definitely be back sooner rather than later. Thank you guys!

The massages are excellent no complaints there. But DO NOT sign up for any monthly massage. I signed up for 6 months. At the end I asked if I had any remaining and was told. 3 months later I found out we are being charged. No monthly call to schedule an appointment like I got during my 6 months to remind me to schedule. Nothing. Now Im out the money and beyond livid with this company.

Review №120

I would not recommend to anybody. Getting a massage should feel relaxing but my time at Massage Envy in Chester actually did the opposite. Management and staff pushy about creating a membership from the second I walked in the door to the second I left. Massage therapist was neither professional, nor properly trained. I wish I could get my money back.

Review №121

Second time coming here and have had bad experiences both times. If you want a real massage do not waste your time here. Ive trained massage therapists for 6+ years and have never had such a bad experience. 90 minutes of rubbing me with minimal lotion to the point where i felt like my leg hair was about to caught fire lol also next to no muscle manipulation. I scheduled a firm to deep too...Left more stressed then when i came in.

I am not one to write a review, but felt Renee went above and beyond helping me yesterday. I wanted to purchase a gift card for my Dad. I went online to do so and it was not working so I called a massage envy close to his house and got Renee. She was super helpful, purchased the card for me, mailed it to him and even wrote a small note for me with the card. While I cannot speak to getting an actual massage, I can say the customer service was fantastic when I called. Thank you!Noelle Hunter

Review №132

Have been a Massage envy member for years and have come to the Chester location on multiple occasions. Made an appointment yesterday for today at 3:30- upon arrival I checked in was told I am all set. Then was told oh your appointment is tomorrow at 3:30. I was surprised and gave the details of the discussion yesterday making the appointment and was told -“no it is tomorrow”. I told them I can’t make it tomorrow and they asked “do you want to cancel”? One staff member asked if I wanted to see if there were later appointments and I could come back. I live about 50 minutes away so that can’t work. Another staff member reviewed today’s bookings and suggested a therapist could be available at 4:00- then the women who told me my appointment was tomorrow replied-“ no he can’t because he has to take his break. “A Very unfortunate experience.

Review №133

Not the best massage I have ever had. I called and booked a 90 minute massage to realize that it is an 80 minute massage with 10 minutes of consulting that was useless. I enjoyed my massage then was told i have to pay a non-member price which was 150$ but the member price is 75$. Just ridiculous not worth paying the member fee, or the non-member price.

Celeste is an amazing massage therapist and a master of her craft. However, the last facial I had was basically a waste of time and money. It seemed as if the aesthetician was doing it for the first time. Very young and seemingly inexperienced. It was laughable.

Review №144

Terrible experience! I went for a facial after receiving a gift card. I made my appt for a few days later. They were not very nice when I made the appt, but I kept it anyway. Should have gone with my first instinct and changed to another location. The facial itself was great - Angela is excellent! Then they try to sell you a membership. I told her I would think about it. I was going to join at some point, just not sure about the timing or location. So glad I waited. I went to check out and the girl couldnt get my gift card to work. I tried to show her the email to show her it was valid. She didnt want to see it, wouldnt try to call someone, she wanted me to pay. She said maybe I had to wait a few days before the gift card was valid. The email did not say anything about that, only the expiration time from purchase date. Clearly she hadnt a clue why it wouldnt work, but that is not my problem. I told her I would not pay by anything other than the gift card. I knew it was valid. She kept saying the aesthetician had to get paid. Fine, pay her. Massage envy has the money already when they sent me the gift card. She was really nasty and had no interest in solving the problem, just wanted me to pay. She wrote down my gift card number and said she would speak to the manager. I told her to have the manager call me. Hopefully the manager will get it to work but I will never go back there again. If they are independently operated I may try another location. My girlfriend said Florham Park is good, but they are further away. May be worth the drive.

I was having severe neck pain and called to set an appt. I explained my condition -they recommended deep tissue and I got an appt with Scherri.SHE IS AMAZING! She listened to my issues and focused on that area. She was knowledgeable and explained as she worked and after gave me a 30 second exercise to help me.There was no pressure to purchase they asked and I explained right now its not in my budget.I have already recommended Scherri to 3 friends and family for their specific issues as well.

Don’t become a member here! They make it extremely difficult to cancel. Bought a six month membership. In order it cancel and not have it automatically renew I had to literally go IN PERSON to cancel. I had one remaining session THAT I PAID for and they said I lost it because I haven’t been there in a few months and am no longer a member. Their solution when I told them I was upset, in pain and needed a session (the one I PAID for) was to join for another 6 months. Really? No thank you! Assistant manager was rude and completely unprofessional. Rockaway location is better. Save yourself the headache and go somewhere else.

Review №169

Bait and switch on the membership. Buyer beware. If you buy a membership as a gift for someone, note that although they tell you the membership begins when the recipient has their first appointment, this is not the truth. The membership period begins when you purchase it. For example, if you bought someone a 6 month membership on December 5th as a Christmas gift, almost the entire first month would be lost by the time you gave them the gift, leaving them with only 5 months of membership. This is even more problematic when there are no weekend or evening appointments available for a few weeks. Also note that unless you cancel your membership in writing at the end of the time period purchased, they will auto-renew your membership and charge your credit card.
