Each time I visit Fort Collins I try to make time to get a message at Amara. The staff are warm and friendly. The services are wonderful have left each time feeling refreshed and relaxed. Both Paul and Chase are amazing. Thank you all
Ive had two fabulous massages at Amara. The facility is well designed, furnished, and the staff is welcoming. Ive been fortunate to have Kendall Lockwood both times. Shes a delightful woman with experienced, strong intuitive hands. Ive had many theraoeutuc massages in my life because of multiple injuries-whiplash, broken shoulder, pelvis, wrist and ankle. Additionally, I have thoracic outlet syndrome and impingement. I always am so impressed shes able to treat all these in a 90-minute custom massage. Try her, you will not be disappointed!!
Sheila was absolutely amazing! I did a 90 minute, custom massage and every moment of it was heaven. I enjoy deep tissue massages, and Sheila did not disappoint. The pressure was amazing and so relaxing. Definitely going back! 10/10 recommend!!
From the welcome at the desk and the sense that this is a place to relax and leave stress elsewhere, it was an excellent experience. My therapist, Brittany, was communicative and receptive to my needs and addressed them in an expert manner. The space for the massage was relaxing and comfortable. Highly recommend.
Jenna at Amara Massage is fantastic. With little notes, she accurately located my trouble areas and provides perfect heavy pressure. The whole Amara team is kind, patient, and helpful. I have tried several massage businesses in Fort Collins and confidently recommend Amara as the best (price, availability, environment, and quality staff).
Absolutely, the best hands down massage therapy Ive ever had. They are the best in Fort Collins for a reason. I have truly enjoyed working with Emily A and Jenna. They are fabulous massage therapists and always make the visit worth every penny.
Kendall was amazing. I got a 60 min custom massage. She got all my knots but I was totally relaxed too! And everyone there was so nice. Definitely recommend.
I had Shelia today, and I have to say that was the best massage I’ve gotten. The space is amazing and peaceful. The attendant at the front was super friendly and helpful. 10/10 recommend. Thank you!
I had a wonderful first experience at Amara this morning. If you’re wondering if it’s worth it—it is! I feel so much better and less tense after just one 60 minute session. Everyone was so pleasant.
Ive had an amazing experience with Amara - everything from scheduling to the massage to checking out. They are very organized, clean, and professional. My favorite massage so far has been the Focus - I appreciate being able to get special attention in an area that needs it - and I have walked out feeling relief for days and days each time!
I struggle with tension headaches brought on by stress and neck pain. Chase was able to give me the deep tissue pressure I needed to break down a lot of my tension in my neck and shoulders! This was my 3rd time at Amara and none of their therapists have ever disappointed me and their front staff is always super informative and helpful when booking and checking out. Thanks again everyone! I will finally get a good night sleep 🙌
Love this place!! Jenna was amazing!! Mentioned my back and shoulders were very sore from a lot of tennis, she was spot on! Will be back soon!
Loved my massage! Brittany has a healing touch. The first time I was able to truly relax while getting my knots worked out.
Tearza was great. I went for my first ever massage to try it out. I had suffered an injury bike racing a few days prior and she was very accommodating to make sure I was comfortable throughout. I’ll definitely be back!
This is a great place to get an excellent massage. Kendall is a knowledgeable and detail oriented massage therapist and has helped improve my chronic pain. Highly recommend.
I love Amara! I have booked with Jenna July several times, who is fantastic at addressing my needs and ensuring I feel comfortable throughout the session. My typical areas of concern are my upper back, neck, and TMJ, and after a session I feel so much relief! I highly recommend Amara for anyone looking for a great massage experience. I also love how you you can choose a scented oil for your session! All the small details count :)
My therapist, Emily, did a fantastic job of hearing what I needed and responding accordingly. The pressure requested was fantastic. Great experience overall. Highly recommend!
It was an amazing experience. The employees were beyond helpful and made it super comfortable. I am in my 3rd trimester of my Pregnancy and with all the body changes I was uncomfortable and needed to try something, so I got a massage. It would recommend Amara you anyone and everyone. I cant wait to go back for another life saving Massage.
Amara Massage was amazing. Jenna July used the perfect amount of pressure and tailored her approach to my specific needs. Would absolutely return and recommend Amara to anyone!
From the front desk to the massage therapist. Everything was handled so well, everyone was so inviting and friendly. Highly recommended Amara. Atmosphere was so relaxing and well appointed. Very well maintained.Look forward to booking again.Thank you Amara team.
We have to agree with the people in Fort Collins. This is the best spa the city has to offer. Great client screening to best determine needs and excellent therapists to meet those needs.
Emily A does a fantastic job each time I come in for a massage after my strenuous work trips. Great atmosphere, very clean and professional, highly recommend!
Love the ambiance of Amara. Everyone I’ve encountered that works there is very friendly. Always leave feeling relaxed and refreshed.
Incredible massage! Caden is so good at listening to what you need and helps me feel like I am healing all the challenging areas of my body. Feel so happy to get a massage from him one time a month! Thank you!!!
My schedule is often crazy and usually I bounce around multiple massage places, but Amara is always the first place I check for availability. Doesnt matter which masseuse Ive seen, theyve always done an outstanding job. Today I received the best massage of my life courtesy of Emily. For the quality that you get, the prices are worth it.
Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. I have had a lot of great massages, in a lot of different cities and I can assure you that Paul has gifted hands. Will definitely be returning. My husband saw Kendall and had an equally amazing experience. 10/10.
My first experiences at Amara, last minute booking. Overall happy with experience. Therapist listened to priorities and made some recommendations. Thank you.
Kendall was very attentive to the spots I requested and applied the perfect amount of pressure. Best massage I’ve ever had!
Serene atmosphere and excellent service. Olive is an amazing therapist. She is professional and truly knowledgeable.
Emily was amazing! Professional, let me relax and didnt talk me up. Hot towels and pads are thre best! Have been having shoulder issues, but she took care of it. 11/10 recomend.
I had a great experience at Amara. Massages are easy to book, they have a wide variety of treatment options and massage therapists. The space is comfortable, quiet and inviting. Emily was my masseuse and I had a great experience. Perfect pressure, listened to my needs, and made it enjoyable and relaxing.
Natalie was AMAZING! I had not had a full, head to toe massage, in 2 years or more and my experience at Amara was AWESOME!! I will definitely be back! Such a relaxing experience, and I highly recommend Amara!!
My massage with Sheila OShaughnessy was by FAR the best Ive ever had. She applied wonderful strong pressure, found every tiny area that needed extra attention, and was truly just incredible. Cant recommend enough.
After working 67 hour weeks away from home, this is what I needed. Jenna July is the experienced, knowledgeable professional.
Stella was great. Loved the pressure she applied and the scalp/head massage was the best.
Amara Massage is the first place I have ever gotten a massage at where I wanted to return again in the future. I have had a handful of other massages at different places and it just never seemed like something I wanted to come back and spend my money on. The massages at Amara actually feel like they are helping me regain some mobility and improve my back function. Its sort of a bit by bit process but it really feels worthwhile. I would definitely recommend it.
When I enter Amara, I feel transported to a quiet, Zen space. Natalie is a talented masseuse and my experience was most enjoyable
Love Amara massage! I’ve seen 2 different female massage therapists here and both were great. They’re good listeners, respectful, and create a sense of peace and safety. Only wish they had a nap room so I didn’t have to drive home immediately after!
Julie is wonderful! She really helps me so much!!! She has the perfect touch. Loved the calm atmosphere and everyone was very friendly! Excellent customer service!!! I will continue to come back to her!
Everything was perfect and my massage therapist Natalie was amazing I already booked for another visit!
I booked a last minute appointment with Stella and it was the best, most relaxing massage I have had!
I had an absolutely wonderful massage with Paul earlier this week! He was amazing and really worked out a lot of knots and tension. I always ask for a ton of pressure for massages and he really delivered! Amara as a whole is wonderful- very clean and cozy with friendly staff. The front desk is great about working with your schedule and preferences. They made sure to match my partner and I with therapists that would best suit our needs. We will be going back regularly.
I felt relaxed right away when I walked in. Amara is tranquil and the staff is welcoming and friendly. Caden did an amazing job!
Jenna was absolutely incredible! She is great, kind, and really made me feel comfortable. What a great way to spend my birthday. Cannot wait to return!
By far the best place Ive ever been to. I made my first appointment when my daughter had an event at CSU and I was killing time. Theyre worth the hour drive for me to go back. My second visit they had all the notes on my preferences and were ready with an adjustable table and bolsters since I cant lay flat on my back for long. Absolutely amazing place.
Amara is my favorite place in town and I have tried many. They have multiple professionals I love to see for my massages. There staff is friendly and well-organized. Their facilities and clean and comfortable. I am glad I found them!
Every single therapist I have seen has been amazing!! Will continue to go here for years to come!
Amazing massage as usual!! I love this location, super peaceful and the staff is awesome!
I received a wonderful massage from Jenna at Amara. As requested, she provided heavy pressure, a quiet environment with minimal distractions, and utilized the entire 60 minutes with focus. I loved the space and the oils, lotions, and aromatic sprays. The entire experience felt custom and I scheduled a follow-up massage immediately.
Kendall was fantastic. Less of a relaxation massage and more of a sports massage. Exactly what I asked for.
Amara Massage is a great place to go. All the people are wonderful and super friendly. Jenna is great at what she does focusing on my needs while also giving a great whole body massage experience! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to get a massage!
Always a wonderfully experience getting a massage here. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing treat to themselves.
Sheila is very talented and finely tuned in her work. I’ve had 2 fabulous massages.
Marcus was wonderful, he happily assisted me with an issue tonight and was so delightful and helpful!
Visited Amara for the first time today and what an incredible experience. Emily was my therapist and she is exceptional, her technique is superb and communication was greatly appreciated. I have felt SO relaxed since my massage, on cloud 9 thank you Emily! 😉 Will definitely return again and again.
Amara Massage is awesome! The staff is friendly, and Kendall is Amazing!!! I highly recommend!!
I find that Caden is professional, courteous and knows what he is doing!! Am blessed to have him working on my therapy.
My first experience at Amara was stellar. Lovely staff, no wait time, and one of the best massages I’ve ever had. Chase’s knowledge of pressure points, his use of just the right amount of pressure, and his interest in understanding my specific needs gives him a 5+ rating in my book. I’ll definitely go back. And, their pricing is reasonable. What more can you ask for?
I’ve been to Amara twice for a massage and both experiences have been wonderful and soothing. I love the location, aesthetic and the atmosphere is cozy and calming the moment you walk into the building. Warm, welcoming staff, clean facility. I don’t remember the name of the masseuse I scheduled with the first time but I booked a last-minute massage with Dylan and both he and the previous masseuse had a safe, calming presence, gentle demeanor and wisdom. I look forward to going back and highly recommend, especially if you’re in the Old Town area.
Thanks, Stella for an incredibly skillful massage! Stella took the time to ask me how my body was feeling that day and what would be most beneficial to me in my 60-minute session. During the session, Stella was able to identify and work through some critical tension areas and I left feeling so much better than I walked in. Thank you!
This is an amazing location. The massage therapists are incredible and have helped me tremendously with a torn rotator cuff and shoulder pain in the last year. Plus you can go to mugs or choice city butcher afterwards for some food!
Great prices and outstanding service! Wife and I went together and were very happy with the massage. We will definitely be returning in the future.
The massage was so relaxing and lovely. I loved the essential oil options that were included. Everything was so professional and exactly what I needed at 36 weeks pregnant. They made me feel so comfortable and made sure I was able to say something if there was anything I didn’t like or wanted. I’d definitely return!
Felt so pampered and relaxed after my massage! Amber was so warm and professional and made sure I was comfortable and relaxed during my massage, I hope to be back soon! Such a kind and calming presence! Love the friendly staff and overall calming and cozy ambience of Amara
I just had probably the best massage of my life! Sheila was amazing.
My husband got me a 60 minute custom massage here for my birthday. It was my first time at this place. The place is located right below the Mugs Old Town cafe—there are stairs and signage that is located between Choice City Butcher & Deli and Mugs Old Town cafe.I showed up a little early to fill out the form (asks for preferences and any health issues/concerns) and sign the waiver. The lady at the desk was really nice and asked if I would like any water while I waited. The massage itself was very relaxing and just what I needed! The masseuse, Emily would occasionally ask if the pressure was ok or if I needed less/more pressure. The warm towel compress felt really nice! Afterwards, as I was checking out at the front desk the lady up front offered a free chapstick since I was a first time customer. Highly recommend!
My first time here at Amara massage and it was such an overall great experience. The ladies at the front desk are so kind and positive.My second prenatal massage ever and a Julie did an amazing job!! I’m in my 3rd trimester and I’ve been so uncomfortable. 90 minutes later and I feel SO relaxed and the tension in my hips, feet and neck are gone.Highly recommend and will be back!
Emily provided a thorough relaxation massage that I thoroughly enjoyed and benefitted from.
Everytime I visit Amara for a massage it is a special experience. I love the cozy and calm underground environment and always have a phenomenal masseuse. It is the absolute best way to treat yourself when you are in need of a little self care. Olive was fabulous and I will be back to visit her soon!
Wonderful salon with a great atmosphere. Staff is friendly and my massage always leaves me relaxed
Sheila was professional and knowledgeable about how to work with me. I highly recommend her!
I was able to call and get in the same day. The woman I spoke to on the phone was very nice and informative. My therapist, Emma, was super kind and professional, and gave me the best massage experience Ive ever had. Everything about it was perfect! Ill definitely be back.
Had a massage with Paul and it was the best of my life. That means a lot bc Ive had many massages and rarely take the time to leave a review, but I have to say if youre into deep tissue massages from someone who understands the body well and is truly artful with their work, book with Paul!
Natalie is an excellent massage therapist. She applied the right amount of pressure to ensure I had a relaxing massage while also working out all of those knots in my neck and back. Thank you!
Amanda was my massage therapist today and she is excellent. It was my first massage ever and she made sure I felt comfortable and safe. I got a focus massage for my back and it feels better than it has in ages. Highly recommend
Just had my first ever professional massage with Stella for my birthday and it was great! Being an anxious person who is nervous about the idea of a stranger touching me, I was definitely worried for my first time. But all the worry was for nothing and Im feeling ten times better and so relaxed. Stella is a calm and non intimidating energy for a nervous nelly like me, and I was never uncomfortable. Time to go back home and crawl back into bed now haha
Booking is easy online with many times available to fit your schedule. Caden did a wonderful job finding tense areas and applying the perfect amount of pressure. I left feeling the most relaxed and relived I’ve ever felt!
Everyone I spoke with was exceptionally considerate and friendly. Brittany gave me a wonderful, wonderful massage and was so kind about some pain Ive been dealing with.
Paul is such an amazing masseuse!!! If I could give him 10 stars, I most certainly would. Such a beautiful spirit on top of really knowing his stuff and making someone come away with not only relaxation but also less pain...a gift to be sure. Thank you!
The energy was unmatched from the moment we walked in we felt relaxed and calm! I got the massage for my boyfriends birthday and he couldn’t stop raving about how amazing Britney was during his massage! He mentioned it felt like the fastest hour of his life and he could’ve stayed all day! We will definitely be returning!
Wonderful experience! Comfortable table and room. Great service from check in to check out. Chase is great at working out the knots with deep tissue massage and making it relaxing at the same time. I really enjoyed our conversation as well
I got a massage with Brittany and it was great! I haven’t had a professional massage in probably about 10 years so I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect but she did not disappoint. It was so relaxing and definitely targeted towards the areas that I hurt the most. She even showed me a stretch at the end that I can do that could help relieve some of the tension in my chest. The table can be heated which was a very nice touch. The whole experience was just beyond enjoyable. I can’t wait to go back!
Great atmosphere and customer service. Brittany is the best and I highly recommend Amara!
I had one of the best massages of my life from Sheila. I can’t wait until my next massage. The vibes are also really relaxing, if you’re considering going, go.
I have been going to Amara Massage for several years and I can not speak highly enough of the staff and the therapists. Everyone there provides a truly wonderful, relaxing experience! Amanda is an amazing massage therapist and I highly recommend her! Thank you Amara!
Kendall Lockwood is amazing. My husband hates massages but really needed one due to back pain. She fixed him right up!!!
I’ve had massages in a lot of different places with a lot of different therapists, but Tearza and Chase are two of the best I’ve had! Staff is always friendly and want to provide a relaxing experience. I don’t feel pressured like I might at a corporate establishment. Definitely make sure you get a therapist who caters to your needs, as there are many qualified therapists here and they all provide different experiences.
I had my first massage at Amara today and I am SO glad I booked! I cant wait to come back and make this more of a regular thing for myself and my well-being routine. Thank you!!
Had a great massage this afternoon!Such a peaceful environment! Emily gives a wonderful massage….highly recommend her!
This was my first time at Amara and I could not be more pleased! Everything was extremely relaxing and my therapist Alyse (or Elise) was so kind and soothing! They take into consideration where you want them to focus, without compromising the entirety of a full body massage. I had a lovely experience and would highly recommend Amara!
Amara is wonderful. I’ve been coming here for a couple of years. The therapists are all very skilled and professional. The space is calming, relaxing, and very clean, and the prices are reasonable. It’s a great local business where you can treat yourself to a massage on a regular basis. I love that massage is all they do. They focus on one thing and do it well.
I had a wonderful massage yesterday at Amara Massage in Fort Collins! Sheila followed all of my requests and applied the pressure that I felt I needed. Very relaxing, felt like a million when I left there.The person at the desk was efficient and knowledgeable. Thank you to all involved with me!I would highly recommend this spa for a great massage! ☮
I just left the best massage of my entire life! I’m currently 34 almost 35 weeks pregnant and had a prenatal massage by Amber. She was so in tune and intuitive with what my body needed. It was almost like my body was asking for what area to move to next and she would just go there! She was obviously very knowledgeable and made every effort to make sure I was in a comfortable position. It was the most relaxing and therapeutic massage. I left feeling nurtured and very well cared for. You can tell she loves what she does and takes pride in her craft. I didn’t want it to end and honestly can’t wait to go back!!
Got massages here for my best friends birthday and it’s hands down the best massages we’ve ever had. Thank you!
I hesitate to tell you all about this hidden gem because then I will never be able to make an impromptu appointment. ;) But seriously, what a lovely atmosphere and staff, so calm and and welcoming. Amanda has magic fingers, best massage I ever had! She listened to my requested pressure and used the perfect amount. Lastly, it is all the little extra thoughtful details that really pushes this wonderful establishment to the top--heated tables, cold eye masks, heated neck pillows, delightful smelling oils and heated towels.Amara Massage Therapy and Wellness will have you floating on a blissful cloud of paradise!
Once again, Amber did an amazing job! She is always so friendly and professional! She STILL has the hands of a goddess and my back is appreciative. This go around, I booked a 60 min massage online and received a text a couple days prior with the offer of a 90 min massage. I agreed to it and have no regrets! It won’t be the last time I visit Amara Massage!
This was my first massage and Amber was AMAZING! She made me feel comfortable which I was really appreciative of. I would definitely recommend! If I didnt have to go back to Illinois I would schedule weekly!
Received a relaxation massage from Brittany, and everything was perfect. She gave my sore spots the perfect amount of attention and pressure. Her scalp massage nearly made me fall asleep 😴 and she was so sweet, kind and professional. Highly recommend!
I appreciate and love the calming environment. All of the therapists are professional and I have never had a massage I didn’t enjoy
I had a great Massage with Alyse. My husband had someone else (not sure who). As far as the place/room goes, it was comfortable & relaxing100%. The staff was super friendly as well. Everyone is different, likes different things. Each massage is not the same, especially with different massage therapists. It was great, but not the best of our lives. I would most likely go back & have Alyse, but my husband said he would try again but with someone different. He said it was awkward pressure even though he spoke up about what he did/didnt like. Not sure if it was my husband, the therapist, or all of the above. But dont let this stop you from trying them out, they have plenty of 5 star reviews, & as mentioned above, everyone is different.
This spa was so beautiful inside with the sweetest receptionists! I appreciated the calming energy and dark ambience. Tearza worked a miracle on my neck, shoulders, and back. I frequent massages and spas and this was definitely a 5 out of 5. So professional and took her time on my muscles and knots. I’m absolutely booking another appointment with Tearza. I don’t think it can get any better!!!
Had my second massage ever and cannot recommend Amara more. From the quiet and relaxing welcome, to understanding therapists, it is truly a memorable, relaxing experience. Cant wait to start including this in my regular self care routine.
Loved my massage with Caden! He was very polite and professional. Asked my preferences and made me feel total serenity!
I love this place! Chase is incredible! He was so friendly, knowledgeable, and fantastic at what he does! It was one of the best massages Ive ever had!! I will definitely be going back to see him, wonderful addition to Amara!
Im usually not one for glowing reviews but Amara is an exceptional experience. Marcus at the front desk is super nice and gets me checked in, cup of filtered water in hand, within seconds. The rates are reasonable with aroma therapy and hot towels included. Ive been worked on by five different therapists, all of whom were of exceptional quality and professionalism (personal favorite is Ashley!! Shes straight out of school but youd think shes been practicing for years. Amazing.)
I love Amara! I see Brittany B. and she is absolutely fantastic. She listens and does the perfect amount of pressure to make it effective. Such a wonderful massage every time! Highly recommend!
This was my first massage ever and I was very pleased. The staff was very nice and passionate walking me through everything. My massage therapist Kathryn was kind and asked me the perfect questions. When I explained I was a hairstylist she gave me a recommendation that I was not disappointed with. Asked me about pressure and reminded me to breath. Everything was extremely clean and beautiful. I loved how Amara was underground it was dark and quite you wouldn’t know that you were in down town fortcollins. All in all this was an amazing experience and I’m excited to be going back to see Kathryn again next month.
Okay this was the best massage I’ve ever had. I’m obsessed. Alyse was incredible, the front desk staff were so sweet, and the facility was clean and comfy. The “extras” during the massage were great - warmed pillow, eye mask, aromatherapy. AND I was stoked that I got the full 60 minutes of actual massage (unlike some places where 60 minutes = 50 minutes of hands on time). Never going back to Massage Envy!
This place is amazing! I came because I got a gift certificate, but the prices are so reasonable! From the moment you walk in, the environment is calm and relaxing. The reception staff are so warm, friendly, and professional. I called ahead to check about what oils and lotions they use due to a skin/contact allergy, and the receptionist was so knowledgeable about the products they use there. Their oils and lotions are vegan/organic/natural, and my massage therapist used fragrance-free options on me that did not irritate my skin at all. When I came in for my appointment, reception staff and my massage therapist checked in about the products. It made me feel so relieved that they took my concern seriously and communicated about it.Amber was my massage therapist, and she was wonderful! She was very calming, friendly, and professional. She explained things very thoroughly and was very attentive to my needs.I will definitely come again!
Amara is fantastic. I found them after reading reviews for prenatal massages in Fort Collins. Brittany, Ashley and Sheila have all been excellent and have kept me feeling good during my pregnancy. I will definitely continue to visit even after my baby is born.
I have been seeing Emili for about 4 months now and can honestly say she has changed my life! The entire staff at Amara is always friendly and helpful. I feel like I have a new family here. Highly recommend!
I received a gift card from a friend and it was such a nice treat to start the New Year! I booked a custom massage with Ashley. She’s amazing! She was very intuitive during my massage. She always asked how the pressure was and kept reminding me to breathe. She found tension in my body I didn’t know was there! She educated me on where I hold stress and techniques to help reduce tension throughout the day. I highly recommend her!From the phone booking, check-in and check-out, Amara’s staff was very warm and welcoming! I’ll definitely be back!
I absolutely LOVE this place! I have seen a few different massage therapist and they have all been incredible. I want to highlight Heather, who is the one I see most often. She is incredible!! She made me feel so comfortable and always targets any concerns I have. I always leave her table feeling renewed and relaxed. I would highly suggest her!
I just had a pretty awesome massage by, Emma. It was fantastic, and very thorough, I feel like a new person! Highly recommended, I know Ill be returning. Thank you so much!
I love this place. Amber is amazing at prenatal massages and I always leave feeling better. She’s attentive to my needs, makes me feel comfortable, and really takes into consideration what I don’t like such as talking a lot during the massage. But she holds a good conversation if I do strike one up! The front desk has always been friendly, clean, respectful, and even knows what I need before I tell them. Great place and will continue to go there.
Today I went to Amara for another massage. Beau was my therapist and intuitively knew exactly what was needed. He applied the exact right amount of pressure, and performed assisted stretches with me. What was equally important to me is that Beau educated me on how I can do some of the stretches myself. It’s going to take some time for some of the work I need done, but I know Beau and Amara are in it for the short and the long haul when it comes to helping me. Thank you Amara and especially thank you Beau. businesses anymore. Amara respects and values their clients. Check them out in Old Town Fort Collins.
Was my first massage ever, and was phenomenal. Emili did a fantastic job working on my back and knees. Took out all the knots, and made it so to where there is no longer any pain or tension. Will definitely be coming back in the near future.The atmosphere alone was very soothing and relaxing. As well as the rest of the staff goes, everyone was very polite and professional.
Best place in FoCo for a massage. Atmosphere is great, staff are friendly, and the massages are incredible. So grateful to have been recommended this place!!
Amara is always so easy to schedule and get an appointment! Kendall was so good- she focused on the areas I asked her to and gave me some ideas for stretching/working out my problem spots!
I just received an amazing deep tissue massage from Emili. She was outstanding, really listened to me, found right where my pain areas were, and was able to relieve lots of pain and tension. Honestly one of the best deep tissue massages I have ever received, and I will definitely be back. On top of that, everyone working at Amara is awesome, their customer service is great and they really value their customers. Thanks for an amazing experience, I will be back!
Bit of a disappointment. Went in with two specific issues, one in my shoulder one in my mid/lower back. While the shoulder issue was at least addressed, asking for deeper pressure didn’t change the massage. And my back wasn’t addressed at all. My back is uncomfortable with pretty mild pressure, and I felt none during the three minutes she spent on it. Considering the amount of money I spent I’m underwhelmed. The staff was very friendly, the atmosphere was nice, but that’s all very secondary to me, and doesn’t make up for the fact I’m still in pain
My first time at Amara. The atmosphere is quiet, relaxing and well done. My Thai massage with Julie was exceptional. She evaluated my needs/wishes and was able to find areas that I didnt even know were trouble spots. The next morning, I felt great - I was very energized physically and mentally. I would highly recommend Amara and Julie.
This place is amazing! I have been going to Amara for a year or so and have always had a wonderful experience. Recently, I found out that my therapist had left and I was devastated. When I called, Marcus reassured me that they had another therapist on staff that has a similar style to the one I was working with. I was a little hesitant but I went for it. Since then, I’ve had two massages with Tearza and I am so glad Marcus gave me the recommendation! (Also, shout out to Marcus for always being warm and professional - he is the best!) Tearza specializes in medium to deep pressure which can be hard to come by. She is extremely talented and her deep understanding and thorough knowledge of the human body is obvious to all who work with her. She has super strong hands and will work out any knot you’ve got! Tearza is able to take you right to the edge but never crosses the line into uncomfortable or painful territory. I truly leave every session revitalized and feeling on top of the world. If you are in need of a massage, look no further than Amara. And if you are brave enough to go for the deep pressure, have no fear because Tearza will take great care of you!
Had an excellent massage here with Emily. The service was great!
This is hands down the best massage experience I have ever had. I had stepped away from the world of massage for awhile because I continued to have a pretty negative experience with it and had given up hope of a good massage. I was a first time customer at Amara and even just walking in knew that I was in good hands. Emili H was my masseuse this evening and I can’t give her enough praise. She made the entire experience wonderful and made sure that I had everything I needed. I cannot express how important self care is and this place is the place to do it. It may seem expensive but it is absolutely worth every penny and more. So excited that I found this place and look forward to more massages in the future.
I had an excellent visit to Amara Massage Therapy and Wellness. Everyone is super nice and helpful. Whitney was my therapist and she was great. She was very calm, attentive to my likes, dislikes, and needs, and she was very nice and friendly. The atmosphere at Amara was very relaxed and laid back. I enjoyed my visit and plan to return.
Amanda was phenomenal! It felt like she had 6 hands. Feels amazing to be relaxed again. Thank you, so very much!!
I have been coming to Amara for about 10 years or so. Because my schedule is a little weird, I am often seeing a different therapist on each visit. That being said, I have NEVER had a bad experience. The front desk staff is extremely friendly and each massage therapist is incredible!
I received a massage at Amara from my sisters. It was my first massage ever.I absolutely loved every bit of it! My masseuse was Amber and she was absolutely wonderful! A perfect way to relax :)Thank you Amara for not only having amazing masseuses, but also for a lovely, relaxing atmosphere!
Amara is the best place in town for a massage. Jaimie Lynn was amazing with my back, shoulders and neck!
Olive was awesome for a newbie like me, super convenient and quiet spot right in old town!
I bought a massage for my husband and surprised him with it in the middle of the work week. He came home feeling incredible, recognizing he stores way more tension in his back than he realized, and is now convinced he needs to get massages more often given how great he felt afterward. The process was super smooth. Service was great. And from my own experience at Amara, the setting is serene and inviting of peace and rest.
Ive been coming to Amara for a few months now, and cant recommend them enough! Ive worked with two therapists, and they are both phenomenal. The staff are friendly, and the atmosphere is lovely. Highly recommended!
Amara Massage is top notch. The environment is calming, inviting, and professional. Crystal is absolutely the BEST and takes the time to create a completely personalized experience for her clients. She makes sure that the massage you receive from her will be relaxing, therapeutic, and beneficial for your overall wellness. I have seen her for both Swedish and deep-tissue, and she absolutely knows what she is doing! I am feeling so much better and I credit Crystal and Amara Massage as being an integral part of my health/wellness program. I highly recommend Amara Massage and will not be getting massages from anyone else in Fort Collins!!
When I tell you this is the only massage place I will go to, and I live in Colorado Springs. The staff is wonderful, the quality of massage is 10000/10, the vibes of the spa are immaculate, I could go on and on. Please give this spa a shot, you won’t be disappointed.
Amara was a very relaxing environment. My massage therapist, Amber, was so friendly and really paid attention to all of my needs. She gave me a lot of tips to be doing at home too. I will definitely be going back!
This was the first time I have been to Amara Massage Therapy and Wellness. It was the best massage experience I have had. I called the day before to schedule my massage and was able to get one right away. The receptionist was very friendly and answered all my questions and was able to schedule me with the Massage Therapist to best suite my needs. I had a gift certificate that my son purchased for me a few years ago, and had no problem using it. I used it for my massage and for some of the wonderful goodies they have in their waiting area. My check in went smoothly and so did the check out process. There was a woman who came in as I was checking out and that woman was being beyond rude; the receptionist was very professional in dealing with this customer. Unlike some other reviews I am seeing, the entire staff were professional, kind, and helpful. Sometimes the attitude of the customer results in the treatment of the customer and this should be kept in mind if you want to have a good experience anywhere. Now on to my review of my Massage Therapist... Meredith Bales CMT was amazing! Very professional, polite, knowledgeable, and has great talent in her skills as a Massage Therapist. I like to chit-chat, and she was a delight when I decided to chat. I am going to be scheduling many more sessions with Meredith and at Amara!
Emili is so talented, kind and knowledgeable. She has helped me through lots of chronic pain and celebrated with me when I’ve made progress. The staff at Amara is so friendly and the atmosphere is very welcoming. I’d recommend this company to all family and friends!
I ha e been going to this spa since 2014 when I lived in Torrington, Wyoming. It was worth every mile driven.. now, I live and work just up the street and the temptation to get a weekly massage is strong!Beautiful environment that has a calming magic you cant deny. Highly skilled massage therapists who are knowledgeable, friendly, and professional.I love the weekly emails that notify me of openings - they have saved me a few times when Ive had migraines and needed help to relieve the tension in my shoulders, back, neck and... forearms (apparently?)I highly recommend Amaras team for relaxation and deep tissue, but if, like me, you suffer from migraines, I cannot encourage you enough to stop in for a session. Absolute miracle workers!There is a hotel and restaurant right above them so some noise carries down and cannot be avoided. However, once in the zone (and you will get there quick!) you wont notice a sound, you will be so lost in the moment.
I always love my experience at Amara. The atmosphere is relaxing. Suzy who is a the front desk is such a warm, friendly person. Ive used both Jamie and Shelby for deep tissue massages and both do an amazing job. Im moving out of state and really going to miss this place!
What a great experience, loved every minute. Stella was spectacular. I left relaxed and in less pain.
Ive had acupuncture done for a variety of reasons - and was really pleased with the overall experience. Firstly, Amara is a really nice wellness center - inviting, cozy reception area, relaxing beds and awesome location right in Old Town. High end feel for a reasonable price. The staff and therapists are all really friendly and talented.My acupuncture with Jeff was a great success - not only did it loosen me up and release my stress, but I was amazed with the immediate results on a hand injury. 12 years ago I broke my hand and recently have been having some issues with it again, very sore and not being able to close my fist - after one session of acupuncture at Amara I was able to fully clench my fist with no pain.Overall a 5 star experience and I will definitely be returning to Amara for both Acupuncture and massage therapy.
Great massage with Paul. Addressed all issues, communicated, started on-time, finished on-time and I feel super! Loved my massage tonight!
Great experience at Amara! My therapist was a perfect match for my needs! Will definitely make getting a massage regularly a priority! Thanks again!
I have gone to Amara many times and have always had an outstanding experience. The staff there is extremely professional and kind, and the massage therapist that I work with is easily the best Ive ever worked with. I look forward to continuing to visit and support Amara for years to come.
I came in for a relaxing massage and also to have a few knots worked out. I enjoyed my experience at Amara very much. Elli gave a wonderful massage and gave me some tips for stretches to do at home as well. I felt amazing afterwards and slept better that night than I have for weeks! I will definitely be back. Thank you so much!
First time ever getting a massage and I absolutely loved it. I felt safe and relaxed. It was just what my body needed. I would definitely recommend Amara.
My massage was fantastic. Elli encouraged feedback about all aspects (pressure, temperature, etc) and gave me a massage that helped lower my shoulders several inches. Everything was comfortable and soothing with extensive sanitation procedures. I will definitely be returning!
They have a very inviting, friendly and nice space. Amber asked questions about trouble areas and what I needed before starting. She then gave me a fantastic massage! She worked the trouble areas very well, I left feeling much better than when I arrived!
Great experience at Amara. Emily gave a great massage, listened to what I wanted, and provided the ultimate in a relaxing environment.
Fabulous place...wonderful massage. Meredith took her time to find out where I needed the most focus. Since my neck and shoulders were really tight, Meredith worked patiently and thoroughly on those areas. She worked out the knots WITHOUT pain. Amazing. I actually had full range of motion in my neck when she finished. Ill be back!
I had a massage with Dylan for the first time and honestly cant say enough good things. I didnt go in for anything specific, I was just looking for an overall relaxing massage with some focus around problem areas (stressed out shoulders and whack hips). He made me feel so comfortable and at ease. His attention to detail, by asking if I wanted a hot compress for my chest/neck and ~not forgetting about my feet!!!~ was really fantastic! I really felt like he was listening to my body and naturally spent more time on areas that were talking more. I find some therapists avoid more intimate areas (thinking chest & glutes) for newer clients which I understand but those trouble spots are usually quite literally why Im getting a massage. Dylan was super respectful and made me feel at ease while still getting into my knitty gritties. As a whole I highly recommend Amara, their entire staff is extremely kind and gentle.
I absolutely love this place! The staff is very accommodating as soon as you walk in the door (shout-out to Marcus!). I scheduled a massage with Heather, and she personalized my massage for what my body specifically needed. I left feeling more energized and relieved of pain! If you are looking for a place that is reasonably priced and just super awesome, this place is for you!
Amara is a very welcoming place, from reception to services to checkout. Bobby at the desk is a delight and does all he can to make my stay convenient. Emili is an intuitive body worker and gets right into my trouble spots. She is strong and moves deliberately but gently on recalcitrant muscles which allows them to give. I hear wonderful things about the other therapists as well. The hot towels are a nice touch that make you feel pampered. Even without them, I would say its the best. Thanks!
Beautiful place, quiet & comfortable, friendly staff. I had a massage with Beau. It was amazing. He used just the right amount of pressure & has an intuitive touch. He helped me relax after a stressful week and my back felt so much better.
This place is absolutely amazing! From the greeting you receive by front desk to the service itself is always impeccable.Emili Holden is honestly gifted. I have never been more impressed with a therapist or the quality of service I receive!Dont miss out on the Golden Tickets at Christmas time either!i WILL BE A CLIENT HERE FOR LIFE:)
Over the course of my hour massage it felt as if I had traveled to multiple realms; I experienced the multiverse today.My massage therapist was excellent and very kind. The massage was relaxing and very therapeutic. I left the studio in a euphoric haze and had to readjust to reality as my soul returned to my body.
Amber Z. deserves all the good things in the world. She is an amazing massage therapist and is so attentive and kind. 5 stars to her! Also, Amara is so homey and inviting. The desk staff are always so nice and helpful!
I did a 90 minute with Emili. She was amazing. Very attentive to my needs and helped explain things I could do to take better care of myself on all fronts. The environment and the entire staff were so welcoming and made it the best experience possible. I went in for treatment for severe pain but Ill return again and again because it was such an enjoyable worthwhile experience!
I had high hopes from all the reviews I saw, but unfortunately I had a mediocre experience. The staff at the front were very friendly. I arrived at 10:40 for a 10:45 appointment. I was brought back to the room at 10:50 by my massage therapist Amber. She was very kind and talked through what I put in my intake form briefly, I got ready and the massage started at about 11...and what was supposed to be 60 minutes ended up being 50. The clock said 11:50 when I opened my eyes. Every place I’ve been to in the past doesn’t typically count your talking/dressing into the massage time. I even saw the girl that went in about 5 minutes before me come out 5 minutes after me with another therapist. Amber did a great job though on the massage, just wished I got my whole 60 minutes I paid for. Additionally, the music was nice, but unfortunately there was a lot of noise coming from outside of the room...talking in the lobby, talking in other rooms, etc. so I’d recommend finding a way for it to be more quiet. I’m used to extremely quiet massage salons.
This is my first appointment in the COVID era and with Meredith. I felt totally safe and comfortable with the safety procedures. The checkin process was easy although it took me a minute to get it right. I had help with checking out so that I could leave a tip but I think that is totally automated as well. I will know better next time. This is my first time with Meredith and she listened carefully to what I wanted and delivered on it. I will be coming back!!
I just had a fantabulous experience with Caden. He’s a pros-pro through-and-through and his neck work in particular is differentiating. Treat yourself to a session with Caden. You won’t regret it!!!
I have been looking for a massage place for a very long time. I am so happy I found Amara and that I got Ashley as my masseuse! Ashley is so sweet and listens entently on what the client wants. I like her and Amada massage so much I scheduled a second appointment. Cannot recommend this place more!
EDIT: Adding to this as of 2/15/2021:Because of COVID i havent gotten to come to this place nearly as often as id like. I went today and was reminded of how AMAZING it is. Elli was again my masseuse. They are doing everything they can to make the experience as safe as possible (masks, wash hands on entrance, limited waiting area, staggered appointments), which makes me feel better about it. I highly recommend still!---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I recently moved to the area and went to 2 massage places near my new home and just wasnt getting the pressure I like. I kept searching and came across Amara. Based on what I said I was looking for, the person I spoke to recommended Elli. After the first 60 minute session, I bought 3 more for myself. EXACTLY what I was looking for. I have now just gone back for my second session, and plan to continue. Highly recommend this place!
I had a great massage and overall experience. I will definitely be back.
I am not typically one to get massages often. For me, it’s a “treat” to myself once a year at most. I started coming to Amara last August and have to say, if it weren’t for Amber, I would probably still only be getting massages as an annual birthday treat. She is nothing short of amazing - her positioning, stretching, handling, massage techniques - all phenomenal. If you are looking to relax or work out some serious kinks, check this place out!
I got a massage tonight from Emili. I usually book with her, unless she doesnt have a time available that works for me. That aside, it was a reminder that her massages are the best Ive ever had! I come for stress relief, because my body generally doesnt have any other issues.. and she truly relieves my stress with her techniques! I leave Amara in a happy daze every time! Especially with the work she does at the nape of my neck! Melts away all tension.
Best massage ever! From the warm table, to the neck pillow, the hot towels and the friendly staff, this is a true spa experience. Beautiful setting in Old Town, makes Amara a true indulgence, without costing a fortune. Amara Massage is my favorite place in Fort Collins. From the moment you walk down the stairs to the front door, to the moment you step back out, you are taken away into true luxury.
I have only had one massage previously this this one, and as I told Emili, it was not very memorable. I was incredibly impressed with the customer service during booking, the environment upon arriving and during the massage, the professionalism demonstrated throughout. I will certainly be recommending Amara as well as visiting again!
Had a custom massage with Levi. I have only had a couple of generic full body massages in the past. Despite only 30 minutes, Levi customized my massage to focus on my shoulders and neck and it was awesome! Like most of us, I hold a lot of tension there. He also recommended some great simple stretches I can do on my own. I had a medium pressure massage and thought it was the perfect amount of pressure. Also love the way he stretches your body during the massage. Who knew just having someone extend your body could feel so good! Thanks, Levi!
Brittany G. is amazing! Every experience I’ve had at Amara has been top notch. I highly recommend.
My husband got me a gift card for an early Valentines day gift and it was the best gift! Everyone is friendly and my massage therapist, Heather, was magical. Best massage Ive ever gotten. I will no longer go anywhere else in town! Recommend Amara to everyone!
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Amara for the first time. It was very much like an oasis in the midst if my hectic week. I had a wonderful, relaxing, and restorative massage which left me feeling at once calm and energetic. The staff were amazingly pleasant and friendly, and the appointment times were surprisingly convenient. I would strongly recommend Amara if you would like to take a moment for yourself, and melt away into serenity.
Amara is professional and demonstrating safe practice during the pandemic. Emili gave me the best massage. She uses a variety of techniques to hit sore tight areas but also is relaxing at the same time. Great place to go to relax and get one of the best massages of your life!
I always love coming into Amara for a massage. I’ve seen most of their therapists and each has been consistently excellent. The admin staff are also easy to contact and work with, even through the pandemic.
First time visiting. Warm and inviting atmosphere. Very friendly staff. Terza was great in getting my neck working again! Already booked another session for later in the week.
Amazing, affordable, therapeutic massage in a relaxing atmosphere. Just got one of the best massages Ive ever had in my life from Emili. My shoulder tension had gotten so bad and she gave me the option to work on that area for the entire hour! I feel like I have a brand new back. 10 stars!!!
I had my second massage at Amara. My first massage was a great all around massage, and this time I requested more customization and communication about the tight areas. I was not disappointed and Elli had great recommendations on what I could do at home. Thank you!
Went to see Heather this time. She worked on everything I asked for, and I left very relaxed. I love the atmosphere and complimentary touches they add on (aromatherapy, warm towels, etc). Ive been going to Amara for years, and they are still my favorite in town!
Absolutely recommend this business! My massage was incredible (Amber was so attentive and specific to my needs) and the setup is beautiful, calming, and professional all at once. Will be returning for more amazing massages in the future!
I was greeted with warmth and kindness from all of the staff who worked here. My prenatal massage with Amber could not have come at better timing. She was great and well in tune with my 38 week pregnant needs. I will be back.
Amara is a secret underground lair beneath The Armstrong Hotel where some serious magic is doled out! Catie, the owner, scheduled my appointment and suggested Emili based on my request for a deep tissue massage and firm pressure. I dont go to massage for relaxation. I go to work the knots out of my muscles.Amara is cozy and calm and clean. I chose [complimentary] eucalyptus aromatherapy and settled in under a heated blanket. I like that youre able to customize the massage to your trouble areas. In this case, I elected to have Emili focus on some tight muscles instead of do a whole body treatment. When I left, my stiff neck was erased. Emili will chat as little or as much as you like, and gave me some promising local restaurant recommendations.On the way out, I chatted with the GM, Devon. Everyone seems to truly enjoy working there and it shines through in their client service. They also offer some great discounts/loyalty programs.At Emilis recommendation, I took myself upstairs to Mugs Coffee Shop after for an iced coffee and morning glory muffin. Pampering complete!
Love this place!! Relaxing and therapeutic. Brittany is incredible. She listens and is so focused, she is like a magician! Able to eliminate pain. Highly recommend Amara to everyone!
This is my first ever massage session, however it will definitely NOT be my last. My massage therapist made possible in 60 min what stretching and chiropractic work couldnt do in weeks. I left Amara thinking that I havent felt this loose in months. I highly recommend visiting Amara
I was very impressed with my experience with Amara! Everything was excellent: their prompt response to my email inquiry, their well-executed and thorough social distancing measures, my relaxing massage with Emili, and the overall atmosphere and charm. I would highly recommend a visit to Amara.
Worst massages ever!!! After getting a bone crushing, awkward, and uncomfortable massage, I will NEVER return to this place. I feel the need to warn others....it was that bad. Their employees should not be touching other people ...maybe consider a career change from masseuse to prison guard. I honestly walked out of there in a state of high anxiety.
A lovely spot with really dedicated experts. I come in for relaxation as well as serious work for my trail running. Every time my needs are addressed and Katherine especially is so amazing with providing simple tips on how to maintain stretches at home and education on why it works - really cool to know. A truly great experience in NoCo.
Amara is such a wonderful and peaceful place. They had to make a lot of changes to be safe with COVID and they did so with such professionalism all while keeping a calm and welcoming environment. I highly recommend Amara as the must go massage in Fort Collins.
Amber was spectacular with my massage! She focused on the specific areas that I really needed and I’m very happy. Definitely coming back soon!
Ive heard great things about Amara spa and experienced it myself. I had knots in my back and neck for 2 days and decide dI needed a massage that day. The appointment system was easy and efficient and my therapist was awesome!
Been going here for years and absolutely love it! Amber is amazing at pre-natal (and regular) massages and makes me feel pampered ❤️
Very kind staff, lovely space, and an amazing massage treatment. Kirsten at the front desk was very helpful and kind, and my therapist, Meredith was wonderful. She listened to my concerns and made sure I was completely relaxed.
First visit, had a great massage and will return. The front staff was helpful as well.
This was far and away one of the best massages Ive ever had. Heather is knowledgeable, personable, and radiates kindness and light. Her full attention is on your needs and she did wonders with my frozen shoulder and troubled neck.
I just had a wonderful massage from Ashley. The space was very calming and my back and shoulders feel amazing now! I highly recommend a massage from Amara. Thanks Ashley!
Loved my massage here, the ambience is relaxing from the moment you walk in. Front staff were very friendly and helpful, and my massage therapist, Matt, did a wonderfully relaxing 90 minute massage. He was very professional and had great rapport with me from the beginning. All around great experience, I highly recommend Matt and Amara massage.
I moved to Denver and SO desperately miss you guys! This place has always been amazing. From the relaxing environment, to every therapist, you really feel taken care of and your body feels wonderful afterwards. Thank you for your help with my car accident in 2018 and all of the great care.
I had a prenatal massage with Amber and it was so amazing! It has been a long time since I have felt this relaxed because I am in my third trimester. I would highly recommend this to other expecting mothers!
Loved my massage! Emily is amazing! She was always (not overbearing) checking to make sure I was comfortable.Ill definitely be going back!
