Hayley was completely rude and unprofessional to deal with. Buyer beware if you sign up with a package or membership here! I came for six months of prenatal sessions, was walked through scheduling in person by a staff member to make sure everything was taken care of and booked properly, and then ended up randomly told that I needed to pay out-of-pocket after my session today. I explained to her politely that everything is prepaid for and this doesnt make any sense, to which she effectively told me that I should understand the math and its my problem and not theirs even though she can see in the system who helped me and that they were the ones to book me when all I asked for was to book the sessions I paid for. Why would I book more sessions than were in my package? It literally makes no sense. She refused to be accountable and was not remotely apologetic. Not the kind of experience anyone should be paying a premium for, especially not nine months pregnant. On top of all of this, I now didnt have the opportunity to properly space out my sessions until giving birth, which was the entire purpose of me being a customer here in the first place, and why I personally asked for professional assistance with the booking process, all to be treated this way and stuck footing a bill and having no care for the last month of my pregnancy.I will NEVER be back and am appalled at the customer service here. Thought I would give them a chance due to proximity of where I live, but now I see why everyone I know avoids this place and goes to small, local businesses or private masseuses instead. Hope the owner or manager has the opportunity to see this, as you are losing customers frequently due to the rudeness and incompetence of your desk staff. There was zero attempt made to right what happened today. It costs a lot less to retain a customer than to acquire a new one. I suppose this lesson has been lost upon Hayley, as she very clearly does not care about the customer experience or treat this business like her own in anyway whatsoever.

This was my first visit to Massage Envy. I appreciated the upfront information-gathering on my massage likes/dislikes by both the front desk and therapist. Woodner did a great job, establishing a relaxing mood and applying appropriate pressure. I especially liked that he ended the session with me on my back for a head massage—a brilliant way to help the head clear from the usual stuffiness that accompanies a massage. 5 stars!

Alex is wonderful! She explains what she is observing on my skin and gives me helpful feedback to implement in between sessions. The facial itself is always amazing and rejuvenating. Highly recommend Alex!

Germaine ticks all of the boxes for an impeccable host. not only did she relieve the tension across my body, but we also engaged in the most fruitful interaction i have had with a service provider in months. i am very thankful for her willingness to go a step beyond the basic requirements of her position and connect with guests on a personal level.

Brian asked me if I were having any issues yesterday, and I explained what was going on. He paid extra attention to that area, and the surrounding so I felt like such a better version of myself when I left.

The office located in pompano beach has had great change . George is the manager for this location he has been extremely helpful and kind when I need help with anything. I’m sure it will only get better with him on board. I also would like to give a shout out to Jamie, she has been very good to me, honest, and extremely good with what she does.

I have recently joined Massage Envy, not sure what to expect but looking forward to a “good full body massage”. Out of the 3 massages I have had there so far, not one has been the same. The range of my experience ranges from pleasant to disappointing. My experience has been that each masseuse has their own technic and the adventure varies widely. My last massage was very pleasant and as different from the last 2 as can be. I am still trying to figure out how to navigate the company in order to maximize customer experience.Most recent update: 6 months later.After trying almost every therapist in the Stamford office, I have now figured out who my most compatible massage therapists are; this makes a world of difference.

I highly recommend seeking Erik as a massage therapist, his healing hands and positive energy made my massage by far the best I have had in a while. He listened to what areas were in need of attention and gave just the right amount of pressure, knowing when to ease off on sore areas. Hes professional, very knowledgeable andends the treatment with a cranial sacral treatment and scalp massage that puts his skills over the top.

Review №18

This was the most bizarre, disturbing massage experience of my life.DO NOT GO TO WOODNER if you are a male.He massaged me THROUGH THE SHEET the entire time, never once making contact with his hands. No massage oil, no touching, almost like he would turn to dust if he touch any part of my skin.It was so weird and uncomfortable that I spent the first 20 minutes wondering what the hell was happening, and the next 60 MINUTES trying to figure out if I should run out of the room, or resign myself to endure this strange phenomenon for a whole hour longer. (I chose to stay, and it was perhaps the worst of the two decisions, but I didnt want a confrontation. I had to mentally talk myself out of having a panic attack for the next hour.)The strangest part came later when I told my girlfriend what happened. She looked shocked and said she had the best massage with Woodner the day before!Today when I checked the reviews I was floored to find another male customer also had this SAME EXACT EXPERIENCE with Woodner. John literally described it to perfection: he massages you THROUGH the sheet, giving an incredibly terrible massage which just feels like hes poking you with his fingers, using no massage oil and no skin contact EVER. Its as if he is afraid that other people are contagious.I hate jumping to conclusions, but based on my review, Johns review, and my girlfriends completely opposite experience the day before I have no explanation except that he is sexist and doesnt want to massage men.If they continue to employ someone like this after several customer complaints, I would suggest finding another location altogether.

This was one of the worst experiences I have have ever had. The business manager Colleen did nothing to help me. I cannot explain how disappointed I am in the situation, and how disrespected I feel. Do not get a membership! Nothing is explained and any issue you have will be ignored with a smile.

I don’t usually fill these things out, mainly because I they are not often read or taken seriously; however. I wish someone had written one for me as it would have influenced whom I was seeing, or, at the very least, initiate a discussion at the start of the massage (I own that mistake). All that being said, a very strange occurrence yesterday behooved me to write something this time…My masseur yesterday, Woodner, was a very kind, confident, professional, who ticked all the right boxes as far as what you would expect a good Masseur to be. The issue for me began when he started the massage process, using a sheet with which to massage my body through. I found it slightly odd, but figured it was just the beginning of the massage, and that it would probably help him provide deeper pressure to some areas of the body.That being said, The massage continued, and the sheet never stopped being used. I wondered if it was an issue with me? But I present as a professional with a suit, and was very polite and not talkative. I could not think of any reason where this would be anything other than a regular massage for him. Perhaps it was the fact that I was another male, and he was not comfortable massaging me? But I can’t imagine that he never massaged another male or that it would matter since he is a licensed professional. I know, personally, that in my job, I don’t not have the choice of whom I’m dealing with, but the fact remains that I still have to deal with them. I try to make the best of it, and not let the other person notice my thoughts about them.I tried to think of other reasons why he would use this “sheet”method. Like I said, maybe he was able to provide a deeper massage with the sheet, but there was one point near my neck, where he it was obviously much more difficult and impractical to use the sheet but he still continued to do so, so much so, that I actually felt like he did NOT want his finger to make contact with my neck!I don’t understand this, since he is, a very well built guy who is obviously strong enough to provide a deep tissue massage with or without a sheet. I would imagine, being as strong as he is, and capable, also being a handsome gentleman, and professional, that there was no reason why he wouldn’t have a large clientele.After the massage, I just paid my obligatory 20% tip and hightailed it out of there. I’m not sure I’ll be returning since this time was more out of convenience with location and time. I wouldn’t mind, knowing why that process was used, but all I know is, it’s not the best from me, and, I’m sure it’s not the best for other people.I am sure he had a good reason or it was a fluke occurrence. I will ask around to see if this is a common practice.FOR MASSAGE ENVY: In the meantime, I will continue with Massage Envy, hoping that they hire more people and that it is NOT SO DIFFICULT FINDING AN APPOINTMENT! (This is a hint to the company that is obviously trying to save money at the expense of its customers!). I hope that in the future I will be able to visit my regular location and group of masseurs! Thanks! JG

My experience with Kira this past Sunday was nothing short of amazing. I entered Massage Envy not knowing how extremely stressed I was, and left feeling like the weight of the world was lifted from my shoulders. Kira is an excellent massage therapist. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does and cares a great deal about her clients. Kira asked me helpful questions and in turn provided me with the pressure and techniques which helped me relax even further. I throughly enjoyed my massage. By the end of our session, I could tell she worked very hard to help me release a great deal of tension. Thank you Kira! You rock!!The staff is professional, accommodating, and quite pleasant. I travel all the way from NYC to enjoy this specific location.Way to go Massage Envy North Stamford! Thank you for being worth the trip!!

Overall, just not a good experience. I’m pretty sure the air conditioning was on. I was freezing most the time. The light in the room was really bright and distracting. My masseuse definitely was miserable that he was at work. I felt zero hospitality and actually felt like an inconvenience that I was even there. His nails were long and I could feel then when he was massaging my back, which was uncomfortable. He massaged one of my feet, but not the other(he could have just not messaged them at all at that point), it seemed like he had no idea what he was doing. At the very end, he alarmingly said times up, and then dipped out the room as fast as possible. I’ve been to other massage envy’s, and the staff has always been sweet, warm, inviting. My experience at the Stanford location was the complete opposite.I’m pretty upset I spent money there.

I don’t normally give reviews but I have to do this because of the great experience I had. I had a baby 5 months ago and was in need a message. I went in for 60 min message and Eric did wonders. I so was not expecting the professionalism, awesome hand work. If you desperately need a message, I recommend you ask for Eric. After the message, my soul was so happy, I couldn’t stop laughing. That’s howMuch I felt good.

Toyo’s massages are life-altering.I recently began training heavily again after a lull and woke up yesterday practically immobilized. I was so lucky to find an appointment with Germaine.

Review №65

During my recent visit to Massage Envy, while on a business trip, I had a disappointing encounter with their receptionist, Amaly. Her unprofessional and unwelcoming demeanor created an uncomfortable atmosphere. However, I must mention that the therapist, Toyo, stood out as a true professional and provided a positive experience amidst the disappointment.Amalys behavior as a receptionist fell short of expectations. Her lack of courtesy and dismissive attitude left a negative impression. Instead of fostering a welcoming environment, her actions made me question the quality of service at Massage Envy.On a more positive note, Toyo, the therapist I had the pleasure of receiving a massage from, was exceptional. His expertise and skill were evident, providing a truly enjoyable and relaxing experience. Toyos professionalism and positive energy were a stark contrast to the disappointing service I received from Amaly.While I had reservations about returning to Massage Envy due to Amalys behavior, Toyos excellent service leaves me hopeful for a better experience in the future. It is my sincere hope that Massage Envy addresses the concerns regarding their receptionists conduct, ensuring a consistently positive environment for all customers.In conclusion, my visit to Massage Envy was marred by the unprofessional and unwelcoming behavior of their receptionist, Amaly. However, Toyos outstanding service as a therapist provided a glimmer of positivity amidst the disappointment. I encourage the management to address the issues with their receptionist and uphold the high standard set by talented professionals like Toyo.

Review №81

I have been a regular for facials with Olena for over 2 years and she gets a five star rating!However, the High Ridge location franchise is less than accommodating to memberships that have a high accumulation of paid sessions. I requested a one month pause in assistance to catch up using the the 4.5 paid/reserved sessions. I was given the option to freeze my membership with no access to the accumulated paid sessions, or increase my accumulation to more than 6 sessions and put a pause on the account. The pause would convert to a $20.00 per month charge for use/access to the account.Not good customer service, whatever the policy is.An owner should be more customer oriented than preaching to a policy that is essentially penny wise and pound foolish.A simple one month reprieve would have been much wiser on her part.

I’ve been coming to massage envy for 2 years now. I’ve had multiple employees work with me on facials, massages and rapid tension release. The business communicates effectively about their policies and booking appointments. The location is very clean and tidy with a private lot for parking. COVID-19 screenings are done virtually so you can quickly come inside for your service and spend minimal time at the front desk.I recently visited to have the rapid tension relief service with Catherine. She is certified and takes her time listening to my concerns and working on the affected areas. She is very gentle and has a good approach for making my achy body comfortable for treatment. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get those stiff muscles worked on she’s excellent at detecting problem areas and providing insight on improvement.

I’ve now seen Kira for a couple of years and she has been a transformative force in my life. In addition to having an exceptional understanding of her craft, she has an extraordinary sense of exactly what her clients need (e.g. specific focus areas, recommendations for enhancements - like scented essential oils - without any pressure). She also gave me the most muscle & tension melting hot stone massage of all time.

Review №99

The massage therapists are great. Especially Germaine. She is strong, professional and knows how to use deep pressure to receive tension.My issues are with the management and the upselling that occurs in the treatment room for facials. Without being informed of extra charges, alternatives are offered. After the fact, you are billed 2 sessions (if you have a membership) or upcharges. This is unethical and has happened twice.For example, I call to ask how many sessions I was charged for a particular appointment. She responds you have two remaining sessions. That doesnt answer my questions.... I ask again... after some stumbling, you were charged two sessions for the facial bc it was an advanced treatment. Should I not have been told at the time of check out that this was the case??? Even more so, I should have been informed BEFORE agreeing to the service in the treatment room.Unethical and worse so, when confronted, the management gets defensive and rude and blame me... the customer... for not understanding... oh no, I do understand.... and I see how you are doing business....It is unfortunate bc Germaine is amazing.

I went in to see my regular therapist with some specific problem areas. After listening to what Ive been putting my body through recently, he performed a balanced, thorough massage that addressed my needs in one hour. Thank you, Woodner, for being consistently professional and responsive. See you in a couple weeks!

I received a massage from Catherine after my mom recommended her to me. I had heard great things, but I feel like even the description didn’t come close to how relaxing the experience was. I always felt like I could ask for anything even though I didn’t have to. If you make your way to ME, I suggest that you choose her!

Massage Envy North Stamford, Asher, and Anthony have all made me feel very safe and comfortable coming in for treatments during the coronavirus pandemic.

Massage envy is now open. They were sorely missed (pun intended) while closed for covid. They are back, taking precautions for your safety and providing the same great service as before.Morgan was excellent on this visit and Asher is always a solid option if you can get on his schedule.(Busily guy, worth the wait) Enjoy your down time with an exceptional hour or more massage. Treat yourself and relax while they make sure your safety is taken care of

Always professional, always friendly and more than cooperative when booking and changing appointments when needed.Great services, the 90 min facials are wonderful, and the massages are so relaxing.Olena is an amazing aesthetician, and my skin is so much better than when I began facials with her!The microdermabrasion service is excellent, and I very much enjoy massages with Moira and look forward to all my sessions at ME.Yesterday I had a great massage with Moira. She is my go to masseuse. I always feel so much looser and with less tightness. It’s a great feeling. Thank you Moira...see you again soon!

Massage Envy is a nice place to go to, to receive professional massages and facial services. These massage therapists and estheticians are very well trained before, during, and after their career at Massage Envy and that is why I can trust that Ill be in good hands. I have been there many times and although I am not an official member, I still get the same respect and courtesy being a guest. The North Stamford location has appointments available depending on whether or not you book with advanced notice. The front desk go above and beyond to make you feel welcomed. My esthetician, Gaya, is my go to gal for my Mens facial. She is kind, informative, and very relaxing. More can be said, but I think I have summed it up. Cannot wait for my next appointment!

As a regular member, I have had time to experience many therapists styles and have found two that I consider my regular therapists.This place is set up for people who are seeking a regular massage and will schedule your visits out 6+ months in advance, so you get the time slot and therapist you want. For the price, I find this particular Massage Envy a great deal and I will continue to return for more sessions!

Massage envy has done a great job of adapting to pandemic conditions. It has been great to have this oasis to deal with stress and also know that I am safe and they are taking all of the necessary precautions. Olena is the most talented facial aesthetician I’ve had in all of my years of getting facials at various locations and it’s great how easy it is to book with massage envy, and how well they communicate.

Review №133

I have gotten massages at this branch and received wonderful service. The employees have always been friendly and my parents swear by their massages. However I had such a frustrating experience with my first ME facial that I felt wrong not saying something.I had a facial with Mignon, who told me as soon as I lied down on the table that I was going to need to extend my appointment because she had so much work to do (on my acne). Although I wasn’t excited about the extra fee it would cost me (because I was there using hours that were Christmas gifts and had expected to receive a free service), I didn’t say anything. However I ended up sitting in the chair for an hour and a half in pain as she extracted my face and listed to me all of the products I had to buy when she was finished. To top off the time, the mask she put on my face dripped into my eye after she left the room, and I was left trying to clear it out and hoping it wasn’t doing any damage. My stamina ran very low and I left feeling swollen and exhausted. This feeling isn’t new to me in facials, as beauticians always love popping my acne, and I’ve left salons with a red face every other time. However when I saw the state of my face the next morning I was mortified. I have painful bruising between my eyebrows and open cuts all over my cheeks, the worst ones in places where I didn’t have any noticeable breakouts walking into the appointment. Knowing my skin, these will turn into dark scars that will stick around for weeks with care, if not months.I am not questioning the beauticians skill or craft, and this kind of treatment may work on other skin types, but in my opinion if you have to squeeze a bump so hard that it rips so much of the skin open, you should not be popping that spot.Like I said, Massage Envy is wonderful for massages, hence the 3 stars. But take this as a lesson, if you feel uncomfortable or apprehensive about a treatment, speak up! It’s your skin and your body, and that’s not something to take lightly.

Though some mourn the advent of corporate massage franchises, I applaud it - even as a past massage therapist. They fill a very needed gap for market for both consumer and employee, and I would hope that they have a top tier pay scale for their best therapists, because they have them, if you try a few out. Some current hits at the Stamford office - Germaine, Anthony and Woodner.

Review №168

An overwhelming lack of availability for any therapists who are worth it. They are quick to take your money but not to provide services. They hounded me to reinstate my account as COVID is ending but have no therapist available to deliver the services for the multiple months that they already owe me. To make matters worse - they charge you extra $ to go elsewhere in their network or gift to a family member. Would think that post COVID as businesses struggle there would be more focus on customer service but nothing has changed. There are plenty other local places that are nicer and easier to work with. Buyer beware! (To the proprietor: no need for your canned response.)
