Came for a stress relieving massage. I was seen by Lizzie and she did an excellent job. I got the lavender aromatherapy with the complimentary hot towels, I definitely felt pampered. The spa was clean, the tables were nice and the front desk was helpful. read more

Nicole was very thorough and attentive. I had severe low back pain. She was very attentive to me feelings. Will go again

Clean and quiet. Staff is friendly. The form you fill out is standard and they truly pay attention to it. Some places seem to do it as a formality which for me felt like a waste of time. Here, Noelle, asked follow up questions and respected my request of a minimal talking session. She had some advice for me post massage as well. I can't wait to return in a few weeks. Thank you, Breckels, thank you, Noelle. read more

Exceeded my expectations. Amanda administered an amazing massage. That alone was 5-star. The establishment itself is clean, inviting, and thoughtful about the details. Yet, what really set it apart for me today was the customer service. I arrived for my much anticipated appointment (looking forward to it for days...) only to discover, I had no appointment. Not sure if it was a glitch in the online appointment software, or operator error on my end. But no matter--I was disappointed. Disappointed in the way you can only be when you think you are in for a blissful hour long massage only to discover--you're not. The owner, Amanda, was incredible; she offered to extend her work day and give me the massage herself. I mean--who does that? Not only an amazingly professional gesture--but kind. SO grateful. And, so relaxed. Will definitely be back. read more

Long time client of Breckels and they are the best! I have used all of the therapist's and they are all fantastic, each has their own method. But I highly recommend Carly, Amanda, Darius, Paige, and Lizzy - all are very gifted read more

Wow. Today was my first massage EVER, and I was extremely nervous/anxious, as I am all the time in new situations- and having a stranger touch me seems really nerve wrecking. However, I was very surprised by how courteous and kind the staff were from the second I walked in, up to the second I left. The massage was perfect, and the therapist (Megan) was fabulous. I can't wait to be back! read more

I love getting massages at Breckels! From the moment I walk in the door I feel relaxed. It may not be a fancy spa, but it's a place where you can get an amazing massage. I have seen Amanda, Carly, and Jennifer and they have all been welcoming and wonderful. They offer couples and prenatal massages as well as individual therapy. I won't go anywhere else. P.S. If you are going in for a prenatal massage, ask about the prego pillow. It completely supports you laying face down -- I almost fell asleep the moment I laid down! read more

I feel awesome after today's massage! I have gone twice now to Breckels and have seen Sandy. She is a total healer. I have been very stressed with a big life transition and was up late last night doing my taxes and my back was in knots. Sandy took the time to really address the tight muscles. It was a GREAT massage. I highly recommend Breckels. Convenient location, good COVID-19 social distancing and practices, and limited (but very helpful) on site parking. read more

I really like this place. I think it's important to note that you need to work with several massage therapists to find the right fit and partnership. It takes a little time. But these folks are great with letting you know what their specialties are and who maybe is better with certain conditions. Once you meet the right therapist, it is blissful. And Breckels has several to choose from. Great bios that were very helpful when making decisions. What I like best: Very welcoming reception Great, expanded hours Many openings-even last minute Web appointments and pre-pay options Wonderful therapists Comfortable and QUIET spaces Massage packages (yay!) read more

I've been meaning to write this for a while. If you're in the Detroit, Windsor, Canada or the Toledo, Ohio area and you're serious about massage or just want a great massage go to Breckel's Massage in Grosse Pointe, MI. The owner has been a massage therapist for thirty years and is very involved with her community. The other therapists are knowledgeable, patient, and cater to each client's need. All of the therapists have been practicing for many years and continue honing their skills and their ongoing massage education. Yes, there are other places to get a massage in the Detroit area. But, there are BIG differences in what you get. Time spent actually receiving a massage: The industry standard is usually 50 minutes or 80 minutes, at Breckel's its 60 or 90 minutes. Believe me there's a lot you can get out of an extra 10 minutes. Environment: You can get a massage elsewhere, like a casino. But do you really want to get a massage, be relaxed and then go out to a smoky, loud, neon lit casino just to get to your car to go home? Doesn't sound very relaxing or healing does it? Money: Yes, there are less expensive options when getting a massage. You can try those chains like Massage Envy or Massage Green, but they tend to hire new therapists right out of school. Some of them can be good therapists too, but more often than not they just don't have enough experience or knowledge to be of use. The therapists at Breckel's continue learning their craft at workshops and classes held all over the state and country. And see above about timing. Are you really getting a cheaper deal when you average the actual time receiving massage? It might be $10 cheaper but it also may be 15-20 minutes less. Remember the old saying- you get what you pay for. In conclusion, if you're serious about getting a good massage, if you value your time and your money, and if you want to feel better - there's only one choice in the Detroit metro area. Breckel's Massage Therapy!!! read more

Not sure where all these 5 star reviews are coming from but they roped me in. Went to see Sandy for a 90 minute massage. She had about 3 moves- got into some of the muscles in my back but my lower back is more sore today (and not in a good way). Arms and legs were worse- just rubbed her hand up and down forever with no actual working of the muscles- not how a real masseuse would have worked on someone . Might be ok for a 30 minute massage but 90 was a complete waste. I left early-won't be back. read more

I've only gone here for one massage, but my masseuse was very professional. I didn't feel rushed and was pleasantly surprised that my massage lasted for the entire time. I've been to other places that charge for an hour but only massage for 50 minutes, taking time from the front end and back end for getting undressed/dressed. Getting the full time paid for enhanced my satisfaction considerably. The atmosphere was tranquil. I plan to return. read more

Yesterday my wife and I went here to start her birthday. We had Cindy and Christina. Both of us left refreshed and relaxed. They were incredibly professional and acommodatjng. They asked specific questions to customize each of our treatments. We even got to chose the type of music and the scent we preferred. We couldn't have asked for better massage therapists and a better environment. If we could afford to see them monthly or more we absolutely would pay, no questions asked. read more

Amanda did an amazing massage! My muscles felt like I was 20 yrs younger, the stiffness, the ache, the tension was gone! The physical work i do, she made the muscleq move with ease The music, atmosphere In her room was awwwwmazing!! I loved it!!! Brought me to our cottage beach in my mind, just with the music,smell warmth of her room! Amanda was great! I don't mind a homey feel, animals are always a nice touch...makes people feel more relaxed read more

I've gone to Unique twice for a one hour massage and she is incredible! She just started working at Breckels but has massage experience from before (and you can tell). She is super sweet and very good. I hate when I go to get a massage and it's an hour and they only massage for 50 minutes. Breckels makes sure the massage is actually a full hour. They're thorough and conscientious. The actual place has a little bit of a weird vibe for me. I think it's just really dark and gloomy in the building. I can't quiet put my finger on it. There's a parking spot in the front that says one hour parking but the people at Breckles says it is fine to park there without putting in any coins (I never have any). read more

Best massage. Amazing value; very reasonable prices for incredible massages. Professional, kind and accommodating staff. Highly recommend.

If you are looking for an amazing massage look no further than Breckles Massage Therapy!! I was a little nervous because I only had one other experience at another facility that was absolutely terrible... but my massage today changed my opinion of massages immediately! Every minute was pure bliss. You can tell that the therapist love what they do and pay attention to every detail. Aches I had before were gone by the end of the hour. My friend who was with me had a prenatal massage said her massage was just as great! Her therapist was able to relieve a headache she had for days along with many more aches and pains of being pregnant! I have never felt more relaxed than I did today! So thank you Breckles and my therapist for changing my mind about massages and I can't wait to come back soon! read more

I saw Sandy twice for my back pain and I think it's the best massage ever. I suffer from constant back pain and seen a number of specialist. Just move from to Grosse Pointe from California and I'm happy I found a message therapist. Thank you read more

Decided to treat myself to a last minute massage and found Breckels was close and had really good reviews. I was able to book online Friday night for a next day appointment...score! I have to say this was the best massage I've ever had. The place was clean, cozy, room was nice and Betsy was phenomenal! The massage was top notch, I was so relaxed after and felt sense of calm and relaxation the rest of my weekend. This will definitely be my go to place from now on, worth every penny! Shout out to Natasha at the front desk, a receptionist can make or break an experience and she was so nice and friendly making clients feel comfortable and welcome! read more

Love this place, I'd give it 6 stars if I could. I've been going for years and years and enjoyed every session. Friendly, homey atmosphere, clean rooms, fresh linens and hot towels, aromatherapy oils if desired, and some of the most talented therapists in southeastern Michigan. If you haven't tried this place yet you're missing out. An hour long massage is a FULL 60 minutes and your therapist will tailor the massage to whatever you want - all you have to do is ask. New and not sure what you want in a massage? Call and they'll help you decide! I'm already looking forward to my next visit. :) read more

I have had 3 massages prior to Breckels from 3 different sources, Breckels was by far the best!

My first visit at Breckels was unforgettable! I am telling you, it was an hour of muscle melting bliss. John worked every muscle of my back with expertise. I left feeling energized and relaxed at the same time..invigorated is the word, really. I would recommend Breckels to everyone! read more

I have been to Breckels 3 times now and i found their massages, rooms, and personnel to be outstanding! I have knots and stiffness in my upper back due to years of strain in my job and dental work. My massage each time by Amanda has left me feeling relief and calm by end of session. I like this is not part of a beauty salon but is nicely put together in a Holistic atmosphere. All geared to comfort of client. The massage room and table were comfortable with my favorite muted sounds in the background. Amanda listens and understands what areas need to be helped. After the session, I liked that they offer you fresh water in a glass to add hydration! I hope Breckels is there for many years yet to come so that as i age i will get the benefit of their expertise! THANK-YOU read more

Had an excellent experience! Everyone was very kind and the atmosphere was relaxing and clean. My massage therapist was wonderful. Would go back in a heartbeat! read more

Outstanding therapeutic massage. I am a senior citizen and have had a lot of surgeries. Amanda is excellent and has some kind of radar that hones right in on my troubled areas. Everyone is kind and friendly and I love the "homey" atmosphere as opposed to the clinical and stark I have felt with some other therapists. I highly recommend this treat for yourself! read more

Just had a Thai Yoga massage with Marta. From the tips of my toes to my face - every muscle group, joint, area of connective tissue - my whole body has been re-energized. A wonderful experience finished off with heartfelt hugs. Already, I'm looking forward to a return visit! read more

I honestly don't know how this place stays in business. I recently had a massage there at the last minute. And the first thing out of my mouth was, "is this someone's house?" There was a huge dog bed in the hallway. The woman told me it was their "therapy dog." I love animals and have been vegan for 20 years, but I don't think any animal should be in a spa or massage clinic. The place reeked of dog and was dirty. There were cardboard boxes lying around. If you want a relaxing spa environment do not go here. The first thing I did was smell the sheets when I was in the massage room. Thankfully they did not smell like dog so I proceeded. The massage itself was decent but the massage therapist could have been more attentive. She asked me if I preferred music or no music, and I stated my preference was "no music." She forgot and turned on the music and I had to remind her of my preference. read more

I recently moved to Michigan and was worried about finding a massage place as good as the one I left behind in my previous town. I am a long-time migraine sufferer, and I have found that many of my migraines are triggered by muscle tension in the upper back, shoulders, and neck. I consider a good masseur someone who knows exactly how to target the areas that are causing the problems and quickly bring about relief. I received just that at Breckels. Megan was amazing and was able to effectively work away the pain in 30 minutes. It was obvious that she was a professional and knew the technique of deep tissue well. She was very receptive to suggestions and was careful to find out exactly why I had come and what I needed. I have had multiple experiences at other establishments where I felt I had paid for a deep tissue massage and got only a weak version of a Swedish massage--if that. I left Breckels feeling that I had gotten more than my money's worth. Sandy and her staff were so gracious and friendly, as well. I will be back. Highly recommended! read more

I have been to Breckels 3 times now. Each time I had a different therapist (you can request a particular therapist but I wanted to try different ones). The setting is comfortable and quiet (an old house it appears). The therapists and staff are kind and welcoming. And the massage therapy is great. They employ good techniques and tailor the massage to your needs. There are some nice touches (haha) such as hot towels. I have been using massage therapy for 18 years in different parts of the country, and Breckels is top notch. read more

A great place.....both a favorite treat for a relaxing massage, and for deep tissue and trigger release. It's quiet & peaceful - and the people are great. Treat yourself! read more

Breckels is the best. I have been going off and on for 12 years and I'm convinced that this has helped me avoid many doctor appointments, meds and even surgical intervention. The therapists are highly trained and can pinpoint the source of the problem and over time do wonders to reduce inflammation and increase mobility -- not to mention reduce pain and stress symptoms. And if you are going through a particularly stressful time and are suffering migraines and other symptoms, these appointments can help you more than you can imagine.You will be treated as a valuable client and you will be amazed how much this helps. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and comfortable. They go out of their way using hot towels, bolsters and pressure treatments and will listen and respond to your feedback. Both my husband and I know that when we go, we can expect positive results. We have lived all over the world but have not found such qualified and knowledgeable therapists. My mother fell down her steps and they helped her so much that she recovered without further intervention. PR, GPP read more
