I moved out to the west coast and I miss my massges with Joel. He does get a sense of your body and where you need more focus which I appreciate. I personally like strong pressure but Joel has a good balance of strength and gentleness. Its a fun environment so expect different music more than the traditional Zen/Yoga type of meditation music. read more

Please remove "acupuncture" from your offerings. It saves people time. I've just called inquiring about acupuncture and (no worries) the person was confused, rightfully. Apparently it's been years since you offered that. Please remove. read more

Had an amazing deep tissue massage with Mercedes. She was a complete professional who was a real expert in her field. I've received massages for almost 3 decades and she was the best I've ever had. She got to the root of my pain and discomfort in ways I've never had a masseuse administer. Can't wait to go back. Hot stones were a great added touch. read more

E-motions Sports Massage is THE BEST! I went in months ago with a sports injury (an old shoulder tweak) and after several treatments here I no longer have any pain. When you walk in, it's instantly inviting. The colors and lighting are warm and I liked the music in the waiting area. They also have a cool little rotating retail section with soaps, teas, and all sorts of fun stuff. I go in monthly and am always getting emails with deals and specials. If you need a good massage that will actually help you check this place out! read more

Was really impressed with the sports massage I got here. Denielle did a great job of helping me gain back my range of motion after an injury from picking up my not so little baby by stretching and massaging my muscles. Super professional and knows what she's doing and I'm looking forward to my next massage read more

I gave 1 star because I can't give a 0. I had 5 cryoskin sessions and didn't lose any inches. Do yourself a favor and DON'T do it! They love to take your money but don't deliver the goods! Rachel lied to me saying I'd lose X amount of inches and then when that didn't happen she changed her story. I got sucked in. Do yourself a favor and don't fall for the smoke and mirrors they're selling! Also trying to schedule is very difficult. Twice I showed up and couldn't get in because the door was locked and waiting 10 mins. Twice I sat in the waiting room and waited because the person before me was very late and they took her anyway and then made me wait. My time is valuable too! I would never recommend this place or cryoskin. read more

So impressed and glad I found Mercedes! First off, this is not a "oh that feels nice" massage, it is massage THERAPY. Mercedes is very knowledgeable about massage, muscles, and integrating different methods for your specific healing. I have been having a lot of back pain that I have been going to PT for that has not been getting better. I feel like she was able to give me a different perspective than just strengthening the weak muscles, and told me a variety of things I could do at home to help in my recovery. I've already booked another appointment! read more

I've been going to E-motion for massages for a couple of years and I would recommend them for anyone. I started getting massages to deal with back pain and muscle soreness, but I kept going for the health benefits. Mercedes has developed a unique methodology, that all of the massage therapists follow, to make sure everyone's needs are carefully assessed and considered. Even though it's in an office building, they've made the space really calming and comfortable. read more

Mercedes, IS truly giving and understanding of your needs and is able to articulate what is happening in your body. For an athlete this is incredibly important. I saw her for my back and she restored a lot of movement in both my shoulders. I felt stronger than ever when I next trained. Does not get much better!!! read more

I feel like I hit the jackpot when I found Mercedes with a Groupon, and I can't believe I haven't done a review before now. I came in with a bad knee that had me all out of whack, and was looking for a one-off massage to get some of the kinks out. Mercedes took time to listen to what was hurting, then found places that I didn't even know were tight/causing my pain. She's given me strategies to help out with my problem areas between massages. In addition to being a well-trained massage professional, she's an interesting and kind person. I really can't recommend Mercedes highly enough! read more

I usually buy massage groupons because I'm on a limited budget, and I hope for a halfway decent massage. But this exceeded my expectations by 100%. I have had a lot of massages in the past, but this is one of the best I've ever had! If you're looking for a fancy spa massage, this isn't the place for you. But if you want an amazing experience, book with Mercedes. As other reviewers have says, Mercedes integrates stretching & many different massage techniques to best heal the body. She used deep tissue techniques to work out my knots, but she also used Thai massage techniques to stretch out the problem areas that were most likely the cause of the knots. Truly amazing! Note: the sign on the building & door is for a chiropractic practice because she rents the space from him. read more

Merecedes, Joel and the whole team at E-Motion Sports Massage are wonderful! They cater well to whatever ails you, and have great add-ons to get the most out of your massage. I've been coming for years off and on, and they really are the best. read more

Ive had two massages from them, both great but trying to get in contact with anyone for minor questions or call backs is like pulling teeth, not worth the hassle for me. read more

What a horrible horrible place! They never pick up their phones, it's impossible to get an appointment. They barely have anybody in their system available to be booked with. Super unprofessional. The massage chairs are so old and hard, NOT comfortable at all. Their rates are SO high, $100 for a massage for such a disgusting place? Go spend your money somewhere else where they have hot stones, acupuncture, and much more relaxing rooms I heard bad verbal reviews from this place before, and now I know for sure it's BAD!! Stay away!! read more

Love the studio and especially Rachel. I do monthly massage sessions with her and I have noticed that my body is craving to come more often because every time I visit I feel amazing both physically and mentally. I drive long distances and she's the only one who can help me to recover after road trips. read more

I would like to do a shout out to Danielle at E-motion Sports Massage. She does a great job. I point out where my problem areas are and she hones right in on them. I highly recommend this studio and Danielle is awesome. If you go to massage for actual pain and stress management she can and will help ! Jo Schiavone read more

Fabulous Place. Been going there for about 5 years first for massage and now massage and Cryoskin treatments. Mercedes, the owner, is a great business woman was my massage therapist for a few years...excellent. Danielle is now my massage therapist and she is very knowledgeable and does massage with stretching. Very competent. Rachel who gave me 1 massage as a fill-in was great and she is now doing my Cryonskin Treatments. This a great procedure for body slimming. In general is a great place for treatment and service. read more

Went for my first massage there today and have to say it was wonderful. Was a gift from my partner thru groupon, so i was a bit skeptical. I always assume groupon stuff to be shady at best. Place is located in a very old building in Everett, but the inside of the establishment was very nice and clean and my massage therapist Thomas, was extremely polite and professional and did an awesome job. Would definitely go back. read more

I've been looking for the best and safe place to get a Massage! And I found it here at E-motion Sports Massage. I'm a dancer and runner so my legs are always sore, but thanks to this place, I'm feeling way better after every workout!! You muscle will thank you if you come get the best Service. I had a Deep Tissue Massage, and It was the best feeling I've ever felt! All the tension out, just perfect relaxation for my muscle and my overall body and mind. The room was perfect with LED light, very welcome, nice relaxing sound in the background!! It's just Perfect place to get a Massage!! Better than anywhere else!! And it's Worth every Dollars!! read more

I found Emotion through a recent Groupon--I booked a couple of sports massages for after the marathon. However, when I found myself with a back injury about 5 weeks before the marathon, I decided that I would try a massage at the recommendation of my husband and a physical therapist. Since I already had planned to do a massage with Mercedes, it made sense to book with her for this one, too. Let me just say...wow. Mercedes took the time to listen to my problem and the steps I had already taken to try to fix the issue on my own and with other care providers. She outlined how she would do the massage and how it would help. Afterwards, I felt better than I had in weeks! She also had suggestions for how I could keep my back feeling better after the massage. Really, really great experience. I am looking forward to my next visit! read more

Five stars hands down. I have been going for a while and cannot believe I never wrote a review! Mercedes & her staff are amazing people. They've always helped a lot with back pain, shoulder tightness, headaches and all-over sports massage therapy. read more

Came in with a Groupon for a massage. My therapist was Rachel, and while she did a great job easing my muscle aches, I am taking away two stars for difficulty scheduling a visit and for unsatisfactory customer service. When I arrived, Rachel spent quite a bit of time complaining about their problems with Groupon, and made me feel awkward by telling me that I should not have been able to qualify for this visit since it was my second within a year. She then gave me a 45-min. massage (while the Groupon was for 60min.), even though there was no customer waiting when we were done. read more

Have had some good experiences with the therapists here, however scheduling and trying to communicate with the office is very difficult. Not worth the hassle. read more

Overall experience with E-Motion is fantastic. The business is very easy to find and park. Everyone is very warm and welcoming. All the therapists are very experienced which makes me feel confident that I can get an appointment in short notice! The rooms are "no frill" but they are extremely clean and comfortable. And, their prices are excellent which is a bonus. I feel so lucky to have found Mercedes. She's a is phenomenal massage therapist and is extremely committed to long term health of her clientele. My physical well-being (LT chronic pain) has improved with each visit. read more

Really impressed with Mercedes. I've had quite a few massages, and Mercedes seemed exceptionally deft and knowledgeable. I will absolutely be going back. read more

David is a fabulous therapist who takes as much time as needed to really work trouble areas. His deep tissue massages are intense in the best way possible and gives really helpful stretching tips on how to keep the muscles from going back to their bunched up state in between sessions. Can't recommend him enough. read more

Update: Earnest, whom I rave about below, has left E-Motion. I can't say enough good things about Earnest Gildon. First, he communicates. He didn't just jump into a routine massage - he asked what was going on with my body and how I use and abuse it, and he worked on what I most needed rather than just going through a script. He used techniques from Thai massage to give me more mobility in my hips than I've had in ages. I stood up from his table feeling an inch taller than when I walked in. He's one of the most skilled massage therapists I've ever encountered, and he has the strength to work into deep and recalcitrant muscles. I am a fan. read more

Probably the best sports I have got.Mercedes has a great knowledge of sports massage therapy and works on the target areas and you get good results read more

I found out about the place through Groupon. I was psyched to get such a great deal for a 60-minute sports massage, because my budget is tight but training for my first marathon was rough on my body, and my coach recommended massages at least once a month. I went on a Friday afternoon and had trouble finding street parking, so I called from my car and they told me about the free lot behind their building. The building is a 1980s-esque professional building, but their space is clean and modern. I checked in and was asked if I wanted water or the restroom. I did need to use the restroom, and when I came back, Brian was ready for me. He asked me what brought me in so I told him about marathon training and a nagging hamstring issue that I've done PT for. He said he would focus on my lower body and lower back. I awkwardly asked if I was supposed to disrobe - I had meant to wear gym shorts. I'd never had a "sports massage" before so I thought it was more like PT. He didn't make me feel stupid for asking and said I could strip down to my knickers. Fine with me! Once I was under the sheet and blanket, he began the massage, reminding me to tell him if the pressure was ever too much. Honestly, my IT band are always tender and I found myself wincing a few times when he was working on those and my "love handle" area, but I knew pain was temporary and this was going to help me in the long run, so I didn't ask him to ease up. Afterward, he told he has grown men whine and yet I didn't flinch once. Yay me! In all seriousness, the massage was everything. My legs felt loose and ready to go on my long run the following morning, and it was a relaxing, peaceful hour for which my body and my mind thank Brian. It's pretty out of the way for me, but I've recommended it to a few people and might go back if I ever find the time again. read more

Mercedes is professional, knowledgeable and gives a great massage! She is very nice and knew exactly what areas I needed worked on. I will be going back! read more

I felt very safe with Mercedes. Her attitude and presence made the experience meaningful for me. She started out with a myofascial release, but saw that the tension in my body was so deep that it needed extra love. She was very in tune with my body and seemed to sense the parts that needed the most attention. She found a spot of tension that released a lot of pent-up tension, and caused a wave of emotion and tears, which she guided me through. Very talented masseuse! Highly recommend for those not only looking for a simple massage, but for a healing experience as well. read more

Yuri was amazing!! I have had bad lower back pain for months and today I left feeling pain-free for the first time in a very long time. She also took the time to tell me what stretches to do to keep the pain from coming back. I tried E-Motion Massage because of a groupon deal but they have definitely gained a new client. The office is clean and the staff is very professional. I even got a flat tire on the way to my appointment and they helped me reschedule for later in the day without batting an eye. Great experience! read more

E-motion was not only accommodating of my short time schedule, but also phenomenal in their services. I came in to relax for my swim meet and I left very impressed. Giovana was great at finding and relaxing my problem areas, and on top of that she was personable and professional. I have had several different massages before but none compared to the treatment I got at E-motion! read more

Mercedes is fantastic! This was by far the best sports/deep tissue massage I've ever had. As an endurance runner, it's often difficult to keep my muscles loose and ready to race. Soreness and tightness in my legs has been increasingly problematic for me as my mileage increases. Relaxation massage is nice but Mercedes provides truly functional massage therapy, including stretching and recommendations for staying healthy. She was very much in tune with what my body needed and addressed both the issues we talked about prior to the massage as well as problem areas she found during the session. I walked out feeling twenty pounds lighter, better than I felt in weeks. I plan to make massage with Mercedes a regular part of my training regimen! read more

Hands down the BEST massage therapist I've ever been to (and I've been to a lot in the Boston area). Mercedes has the ability to tune into your body and focuses on the areas that need healing most. She's the best, I will never see anyone again. read more

David is fantastic! I have the worst knots in my neck and shoulders from hours at a desk and being naturally tense. he finds them all and works each of them out. He's a magician i swear. I come in, barely able to turn my neck and I leave with near owl-like abilities. That's not to mention all the other tension he fabulously works away for me. From deep tissue, to swedish to simple stretching, I love this man and what he does. Did i mention he's a super nice and funny guy too? All also true. If you're looking for someone that's both tough and gentle (can that be done, you ask? YES, YES IT CAN), Dave's your guy. read more
