The location is very quaint and inviting, and there's also a chiropractor and esthetician in the same building! I was warmly greeted by Leon, who was amazing! We went over the massage I signed up for and I can say that I really enjoyed the deep tissue with hot stones as an add-on. Leon did a fantastic job with my massage and was extremely informative regarding educating me on my problem areas and how to address them, and I will most definitely be returning for a massage again soon.

I'm not sure if you can say a bad thing about a good massage. I've been going to Massage Envy for…read morealmost a decade. I've been loyal to a few therapists during my time there (until they leave) and have loved their work. Monica is my current therapist and I'm not sure if this page could fit all the wonderful things. I've had back issues since college and was hurt additionally at the chiropractor. I was hesitant to go or do anything that could leave me in more pain. My working theory was that massage would be a gentler option. This was definitely the right path. I'm sure when I leave Monica is exhausted from all the surprise knots my back has in store, but she has always done an amazing job. I personally require deep tissue and she's the girl for the job. Massage Envy has an array of therapists for each level of need so there is someone for everybody. For my purposes, Massage Therapy (and Monica for that matter) are essential to me living a less painful existence.

I don't usually write reviews, but this one is 100% deserved…read more Coming from San Francisco, I've tried plenty of places that call themselves "therapeutic," but most of the time you leave feeling good for the day... and the underlying issue is still there. I was visiting family in Connecticut and had tweaked my back pretty badly. I booked with Sammi Therapeutic Massage hoping for some relief and was fully prepared to pay top dollar without expecting much beyond temporary comfort. What I got was completely different. This was not just a massage -- this was actual healing work. She took the time to understand where my pain was, explained what she was doing (because I asked), and truly got in there and worked through the problem. The pain I came in with? Gone. If I had more time in CT, I would've gone back again just to continue the work and honestly get better sleep. She clearly knows the body and her craft. It's a private, by-appointment setup with a single table, and every second of it was worth it. From the comfortable setup to how she incorporated hot stones and intuitively read exactly what my body needed -- it felt intentional and effective. I'm genuinely so glad I didn't end up at another "typical" therapeutic spot that just goes through the motions. I'm sure there are other good places out there, but I don't see myself trying them anytime soon -- I feel like I found my person. If you're looking for a massage that actually fixes your knots and pain (not just temporarily relaxes you), this is your spot. I'd honestly consider flying back once a month for this.

My daughter has some shoulder pain and came away from the massage experience saying that it was the best thing ever! I had read a review from someone who thought the experience was traumatizing and painful. I was a little worried but our experience was super. Yes, when she does a special deep tissue massage she hits painful spots, but I think the treatment was very helpful. Sammi is Chinese and I have had a yoga intstructor in China who did some of the same moves and made me wince from time to time. I highly recommend Sammi for a great massage!

After my mommy makeover surgery, I was so swollen. I had never heard of lymphatic drainage before,…read morebut I knew massage could help with post-op recovery. I was incredibly uncomfortable, so I searched my local area for someone who offered this type of treatment--and that's how I found Melissa. I went in for one massage and walked out an hour later feeling noticeably more comfortable. The following day, I was able to move around so much better. When I first saw her, I still had two drains in and felt very vulnerable, but she was incredibly professional, gentle, and reassuring. Her practice is clean, comfortable, and calming. She wore gloves to ensure my incisions were protected from any potential risk, which made me feel even more at ease. After that first session, I immediately booked the series of five. I went twice a week for two weeks, then once during the final week. After not seeing her for about a week and a half, I reached out again and invested in five more sessions. The massages are absolutely worth it. I feel more comfortable, less swollen, and I can truly see the progress in my body. I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone going through the post-op recovery process. She has been an incredibly important part of my healing. My surgeon didn't think the massages were all that important at first and even talked me out of them, but I genuinely believe some surgeons don't realize how much of a difference they make. From someone who has experienced the benefits firsthand--trust me, it is so worth it. I highly recommend her!
