It's located in a cozy home in the fan. There was easy free street parking right outside. My back had been hurting and after endless chiropractor visits, I figured it was time to start working on the muscles. I booked a 90 minute massage. It was my first time going past the 60 minute mark and I felt relaxed because I wasn't worried about there not being enough time. Hailey was incredible. She listened to my concerns and really helped work out the tension in my back. I had an amazing experience here and I highly recommend it to others.

The Thai massage focused less on deep muscle work and more on lengthening the body and creating space. That being said, I still felt similar or better muscle relief in comparison to my normal massage. Run, don't walk, to get a Thai massage!!! You won't turn back.

Highly recommend. Since I moved to Richmond 5 years ago I have tried around 10 different places and…read more15 different massage therapists. Nothing has compared to Emily at Carytown Massage. My first massage at Carytown Massage was by the owner (accidentally and luckily) and was amazing. I got the monthly subscription because I was so blow away. When I called to make another appointment I was told that he was the owner and he recommended I go to Emily. Since then I have seen Emily numerous times. Every time the experience is amazing. She really does know how to understand what muscles that need attention. After a few Swedish massages I tried a Thai Massage with her and it really was life changing. I can't wait to be able to go back!

I went for a 60 minutes massage. The first thing she did was walk on my back which was extremely…read morepainful on the calf's and thighs. The first 20/30 minutes of the massage was pretty painful. I was finally able to relax during the end (where she was only doing my arms and back).... It was $77.50 (including tax) which I paid at the beginning of the service. I was kinda skeptical because I've never paid upfront for a massage before but whatever... anyways, at the end, another women comes to bring me to the front room. She asks if I wanna leave a tip and I said... sure. I wrote $3 because I was genuinely in pain most of the service. She literally looked at me and goes "it's $10 MINIMUM for a hour" .. excuse me? When is a tip EVER mandatory? & after I write the $3, she grabbed the receipt for me and wouldn't even let me finish writing my total. I asked for it back because I didn't feel comfortable with how she treated me at that moment. I will not be returning. The entitlement is absolutely insane and unprofessional. Plus, the whole place reeks of FEET. I should've left after I noticed but always try to give a chance. Never again.

The best, period. My girlfriend and I have been coming to Aly for a few years now, and it's always…read morean amazing treat and experience. She's extremely knowledgeable, and makes excellent recommendations on the type of massage for you and how to incorporate things in your daily routine to maintain a healthy lifestyle. As far as the massage and technique/pressure is concerned, I'm pretty sure she's psychic because whatever she does is always exactly what my body needs. My recommendation - book early, as Aly's schedule fills up far in advance and she has a strong client base. Unfortunately for me, I live in Northern VA so I have a hard time finding a slot that works for me, but when I see one I certainly jump on it. All it takes is one session with her, after you will realize why Aly's schedule fills up.

To start with; when you walk in - it's a beautiful and a relaxing space. You next sit down and talk…read moreabout where you are having issues. Alyson will confirm that she understood you correctly so that she can address your problem areas with extra time. The whole experience is Fabulous!!!!

Teri has hands down improved my quality of life! I was referred by an orthopedist after incurring a…read morerecent shoulder injury. Teri's expertise and knowledge allowed her to provide a degree of immediate relief after one appointment. I continue to go to Teri once a week, after each appointment I'm discovering a new level of relief. Not only has she addressed the recent shoulder injury, but we are also addressing AND resolving muscular issues as a result of years of athletics and physical work. I will continue to go to Teri for maintenance once we work through existing issues. I highly recommend Teri for her professionalism, knowledge and the results she has achieved when many other providers over the years have fallen short. Thank you so much Teri for improving my quality of life!!!

I also prefer really deep pressure, which they were pretty good about. I wish it was actually deeper pressure, but I didn't ask so that was on me. Overall, amazing massage. Just a heads up, they do charge a fee for using your credit card, so I would pay with cash instead. I didn't read that anywhere on their website, so I may have missed it, and it was quite a surprise.
