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.

If I could give Mackenzie 10 stars I would. I got a VERY long overdue massage last night. It was…read moreawesome you could schedule massages past 7pm on a Friday. I met Mackenzie, filled out some paperwork, chatted about problem areas and she got to business. I like that you don't choose deep tissue, sweedish, hot stone, etc, but that the massage is customized to your individual needs. I had a combination of all of the above used in my massage. Apparently I had knots in my neck, back near shoulders, lower arms and a tight butt (i'll take that as a compliment! LOL). She took the time to work out each and every knot telling me that if anything was too much to let her know. It was very intense to work them out but not too much but all worth it as man do I feel 100% relaxed today. I don't think there was any part she missed. For me the neck massage was worth the amount, i didn't realize i was so tense up there. She covered arms, neck, legs, back, butt, feet, hands, scalp.... it was amazeballs. When I was checking out, I had mentioned that I travel a lot for work and she told me they often have same day appts available if I ever just have a couple of free hours. So check this place out! Get Mackenzie and tell her I sent you! We will both get a discount! Oh and also if you check in on Yelp you get 10% off!!!!

David is a pro - very soft-spoken but he was super receptive to tuning the pressure in my massage.

There was no paperwork, no green tea, lemon water, or products for sale. Judy took me right in and did a great job of working on my problem areas. I requested deep tissue. I'm a quilter so my shoulders & neck were very, very tight. Not when I left. She did an excellent job, probably one of the top 10 I've had including at several spas in Europe, Canada and Japan. She used several different techniques and periodically checked with me regarding pressure etc. They don't play music, which was fine with me. There was no upselling. The price was very fair, and I will definitely book in with her again. Based on my massage experience, I'd like to try on of their facials as well. They also have a loyalty program.
