Best deep tissue massage of my life with Lindsey. Her strong hands found aches I didn't know I even had. I haven't felt this good in years! would give higher than 5 stars if I could! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would on top of $75 a month they harass the hell out of you and WILL DRAIN YOUR ACCOUNT for their money, doesn't matter if you need to pay a bill or anything. They won't let you cancel so forget that, I got 1 massage from them haven't had the time to get another, any time I make an appointment something comes up. This place does not care about you. They just want your money. read more

I scheduled a facial for my friend and she told me about her experience. I wasn't pleased hence the reason for this review. This was her first time getting a facial so she didn't know what to expect. She said Chrissa was fine which is what's important but her experience with everyone else not so much. After she tips her, the other women that worked there asked about gratuity although they saw her pay her. Then they kept asking her repeatedly to be a member and asking why not today. I've been a member for over a decade but had someone done that to me, I wouldn't have joined. I suggest providing a better customer service experience to all the guests -especially new ones. You can be persistent without sounding like a used car salesman. Not to mention, the lady who checked her in commented on her shoes. read more

I've been coming to this same location for a while ! Super welcoming environment and Lindsey ! Let's not talk about her ! She is amazing! I've been frequently coming to her for 60 min massages and I feel amazing after every time ! I don't feel like she rushes at all , she takes her time and really tries to get those kinks out ! I have a membership there and it's so worth it ! If you're looking for a place to unwind and relax this is your place to go ! You truly won't regret it ! 10/10 ! read more

Great massage by Lindsey, though it was supposed to be $125 for a 60 minute massage. It turned out to be a 42 minute massage, which equates to over $155 per hour... read more

I have been coming here for a long time now. They have made a lot of great improvements over the last few years and it is an amazing place. A few years back, I had trouble making appointments and the ladies at the front desk were unfriendly. This has definitely improved a lot and they people they have there now are the absolute best! My massage therapist is Candie and I HIGHLY recommend her! Especially with the new CBD cream, it was the best massage experience. She is super friendly and really focuses on problem areas to relieve my pain. My facial therapist is Christina and she is amazing! She has provided me great advice for my face and my skin has never looked/felt so great. Every experience with her has been relaxing and informative. Anyone who had a negative experience before 2021, I highly recommend giving them another chance! read more

Today I had a wonderful massage at Massage Envy on Niagara Falls Blvd. Nicole was my massage therapist, and she did an excellent job of relieving my neck and shoulders of tension. She was quiet and listened to my requests for more pressure, and more time spent on my neck. I would recommend Nicole to anyone seeking a relaxing, therapeutic massage. I reviewed my experience with Lindsay, who was lovely. She presented all the services that Massage Envy offers, and asked if I would be interested in learning more. I declined and was not made to feel any sales pressure at all. All in all, a very good experience. I would definitely return. read more

I've had a membership to Massage Envy for years, back when I lived in Missouri. I cancelled it when I moved to Buffalo because Massage Envy wasn't here then, but immediately scheduled an appointment when they franchised in WNY. I have to say I renewed my membership all because of my masseuse, Candy. She's amazing! I'm a deep pressure/deep tissue kind of girl, and she puts me through the meat grinder. I hurt the next day where she works me over, but I'm headache free and feel good for the 2 weeks following it. Plus she and I have great conversations, we see eye to eye on a lot of topics, so it's nice to talk to her about current events, philosophy, etc. Totally, totally worth it. I've been going to her for years and will continue doing so, she's my girl! That we get along so well is completely matter of opinion, so I'm happy we clicked and she's such an excellent deep pressure masseuse! The location is easy(ish) to get to and the interior is alright. The front desk staff seem to rotate a lot, but they're often pleasant to me. My husband keeps losing the masseuses he likes, so he gets frustrated with that, but when he does come across another masseuse that's good, the massages are such stress relievers he keeps going back. Plus his membership is discounted since I have one, so it's a better value on his end. For an affordable and recurring massage, I love this place, but let's be honest: I'm so dedicated to it because of Candy! read more

I have been coming to massage envy for almost a year now and absolutely love the staff. The massage therapists are amazing and make you feel incredible. read more

DO NOT ENROLL IN A MEMBERSHIP! DO NOT SIGN A CONTRACT! But if you do be prepared to need a doctors excuse to get out of it. Customer service is absolutely terrible and the massages are crap too. I don't know how this place even exists. You're much better off paying more money and going somewhere else. By the time you upgrade your 60 min massage to a 90 min massage and leave a tip it would be the same cost at some other place that's much better. Also, you never get a full 60 or 90 min massage. Usually ends up about 50 min and 80 min. Save your money and stress! read more

This is a horrible establishment that has terrible customer service. I was a member at another location about 7 years ago and cancelled for how much of a rip off it is. I got a gift certificate for Christmas for $50, I call to book a massage for an hour and the woman over the phone tells me that she sees I used to be a member but it will only be $50 for an hour. I got here tonight and I was told "oh sorry she was new and it's $90", no warning when they clearly knew without me asking yet failed to notify me before the appointment. I get here and you surprise me with another $40 charge. On top of it, this is a chain massage parlor and you are charging $90 for a massage when I can get a better massage at a local establishment for $40-$50 for an hour? This place is a joke, their customer service is terrible and while I am supposed to be here to relax, I am only more stressed and annoyed because of them. If you get a gift card, sell it, trash it, whatever you do- don't bother. Go on Groupon and buy a massage or go to massage therapeutic arts on north for great service with a great massage and reasonable pricing. read more

The price is right and you feel relaxed when you leave. I have been going for a year now and I enjoy my sessions. Katie is my massage therapist and she is amazing. She customizes my session to where I am feeling the stress. She uses the right amount of pressure and really works the knots out. Katie checks in throughout the session to make sure the pressure is good and things are feeling ok. I would recommend this place to anyone. I go once a month but you can customize it to your needs and preference. They have many therapist on site with different availability so they will fins someone who best suites you. Keep up the great work Katie! read more

I am giving this 5 stars based only on my massages with Maria SanGeorge. She is a great massage therapist. I have been getting massages for years and she is the best. I go every other week for a 1 massage. Because of my job, I really need it. So b/c I go so often the membership is a great deal for me. I do however hate the fact that it is a chain and the people at the desk are so pushy to up sell services, etc. so whenever I refer anyone there I just warn them about that. And another positive note, they have great hours and it is very clean. read more

See all

So frustrated with this place, can never get an appt, then because I had two seperate bank cards changed because of security fraud and come in for appt only to tell me they cancelled my appts because card was not going through. Maria, the front desk clerk was nice but this place is so annoying, will be looking elsewhere, She on me for not supporting a real local business read more

i called today for an appointment - august 5th. the first available appointment was the end of september. are you kidding me? seriously? i have 20 + massages to use and can never get in there. they never have open appointments for loyal, paying customers because they do too many specials for free massages to new customers instead of taking care of customers who have been members for years and years. do not join or go to the class action lawsuit to get out of your membership. read more

I'm a new member to Massage Envy; I came for a massage about a month ago because of my chronic migraines. They were pretty bad over the summer and I was desperate to find a holistic way to treat them. I got an hour-long full body massage by Nicole M. and she found a ton of tension & stress at the base of my skull in my neck. She was extremely knowledgeable and after the massage there was a noticeable difference in my upper body. I felt MUCH more flexible and relaxed. I decided to get the monthly membership to see if regular massage therapy could decrease or eliminate my migraines. Today I returned for my second massage and Heather was amazing. She focused on my upper body and talked me through the areas where I had the most tension. Since my first massage, I've only had two migraines, and only because I skipped meals and my blood sugar got pretty low. And they were very easy to treat with over the counter pain meds. This is a HUGE improvement from 3 - 5 migraines per week. I'm very excited to see how regular massage therapy helps me in the long run. If you're looking for the whole spa experience with chenille robes and champagne, you won't find that here. But you can get quality massage therapy for a reasonable price. I'm very happy with both experiences and I look forward to my next visit! read more

The massage itself was great. Katie, the masseuse did a great job of working through my knots and relaxing me. After the massage ended, I felt so relaxed. Until I walked back into the front and had to listen to the membership sales pitch. Repeatedly saying no I'm not interested, and listening to "one more thing", i quickly grew annoyed and not relaxed. Thank you for the great massage. However, I did not leave feeling relaxed and destressed due to the annoying sales pitch. I said I was not interested, let me go home. read more

Very disappointed with this location. Have been coming here for 3+ years. I have had some excellent therapists but there is a high turnover with staff. I recently went for a massage and the therapist I was assigned to was sick with a respiratory illness. The therapist was clearly very ill and admitted this. I ended up not having the massage as I cannot risk getting I'll. First off, the therapist should not have been doing massages and transmitting her infection. Management should have sent her home. Now I am out money for a massage that I didn't even have that what not my fault. I also called the day after this and was told that a manager would call me back. 24 hours later and no return call! Very disappointed! I am going to be canceling my membership and will be going elsewhere. Yes, it is going to cost me more for a massage but you get what you pay for. Think twice about coming here. read more

This is literally the worst massage parlor on the planet. If you enjoy your masseuses digging bruises into your skin and receptionists who tell you their next available massage will be sometime three months from today then this is the place for you. Just today I went to get a massage, signed in with the receptionist and waited in the waiting room for half an hour. I walked back up and asked what's going on. They said "oh.. we'll give your masseuse a call." The masseuse was not even at the location and they didn't bother letting me know. Also not the first time my massage was canceled due to their inability to keep track of their masseuses. Unprofessional is an understatement. read more

So I've been on crutches for the past month or so and it was really doing a number on my shoulders/back/arms. I got a note from my doctor okaying a massage, and scheduled an appointment at Massage Envy for a Monday after work. Three hours before the appointment I get a call that the therapist has called in sick and they need to reschedule me. To her credit, the girl who called was friendly and tried to be helpful (she even called to their other locations to try to get me in). Unfortunately, the next earliest appointment wasn't for a full week. It's crazy that they have no plan in the event a therapist doesn't show. Ultimately this place just really isn't worth the hassle of having to book appointments way in advance only to risk last-minute cancellations. read more

This was the first massage that I have ever received and It was great. Mike, who was my LMT, was amazing. He was upfront with me when it came to what had I wanted to what was needed. I went in, mainly for a back and neck injury and asked for this to be the main focus of the 1 hour. Mike did awesome with distressing, de-tensing and relaxing me. I joined the membership and will be back. Friendly and clean! Any one going here ask for Mike read more

First time at this location and it was a fantastic experience. Front desk staff was so friendly and welcoming--even got a tour of the spa and the waiting room was very calming. My therapist KATHERINE provided one of the BEST massages I have ever had, and I am an LMT of 12 years and have had plenty of massages over the years. I was impressed by her knowledge and skill! Could not recommend her enough! Fantastic personality, amazing skills, and even taught me a thing or two as well. If you have areas that you need focused on and worked out well, she's your girl. read more

This was a fail for me. I had a gift card so figured why not. I walked in and everything feels very corporate which is to be expected. I answered a bunch of questions that an employee entered into an iPad and then I was taken to the tranquility room. I thought I would have a few minutes to begin to unwind to get ready for my massage but no it was about 30 seconds before my therapist was there to whisk me away to a different room. I asked for someone who could give me a really deep tissue massage and I was assigned the employee who had the highest rating for pressure. What wasn't so great was when he walked in I could smell cigarette smoke on him which is not what I was looking for when I was going for massage. Overall massage uneventful it was fine the pressure was good I didn't feel like I had any lasting fax from it though. At the end of the massage I got dressed and went out to the area to cash out and of course was tried to be pressured into buying a package in a monthly massage which I was not interested in doing after the cigarette smell experience unfortunately this lived up to my very low expectations and was a fine massage that only cost me enough money for a tip but I certainly would be unhappy if I had paid full price for this. read more

I was a member with my wife and we were going before the COVID couple massage anyhow COVID came short on staff had my wife seeing a male I was not pleased with it the agreement was female for her anyhow couple massage stopped for a while so she was seeing this person who is not comfortable working with others so our couple massage once it started back became a problem his massaging my wife now In which I didn't not know because he wouldn't work with the person that massage me and long story short I spoke to the owner and things were to be change and the general manager told my wife what me and the owner spoke because he knew I didn't want my wife with that person he created a problem for me after everything was supposed to be done plus he came up to my face violated the 6ft distance to question me on my personal life him as a manager fix the problem but no my member ship was canceled and my wife has a boy toy there disrespectful manager there read more

I'm giving 3 stars solely due to the absolutely annoying & pushy people at front desk. Carly, the massage therapist that I saw today, did a great job. She deserves 4.5 stars. And I would've made the decision to come back to her again, if it weren't for the absurd push to become a member after the massage. I read a couple reviews about this, at massage envy, so I geared myself up for it. But, when I agreed to become a member, I had to be sure that I'd be able to cancel at any time! The girl who was givin me the pitch, failed to mention that I'd be signing a 12 month contract! That's a BIG detail to not mention! So after asking & then receiving that fact- I declined. It was like the end of the world & you could hear a pin drop! Then, no "Have a nice day!" Nothing! And through all that, I forgot to tip Carly! I turned the car around once I realized I never tipped her- and upon re-entry, I was once again questioned about the membership! FRIGGIN ANNOYING! And it totally took away all the relaxation I just was enjoying from the massage! They really lost me after that. That sucks, because I liked Carly! They should do something about all this- they are a total turn-off!! They ARE corporate & it definitely SHOWS! read more

The massages are excellent but I am with some other reviewer on the pushiness of employees to sell service. I felt like I was at a car dealership. They were nice but the pitch is up there. It kind of takes away from the moment. read more

I carry so much stress and tension in my back and shoulders and I found having monthly massages with Nicki helps me with my pain...I tried the chiropractor who is also very good but nothing like getting regular massages. I go every 3 months for a "tune up" at the chiropractor but every 3-4 weeks (or sooner if I have a gift card) for an upper body massage with Nicki. It has changed my life! read more

The massages are decent, who you see impacts whether it's an average, decent or good massage. The first couple were actually phenomenal. As someone who suffers from significant shoulder and back pain, the idea of regular massages was great so I signed up. Here's my experience AFTER about 10 months. Inability to book an appointment, weeks, sometimes over a month after I wanted it. Attempts to cancel resulted in the person I needed to speak with "not being there" Calls to cancel require it be done "in person" Went to cancel only to discover that if I cancelled I'd lose several of those massages I'd "saved" due to being unable to schedule a massage. Finally MONTHS after trying (and 4 months after my year being up) I ended up being able to get this cancelled. They cancelled 2 of my appointments that were required to be used by a certain day. I did get them in, by taking any random massage therapist, but I've got to tell you, this place reeks of used car salesman techniques and not in a good way. So imagine my frustration when I was gifted a massage as a thank you. I didn't use it. I was going to, but I called 17 times to see about getting an appointment and I'm not willing or able to schedule 3 months in advance. Save your money. read more

I would post a negative rating if I could. DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT sign a contract with this entity. They are more than happy to take your money and the service is mediocre and expensive at best. In the event you relocate and try to cancel your contract they harass you with numerous phone calls and letters demanding money for an additional month even if your account is current with unused services. Then to delay your ability to use them, they keep your account open and try to force more money out of you. There was a class action lawsuit brought against them for this type of dishonest act...but I guess this location didn't get the memo on ethics. Save your money and go to a real spa. Sadly, I now have to start a formal complaint with NYS AG's office and the local BBB. I give this location a thumbs down, horrible customer service and truly a rip-off! read more

Wanted a massage not a sales pitch. Will not return. Massage was great, too bad the staff acted so pushy. I pushed my way out the door.

I followed my massage therapist to this location. I do understand that ME is a franchise, & that front desk staff is required to try to sell the membership package to all "guests" With that being said, i am content with the surroundings & probably would not come here if my therapist left. They also offer facials with Murad products, which are, of course, available for sale (the estheticians receive commission on the products that are purchased). read more

Massage Envy as a business is OK- It is clean and peaceful; the hours are convenient; and the staff are great. The main problem with Massage Envy is the price! My goodness the prices are a little much! But the thing that really sets it apart are the two massage professionals I see: Chris and Tom. Both are professional and each add something unique to the visit. The price makes it worth it to have these two gentlemen provide massages! read more

My girlfriend and I went to massage envy on Niagara Falls Blvd in Tonawanda NY and it was the most disgusting experience of my life.The woman who did my massage smelled as if she hadnt showed for a week in the Amazon. She had me lying face up and was leaning over me breathing into my face and I had to breathe through my mouth because of the smell. Her hands felt like a mechanic's hands and all she did was move the lotion around on my back. It wasnt even a massage. She also spent 25 mins of the short massage on my arms and chest after I filled out the questionaire, told the intake girl and the therapist that i only wanted my back, neck and shoulders done. So about 35 mins into the hour massage i was choking back vomit and said we had an emergency and had to get going. I told the manager that they should check their employees hygiene and not to offer me a membership or i would walk out without paying.Two thumbs down massage envy, gross! read more

Absolutely awesome job. Michael was perfect at removing the sore areas and treating them. I couldn't have asked for better service. Bobby at the front desk was phenomenal as well. Definitely plan on coming back. read more

I give this place a two star review, not due to the massage, but due to the pushiness of the sales pitch you are fed afterwards. No wonder they won't allow you to pay beforehand, because they attack you with sales drama afterwards, which really takes away from your relaxing massage that you've just experienced. And, to make matter worse, the "deal" that they're pushing you to accept is NOT a deal at all. They want to take $60 off of your credit or debit card per month for ONE lousy massage! I won't be going back. read more

At the moment, I've summed up a little more than a year of monthly service at this place. The massages are not actually an hour, but 50 minutes. With 10 minutes of talking. But that was reasonable...but last year I was having complications financially and couldn't afford the luxury of monthly massages, and it is a pain to get out of the contract without making a payment first. Then there were the handful of stolen payments due to "contract agreements.". You would think a place with the objective of stress relief would have a much more supportive staff. But I find it hard to believe that they actually enjoy their job, let alone take the goal seriously. Finally, the manager, who completed ignored my frustration with the final situation, became a very snippy individual full of sarcasm. Doesn't matter what the situation is, you remain a professional. And try to see things from the customers point of view. Pathetic. Never going there again. Telling anyone that cares for comfort to avoid this location. read more

First massage ever and the massage itself was delicious. I see more of them in my future, at ME, not too sure about that. The place was nice and cozy, however the sales push at the end was off putting. That's all I could think about after leaving my appointment. Pushy in a polite way but I got the feeling I was meeting with the finance guy at a car dealership. Take note ME, think about offering the info about the membership in a pamphlet for clients to take with them. read more

All I can tell you is that they cheated my wife out of 3 massages that they owed her. When we tried to set up the appointments none were available . They are not a place that you want to set up anything with an agreement, and don't give them your credit card. My opinion only. read more

I'm currently a member, which I regret. This place is over priced and has a horrible cancellation policy. The desk staff are very pushy and obviously fake. The therapist of course are good but I had better and regret getting a membership read more

I'm not sure if this is a good deal or not. I received my first message from Eric, and was told by the person doing the scheduling that he was a deep pressure masseuse. My first time with him was good, pressure was deep and he was able to work out my knots. However the second time I had him he was excessively rough, to the point of abusive. He left bruises and pinched my skin so that it was painful to even wear a bra. He pulled my hair and yanked on my limbs and neck. It was TERRIBLE!!!!!! He acted like he was angry and was talking it out on me, this is not what a massage should be like. I have to go back because I did the membership, but I will NEVER go to Eric again!!! I hope that someone else will be better. I want to relax not lay in pain feeling worse then before the massage. Word of advice unless you want to be in pain durring and after your massage DON'T go to Eric!!! read more
