OMG! Courtney is AWESOME. Just make an appointment for a massage with her!Today I had another (I've lost track of exactly how many) absolutely fabulous deep tissue massage. She is so good at working out those really nasty knots I get in my neck & back. She really listens & assesses what needs extra attention at each visit! While I have checked out many Groupon, Living Social & other local deals for massages, I have finally found someone who does a phenomenal job of working out my "knots"...I'm no longer in the hunt! She used a blend of essential oils on my knee that was really effective in eliminating the pain. She has also helped me with exercises to do in between visits to reduce my stress-induced knots! I'm going to repeat my first comment: Courtney is AWESOME! read more

Shoulder pain has kept me awake for a few weeks. Doctors all said it was inflammation and time would help. I saw Courtney at Roth Bodywork this week and my pain has been cut by at least 70 percent. Deep tissue and trigger point therapy in a cozy,relaxing environment. Welcomed by a glass of detox tea- the experience was excellent. I bought a package. Super ! read more

Courtney was recommend to me by a good friend, she told me she just had the best massage ever. I immediately called Courtney and made an appointment. Just had my massage last night and I can't say enough great things. I have a 9 month old baby and some crazy hip and back pain. She focused on those areas and the connecting areas and I immediately felt better. I made an appointment for my husband before I left, he is so excited to go see her and I can't wait to go back! I highly recommend Courtney! read more

Courtney is an ultimate healer and true massage ninja! The way she artfully moves around her clients makes you feel like you've died and gone to heaven. There's an arm here, a finger here, a hand here! Wow! How does she do it all so well?! I love her little office space that she has truly carved a sanctuary for her clients out of. I found this amazing place on Groupon, and is the only business that I continue to frequent long after the deal was used. Thank you Courtney! read more

Courtney is the best in the business. Period. I've had a lot of massages in my life, but it was Courtney's practice that made me really understand the difference between regular massage and true Bodywork massage. Yeah, run-of-the-mill massages can feel nice while you're getting them, and that's great and all, but do they actually fix anything? Or do you need to go back in two days for the same thing that you went in for in the first place? Forget those other spots.. Courtney is actually a healer. On top of it all, Courtney is also one of the nicest people you'll ever meet! read more

Very good massage! I bought a Groupon valid for a 90-minute Swedish massage. I was able to schedule an appointment online and process was fast and easy. Courtney was professional, attentive and friendly. She was also very welcoming, and made me feel comfortable right away. Before starting our session, Courtney asked me a few questions about my health and what I expected from my massage. She really made sure she'd make the experience all about me (The customer). Room was nice and cozy and my overall experience was very good. I left feeling so relaxed! I'd definitely recommend Courtney. read more

World got you twisted? You KNEAD Courtney in your life! This is not just massage, this is true bodywork. Courtney is an absolute master at knowing where all of the tough spots are and how to work them. Usually you have to pick; bodywork that is sometimes not comfortable or a floofy massage that feels nice while it's happening but does not do anything for your body once you leave the table. Not with Courtney; she works on the stuff that needs work (scar tissue, tight joints, tweaked muscles, etc.) but she is SO great at the relaxing soothing part too-you almost don't notice when she's doing the tougher work! Her environment is so calm and happy, great smells, cute twinkle lights, it is like a happy massage cocoon! In addition to being a bodywork phenom she's also an all around great person, wickedly funny and kind. Easy conversation when you want it, quiet and peaceful when that's the vibe. Courtney has helped me pre and post surgery as well as helping to address injuries and general aches and stiffness. She is a true artist! read more

Courtney is awesome. She really is able to identify and work on problem areas. I feel really good after seeing her for a sciatica issue and will definitely be back. read more

Courtney is great! I've been getting massages from her for about five months now and it has helped tremendously. I've had back issues for awhile now and massage is one of the only things that helps. Courtney's deep tissue techniques have routinely helped unlock frozen/tense muscles, leaving me pain free and mobile. Thanks Courtney! read more

Courtney works magic! I have had massages regularly and all over the world and she is the best. Over three years of sessions with her, I have been impressed with her professionalism and range of work she does for me. Whether it is exercise/injury aches and pains or just the need for relaxation, she tailors the sessions to my needs. Her deep tissue work works miracles for me. I have never previously been a fan of aroma therapy but I have completely changed my mind with this addition in her work.. Her delicious concoctions are specific to my needs that day. It's quiet, peaceful and soothing in her studio. She is absolutely the best! Dr. Suzanne read more

My last massage was deep and so effective that I have more movement in my neck than I have had in years. Thanks soooooo much for the relief. read more

I never knew a massage could be this good! Courtney seemed to intuitively know how to work her magic in order to relieve my stress and aches. I don't think it was a coincidence that I felt a greater sense of well being during the weeks following my massage. Don't get me wrong, there are good masseuses out there, but I believe Courtney is truly gifted at her practice. She definitely stands out above the other massages I have gotten in the past. I will be back soon!! read more

How do I put into words the best body massage I have ever had??? Courtney is incredibly talented and caring. I was late for my appointment (so I was stressed and frustrated) she immediately put me at ease (even though she had an appt after mine) and made me feel valued and important. She took time to get to know me and my needs then proceeded to do amazing work on my body. Not just a massage, but a body treatment. She is amazing. If you are looking for the best service and a very reasonable value-call Courtney!! I can't wait for my next visit! read more

Courtney is amazing! She's by far the best massage therapist in SD. No one else compares! She's also one of the most genuine people that I've met since moving here 7 years ago. I always look forward to seeing her. Thank you for helping me reduce stress & relax my muscles! You rock!!! read more

I have gone to Courtney a couple of times before, usually on the spur of the moment to get a kink worked out (e.g., knots in calves, neck, or I.T. Band). Today, I saw her after a very, very long run on Saturday (20 miles), but just for general soreness. She did exceptional work on my legs. She performed a deep tissue massage and has the experience to back off before the pain is too much so my muscles could relax into it. I feel really good right now. If I was going to knock anything, it would be a lack of a shower. But, she makes it up by wiping you down with warm towels afterward. Also, she uses high quality massage oils that smell really good and natural. Finally, Courtney has a really nice manner about her. She can carry on a good conversation if that is what you like, or just let you zone out. I highly recommend her. read more

I fell asleep; I never fall asleep. Courtney was amazing. I have had plenty of massages, but I always feel that others never go hard enough because they're worried it might steer you away. Her deep tissue was both therapeutic and relaxing. She really understands the make up and connections within the body and how best to relieve tension via all the connected parts. Highly recommend Courtney! read more

You stay with what works. That is exactly why I won't go to anyone else for a massage after going to several different massage therapists over the years. As everyone has said throughout their Yelp review - Courtney's massages have long lasting effects. I will be moving out of state soon - but I will be making return massage appts when I am back in town. read more

Courtney was absolutely amazing! She was able to provide what my body needed, as well as what I wanted. I left my first appointment with her feeling an instant improvement in my back and shoulders. She talked to me throughout the appointment and explained what she was doing and what I was feeling. Courtney has helped me to relieve some of the pain and tension that I have been carrying around for quite some time, and I feel confident that with her continued help I will be able to eliminate that pain and tension for good! I see a monthly membership in my near future! read more

I have been receiving massage for at least 45 years, and I must say, Courtney gets the job done. She is kind, loving, sensitive to one's needs and desires, and has excellent communication skills! This woman is intelligent, highly-focused and extremely well educated in her profession. I'm setting another appointment w/her as soon as I complete this review. This is the first review I've ever written, because I was that impressed! ++Dr. Reneé Smith, Ph.D., San Diego read more

Awesome massage. She asked me a couple questions in the beginning about type of massage, desired pressure, comfort level etc. I let her know I had no areas of concern but my favorite massage area is arms and hands. She spent a good amount of time in those areas and when I thought our massage was all over, she actually went back and worked a few more minutes on my arms and hands! I was really pleased. Another thing I loved about her massage, was she wrapped each of my feet in a warm cloth after massaging them. That was a nice touch, especially since my body temperature drops considerably during massage. I also liked that the music in the room wasn't all "spa" music, there were a few very relaxing classical piano pieces sprinkled in. Overall it was a great experience and I look forward to my next massage with Courtney. read more

I'm always hesitant committing myself to spending a good chunk of money on something without knowing more (or at least having a substantial number of reassuring Yelp reviews available) ahead of time, but I found myself in dire need of a massage last week -- after realizing it'd be over 6 months without any kind of bodywork -- and was fortunate enough to find a next-day appointment with Courtney. I was definitely not disappointed. Scheduling was a breeze - easily completed online. Prices were fair and comparable to other massage studios in the area. Courtney's place was beautifully decorated and peaceful. I got a 90 minutes massage, and requested firm pressure (it was a deep tissue massage for the entire 90 minutes). It was one of the best massages I've ever had. She knew all of the pressure points and areas that needed work. She is extremely experienced and was able to keep the pressure consistent throughout the whole session. Courtney also had an attentive and calming presence throughout the massage. She really listened to what I told her I wanted and allowed me to fully relax through the entire session. I often feel obligated to carry on a conversation during a massage, but on that day I really needed to tune out, and she invited me to do just that from the moment I was on the table. Courtney was absolutely amazing and I have already referred her to several friends and family. She knows what she is doing and I will definitely return. read more

In 30+ years of having massages, I have never ever had the luxurious space that Courtney Roth provides. It was like something serene, soothing and mysterious out of Casablanca. That was only the beginning, though, because the bodywork was more like a medical treatment than a simple massage. I explained to Courtney about aftermath of two falls and hip problems, and she knew just where to target on my sore body. Hip, quads, psoas, hamstrings and shoulders/neck. I felt like a new woman when I left -- and I tried to convince her to relocate to the Portland area so I could continue her treatment. My very highest recommendation, and then some. read more

I'm in town visiting and I found Courtney on yelp and was impressed by her reviews. As someone who gets monthly massages for the last three years I can definitively tell you that NO ONE is better. She is a professional and is at the top of her game. I cannot say enough good things about her. Go to her and book 90 minutes or longer. It will change your life, no BS. read more

I recommend you try a massage with Courtney Roth. With over 22 years experience and a warm inviting massage environment, I think you'll be pleased. For my deep tissue needs, I found her strong, skilled and responsive. She has an advanced HHP degree. Try her website for scheduling your appointment time. You can see all the available openings and she will confirm by email. A dedicated off-street parking place and a non hurried schedule increases my desire to return! read more

I have known Courtney for a few years when I started getting massages from her. As an individual who is active in Crossfit, yoga and other activities, my muscles can easily get sore and tight. She has always come to my need with her amazing deep tissue massages. I swear she is a master at this. If you have a lower threshold for pain, just let her know and she can easily adjust for any pain or ailments. I also suffer from issues with TMJ and she has also helped in working out the muscles in my jaw joints. She has a convenient location and is always eager to help a person who may be in pain or is just searching for a little time to decompress. Courtney knows how to pinpoint trigger areas and is also constantly eager to find new ways to improve and expand her techniques in her practice. I highly recommend her. read more

Thank you, Courtney! This was an epic massage experience. I made a last minute appointment through her website. I showed up and was immediately pleased to find out she has a reserved parking spot and had peppermint tea waiting for me! We had a quick chat and then the massage happened. I am not the same now. It was SO GREAT! I will definitely being going back to see her soon. Highly recommended! read more

I have been to a lot of massage therapists for various issues, most having to do with my back. Courtney is simply the best. No two massages are the same: she asks questions each time about what's bothering me and where she should spend the most time. She is very careful about how much pressure to apply and establishes good communication so that I let her know where to really push and where to go more gently. She is also warm and caring and very professional. Highly recommended! read more

I have been to Courtney over a dozen times. She is a true professional. One of the keys to a great massage is getting the right amount of pressure. Too little or too much and the experience is not satisfying. She always finds the right spots with just the right amount of pressure. This from someone who likes very deep tissue work. Other times she backs off to a relaxing, therapeutic massage. If you have not tried her service you owe it to yourself to give her a call. read more

Bought a Groupon and am so glad I found Courtney this way. Scheduling was easy and she is quick to return any communication. Upon arrival, she took the time to discuss what I wanted from my massage. I wanted a firm massage, with some attention to reflexology. Courtney has many years of massage experience and her professionalism shows...I will definitely return! read more

Courtney works wonders! I feel rejuvenated and I have more mobility in my shoulder after she found the culprit for my aching arms. She is intuitive and gentle. I was very relaxed, I didn't even know she was doing some deep tissue work on me. I don't usually like deep tissue, I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to that stuff. I will be back! read more

As part of a family vacation in San Diego, I decided to book myself and my husband a massage. More than just for a relaxing experience, I decided to look in to finding a massage therapist who could help address pain we've both been dealing with. I found Courtney on Yelp and decided to make an appointment with her based on the reviews and services listed on her website. I booked a pain management massage, and Courtney delivered. This was the best massage I've ever had. Courtney was very knowledgeable in how to address the pain in my hips that I've had consistently for over 3 years now. Every other massage I've had, I only feel relaxed while it's happening; however, 3 days later, my hips still feel great! My husband had the same great experience! We will definitely be booking with Courtney again when we are back in town! read more

Just had a massage with Courtney today. She was very welcoming and easy to talk to about what needed work and how much pressure. The work environment is very relaxing, and the location has its own parking - a plus in Hillcrest. I think the experience was top notch and I would definitely recommend her. read more

She worked out all the kinks! I was a mess, could barely move my left side and after an hour of INTENSE medical massage, I'm feeling much better. Going in again soon. read more

Courtenay was wonderful and well worth my time and money. From her professionalism to the relaxing and clean environment to the wonderful massage, I came away very impressed. I am an avid swimmer and had issues with my shoulders and back and felt much better after my first visit. I am confident she can continue to help and I will be back - I already signed up for my next massage. If you are looking for a solid massage by a professional, this is it! read more

Just had a massage from Courtney and it was wonderful and relaxing. I have seen Courtney before and she has always been fantastic at getting rid of the kinks and knots in my body. She is warm and kind and her office reflects her personality. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a quality massage from a highly qualified person. read more

So impressed with Courtney!! I've used Yelp for years but have never written a review before this 5 star experience. You never know what you're going to get when you see a new massage therapist but Courtney exceeded all of my expectations. Booking was easy, ambiance was super relaxing and the massage was exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend you give her a shot, she is amazing! read more

I had my second massage this afternoon and my five star rating holds. Courtney did a incredible job taking out the kinks from all the lifting I did with our big move...I feel better than human! I can't wait to return for another session. read more

Courtney is great! She's attentive to your troublesome areas, always asks how you're enjoying the pressure and mindful of your comfort. She's uses a mixture of creams, essential oils and aromatherapy based on what the client needs. She's inventive and caring. Always happy leaving after my massages! read more

Courtney is a magician with her hands! I always leave my massage feeling so rejuvenated and stress-free. From the order in which she massages my muscles to the nice touches like the tea, warm sheets and aromatherapeutic rub, all show a high-level of care, attention and professionalism. If you need a masseuse, look no further, Courtney is your gal! read more

Courtney is fixing issues with my neck, shoulders, and hip. Her massages are very good, and she gives good advice for things that I can do at home. I highly recommend her. read more
