I would've recommended Rubs to anyone who askes until Friday 8/28 when I was sexually assaulted by a male therapist. He rubbed his penis against my hand twice. The first time I clearly moved and moved my hand to which he did it again. I was in disbelief. I also question if B is really a licensed massage therapist as the things he did ive never experienced in the 15+ years of getting massages. I have reached out to Rubs about this situation with zero response. read more

It takes quite a bit for me to go full five star review, but Rubs at Rita Ranch did everything right. Hence, the full five star review. I've heard stories of other places trying to sell you add ons, memberships, etc. when you come in for your first appointment, but none of that happened. The person behind the desk was super friendly and made pleasant conversation. That was it. I filled out my little form, and sat in their well appointed waiting area for my appointment with Erin. I had scheduled a deep tissue massage because that's the type of massage I really wanted and it was off the wall awesome. Erin knew exactly how much pressure I needed at various areas we had talked about and checked in on me to make sure I was doing fine. (I was doing great!) The entire massage was deliberate and methodical and exactly what I was looking for. She worked out several knots and when my appointment was done I felt like a million bucks. I scheduled a longer session and plan on going back at least once a month. The space is clean, the music is relaxing, and everyone is very nice. I have been to several places over the years; this is one of the best. read more

Rubs Massage Studio - Rita Ranch - Massage Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

See all

Chill, relaxing, ambiance that helped us relax for our entire session. My wife and I had a couple's therapeutic massage, and we definitely got our money's worth! I had been feeling aches and pains all over since my last long training exercise that was very physically demanding, and Zach was able to work out even the most hard to get knots in my back and shoulders. Adriana was able to work my spouse's lower back pain out, and she has been a whole different lady. Will definitely make the trip again! read more

Zach is amazing and very knowledgable and skilled. I was overdue for a deep tissue massage and arrived in pain but left feeling extreme relief! Don't wait make an appointment here today! read more

Went to rubs after experiencing pain in my neck and back. Jose did an amazing job working out the knots in my muscles. After a couple of sessions I'm doing way better. The rooms are clean and well prepared. The front staff are courteous and responsive. Very pleased with the establishment and highly recommend it! read more

Love this place. Vernon and Amber are the best. Highly recommend them! Customer service is great. read more

I am still visiting Cheyenne for my massages and she is still off the charts amazing... but this updated review is for the facial I just got a couple of weeks ago. WOW. I had totally forgotten how amazing facials were. She used Eminence products on me that smelled fabulous and made my skin feel hydrated and fantastic. She also does an upper body massage (arms/shoulders) that felt wonderful. I will be a repeat customer in the facial arena. read more

This was, by far, the worst massage experience I have ever had. My husband and I went to get massages at the same time but he went in after me and was done before me somehow. Literally, I walked out at 5 minutes past the hour (on time btw) and he was already waiting for me!! How?!? Because he didn't get his full time, that's how, BUT that may have been a blessing in disguise since she was wrecking him anyway!! The worst part was ZERO listening on behalf of the "therapists" BOTH of them! I think this place just wants to hurt you with DEEP trigger point digging so you'll HAVE to come back!!! We both had to continuously stop our massages to tell them to stop!! We were clear, RELAXATION MASSAGE but I guess Rubs doesn't do that!! It was awful! My husband was in actual pain for days! Not "worked out muscle knot" pain but "WTF did she do to me" pain!! Armando was my mess of a "therapist" but don't call him a masseuse because as he put it "that's the one with a happy ending" WHAT?!?!? He refused to listen to ANY of my guidance which was super important for me because I have MS. I told him how i feel things differently and that he was legit HURTING me!! Over and over!! One more minute and Id have thrown him out of the room to get dressed and leave!! Placing WET hot towels on me which soaked the sheet and then putting the wet sheet back over me?! He even made a snide comment that he thought I'd fallen asleep because I guess I took too long get redressed!! WHAT IN THAT MASSAGE WOULD HAVE MADE ME SLEEPY?? Nothing! He also said he'd give me advice but since I "wouldn't let him do trigger points" he couldnt!! I was so disappointed that by the time I got out, my sweet husband (who remember got robbed of at least 10 minutes of his crappy massage) had not only paid but had tipped these people WELL! Full disclosure: I spoke to the manager. She said she could crunch some numbers to see how much of a discount she could give us to return and give them another try'. I told her to save her time, I wouldn't come back if she paid ME! But I did ask her to do something "nice" for my friend who does go there regularly (so I could know she'd actually addressed these issues with her staff) but apparently it was a lie. She did nothing so I'm guessing neither of those therapists heard one word about their abysmal performances Save your money and your muscles....... go somewhere ANYWHERE ELSE. read more

I was contacted because I had a problem. They went out of their way to make it right. Thank you.

If you are looking for a basic relaxation massage then this is your place. There is nothing super special about it but it's a fair price for a simple massage. If you want luxury or even a little nicer spa like feel then try another massage or spa place closer. Prices are comypetitve to similar chain massage places but I do prefer non chain locations. read more

I've been to this Rubs several times and have always had a great experience. Vernon is my go to therapist after my last appointment. Highly recommend him if you are looking for medium to deep tissue (but I'm sure he's good at all levels of pressure). read more

I was in a ton of pain and was in desperate need of a massage. I was visiting Tucson, so I was lucky to find this place! Love their on-line booking system, makes it easy to get an appointment. Suweena was my massage therapist. I told her exactly where my pain was located and then she asked me a couple of more questions. I was really impressed, she worked on the area that was causing me the most pain the majority of the time, which is exactly what I needed. I gained some range of motion back and some of the pain was gone by the time I left. I was very pleased with the therapist. The only issue I had, is that the room was a little bit on the cold side. This place is a little bit on the pricey side. Parking was really easy. read more

Giving a four only because I requested a girl but was given a man for my massage and it was a little awkward especially for it being my first time getting a massage. Everyone was so kind nonetheless and the facial and massage were very nice and thorough read more

Amazing! I was hesitant to get another massage after my first experience went pretty badly, but Vernon was so professional and it was awesome. I felt so relaxed after leaving and I'll definitely be returning here. read more

To begin with I do recommend this studio. I was not aware at all of the benefits of a massage now I do. Rubs massage is my favorite massage studio in Tucson. Will come back !!! read more

we've been going for 5 years. My wife gets her waxing there. Done by Theresa. and we also get a couples massage and Adriana and Jessica do an amazing job. read more

First time here. I had facials before but this one I was very happy with as she gave me a lot of information that I can continue to care for my skin. Theresa was wonderful. I will be back. read more

Nice place to get a massage. I recommend for anyone who needs some pamper-me-time. Great service. Highly recommend.

If You Have That Proverbial " Aching Back " There Is No Better Place To Bring It Than To Rubs "Massage In Rita Ranch (520) 230-7720 Managed By Jane Girdosky Although All The Staff Is Very Talented In Massage Or Facials ... My Recommendation For A Deep Therapeutic Back Massage Is To Ask For Tim Tell Them Terry O'Rourke Sent You ... You Will Be Well Pleased ! read more

Amazing! I went in not expecting too much but it was great! Amber was able to tell what needed work without me even asking. I will be going back! read more

Vivian is an amazing massage therapist! I always feel better after my sessions with her...Front staff are professional and helpful...Great location! Kudos! read more

They are very, clean, professional and provide good service. They have heated tables which are nice on sorrel muscles.

Just came back from Rubs Studio and I am in HEAVEN. I highly recommend Micah for a massage and Theresa the esthetician. Micah asked what I was looking for and having 2 children, I wanted to relax but still get all the knots out. She hit the nail on the head and was professional and pleasant. I don't remember the last time my body felt so good! Theresa made my eyebrows look beautiful again- which, trust me, was not an easy feat! Thank you Rubs.... I will be coming back! read more

Love this location! We go personally but also purchase a lot of gift certificates for this company. Massage services are always on point. Therapists are well educated and good at their craft. I often need targeted massage for specific areas and they are always succesful at relieving my tension or soreness. I recommend this location highly! I continue going back. read more

This is my third time coming to this Rubs. Fantastic. It was painfully good. The massage therapist got a lot of kinks and knots out of my back. Go ahead and go there and spoil yourself. You're in for a great treat. read more

As an anniversary gift we got Our first time ever couples massage... while our massages were good and the massage therapists were sweet, (which is why I gave more than 1 star) but customer service front desk WAS NOT! The receptionist was not friendly, not welcoming and tbh not really professional in my opinion. Me and my husband aren't the wealthiest looking I guess, but common we aren't looking like bums! We didn't think we would get the judgy looks like we did. We weren't dressed in rags, we know how to dress! We just don't seem to have the same style that fits their Rita Ranch style apparently. We tried to shrug it off after our check in but our check out and paying process was awkward and weird. We had a mid aged woman at check in and mid age guy at check out, although the girl was still up there. I hope they read this and understand you are the reason we will go somewhere else next time, and not recommend this specific place. Never judge a book by its cover because we were definitely trying it out, so we can find a place and get massages more often. read more

This review is way, way overdue! I am a huge fan of RUBS and I just gotta share the love! Great staff, you need an appointment with little notice? They will do their very best to accommodate you! Not sure what kind of service you want or need, again... staff is very helpful and patient! Do not be afraid to say, "I don't know"! Let go and let the relaxation start... The atmosphere of soothing calm starts the moment you open the door. Everything about this place lulls you into a velvety, tranquil state... perfect for unwinding and taking care of you...or someone you really care about! If you plan on visiting often our really want too impress that special someone - ask about their annual membership... it's very inexpensive and worth every penny! The staff makes sure that your visit was everything you thought it would be. I have never been disappointed! Plenty of parking, convenient hours, great people, informative website, and gift certificates available (always a WIN in my book)! Sign up for emails to receive specials! read more

I was treated with the utmost care and kindness here and was fit in on a same day notice which I greatly appreciated. My therapist knew what she was doing and was able to pinpoint where my body needed the most attention. I would definitely use this place again. read more

Always enjoyed my facials here! They usually have late minute booking avbl as well. Every time I left there I felt very refreshed. The facials was great and the massages that they do during the facials was perfect. The spa was clean and very quiet. This location is one to try. read more

Lynda Gonzales at the Rita Ranch Rubs is amazing! I have had lymphedema of my left leg for 10+ years. Lynda has started a wellness program with me and my leg is improving. She found a wedge for me to buy reasonably to elevate my leg at night or when watching TV and has shown me exercises I can do at home to help also. This is to help in addition to the wonderful massages that she gives. She looks for your feedback to make sure you are getting what you want out of the massage (be it therapeutic or for relaxation). The massages here are also at such a reasonable price. I would recommend anyone who wants a great massage to see Lynda. Barbara H. read more

I just had my first appointment today with rubs, since one of family members was not able to make the appointment, the appointment got passed me! Lets start with the service, excellent. I arrived at 3:25, 5 minutes before my appointment, since I had some paperwork to fill out. As soon as I was done, I met my licensed therapist Cheyenne. It was comfortable and relaxed, we had a discussion for a few minutes and explained to her my physical limitations and that I had never had a massage in the United States before, so I was unaware. She went over the appointment with me and I opted for something relaxing. With that, she left room and I mentally prepared myself. I have problems relaxing sometimes and being in my boxers under a blanket, is a bit unusual for me, but thousands of people do this, why not me. I then had an hour of delightful stress relaxing massage, with near the end, nice wrapped warm feet. I mus say that the room was very quiet, with some nice flute music playing in the background. This place is family friendly, relaxing and private. Very friendly staff, and well worth the visit. I will return for some more therapeutic massage in the future. read more

As a disabled Army Veteran I have aches and pains. I visited rubs to try something different. I had done research on alternate pain relief than the drugs they doctors push on you, and to my surprise it is a very common practice since Vietnam war that veterans get massages and it assists with pain relief among other things. I highly recommend this place. I have been to a couple other places and they were nothing compared to Rubs. I had Erin for my massage therapist. She was professional and listened to what my pain areas were and gave the perfect amount of pressure throughout the whole massage. She was amazing to say the least. Rubs is lucky to have such an amazing young lady. My body is full of relief and isn't in pain after my massage. I definitely will be back, and with a bigger Tip. read more

I went to my first "Rubs" yesterday and was pleasantly suprised. I have been to chain massage studios before but this one really gave me individualized service. Andy was my therapist and she had extensive knowledge of the workings of the human body and frame. I have a hip injury and I have been seeing a chiropractor for my neck as well. She specializes in working on athletes so it was a match made in heaven. My chiropractor noticed instantly that I had done something different over the weekend. With great prices and brilliant therapists, Rubs in Rita Ranch is a good deal. read more

It is difficult to find a good massage place, but this place has fantastic masseuses. I took my mother in law, and we both throughly enjoyed our massages. She had Lola, who was very friendly and was able to pinpoint her trouble spots in seconds. I had Yovonka who had great pressure in all the right spots. read more

Go see Natalie! She is amazing and has been massaging me for years. She understands the pressure and the type of massage you want. Does hot stones as well. read more

This was the first time I went to get a massage at Rubs and I was very impressed! I really liked how accommodating they were. I did the "escape" package which is an hour massage and a half hour facial. I was able to schedule an appointment the same day which was helpful. I have been having lower back pain so they were able to go in and work out the pain. It was amazing. I really enjoyed all the relaxation. After my massage I went to get a facial and it was the first one I ever had. It was more than amazing!!! I wished I would have chose the hour long facial too. I can't wait to go back and get some more amazing pampering! read more

I've been here a few times for a deep tissue massage. This review is long overdue but every time I had a massage it didn't disappoint. The prices are reasonable, its quiet, and the rooms are dim, clean, and nicely set up. My therapist was nice to talk with, professional, and always concerned about how I was feeling during the massage. I will definitely be back as soon as I can get a few extra bucks together! And if you're on the fence about where to go between the chain massage studios, this one definitely has it more together! read more

Don't waste your money on a foot massage. All they do is put peppermint on your feet and wrap a hot towel around them. It's not an actual foot massage. Complete waste of $25. Beyond that, good massages in a relaxing atmosphere at a decent cost. read more

This is a terrible chain massage studio. I have been here several times because the massage prices are reasonable and they are close to home, but I won't go back again. They only seem to have inexperienced therapists right out of school. They allow you to pay more for a therapist with more experience, but I couldn't tell the difference. You can pay less for a great massage at other local places. Save your money. Don't go here! read more

Being a teacher, getting massages isn't a frequent occurrence(I've only had two). But one day after weeks of having a knot near my shoulder blade, I gave in and ponied up. I got the $65 one hour massage and it was fantastic! She went to work on the area of concern and was very accommodating by asking how the pressure was and making adjustments as necessary. By the time the full body treatment was done, I had wished I had gotten the 1.5 hour. The studio was nice and clean and everyone was really nice and pleasant. I can say it was just as good as my $150 massage I got at the Boulders in Scottsdale. I can't wait to indulge at Rubs again. read more
