I came in on a Sunday afternoon and was greeted by a welcoming receptionist and atmosphere. The decor, lighting, and music are both beautiful and conducive to relaxation. Additionally, it is a very clean environment. I wasn't sure what kind of massage I wanted- they offer Thai massage, foot reflexology, hydromassage, chair massage- but my masseuse helped me determine what would be best. My masseuse was Claire and I got a great chair massage and a Thai massage. Both significantly alleviated my soreness. She was attentive and sensitive to the amount of pressure I wanted. It was my first Thai massage and it was wonderful! To top off the experience, it is very reasonably priced and well worth it! read more

Zenwell is the shiz. Going to a massage therapist I've never met before and taking my clothes off isn't for me. I generally just come in clothes I would wear to yoga since I'm not a fan of community clothing. I call Jeff my little ninja because he can work out all the tough knots in my body without causing pain. Zen Well offer lots of different types of services, but the reflexology and the thai massage are my fav. I find myself quickly drifting off to a blissful stage and can't stop a smile from creeping across my face every time. I've never been a fan of chair massages, but my little ninja has since changed my mind. At first, I thought it would be strange to receive a massage in an open room (except for the thai massage is in private), but all I hear is the trickle of water and relaxing nature sounds. The staff there is very quiet as they move around. Sometimes it can be a little cold, but one mention and someone will bring you a blanket. I actually feel safer being in an open room. The massage is sooo good that sometimes I can't leave right away. I drink my hot tea in their comfortable lobby until I'm ready to rejoin the world again. read more

I just moved to South Austin, and have driven past ZenWell multiple times. I decided to stop in today to grab a services menu, and hopefully book a last minute appointment. Success! They had a 20 minute opening for a hand a foot massage. Megan helped me set up my treatment. She was super sweet and personable. I have received foot massages from other establishments. To be honest, they have left me a little scarred. Very rough treatments that left me wondering if I had just been abused, or just made me feel like a wuss. Like I couldn't handle it. I saw Claire, and she was an absolute delight. At one point, the pressure was a little uncomfortable. I'm always a little hesitant to criticize someone's method. My eyes were closed, but Claire was clearly watching my expressions because she observed my discomfort, asked if it was too much pressure, and modified her touch. At this point, I knew I was in expert hands. I was lucky enough to be able to include a 20 minute chair massage. It was amazing as well. Claire was very open and receptive to my requests and needs. I cannot wait to try their Thai massage. Very reasonable pricing. I loved the outfits they have you change into too. The Thai pants are so comfortable! And they sell them too :) I am so happy with my experience here. Thank you Zen Well! Thank you Claire & Megan! read more

What a fabulous Thai treatment! I am a massage therapist trained in Thai and am visiting from Las Vegas, my friend is a Thai trainer and massage therapist as well, our friend who is a local massage therapist suggested Zen Well to us which of course speaks volumes. The treatment was wonderful, I could tell that Chandra, my therapist truly loves what she does. The transition from relaxed to stretching was very smooth and not forced. The pressure was perfect and she checked in to make sure. The technique and flow while different from the table Thai I am used to was really relaxing and rejuvenating. I am truly grateful to Zen Well for an excellent first experience with floor thai. A must do! read more

I booked a month's worth of sauna sessions, infrared that is. That equals 4 sessions. Having researched saunas in Austin, I came up short of what I was looking for. Sauna with shower and ability to change between hot and cold running water intermittently after 15 minute sweat sessions. You either get these disgusting saunas where people a) wear their clothes, b) wear shoes c) dirty floors, d) no showers or you get what Zen Well and other wellness centers offer as "health solutions" - a simple infrared sauna. My problem with Zen Well is that there is no shower. The sauna itself is so darn uncomfortable and teeny weeny I wonder who the heck designed it? Nowhere else in the world have I ever been to such a sauna. You can't even lay down in it. What's that all about? Their website is cumbersome and hard to use. You cannot book a session if you've paid for it in advance. The receptionist told me twice how to do it but I didn't write her instructions down so I forgot. When I got to the site it was so difficult I just phoned them instead. That shouldn't be. If infrared is what you are seeking it is just that, an infrared sauna, nothing more or less. But it is not exactly relaxing when you cannot relax nor shower and have to change into your clothes after a sweaty session. read more

So here's the thing about a chair massage/reflexology combo with Josh: The guy is an artist. He works each muscle and tight spot just so, paying attention to the nuances of each one. He's not one to "go through the motions," instead he tailors each session to the specific needs of the client. I will be back. read more

I was a little hesitant to spend the amount of money for a chair massage that i would usually be spending on the a full up table massage with a private room, but I'm so glad I decided to give it a try! Trisha was my therapist and she was so great, really focusing in on my problem areas with the perfect amount of pressure. I particularly liked the reclining chair as opposed to the standard chair that I am used to where you sit forwards. If you have shoulder tenseness like I do, I highly recommend Trisha! Can't wait to go back. read more

I went to ZenWell (on Brodie just past William Cannon) twice this week -- once for a Thai Yoga massage (new to me and FABULOUS!!) and today for Reflexology. When I arrived today the owner, Bethany, asked if I'd gotten their message (I hadn't). She said that one of the employees had called in sick, and instead of a 1-hour Reflexology session I would get only 40 min. However, to make up for it she would give me a 20-min. Hydro Bed session for free. I'd never heard of a Hydro Bed! You don't get wet, but the bed has a heavy-duty rubber "bladder" you lie on, and water jets pummel or gently massage your back, depending on how you set the controls. I was in bliss THEN had my feet worked on. By the time I finished, I had to just sit on the couch for about 15 min. No way I could drive! And I like that you don't take your clothes off for any of the procedures. I have finally found my once-a-week source for massages. YEA!! read more

I discovered Zen Well when I was pregnant and went in several times for prenatal massages. They were amazing! You don't lie on your stomach, they do everything on your back or side, so it was always really comfortable. I saw Jamie for prenatal massages, and she was fantastic! Went in today for my first real Thai massage post-baby, and it was excellent! I saw Chandra, and she did an wonderful job! The massage incorporates lots of stretching and compression, and is nothing like any other massage I've ever had. I left feeling stretched, relaxed and rejuvenated. Before Zen Well I normally did deep tissue massages so I was worried it wouldn't be deep enough. It was and I'm hooked. If you've never tried Thai massage you really should! Also highly recommend for prenatal! read more

I initially went in to have a 60 min chair massage with Kara (who was absolutely fantastic) but she informed me that an hour on a chair massage might be uncomfortable, so we split it up 30 mins chair and 30 mins in a moon bed. I loved that she told me this because if not I would have just assumed the chair massage would be ok. Not even 10 mins into my chair massage I started feeling faint and sick from all the tension being released in my shoulders/neck area and I lost my vision, and heard ringing in my ears. Kara was absolutely amazing and so kind to me and knew EXACTLY what to do to make me feel better. I finished my amazing massage laying down which was great and a better position for me. I felt pretty scared when I started going faint but Kara assured me that it's normal and that it can occasionally happen to some people in the chair massage if they have a lot of built up tension. She helped make me feel so calm again and I can't wait to go back! read more

I visited Zen Well for the first time this afternoon for a hand and foot reflexology massage. I loved every minute of it! I am not a traditional "spa-goer" and generally prefer the cheap, hole-in-the wall reflexology places for a quick foot massage when I need to de-stress. I don't have the patience to sit around in a robe relaxing before my service. I just like to get right to it! I decided to upgrade a bit this time and give Zen Well a chance and am so glad I did. The place was very clean and modern, the atmosphere of the spa area was amazingly relaxing and the chair for the reflexology massage was super comfortable. And, the prices are still affordable ($1/minute). The service provided by Sarah at the front desk and the massage by Josh were also outstanding. I left feeling invigorated rather than sleepy and out of it. I'm considering buying one of the massage packages and making visiting Zen Well into a routine. read more

Zen Well is great for a chair massage if you don't feel like having a full body slick down someplace else. Actually, each time I've gone the masseuses have worked really hard. They do Thai massage as well, and have an infrared spa, both of which seem interesting but I haven't tried either yet. Just FYI the massage chairs are in a common room, not private rooms, which seems a little odd at first but you're not naked anyway so who cares. Give it a try! read more

My husband gifted me with a certificate to Zen Well, and I have to say that I was excited to try the various massages they offered. I've generally been a swedish massage kind of girl, so it was refreshing to see a spa that offered a variety of services that I haven't been exposed to. I decided to dive right in and try the "Taste of Everything" package (20 min. chair massage, 40 min. hand/foot reflexology, 20 min. facial massage, and 40 min. Thai massage). My therapist was Chandra, and she has such a professional, knowledgeable, and comforting demeanor. She immediately put me at ease and was very conscientious of massage pressure, my body temperature, and areas of pain. The chair massage, hand/foot reflexology, and facial massage were so relaxing, and I found myself falling asleep several times. I generally like a firm, hard pressure, and Chandra certainly delivered. I was a bit apprehensive about the Thai massage because it involves movement and a certain level of closeness with your therapist that I'm not used to-- but I was pleasantly surprised by how relaxing it felt, and I also loved the deep stretches and massage in various areas of my body that normally do not receive any care or attention. I can definitely see myself coming back for this after an intense workout or a very stressful week. I definitely recommend this spa for its wonderful massage/wellness options, the professionalism and friendliness of the staff, a tranquil atmosphere, a fun wardrobe (comfy Thai pants + a tank top + flip flops), and especially the very reasonable pricing and lenient cancellation policy. All the things that would generally cause some stress with a spa trip are completely non-existent here. They focus on what matters: relaxation and wellness. I am a fan! read more

I believe in massage. It's always worth it in my opinion. There are just some places that are better than others. Zen Well is one of those places. Everyone I've worked with here has been a true healer. The kind of body worker that doesn't need to be told or shown where your issues are, they can feel it. The facility is beautiful. They have you change into comfortable Thai style pants and a t shirt in a nice changing room before you begin. They offer a nice variety of massage styles and packages. Try them all. I'm a huge fan of their moon style massage chairs. But it's the Thai massage that's the real winner here. Intimate but never uncomfortable. I have repeatedly received the healing and help that I needed (kneaded ?!?) in these special rooms. Yes, this place is a little bit more expensive than other massage places. That's the only reason I am giving four stars instead of five. But from the helpful folks at the front desk to the skilled hands and hearts of the massage crew, this place is a winner. read more

I just got back from my first visit to Zen Well, and I can assure you it will not be my last! I had a 20 min chair massage and a 20 min hand and foot massage, both with Erin. It was so relaxing! It's been years since I had a massage, and one of the main reasons it's been so long is because I always find it a bit weird to be naked with a stranger!. At Zen Well you can change into their comfy pants and not have to worry about that! The room was very relaxing, with nice soothing music and a peaceful waterfall. Erin was great...I was practically falling asleep it was so relaxing, and my back and feet and hands feel like butter. I'm not sure if I'll try the Thai massage, but I'll definitely be back! Next time I might do 40 min of the hand/foot, so my feet can get just a bit more attention. There is NOTHING more relaxing than having someone rub on your feet! It's not cheap but it's reasonable, and well worth the money. I don't think I can justify going there weekly, but every few weeks - absolutely! read more

I was recommended by my roommate to come here for a massage after driving all the way from Rhode Island. (30. Hours.) I've never received a Thai massage until I came here. Anita was so great and she really stretched me out. It was different and not like a real massage but it definitely helped tremendously. My lower back and upper back felt like the pressure was gone and when I wrote, circled and explained where I needed the most attention, it was magnified on 10 folds. The place is very calm and warm. The front desk girl was so sweet and they are extremely accommodating. read more

Dawn was awesome! I've been struggling with some upper back pain for weeks (even went to my wife's massage therapist -- very relaxing, not very helpful). Only had time to schedule a quick 20 minute chair massage -- but with just 20 minutes, Dawn was able to remove weeks of pain and give me back full movement. Can't wait until I can get in for a full massage read more

I finally treated myself and scheduled a 40 minute Thai massage and 40 minutes of foot/hand reflexology with Stephan (on the recommendation of a friend). This was long overdue and I'm glad I chose Stephan and Zen Well; amazing experience, atmosphere and massage. Stephan was firm as I requested and did not disappoint. I feel 100 times better and recommend!! read more

I've had a couple of hand and foot reflexology appointments with Suzie and she is absolutely fantastic. Everyone I've spoken to there is very friendly and helpful. I've never had to wait more than a minute for an appointment. Facility is very clean and they have some really neat internationally curated items for sale in the lobby, including hand-made sandals from Africa and Thai handbags. They serve complimentary tea from Tea Embassy and they have a small locker room where you can store your phone/purse/shoes/etc. There are clean, baggy pants, tees, and sandals provided in the locker room if you need them. Again, I adore Suzie and look forward to seeing her. She is very friendly and kind, with a soothing manner. Even with the 20-minute session I left feeling like I was floating. Of course, I would recommend at least 40 minutes to really benefit from the treatment. Oh and if you're in the service industry, you'll really love this place. Check it out on a Monday ;-) read more

Excellent way to destress, enjoying some reflexology to hands & feet, with a wonderful selection of add on essential oils of Spearmint mix that I personally selected. It went to the core of my senses. Also including a short touch to the scalp massaged as well. A hot tea treat afterwards. Tea was delish, 2 to select from, whatever the mix, was the best to end the day. Highly recommend ZenWell for overall atmosphere & the technicians doing a well deserved treatment I expected. read more

I came here for the first time for a quick 20 min chair massage on my way home from work. It was great. Lexi did a fantastic job! It was really easy to book an appointment same day. read more

I booked a 40 minute Thai massage and it was definitely really interesting. The room was great, and very comfortable. I felt totally relaxed. My therapist was kind and professional and had a good strong touch. I think going longer would be better though as 40 minutes flew by, and not enough time to zone out. There was more stretching than deep massage, which is what i called looking for. I would def come back here for more of a relaxation massage. Still on the look out for a good deep tissue place/person though! read more

I love a good chair massage, because you don't have to deal with the hassle of changing and getting on a table. Plus, it puts you in a position to really target tight shoulders. I just did an hour with Jaimee and she was great! I woke up with a crick in my neck and she was very good at concentrating on working it out. She works Sat-Tues. I will definitely make this my regular spot. Normally I go to Whole Foods, but this is the same price and in a quiet relaxing environment. read more

Had my first Thai massage with Lydia. She was great. Made me feel super relaxed and communicated through out to make sure I was comfortable. It was more of stretch/massage than a traditional massage. I feel great and loosened up. Will def be back. read more

Great first Thai Message thanks to Lydia! She communicated throughout and relieved 3 week old neck pain. Ps. Lydia gave me the ultmate Austin-insider Cedar Fever tips for allergies! read more

I lived with a highly talented massage therapist for years, so I'm not only spoiled but picky. I've never had a therapist work me out as well as Lisa did. And the ambiance of the spa is amazing. Do yourself a favor. Go get a massage here. read more

I had a massage here in May and it was amazing. I had never had a Thai massage before and was told it would be like having someone help your body do yoga without you putting in any effort. That being said I still want sure what to expect so I was a little nervous. The rooms were dark and spacious enough for my therapist to move about but small enough to make me feel comfortable and secure and the music was super peaceful and a bit trance like. Dawn was amazing. She checked in to make sure pressure was good and I can't believe she does this work all day as it is so physical. Her energy was smooth and comforting. I never wanted the massage to end. I was so relaxed and my body felt limber and stretched out and warm. I had to sit for a bit before I could drive home. I only got an hour, but next time I will opt for longer for sure. If you go for thai. Definitely request Dawn. read more

Amazing massage for an amazing price. Allison was great. I started with a chair massage and can't wait to go back to try the others. read more

I've been having some serious back pain for the past nine months and to be honest, I wasn't too sure I could get a good deep tissue massage from a chair. I was wrong. Claire is not only fantastic in her craft, but also very educating. She explained that by doing stretches on my own time, the muscles in my back would improve much quicker than just by going to the chiropractor and getting massages. She was also able to reach muscles that no other massage therapist had before. Claire seems to be very passionate and dedicated to what she does, which only makes me more comfortable in her hands. P.S. You MUST try their almond cookie green tea! read more

Just had my first chair massage and hand a foot reflexology. I do lash extension so i am alway sitting/slouching and working with my hands. this massage was great. i did the 20 min to try out the chair massage and hand and foot reflexology. both were great!!! i left feeling relaxed and refreshed. Im going to have to schedule this into my Wednesday routine ;) Bri is AMAZING ;) read more

I went to Zen Well on the morning when I was exactly 40 weeks pregnant and went into labor the next morning. My two other girlfriends also had the same experience. If you are trying to start labor and are 40 weeks pregnant don't hesitate to have reflexology done!! Three of us all went into labor the next day after coming here. I will be back next time I am pregnant for sure. Thank you SO much. read more

Great chair massage, very relaxing environment Easy online booking. Definitely go back to try other services they offer! read more

I had my first visit yesterday with Megan and oh my God! I can move again! My neck and shoulder pain is practically gone. I opted for a 60 min massage just because of the level of tightness I was experiencing. I work nearby, so I took a walk over there during my lunch. She was able to get every muscle to move and work and the entire experience was amazing. I did 30 minutes in the chair and 30 in the moon bed. I also received this fantastic scalp massage. I can't wait to go back. Yay for Megan! read more

Oh my goodness! I highly recommend this place. I don't think I have the vocabulary to describe how good this is. I have received various types of massage before but never a Thai massage. Hands down, it's the best I've ever had. And I hesitate to say how talented Stephen is because I'm afraid he'll get so busy I'll have a hard time getting an appointment. But he really is amazingly talented. He worked on me like I was PlayDoh! Slept like a rock that night! read more

Loved the Thai massage with Amy Joe Prince. My first of this type. The price is right and the it felt great! read more

Zen Well - Conveniently located at Brodie and William Cannon. - Reflexology Near Me - Austin, Texas

Well folks Katheen is amazing! If your looking for a gift a Thai Massage is the answer. Once again the person answering is just so nice. Thanks Kaitlyn! Now to the best part of my day. Katheen is simply is the best at what she does. She brings the world to a halt and makes your massage your personal vacation. Her movements have such a calming effect that allows you to reboot your day. She creates the perfect bliss because you just sense how much she cares about her Thai massage session. I was feeling a little out of control but after my session I felt nothing was beyond my reach! Thanks so much! And one final thought, Zen Well thanks for having such a great person on your team! read more

Updated review: I spoke to the asst. manager and she was great. She apologized and rebooked me with one of their senior massage therapists. This massage was excellent, very relaxing. read more

Now that's a massage and I can't wait to go back. Only Con is they're super busy so it's hard to get in for appointment.

I've been going to Zen Well for a couple of years and I'm never disappointed. It's so relaxing and everyone does a great job. I particularly love the chair massages because I'm able to get one on my lunch break if I need one during the week. I'd never had the Thai massages until I was pregnant and had a prenatal one. It was relaxing and I would recommend. I always love going to Zen Well. read more

Zen well is a hidden gem. And they usually have last-minute sessions, which I love. This is my go-to place for quick chair relief and I also do the Thai massage sessions. Therapists are super friendly and they have been really welcoming and organized since re-opening after Covid. Means a lot. read more
