Massage Envy

Ref. : http://spas.about.com/od/savingatthespabasics/a/MassageEnvy.htm


Massage Envy is a franchised chain that caters to people who want the benefits of regular massage at an affordable price -- $49 or $59 for a massage. Massage Envy Spas also offer facials, which cost $59 or $69.

There are currently 620 Massage Envy locations in 42 states (120 of them Massage Envy Spas_ and more on the way. Arizona, California, Texas, New Jersey and Florida have the most Massage Envy locations.

Since Massage Envy is growing so fast I dispatched myself, an admitted the massage freak, to the nearest one -- the Massage Envy in Beverly Hills. I’m accustomed to the luxe day spa massages, so I was skeptical at first. But I found a friendly staff, a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere and I got a great massage at a little more than half the price of a spa massage.

Of course at this great price I got fewer amenities -- no private relaxation rooms, no fluffy robes, no private lockers or showers. But the heated massage table was so relaxing I just sank into it. And there was a “quiet room” where I waited for my therapist to come fetch you.

How Does Massage Envy Work?

Massage Envy offers an introductory massage for the special rate of $39 or $49, depending on the location. If you decide to become a member, you give your credit card number and agree to be charged for one massage a month for twelve months. You can get additional massages for $39 or $49 (or a facial for $49 or $59). You can also use your monthly payment towards a facial at Massage Envy Spas.

What If I Can't Come One Month?

If you miss a month, the credit rolls over to the next month. You can also use it at any Massage Envy location. And you can put a "freeze" on your account up to six months for any reason.

You're allowed to cancel the agreement if you move to a location that is more than 25 miles from a Massage Envy, or if you have a letter from your doctor.

How Good Is The Massage at Massage Envy?

That depends on the massage therapist you get -- their experience, talent and how much they care. All the therapists are professional and licensed. Spend some time talking to the receptionist to find a therapist to suit your needs.

Massage Envy recruits from massage schools, so you are more likely to get an inexperienced therapist fresh out of school. But Massage Envy also has some highly experienced therapists who work at Massage Envy because they stay busy and see clients on an ongoing basis. You can request a more experienced therapist if it's important to you.

How good a massage is also depends on the fit between the client and the therapist. Even if you aren't totally wowed by your introductory massage, it might be worth it to join and try out different therapists until you find a massage therapist you like.

Once you've found the right fit, try to make a standing appointment. This works well because they can get to know your body and what you need. The most popular therapists also book up quickly, so you might need a standing appointment to get the therapist you want.

What Kind of Massage Do They Offer At Massage Envy?

Massage Envy a whole range of massage types, including Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, sports massage,reflexology and trigger point therapy, hot stone massage, pre-natal massage, chair massage and geriatric massage. This encourages you to try different modalities and to address long-standing problems.

How Much Should I Tip At Massage Envy?

At these affordable prices you’ll want to keep your therapist happy. Ten dollars is considered the bare minimum, $15 typical, and $20 generous.
