I've suffered from back problems for years. Recently, it got so bad, I was almost in tears. This week the pain was so bad, I couldn't sleep. I asked the friendly front desk person for a recommendation and so, I got matched up with Christine. Right away, I could feel the confident touch of a therapist who had been practicing for years. She walked me through the various points of tension in my back and did more for me in one hour than all the painkillers could do. I was able to relax so much I actually fell asleep during the massage! The facilities are great and it's an unbelievable value. I've been in spas in NYC that charge more than twice as much for a much worse experience. Unless you need irrelevant fluff (e.g. a cashmere robe, bunny slippers) to feel good about yourself, Massage Envy really should meet everyone's massage needs. For an extra $60-$80, you can have those extras at another spa somewhere but wouldn't you rather have 2-3 massages for the same price?
Pros: Everything from parking, to the therapist, and the facilities
Cons: Far from my home (but there are new locations coming!)
