I have to say that I started out VERY skeptical about the Massage Envy franchise. My worries were about ambiance, the cheapness of the price (would it equate to sub-par massage therapists?) and most especially about the possibility of high pressure tactics to buy into the membership. I've now been there twice and have nothing but good things to say!
Both therapists were absolutely fabulous, but my favorite is Misty. Amazing massage and she was blessedly silent. I have a 13 year old that I home school and am home with 24/7, so an hour and a half of silence was worth it's weight in gold. :) The great massage was a bonus.
The reception staff is very professional and not at all high pressure about the membership. In fact, other than being asked if I knew about the membership package (which I did) they never again mentioned it. I had to specifically ask to join on my 2nd visit. No high pressure here!
And the ambiance is very, very relaxing....soothing colors, calming music, unobtrusive fragrances, dimmed lights, comfy furniture in the waiting areas. All positives!
So give 'em a call and try a really reasonable massage...you won't be disappointed!!
