STL MASSAGE and HEALTH L.L.C

As one of the earlier reviewers stated, you get what you pay for. I Purchased the Couple’s Massage on Groupon back in August. It took MONTHS to get an appointment. I was finally able to secure a Sat afternoon in Jan. With The amount of time it took to make a reservation (because they never answer the phone) I thought hmm this place must be poppin’! Quite the contrary. My boyfriend said his therapist apologized in advance if she wasn’t «able to get all the kinks out». This should’ve been a red flag. My therapist karate chopped my legs and back like he was a ninja, then used his elbow in my back. Now this was the first time for both of us, but when we left we both said, surely massage isn’t supposed to be painful. I felt like these were two young interns who needed to complete hours for their certification. I also didn’t like the fact that the female therapist jumped up on the table to apply a deeper pressure point, and then my boyfriend said she was massaging his chest and didn’t stand far enough away from his head when she was focusing on his neck, practically putting her private area on his head! She was waaaay to talkative for my taste. She also kept clearing her throat and coughed a few times without washing her hands or using a sanitizer. The sheets looked like the same sheets and blanket used by the people who went before us. We laughed about it after the fact, but both agree we will never patronize this place again. Save your money and go to a nicer place. I was fooled into thinking that because it was a Clayton address it wouldn’t be ratchet. Chile please, there’s a First and last time for everything, especially this!

Reading the other «not so pleasant» reviews, I couldn’t help but say out loud, «yes! That happened to us, too!» We’ve had a couple other massages. This experience was odd to say the least. You walk up a flight of stairs and have to follow the signs… no person to greet you, no real clue where you’re at. We kept thinking, is this someone’s apartment, where are we? We got this couples massage on Groupon. Note to self: pay the extra amount for a legit massage. I don’t want to know seconds before you come into our room that you were eating pizza so your breath might smell like ham and pineapple. I don’t want to be greeted by you and you have a snotty tissue in your hand. I don’t want to hear you clear your throat and sniffle throughout the ENTIRE massage. The oil, which was sparsely used, was ice cold. Why would anyone want cold oil rubbed on them. And use the oil please. They used maybe 2 pumps. Dry skin rubbing dry skin. My husband is a big guy. He can take some roughness. He told me this was the most painful experience of his life. We just kept saying afterwards what did we just do? I wish I was making this up. It was just so bizarre. And on top of this, I scheduled this appointment in December and confirmed with STL Massage the date and time. I got an email sent to my work email the day before it was scheduled that I’d need to confirm again or they will remove the appointment. What? We already confirmed this a month ago. What’s happening? Are we being punk’d?
The two individuals who gave us the massage were chatty, funny, very care-​free. Now those characteristics are great if we’re out for drinks, or perhaps at a social event. Not at work with paying customers. They seemed to not take this appointment serious. It was very, very unprofessional. No uniforms. My masseuse didn’t even wear shoes. Those 2 were SO relaxed at their job, it was very difficult for my husband and I to relax.

I had an excellent experience at STL Massage. I purchased a living social voucher for a couples massage for $ 60. The massage was 50 minutes and Chris and Cynthia were incredible. They made us feel comfortable and were very professional. The facility is clean and relaxing. We plan on buying a massage book in order to come back and get excellent massages for a great deal!
One thing to note– they do not have a credit card machine so bring cash to tip on the full worth of the voucher ($ 90).

My husband and I went there for a couples massage we had Chris and Cynthia ! They were both amazing !!! Made us feel right at home and comfortable! I had several tension points and knots in my neck and back and I now feel great! Same with my husband ! We will be returning!

Terrible experience. I made reservations for a couples massage months in advance and confirmed the day 24 hours in advance. When I got there on time, only 1 therapist was there saying there was a mix up and that no other therapist was contacted to come in. This is completely unprofessional as we accommodated our day around this massage. Try to find a more professional location if you can. I do not recommend this place to anyone.

We recently went for a couple’s massage and it was mediocre at best. We get regular therapy so for us low standard therapy was not acceptable, it felt like a sweat shop to me. Nobody there to greet you when you walk up the steps, read the signs and wait. The tables had polyester sheets directly on the vinyl table without any padding or heat, no aromatherapy, no hair bands, and no rugs on the floor which is essential for sanitary purposes. It took the Therapists over 10 min. to come into the room and they stopped our session almost 10 mins. early. The Therapists were conversing and laughing throughout the massage and just felt it wasn’t professional enough. We both said we could not get into that relaxed state of letting go.
Honestly, we thought it would be a nice couple’s thing to do, but now we know we are greatly spoiled by our regular massage therapy place at A Healing Place Massage for Wellness in Richmond Heights and we will continue to go there, the Therapists are highly trained, the place is clean, the bathroom is beautiful, the tables are warmed and the aromatherapy is always included, the second you walk in you feel an amazing healing energy there which was really missing from STL Massage. One last note they did this head scratching thing at the end that was aweful for like 5 – 7 mins., not massaging or pressure points but head scratching, they need to learn to connect and take their time a bit more.
Sorry to say, even at Groupon pricing it was a waste of money and time for sure. Disappointed but you do get what you pay for!

Enjoyed a couples massage for hubby’s birthday. Very relaxing and the prices are super! His back had been bothering him for a couple weeks and he says he’s painfree now! Would definitely recommend!

Wow! The massage I’ve been waiting for! I wasn’t exactly expecting too much as I’ve been let down by some top massage places, so I was more than pleasantly surprised. My husband and I went in for a couples massage and we got Katie and Theresa for our masseuses. They were both fantastic. Very professional with the perfect touch. My husband usually has a hard time finding a masseuse that will use the right pressure and he didn’t have to ask her to be more firm at all.
The waiting room and office were just whatever but the massage room was fantastic. Nice and warm, great lighting, relaxing. Anything that office and waiting room lacked Katie and Theresa more than made up for. Honestly I’d rather get the great value they offer and wait in a plain waiting room! The prices are VERY reasonable!
It was a wonderful experience!
