Massage Envy Spa

Can you think of an activity that allows you to lie down and do absolutely nothing for an hour except to relax?  I can. Getting a 60- minute massage is one of the most successful stress relievers out there.

At Massage Envy, a chain of spas that has tons of locations close to campus, the staff goes above and beyond in order to give you the best massage that is right for you.  With locations in Farmingdale, Merrick, Commack, Massapequa, Port Washington, and Plainview, among others, it is almost impossible not to find one that is convenient for you.  When you make an appointment at Massage Envy, they will ask you to arrive 15 minutes prior to the appointment so they can customize your massage.  This means that they will ask you to fill out questions about why you are getting a massage or if there are any specific painful areas on your body.  Most people get massages in order to relieve stress, relax, manage pain, loosen muscles, or even to improve flexibility; so, it is important that you tell your masseuse exactly what you would like to get done.  There are many different types of massages to choose from, ranging from deep tissue massages, which target knots and muscle tension, to Swedish Massages, which are the most popular.

When I got my massage at Massage Envy in Farmingdale, I was very satisfied.  The massage room was set up perfectly in order to relax. The lights were dimmed and calming music was playing lightly in the background. The best part was that the massage bed was heated!  My masseuse was extremely polite, and I felt calm and relaxed after it was over.

At an affordable price, new customers can receive a one-hour introductory massage session for only $49.00. The regular price for a massage is $99.00, or you can become a member and pay a monthly rate of $59.00.  With this membership plan, you can receive a massage once a month.  The prices remain the same within each outlet. If massages aren’t your thing, Massage Envy Spas located in Plainview, Port Washington, Commack, and Massapequa offer facials, which are a great way to treat your skin to a pleasant surprise.
