"I've been here twice, and both of my experiences were fantastic. I was made to feel comfortable the whole time. I'm extremely stiff and tense from years and years of bad posture and sleeping on floors/chairs/desks/you name it as a stressed out student, and needed a deep tissue massage. My first massage was 45 minutes with Kendra, who knew exactly where I was feeling the most tense--in my shoulders and neck. She worked on my legs and all around took me to another world. My second massage was an hour with Katie Rae, who worked some serious magic with her full body massage. She took extra time on my shoulders and neck, and I walked out feeling like all my knots were worked out and tension released."

"First time visiting Mantis Massage and I will definitely come back! Katie was absolutely excellent - she took the time to ask questions to learn about my body, pain, the reason I was visiting and then delivered a relaxing massage which honed in on the specific points we discussed in our chat. I felt 10 pounds lighter afterward; time flew by! Not to mention it was very affordable! Thanks again for the great experience."

"I am a nurse and finally had a day off after 4 in a row, looking for some serious pain relief. My back was hurting and all my stress was in my shoulders. I googled the closest massage place and came across Mantis. It's kinda tucked away in the back of a convenient store so you wouldnt know it was there. But luckily reviews online were great. Kate (or katie...) was my therapist ! She listened to my needs and told me a bit about cupping. Ive never tried It but she made me feel comfortable about it. I booked a 45 min massage and was the best i've had this year! (I've been to alot of spas). I am definitely going back to see her and go for 60 min instead! She was also educational in the end and told me how to stretch certain areas"

"Outstanding massage. Krysten listened carefully to my issues then focused her work to address those. I have been experienced chronic low back pain and hip restriction. After the massage, what a world of difference; no pain!"

"Katie Rae at the South Congress location was the most knowledgeable masseuse I've ever met -- she answered all the anatomical questions I had and worked magic on my various tense muscles. I had sprained my ankle recently and it was still stiff and painful, and somehow after Katie worked on it, my full range of motion in my foot was restored and it didn't hurt to twirl it around anymore. Like I said, magic!"

"I was in great hands - literally - with Hunter as my masseuse. I felt very safe with their Covid procedures, and like a brand new person after my massage. I have scoliosis, and have had bad experiences in the past with masseuses not understanding that and causing pain. Hunter erased any concerns I had by knowing the anatomical groups of muscles and vertebrae that were giving me trouble, never caused me pain, and I could not recommend them enough!"

"I went in for the first time on Sunday. I was sore from a new exercise regimen, plus I just wanted to relax with a massage. My massage was with Cori, and it was excellent. The massage begins with a consultation. Cori had me fill out a basic form, and then I was asked about any problem areas. I mentioned that I often have back pain and that my arms were sore from some recent workouts. After getting on the table, Cori noted that I was holding a lot of tension in the shoulders as well. For that reason, we focused almost entirely on my upper body. I felt great. Afterward, Cori shared some stretches which might benefit my chest, back, and shoulders. I appreciated that. I cannot speak for the other members of the staff, but if they are anything like Cori than you will easily get your money's worth. This was a tailored massage experience; it was exactly what I needed. The studio is clean and calm. That's all I really need."

"Hilary gave me a wonderful deep tissue massage with ashiatsu. I came in with a locked up neck and back and she worked the tension out of my muscles. She asked me about the pressure a few times just to make sure I was comfortable. I will definitely come and see her again!"

"I'm so glad that I came here and saw Bex. She pinpointed exactly the problem spot that was causing the mobility issues!! I can't begin to say what a relief it is to know how to fix a problem. She even gave me some tips on how to help relieve it at home. Additionally, Bex gives a proper deep tissue massage--she knows how to manipulate the body to access various points and to help release tension. I ended coming back several more times because I was so impressed, and simply just needed the stress relief. Thanks, Bex!"

"I got a prenatal massage with Sparkles. I went in with rib pain, and she was determined to help me get better. Also, I felt safe during Covid. Highly recommend. I will be back."

"I explained the pains that come from sitting at a desk 10+ hours a day plus a recurring issue in my left shoulder area. That was all I needed to say, and Bex got straight to work on my very sore back. Oh man, the stretching, bending, pressure, everything was just glorious! She got deep in my trouble areas and worked out so much tension. Aside from being slightly sore the next day (which as a fan of firm pressure massages, I expected to be) I feel AMAZING! Bex, you are my new BFF."

"What a fantastic place! I made an appointment to help relieve tension in my body after a 20-hour drive and left feeling fantastic. Everybody was very professional and courteous. I will definitely be back."

"Really enjoyed my 60-min massage. My neck and shoulders are significantly more relaxed and I'm looking forward to incorporating regular massages to combat the tension I often experience in that area."

"I have fasciitis, joint, pectoral, rotator cuff, hip issues, you name it. After the first session I had relief in places I haven't had relief in years. Tip these folks very WELL! You cannot put a price on your health and they are there to support just that!"

"This was hands down the best massage I've ever gotten. Syd was incredible. My body is full of knots and decades of built up stress from food industry work and heavy powerlifting workouts. But the amount of pressure on the deep tissue massage and trigger point work combined with the limb and joint movement made working thru my knots and sore spots so much better and manageable. Even with the pressure I felt because my knots are super dense, the way Syd worked thru them, I never wanted the massage to end."
