Massage Envy – West Flamingo

When the massage changes the course of your life. I won’t even reveal the name of the therapist because they’re already too booked up! Changed man I am!

I’ve been in this tango of if I wanted to keep my membership or not due to experiences at other locations. But after I go to the flamingo one they always win me back. The center is clean, relaxing, and just what you want after having different stresses. I went in there for a facial last night and my skin has never looked more glowing. Janet was very sweet!

NOW, I hate to go to this place, but I have to go there due to the membership contract!!! Recently, there was one thing happened so ridiculous. My regularly payment is automatically charged on 16^th every monty. This monty, my roommate wanted to go with me so, I tried to make an appointment for us that we could make the facial service at the same time, and there was no available schedule after 16^th October, then I made appointments at 13^th October at 2PM. However, the day before we went to the place, they told my friend that they reschedule my friends’ time at 1pm, and it totally destroyed our plan for 13^th October. In addition, they needed me to pay after the facial service that day, and I asked if I paid that day i would not be charged again on 16^th, and the assistant said yes. But on 16^th October, I just realized they automatically charged me again. I called them and they told me that, because I made the appointment before the regularly payment day that will be regard as extra monthly service, and I have to make appointment again on this month.
First, because this place does not have available schedule for us, so I made the appointments before the regularly payment day, and the assistant did not told me I would be charged twice. Second, they changed the schedule and did told me, do they know it would influence the customer’s life?!! Third, they did not explain the service on 13^th October was extra service not the regular service, and I have to pay for it. Fourth, all the front desk assistant are not professional because they did not explain well to customer especially the things related to money, it seems like what they all wants is customer’s money. I highly recommend everyone, if you want to go here, first please prepare to patience for the assistants persuade you to join the membership, second please prepare the patience for the endless disputes and disappointments. I would never recommend all my friends came here again.

Went here with my husband and we had a couples massage (it was our first time doing so) and our experience with everyone was wonderful. From the check in to the checkout A+, the only thing I noticed was like many reviews also commented was the push to get a membership. But it wasn’t too bad, the gals were very professional in appearance and demeanor. My masseuse, daysha, was amazing! She focused on my trigger points with the right pressure and it felt great! I’m definitely coming back.

Awesome massage by CJ! I am definitely coming back with my girlfriend. Thank you CJ! :)

So happy I found this place as my new home for facials! Nicole will forever be the therapist that touches my face! Nicole is not only gentle and amazing at her technique, her knowledge of skin and product is on point. The venue is nice and staff very professional. Pricing is so reasonable I am able to spoil myself with relaxation and always leave with goodies!

if u really want a massage therapist that knows what he’s doing, ask for Dan Marsh. he will work on your troubled areas like theres no tomorrow. he sincerely knows what are you doing and give an amazing massage. he is definitely one of the best massage therapist in Vegas. I’ve had massages at the Bellagio and none compare to the massage I get from Dan Marsh

I just left Massage Envy, and my appointment was with Socrates… Let me tell you how Amazing he was!!! I have a lot of neck and back issues, I really wouldn’t have had to even tell him I did, because he felt them there on his own, but after an hour and a half I felt like a new person, and he asked me to give him 3 times just to get things back in order… Well, I will be going every 2 weeks for sure, what a prize he is, so humble and happy that he can help you to feel better.

CJ puts me back together once a month. I’ve had hundreds of massages. His natural intuition and healing hands work magic on my pain. I have the beginnings of carpal tunnel and I’ve had chronic pain half of my life. He understands body mechanics and chakra balancing, so I always leave feeling refreshed, balanced and grounded.

When my regular massage therapist up and moved to Oregon after I was her client for 10+ years, I went in search of a new one. Thanks to my BeastMode bestie Suzy H. for referring me to Socrates, the deep tissue expert here at Massage Envy. I used to only get Swedish massage, that relaxing type involving more kneading, sliding, gliding, and sometimes falling asleep (me, not the therapist). This is NOT what Socrates is known for, so be aware. I was informed (or maybe ‘warned’ is the better word) that the deep tissue massage that he does can be a little intense. I knew I needed it, though, because when I first started going to him, I was training for a half marathon and my muscles were all sorts of sore and Suzy said Socrates’ massages were very therapeutic for the kind of training we do.
I was a little anxious about my first session with him because I also have some sensitive areas on my back due to an old injury, which my regular therapist knew about after years of massaging me. Socrates and I discussed this before we got started as well as what kind of activity I did, what I was training for, and specific areas he should target. It was definitely a massage that focuses on the fascia and releasing tension around the muscles, so I wouldn’t call this type relaxing at all. When he gets into the tissue that is tight, you may have to take deep breaths while he works on those areas; there is no napping going on here. However, it works and I’ve been back to Socrates several times since. He’s a very nice man who reminds me of a Filipino uncle, except that I don’t want any of my own uncles massaging me. He’s very popular so I make appointments as soon as I can for the next month I’m there.
If you are interested in Swedish massage, I recommend Patricia. She has such a soothing touch that I did snooze a little during a session with her. I have decided that I’m good with alternating between her and Socrates so I can get the best of both massage worlds: relaxing/​soothing and more sports therapy/​deep tissue.
I was skeptical about joining Massage Envy, but I did after I had used a gift card for my first session with Socrates and figured out that he could be my regular therapist. I have a one year membership that costs $ 59.99 monthly which entitles me to one hour session monthly. With tip, I still pay less than I did with my former therapist, but she did make house calls, so it all washes out in the end. You don’t need to be a member if you want a massage here, so if you’re looking for some therapy, check them out.

I googled CARPAL TUNNEL MASSAGE and Massage Envy popped up. I don’t have carpal tunnel, but I may be on the road to there. I sit at a computer all day, and my wrists and forearms have been killing me! It’s to a point where I wake up in the night because of the aches.
While scheduling my appointment the receptionist was nice enough to answer my questions and make sure to schedule me with a masseuse who was specialized in sports injury and trigger points. So I got an appointment with TOMMIE.
She is hands down amazing! We talked about where the focus of attention was for my massage, and we both agreed that she would only be working on my arms, shoulders, and some of my back. She massaged me in places I didn’t even know I was sore or had knots. She worked my wrists and forearms getting rid of most of the knots and the wrist popping! I was VERY IMPRESSED by her. I would recommend her to anyone who has aches and pains from computer work. I honestly signed up for a membership just because of Tommie. I don’t want to end up spending money on a surgery because I didn’t take care of my wrists ahead of time. I mean I’m paying for a great hour massage and prevention of carpal tunnel!
The hustle and bustle of the front area when I was there was a bit un-​calming. Maybe because I was there first thing in the morning and they were all trying to get settled out. I saw they have a «relaxation area.» Not sure if it’s for members, because I wasn’t informed about it when I entered. I saw it while walking towards my room.
I know Massage Envy is different in all locations and the masseuses are always changing. But when you find that one masseuse that changes all that, you know it’s a great place. Tommie made my massage at Massage Envy amazing!

I had high hopes for this place and was really looking forward to making it my regular spot to get massages and facials. Unfortunately, I had a less than favorable experience here and I don’t think I will be going back. Everything went on smoothly up until the last parts. First of all my massage was only 50 minutes and not the 1 hour I had paid for, I know this because there is a clock by the massage table and I looked at the time when she came in. Towards the end I started feeling weird, shortness of breath like an allergy coming on. After I got dressed I went immediately to the bathroom, and yup when I looked at the mirror my eyes were swollen and blood shot. All I wanted was to get out of there to get home and take some Benadryl but instead they had my mom and I wait so they could try to sell us a membership. I asked them what kind of lotions they use as I was trying to figure out what caused the allergic reaction. It was a turn off that it seemed more of a priority on their end to sell us the monthly membership than the welfare of their clients. I told them, how could I think of coming back if every time I come I would have allergies possibly due to the lotion they use. They said I could bring my own. Ummmm NO thanks. They did apologize and gave me samples of another lotion and oil they use as an alternative, but I would not risk it. They also said they were going to call me the following day to check on me, 4 days later still no call.

I called and made an appt about 5 days ago, was looking forward to a massage all week. I received a voicemail about an hour and a half before my massage telling me my therapist called out and that, if I wanted they had someone else available for me. Awesome, I call them back about 30 min later, now an hour before my massage to say that was fine, I’ll take the other therapist, just to find out that they booked that person already. Wow, thanks. If someone calls out, you don’t have someone else come in and cover their appointments that day? You give me the option for someone else then book that person??? That’s bullshit. Don’t worry, the rainbow location was happy to take me. I’ll use them from now on.

I was there on vacation and was able to get an appointment last minute, which was good. My therapist was ok, her name I think was Nicole. She did talk my ear off though, ha ha. So much for relaxing.
The thing that irritated me was that I took a cab. When I called and asked questions they said it would be no problem getting back, but it was. I guess certain cabs can’t go out that way. So I had to sit for an hour and wait. Not my idea of fun while on vacation. Also, the can fair there and back was pricey, so prob not worth going out there.

I believe my therapist was Nicole. I had a one hour massage and we did not start on time, but somehow ended at exactly the one hour mark. Massage envy has yet to impress me with quality of their services. I did appreciate the cleanliness of the massage rooms, bathrooms, & friendliness of the staff. My therapist was okay, but nothing to rave about.

Nicole is simply amazing. I have been a member for approximately 4 yrs and Nicole is the best masseuse I’ve had. She is detailed and hit all my problem areas. It feels like treatment not just a massage.

All I can say is Socrates is the best! I see him once a week for my chronic aches and pains. He always listens to my complaints about where I hurt and I always leave feeling brand new. It’s the little things that count such as wiping off the massage oil as best as he can once done, the stretching and aroma therapy when massaging your scalp. Don’t be fooled by his size and kind face, Socrates has very powerful hands. The best deep tissue massage you will receive!

Let me introduce you to the other man in my life: Socrates. Every 2 weeks, we meet in a darkened room with some Yanni playing in the background. He goes to work on the knots in my back. I cry a little. Sometimes I snooze. I may even drool on occasion. It is a relationship that works.
Seriously, if you enjoy regular massages, you will not get more bang for your buck then a membership with massage envy. I’ve been to several locations (including in other states) and rarely had a bad massage. For a small fee you can substitute a facial instead of a massage or add extra time to your allotted hour. An hour goes by fast, so I usually pay extra to add a ½ hour. Massage Envy also does promotions and you can take advantage of deep discounts or freebies. I’m a very satisfied customer.
If you enjoy a deep tissue massage, Socrates is your man. Just don’t take my regular appointment.

I have been going to Massage Envy for a few years now. I actually bounce around to different locations because that’s how I roll. Actually, it just depends on which Grandma is watching my daughter for me.
I have been to this particular location several times. I like this location because it has a nicer staff than some of the other locations I have been too. I have also been quite pleased with every masseuse I have had. They seem to be of a higher quality than some of the other locations. It’s also pretty easy to get to, being right off of the 215 and Flamingo. The quiet room here is also very relaxing and really helps you get into the massage mood. You know what I mean, whether it is ahhh, namaste, ohm, the room just gets you ready for your massage.
The only downside is the parking. The way this strip mall is situated, the parking area can really get packed if you go at the wrong time. There are a lot of stores, restaurants, fast food, and other things all around the area. Keep that in mind if you are heading in during the lunch or dinner rush, to make sure you have enough time to get in, in case you have to park far away.

5 stars for Socrates!
He really does care about the well-​being of his clients and works especially hard to make sure whatever is ailing you is addressed during your session. I always thoughts 60 minutes was enough, but with Socrates, I opt for 90 minutes of relaxation (with the occasional snoring on my part). I end up paying more because of how the membership system works if I want more than 60 minutes, but it’s definitely worth it. I’m really glad I did end up getting this membership.
The first time we came to this location for a massage for my boyfriend’s birthday, we actually both did not like the massages we received. Bree at the front desk (who I think is the most pleasant and helpful person working the front) was patient with us as we made the decision to get a membership, and we both opted for Kelly (boyfriend’s therapist) and Socrates for our next massages. We haven’t changed our therapists since and always try to book a head so we don’t end up with anyone else. Tip well, they deserve it!
