had another wonderful experience at Balance Massage in Laguna Niguel, and once again they exceeded my expectations. This was my second visit, and the service was just as outstanding as the first. The owner is incredibly kind, welcoming, and truly cares about every client. The therapists are highly skilled, professional, and attentive, making sure you leave feeling relaxed, refreshed, and completely rejuvenated. The atmosphere is peaceful, spotless, and very inviting. If you're looking for a place that provides exceptional customer service and one of the best massages in the area, I highly recommend Balance Massage. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! Thank you to the owner and the entire team for another amazing experience. It was a pleasure taking a photo together today! read more

I booked a massage here through ClassPass as a birthday gift from my mom, who scheduled the appointment for me. While the massage itself was okay, the experience at checkout left me feeling extremely uncomfortable. As I was leaving, saying thank you and goodbye, the front desk staff stopped me in a way that felt confrontational and implied that I was doing something wrong by not leaving a tip. I was made to feel pressured and embarrassed, as if I were committing a crime. It was very uncomfortable. Because the appointment was booked and paid for in advance through ClassPass, I was not aware that gratuity was not included. Regardless, being pressured in that manner is not an appropriate or professional way to handle tipping. Tipping should be voluntary, not something a client feels forced into through intimidation. Unfortunately, this interaction overshadowed what was meant to be a thoughtful birthday gift and left a negative impression. read more

My partner got us a Groupon for 60-Min couples massage after a poor experience with a different spot nearby. When we arrived, we waited in the lobby for a few minutes while the receptionist was in the back. It was kind of awkward, but not a huge deal. She asked if we had any areas for them focus on, and took us to the room. The massage felt thorough and calming, and I left feeling relaxed. There were hot stones and oils, which were a nice addition. There wasn't much communication, but not necessarily in a bad way. I would come back! read more

I had the most amazing experience at Balance Massage!! Found an incredible deal on Groupon that included a 60 minute massage, 30 min facial & 30 min reflexology. This is the 2nd massage i've ever gotten and 1st facial i've ever gotten but this blew me away. Right away, the manager at the front desk was so warm and welcoming!! Mei handled the full body massage and was so kind and attentive to every single thing!! I swear she read my mind. Cece handled the facial & some massage and I left absolutely glowing. Everyone here was so sweet and lovely I couldn't help but smile. Head to toe I was glowing and felt amazing. They take such great care of you here. I will absolutely be coming back. read more

Best massage I've ever had and I've had quite a few massages. Truly I feel so much less stress in my shoulders and neck after today. The ambiance is relaxing and inviting, everything is very clean and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. As a mom of three, I was truly able to zone out and relax and for such a great price. Highly recommend. read more

Balance is such a nice massage and facial spa! Since I discovered them about a year ago, I have been at least six time and each time has been a great experience. Every therapist who works there is so good, kind and professional. They do a great job and you leave feeling relaxed and pampered. The decor there is modern, clean, and has a Zen like atmosphere. Definitely a high class Massage and Facial Spa. I have highly recommended them to all of my friends and family. read more

This afternoon, my sister, nephew, and I had 60-minute deep tissue massages. All three of us loved it. Our masseuses were very kind, accommodating (we were five minutes late), and good at their work. We all highly recommend Balance Massage and will return! read more

Found this place on Groupon and my experience was absolutely amazing! The pricing is reasonable and Lynda was my person, she changed the pressure as I requested. Aesthetically pleasing and clean the only thing I would suggest is offering water after the massage. read more

There's ample parking, which is convenient considering its location in a shopping center. The entrance is visually appealing, which surprised me since it's situated next to a market. The staff was incredibly friendly. My wife and I indulged in a 90-minute couples massage. While we've had massages at other places, I must say this was one of the best, if not the best, I've ever received. We'll definitely be returning. I highly recommend trying this location if you're seeking a great massage. read more

I love this place. They give such great massages. I've been around the world and had massages from resorts, luxury hotels, etc. and this is a great deep tissue massage. I've gotten massages from the owner as well as Cici and both did an amazing job. Reasonable pricing and excellent deep tissue skills. Highly recommend. read more

HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I found this parlor on Groupon because I was looking for a couples massage for my mom and I. The receptionist and Groupon both made it very easy to make an appointment. The Groupon was for an hour each but we did end up easily purchasing an additional 30 mins for each of us. The business itself is so clean and very cute. They tell you to arrive 10 min early and during the 10 min after check in they give you the option to sit in an amazing massage chair while they get the room ready for you which I have never encountered before and it was an awesome touch. The massage was honestly one of the best I've ever gotten and I have gotten so many in my life. They ask you for target areas and man do they get to them. I was very comfortable with the therapist and the massage really helped my frozen shoulders. They include oils, aroma therapy, hot stones and a scalp massage. This place does not disappoint. My mom and I looked at each other immediately after and were in complete awe of how good the massage was. We said that we would come back every other month if not every month because it was so relaxing and therapeutic! read more

I was given a gift certificate for an hour massage and hour facial. I took a friend and we arrived early and they welcomed us warmly. I found the atmosphere to be beautiful and very relaxing. My masseuse addressed areas I requested as well as my entire body. It was very relaxing and detailed. After my massage I enjoyed the facial which I've only had once before. Everyone was extremely helpful, polite and friendly. Theyvshiw immense appreciation for visiting them. Will definitely visit them again! read more

One of the best massages I've had in a while. I will definitely be back for another Swedish massage!

I redeemed my Father's Day gift through Groupon and it was a great experience! I got the 60 min massage, 30 min reflexology, and 30 min facial package. I had a fantastic massage by Wanda who felt where my muscles were tight at the very beginning. She then spent most of the time loosening them and it worked! She took her work very seriously and I appreciated that. I've never had a facial before but the experience was also great. My face felt clean, smooth, and bright afterwards. I'd definitely consider coming back, at least for another massage by Wanda. read more

This is probably the best massage I've had in America. May and her girls are amazing. Great price, super clean place, friendly staff, and the massage was excellent with both May and Lisa. Great pressure and effort. I will be back. read more

What an amazing couple message we just had with my wife. Emily and May had been spectacular and strong hands. My body needed it. The place is super clean, very well decorated and perfect lighting. I will highly recommended to anyone who is looking for best massage in OC. Thank you everyone and I can't wait to be back again! read more

I just had my very first massage, and from start to finish it was an incredible experience here at Balance! Wanda gave me a 1-hour Swedish massage and did an amazing job the entire time. She made me feel comfortable right away and really worked out all the tension, especially in my shoulders and back. I left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and so glad I finally treated myself. 1 hour flew by, definitely doing the 90min massage next time! Highly recommend Balance--and especially Wanda--for anyone looking for their next massage! read more

Amazing experience! All of the employees were super kind and the massage itself was lovely

Balance Massage is officially my new go-to spot for a massage! My partner surprised me with a 60 min couples Swedish massage for our anniversary, and we loved the experience. The lobby and massage room was spotless and had such a calming, aesthetic vibe. The front desk staff was very nice and accommodating, and our massage therapists were amazingggg!! They checked in often to make sure the pressure was right and really worked out the knots we didn't even know we had (this whole time I didn't know I had any, but it explains the tense back/shoulders haha). I loved the hot stone addition and my partner could not stop talking about the scalp massage - he loved how his hair felt very soft! We both felt very rejuvenated after our massage and we definitely plan on coming back in the future :) I'm already eyeing on a facial for our next visit~ read more

I found Balance Massage to be a lovely and serene environment which set the tone for my 90 minutes of relaxation after a stressful overseas trip. Linda did a deep tissue massage which was the best I have had anywhere. She has strong hands and really worked out the knots in my aching muscles. I walked out totally invigorated and will definitely be back as soon as I can. read more

Absolutely amazing experience! Both facials, and massages are professional, relaxing, and so wonderful! Mei makes sure that your time there is fabulous. read more

I slept wrong and woke up with a kink in my neck. I had a dull headache all day so I scheduled an appointment for a massage. Cici started my massage off a head massage with peppermint oil. I would typically decline having oil massaged into my hair but this was magic !! She also commented that my shoulders were tense. That is where I hold all of my stress. I could hear my knots moving back and forth, being broken down. I left so relaxed! I'm looking forward to my next appointment! read more

Not gonna lie! this place is beyond amazing! I called 30 min before my appt and they were able to get me in immediately! The lady on the phone and front desk was welcoming more than pleasant, professional and uplifting! great energy! MIA was one of the best massage therapist I have had! (and I use to own my own Spa!) the place is super clean professional and I HIGHLY recommend! I will be going back! and before I left the parking lot I let 5 friends know about the place!!! thank you for my massage! read more

To start, I am not even the biggest fan of massages. I got my fiancé and I an appt here because he needed something relaxing haha. We both had the most WONDERFUL, RELAXING massage experience. It was thoughtful and exactly what we needed. We don't even usually get massages, but after finding Balance Massage - we definitely will!! The masseuses' gave us perfect experiences for what our body needed. Peaceful, clean space in a nice area. So lucky we found this place! I'd suggest to anyone looking for a massage in the Laguna Niguel, San Juan Capistrano, Laguna Beach, Dana Point area! read more

I can't believe it took me this long to find this hidden gem in Laguna Niguel. Just got back from a deep tissue massage with Linda -- absolutely top shelf. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm, welcoming staff and an impeccably clean, calming space that instantly put me at ease. Linda is the real deal. She's not just skilled -- she's intuitive. Every knot, every stressed muscle was met with exactly the right amount of pressure and care. It wasn't just a massage; it was exactly what my body needed to reset and recover. I've been searching for a local provider who truly understands the body, and I finally found one. Highly recommended if you're looking for a true escape, expert hands, and a fresh start for your body and mind. Edited to note: I originally described it as a Swedish massage, but it was in fact a deep tissue massage -- my head was still in the clouds afterward. read more

In response to dissatisfaction with my previous experience, the owner reached out to me to make it right. She gave me a great, relaxing massage, and she was attentive to my needs the whole time. She's clearly passionate about her business and cares deeply about customer satisfaction. read more

Worst massage I've ever gotten. Came in to get a relaxing massage, specifically picking the Swedish massage for long strokes and deep relaxation. And it was the opposite of that. She spent more than half of the hour grinding her elbow into my shoulders and it was unbelievably painful. I regret not just leaving. Any sensitive areas like the shoulders, neck and hips she just dug into, with her elbow or fingers (and fingernails) and any spots you'd actually want pressure, she was soft. Clearly didn't have experience. ALSO what "fully body" massage doesn't massage feet or hands? And to top it off, the woman at the front desk then proceeded to rudely tell me how much I need to tip. Came out more tense and sore than when I walked in... I frequently get massages and can tell she probably doesn't even have a license, or shouldn't. read more

I've gotten many massages from different places, but this was by far the best one I've ever had! My partner and I came in for a couples massage, and everything about the experience was perfect -- the staff were so friendly, the environment was peaceful and relaxing, and the massage itself was incredible. Before we started, they asked if we had any areas we wanted to focus on. I always mention my shoulders, but most places just do their usual routine without spending extra time there. Not here! My masseuse was amazing -- she spent the majority of the time working on my shoulders and neck, used just the right amount of pressure, and knew exactly where my knots were. After that, she transitioned into a full-body massage that felt equally as great. The hot stones, scalp massage, and soothing aromas made it even better -- I highly recommend the lavender scent! Overall, such an amazing experience. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Fantastic ! Had a couples massage with my wife as part of our anniversary. It was perfect , probably the best massage I have ever had. The staff was friendly, the place is clean, quiet and peaceful. The therapist were very exact and very supportive. If, you have any physical issues they will work around them. I need to get this in the budget, dont hesitate its worth it. read more

I'm so bummed to write this review but I think people especially expecting mamas need to be aware before booking here. This was the worst massage I've ever had :( My girlfriend who treated me also agreed it was one of her worst. I'm 35 weeks pregnant, my friend is not and she booked us a massage as a "mother to be" treat for me. We ended up sharing a room so it was a "couples massage." This is proof that someone else was in the room who witnessed how horrible the massages were. I'll start with mine- I was so looking forward to this massage as I'm nearing the end of my pregnancy. I asked my therapist to specifically focus on my shoulders, t-band, and inner thighs (pregnant mamas IYKYK) she did not touch any of those areas. In fact, I asked THREE different times for more pressure and it never changed. The entire massage felt like someone was lightly rubbing lotion into my skin. She didn't even give a foot massage. To top it off, nearing the end of the massage she asked me to get on back?!??? Excuse me?? We spent 5 minutes trying different pillows so I could comfortably lay propped up. All the pillows were lumbar pillows so I had no head support. She continued to just rub lotion into my skin. I wanted so badly to just say forget it and finish but I didn't want to disrupt my gf's massage. The therapist I had was no way a professional masseuse, let alone should she be doing prenatal massages. Lastly, my girlfriend said her therapist was using her elbow most of the time and in her bone, she said the massage was erratic and not relaxing at all as she would go from her shoulders to arms to legs, back to her shoulders again. She said it was a very "jerky" massage. The gentleman at the front was very kind and gave us a 5% discount but I would have paid doubled for a massage where I left relaxed instead of wasting 90 minutes of my day :( read more

I went for the first time to Balance Massage for a Swedish massage recently and ended up with a massage that was definitely not a Swedish massage and was left feeling not relaxed and very unhappy. I had been so looking forward to this massage too but unfortunately "Cece" either does not have a massage license and/or does not understand what a Swedish massage is. It was not gentle soothing strokes. I hated the part when she used her elbow to dig into my upper back. It actually hurt and I had red marks on my back when I looked in the mirror when I got home! Any time a masseuse uses their elbow for massaging makes me feel like they are lazy and not wanting to use their hands which requires more effort. At one point she started to rub my face (I had makeup on) and started to rub my head (getting makeup on my hair). I told her I had makeup on so no massage on my face but that I liked it on my head. She must not understand English very well because she never massaged my head. If she was afraid of getting more makeup on my hair she could have just wiped her hands clean. She didn't massage my hands or feet which is something I would have really enjoyed. She was stretching my legs in extreme ways that my joints were popping and I am a pretty flexible person. It was not a good feeling. I think an older less flexible person would be in a lot pain as I was feeling some pain already. Before I went to Balance Massage, I was afraid that it would be like one of those cheap Chinese massage places but in a fancier setting and unfortunately, that is what it ended up being, but a Lot more expensive. Needless to say, I will not be going back to this place ever again. I had been so looking forward to this massage too since I had not had one in a very long time and even the next day I was feeling unhappy about the unpleasant experience overall. They need to invest in actual licensed masseuses who know what a real Swedish massage entails and not do made up stuff that feels unpleasant and no using elbows!! The only positive would be the place is decorated nicely but I am not going to pay a premium at a massage place for the setting, I am going for a great Massage! And after reading other people's negative reviews and one reviewer having had a bad experience with the masseuse using her elbows too, I know I am not the only one that had the bad treatment. read more

Had a deep tissue massage today and loved it! A very calming and pleasant experience. I would highly recommend it. I will definitely return soon. read more

I recently moved to Laguna Niguel from Dallas and after trying few other places I have definitely found my new massage spot! This place is AMAZING. Im very picky when it comes to massages and this place really checks off everything on my list. From the zen aesthetics, cleanliness and of course amazing masseuses. So happy I found them!! read more
