Will charge you $100+ for a half-baked woo woo exam, send you home hurting worse than when you walked in, and then send you a bill saying you owe them another $100+. For better results, light your wallet on fire while banging your head against a wall. Recommended for masochists and people with way too much money. read more

This company is predatory. I paid to have monthly massages, but when my masseuse moved away I was informed that I would be billed again for a cancelation fee... I didn't even schedule a massage, it's just to cancel the monthly payments! She even told me that if I didn't get the "cancelation paperwork" in soon that I would be billed again! I called and said I wanted to cancel, why in the world do I have to turn in paperwork? Just stay away from this place! read more

Barkley Massage & Chiropractic - You can't cancel over the phone. - Massage Therapy Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

See all

I had a massage with Matt. He talked the whole time and made me feel very uncomfortable. I will not be returning for any massages with him.

Excellent customer service and very easy booking/payment process thanks you guys for taking such good care of him! read more

Unprofessional practice with a revolving door of employees. Where do I start; I had a massage membership and had enjoyed few massages there until I realized the travel from Everett was not worth it- and cancelled my membership (in person) at the beginning for 2021. And all was good. Then few months later, my credit card is being charged again: I had some accumulated massages so I when I went in the following week, I cancelled it again. Be aware- Do not put a credit card on file. Secondly: You find a masseuse- you build rapport. They know your history and work in getting to the root of the problem, only to have them leave the practice. You aren't notified until you realize you can't book them any longer. Which means, in a membership- likely your credit card has been charged. So you find another masseuse (maybe reluctantly) only to have his schedule booked (or at least his availability not open) for months. So you resort to a third (in my case final) masseuse. Weeks in advance, you look forward to it- the day comes, you live 1.5 hours from the office. You start driving there, get half way only to be told that your masseuse called in sick and my appointment is cancelled. You're offered a pitiful "discount" and a 4th masseuse at an even further office (Lynden). You reach out to the owner, and lead chiropractor Todd both via phone call, and email to only be told that they will not offer any refunds on the 4+ massages I've already paid for. Get told that I won't be charged if my masseuse cancels (but reading these other reviews, says differently) and that there's nothing he will do. So if you like to flush money down the toilet than this is the perfect place for you. Todd informed me in email, that if you say your sick- they won't charge you for the appointment (but Im not sure he's telling the full truth) should you want to cancel on them, extremely late notice like they did on me. If you don't mind a new masseuse each time, than this is the place for you. and if you like having your credit card on file- to be charged at random than you will certanily like this place.

Giving Barkley Massage & Chiropractic a 5-star review doesn't even begin to recognize them for the phenomenal job that they do. Under unfortunate circumstances (car accident), I was advised to get treatment by way of massage therapy and chiropractic care to assist in my recovery. As a frequent visitor to the Barkley district, I decided to give this spot a try - and I am so glad that I did. I first would like to recognize Matt, my massage therapist. If it is possible to be both a wizard and a magician in his industry, he is that person. I went from hobbling around in life with an injured hip, to once again feeling spry and ready to do the splits (which I cannot do btw). He is educated, meticulous, thoughtful, and kind - and that is all on top of being the legitimate best massage therapist I have ever been to. I also have to speak about Dr. Luther. It is clear that he cares about his patients, and cares about running an excellent business. The cleanliness of his space, the kindness of his staff, and the promptness in which he keeps his appointments is something that this busy person (me) really, really, appreciates. I can't say enough nice things about Barkley Massage & Chiropractic, so instead of listening to me, you should go in and see for yourself read more

I haven't had many massages in the Bellingham area, but have already decided that I'll be a regular here. I bought a Groupon, which only saves you about $2 if you're a new client or a monthly member. At $67 I decided this was worth a try. The facility is clean and relaxing. The receptionist was helpful and able to answer any questions that I had regarding monthly massages. My hour long relaxation massage was with Cody. He performed one of the best massages that I've ever received. Cody is friendly, has a heavy hand, and really knows what he's doing. He was able to identify tight areas and instruct me in a few stretches to perform independently. Following this first visit, I committed to a monthly massage without hesitation. It's slightly discounted with massages accruing if you don't make it in. I'm already looking forward to my next massage. read more

In the area for a while and had hurt myself doing more hiking than I was used to. Booked online and was a quick and painless process. Location was easy to find and the reception was warm and friendly. Therapist was professional and knowledgeable and used different modalities for my massage. For a non "day-spa" the environment was perfect, low lighting and nice music, appreciated the lotion used was unscented. Will return! read more

Today, I saw Dr. Luther and he was awesome. Not only is he knowledgeable, he is quick, efficient and knows what he is doing! I felt like my back was in great hands. After he adjusted my back (due to stress from work and school), I felt like I could breathe well again. Last week, I received a massage from Katie and it was amazing. She asked me what area bothered me and then told me what she was going to do before she started the massage session. After the massage, she handed me a cup of water. Both of my experiences (massage and chiropractic) were amazing and I will definitely be going there next time. read more

I have visited multiple times for massages now. The massage therapists there have been very knowledgeable, and have asked detailed questions before my massage to target the areas I needed relief from. The facility is very clean, and there is a very professional feel throughout the building. All staff has been friendly and helpful, I would highly recommend a massage from here. Thanks Matt for being so welcoming and for giving me a great experience! read more

Today I went and visited Dr. Tim Moore, I have been searching for a chiro for awhile! He was incredible, compassionate, honest, explained everything he was doing, he really listened to my concerns and needs and was very in tune with my body. I can not recommend him enough! read more

Okay. I know this place is new but... are you ready.... Reception.. cold.. no personality. Check in, fill out paperwork and wait. Nothing to look at, nothing to read. Massage.. therapist did not pay attention to what was needed. Sheet I filled out indicated areas that need work..ignored... did the standard full body massage. Now, the two stars is because the therapist was good at the massage, she just needed to listen to what I wanted and not what was the standard. And every massage place knows to provide water post massage.. I didn't even see masseuse afterwards..For the price I paid, for what is available in Bellingham, get your back adjusted but try someplace else for the massage. They have a ways to go to make this place somewhere people would want to return to. I wish them luck. read more

I'm conflicted about how many stars to give. The massage in and of itself was totally fine. I wish she'd listened a little more when I explained where I wanted extra attention. But she was really strong and did a good job overall. However, I booked a 90-minute session and was massaged for only 70 minutes. She started 10 minutes late and finished 10 minutes early. I commented at reception, and they did give me $10 off, but it seems like I should have gotten a deeper discount considering the overall cost and the fact that the massage was 20 minutes short. When I commented, in addition to offering the discount, reception did advise me that they build into every appointment 10 minutes of non-table time for changing. I wish I'd known that ahead of time. I work hard for my $$$ and this was a special treat. I expected the 90 minutes of treatment that I booked. My sis has worked in the industry for over 20 years and I ran this all by her. She's never heard of a client having to pay to change their clothes. Her words: "a 90-minute massage is 90 minutes". So that makes me feel less bad about feeling disappointed and short-changed. So I guess if you want a decent massage, sure go to these folks, but don't expect to be on the table for the full time you booked. Next time I'm going somewhere where you get what you pay for time-wise. You probably should too. read more

After a death in the family my wife scheduled an hour massage to reduce my stress. I showed up at my appointment time and was told I didn't have an appointment. After showing them my confirmation e-mail absolutely nothing was done to remedy the situation. I travel all around the US for work and I've never seen a more poorly run spa or massage business. I'll drive the extra 15 minutes to the Chrysalis Spa. read more

Dr Todd Luther always does a great job with my adjustment. When I leave there, my body feels great. We drive up from Seattle just to see him in Bellingham because he is that good. He truly cares about your well being. He always uses the best methods to align your body properly. read more

Dr. Luther and the team at Barkley Massage and Chiropractic are simply amazing! They are friendly, personable and genuinely care about my overall health, not just my business. They offer convenient appointment times and are staffed well enough to accommodate my crazy work schedule even on short notice. The level of service is incredible and their commitment to excellence is evident. I highly recommend them and look forward to many more happy appointments with them to reach my health goals. read more

I went to Barkley for massage therapy for some rather uncomfortable sciatica. My therapist, Britt, conducted an interview to understand my history. She also spent time explaining different possible causes and how she would go about determining which was relevant to my case. She then went on to probe pain points on my back, calves and thighs. This was followed by massage to loosen tight muscles which brought a lot of relief. She gave me some self massage exercises for home. I've a follow up for next week. Thanks Britt. Brian V read more

Dr Todd Luther is awesome . He truly cares about his clients. He makes sure you are adjusted properly. He takes his time and you leave their feeling like a million bucks. Hands down the best chiropractor in Bellingham. We drive up all the way from Seattle just to see him. read more

Matt is amazing, and a very uniquely educated massage therapist. He has helped me immensely with issues that others could not. I respect his knowledge and appreciate his compassionate care! He is truly a talented and professional therapist. read more

I went in for an adjustment and massage. The staff is friendly, the office is clean, and they don't keep you waiting for your appointment. I am still hurting but that's because I'm 37 and out of shape. Will just have to go back a few more times! read more

Roslyn was absolutely amazing! One of the best massages I've ever received. It's like she was reading my mind!

I injured my back on a Saturday and was able to schedule an online appointment for Sunday with Cody. Upon arrival I was greeted by the receptionist with a smile and she was very friendly. Cody took me the room explained everything and reviewed my areas of pain. During the massage Cody was excellent at explaining the techniques and also the stretches completed to help with the pain. After the massage I was able to jump off the bed with less pain and more movement. He gave me stretches I can complete at home. I look forward to being a repeat client. Great relaxing atmosphere with friendly staff. read more

I have always slouched, and now that I am older I'm finally feeling the repercussions. I have seen Cody twice to help ease my discomfort, and have always left with amazing results. Not only is he a wealth of knowledge of his profession, but also very passionate about helping people. Thank you Cody and Barkley Massage/ Chiropractic. read more

I've had massages with 6 different therapists here and they are all very professional and friendly! I would definitely recommend Barkley massage! read more

I highly recommend Barkley Massage, especially their message therapist Elynn. I have seen her a few times now and I really appreciate that she listens and gives me great tips/stretches for me to work on to improve my posture. She is really caring and goes the extra mile! read more

Dr Luther is great. Talented, professional and personable.

Dr Luther saved my back! After months and months of sleepless nights and painful days, I took a chance on a Groupon to try this out. After my first treatment, I was sold. Within a few months, I was returning to my normal activities and with his help, have even increased my exercise and more importantly, my sleep. We miss him in Seattle; B'ham, you're lucky to have him! read more

Awesome new massage/chiro in Barkley! I had a deep tissue massage with Mel - it was excellent. I'm not usually a fan of deep tissue, but I thought it was needed due to some pain. Anyway, Mel was kind, listened to my concerns, listened to my muscles while she worked on loosening them, and overall was respectful and professional. I met two other staff members and the owner while I was there. Everyone was kind. I would certainly recommend trying them out - especially with the great promo deals! read more

I was surprised by how expensive it was. Turns out if you want decent prices you have to become a member. I wasn't able to afford to tip. I won't be back. read more

I just received a very relaxing massage here. And a very gifted chiropractic adjustment! I will be back the next time I'm in Bellingham.. read more

What a Wonderful experience. The staff is warm and inviting. Very professional and kind. My 90 minute massage was one of the best I've had. I didn't want to leave! Returning to the reception desk from the well hidden private rooms, I was greeted (again) by smiles and the sunshine through the front windows. A wonderful winter moment I wish I could share with everyone. Thank you, I'll be back soon :) read more

Use to see Dr. Todd Luther in Ballard and even when we was in South Lake Union he is great at what dose. I know he will be great up there. I know that I will miss him over here. The club's that he has looks great. you will be luck up have him up there.. read more

Kim was amazingly AWESOME! She listened when I told her what I was wanting and needing and asked for feedback. I will have no problem recommending her to others! Thanks Kim! read more

Kimberly was wonderful! The atmosphere was calming and the entire experience was amazing! I've already made my next appointment with Kimberly! I strongly recommend Barkley Massage & Chiropractic for your physical health. read more

Wonderful experience! The office staff (Katy) is very sweet and professional! It is such a joy to be greeted by her smiling face! The office has such a relaxed and healing environment, it sets the tone immediately for an excellent session. My therapist Cody was fantastic. He focused on my problem areas and addressed all of my specific needs, he event sent me home with some take home stretches I can't wait to try. Following my massage I received an adjustment from Dr. Todd. What a wonderful experience! I walked out taller, more at ease, and in far less pain! Thank you so much Barkley Massage and Chiropractic. I will be back! read more

Visited Rosalynne McCort for a massage because I have been struggling with headaches and migraines. She was knowledgeable and knew what areas to target, had a calming demeanor, and surprisingly strong hands. Excellent massage and headache is gone! read more

Lindsay does a really lovely job! I have never had such a deep and relaxing massage. I experienced cupping for the first time with Lindsay and actually feel lighter and rubbery. Thank you! read more

5 stars for the massage. 0 stars for the front desk. The man at the front desk should write a book called "how to lose future revenue in 5 seconds." Firstly, the woman I spoke to on the phone was nothing but helpful and pleasant. I made an appointment under my name, for my partner, this was explained on the phone. We walked in, we said both names, the man repeatedly asked me for the "appointment name" and when I answered with my partners name he looked perplexed and said "you know this is Barkley Massage and chiropractic, right?" "Are you sure your at the right place?" With an incredibly condescending tone. After figuring out the appointment stuff came the payment. I had forgotten that I had already paid ahead of time, and I stood at the desk with my credit card in hand for 40 seconds before the man said "what do you want me to do with that?" Like.... take my money? Oh sorry I forgot I already paid you... could you say that in a more rude way? Again, this man made me feel so fricking stupid for no reason. My money is as good as anyone else's just because I'm a young person doesn't mean you treat me like I'm an idiot. read more

My boyfriend and I have been on a 2-month long road trip, and I threw my back out horribly on the last week of it. As soon as we made it to Bellingham, I googled chiropractors and decided to give Dr.Luther a try. Boy what a great decision that was! My first visit was simple and very effective! The Dr. is friendly, knowledgeable, quick, and attentive to your specific needs. I've been back once a day for a week straight now and can actually walk again! The membership price of $125 for a whole month makes it so affordable, how could I not? I absolutely recommend this lovely place to anyone! read more

So happy to have found this place! I was in so much pain and could barely lift my arm over my head when I first went to visit Todd. After just one adjustment my pain was greatly reduced and after a few more adjustments I am sleeping better and exercising regularly without pain. Todd explains each adjustment and is very knowledgable about what he does. The atmosphere is very relaxed and reception is warm and friendly. I can't recommend this place enough! read more
