I loved everything about it! It was pleasant from the phone call to make the appointment to my arrival and especially my massage! Camay !!! Camay all over !!! She was awesome. Well done! I was impressed, she was professional and has magic in her hands! I've found my new place to recharge and be renewed! Thank you all so much! Oh yea , i also took advantage of the 3 for 150 deal! I'm excited to use it! read more

Ok - I was seriously so sketched out and pretty nervous to come here after reading some of these reviews!! Seriously, I am so thankful I am now coming on here to write a GOOD review and not an awful one because half of you scared me. Which is also why I am coming to write a review so people don't think the same I did and then chicken out! I purchased the couples massage/sauna off groupon and just had our appointment last night at 6:45 (so we were the last clients). At first, yes the way my gps took us we were like uhhh where is this taking us to..and on the outside isn't so pretty but the inside is nicely decorated and definitely cozy/relaxing. We waited maybe 5-6 minutes for them to enter all our info in set up the room, went into the room and waited maybe 10 minutes. No big deal. But also because I had no where else to be maybe that's why it wasn't a big deal to me. I had Raven and my boyfriend had another (UGH I wish he remembered her name!!). Anyways, immediately in the beginning we told them we had a deep tissue massage before and absolutely hated that, felt like was getting beat up. So they understood we were there just to relax. Raven was AWESOME!! I didn't have to tell her more pressure or less pressure at all. Completely relaxed and was so great. And so long!! I don't think they took time off our hour at all. We shared few laughs because I fell asleep and my leg spasm'd/woke me up and she thought she did something wrong lol - that's how relaxed I was!! The front desk lady was very sweet too, and I think the owner was there and he was nice as well. All welcoming. So overall...maybe the people with bad reviews just caught bad day or maybe they were the annoying customers. Either way...if you get these deal off living social or groupon - try it out! I am so glad I did and didn't chicken out because of some of the reviews. read more

I wasn't sure I was at the right place, until I stepped inside. This establishment had a peaceful vibe about it. I was relaxed, even dozed off at some point. My massage was very relaxing. I wish I could have stayed longer, which I think is the perfect compliment when you talk about going to get a massage. I have purchased 3 gift certificates for people since my last visit. I think that says enough. read more

Love this place and love that it isblack owned!!! The owner (I think his name is David) was so accommodating and welcoming. I called at 1:30 because I needed to push back my appointment for our couple's massage at 3pm. At first he said he couldn't do it but called back less than 5 minutes later and said he could push it back 30 minutes. Once we got there the inside has a very peaceful ambiance to it. Candles were lit throughout which made it warm and gave the place a nice low light. My husband and I got a couples massage, the sauna wasn't working. The two ladies were very wonderful. My husband left a big tip for them and loved the massage provided by Tiara. Although she said she only works on Saturday beause he enjoyed her work she was willing to workout something out to come during the week or come to the house. Yes they also provide in-home massages. I support this business and would recommend it to anyone. read more

I just gave to sing the praises of Kia, who gives GREAT massages! It is so hard to find someone this good. The music, lighting, oil and hot towels... It's really so difficult to find this. I gave 4 instead of 5 because yes, there are brief moments it's with one hand as she checks her phone, or she leaves to unlock the front; (the management is not as good as the actual massage.) read more

Body Bliss was an amazing experiencing! First, let me start off by saying the owner is amazing! He requested two of his massage therapists to come in on a Sunday (they are closed on Sundays) in order to make sure I was seen since I was traveling from New York for a friend's birthday. We had an amazing experience! The massages were great and the therapists had the perfect pressure. They were both professional and very sweet. The inside of the building was very relaxing and calming. They had perfect calming music playing with an electric fireplace and candles lit to truly transform you into a relaxed state. I really enjoyed my experience and I plan to return. The only suggestion I have is to update the outside of the building so that it can reflect the classy, upscale ambiance inside the building. read more

I temporarily lived in DC for 9 months and am so thankful I found Ali at body bliss. I have been dealing with really tight neck and upper back muscles and Ali was a master of pinpointing the issue and releasing the muscle tension. I am so grateful! I have just moved and I am definitely going to miss my monthly massages here. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an excellent masseuse! read more

I this place!!! I had the best massage here for my birthday last year 10/17/2018 it was everything I expected it to be and more! I enjoyed the atmosphere and the glass of wine relaxed me will be back and I've referred alot of ppl as well read more

A surprisingly relaxing place that you could miss if you don't look for it. Had a GREAT facial by Grisel, and a really good massage by Kia. I would recommend it! read more

Don't judge this place by its non assuming exterior. Inside the staff is helpful and welcoming. I've been back three times because my massages have been the best I have ever had. Always hitting the problem areas, communicates just enough to allow me to relax, and strong enough to work through my knots. Clean and comfortable inside as well. read more

I go to the spa about 5x a year and this was honestly top 10 massages in my life. Seriously, Raven was amazing!! She's a true gem and would fit right in at the St Regis or Red Door. The facilities aren't amazing but the treatments are fantastic and the prices are the cheapest around. read more

Had a horrible experience at this location! My appointment was rescheduled multiple times and when I did show up, they told me I wasn't on the schedule and had to be rescheduled again. Overall very disorganized and unprofessional, I will not be going back! read more

Amazing massage experience with Courtney. She was pleasant and focused on the areas I asked her to. The spa itself is definitely short on bells and whistles, no cucumber water here. But if you want an amazing massage for a great place come here. read more

This is a wonderful Establishment the staff is friendly helpful so if you every find yourself in need of some Relaxation or you're just having a bad day check them out read more

Made an appointment with Reggie for the 1-hour massage, he was amazing! It was a professional, friendly and relaxing experience. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

I've actually frequented this place twice before and had a great experience both times, however I'm only giving it two stars because it is almost impossible to actually book an appointment with them. Not sure how an establishment like this is succeeding when no one answers the phone for HOURS. There should be a receptionist at the front desk at all times, because honestly, what else could they possibly be doing? And yes I understand not every phone call will get answered, but I called 4 times in the span of 2-3 hours and got an answering machine. I left a voicemail and sent an email, which in my opinion is unnecessary for a day spa like this where booking appointments is how they make money, and NO ONE called me back or responded to my email. It also took me forever to find an actual website because the site listed does not work. I finally found the correct web address (www.bodyblisstherapy.com instead of www.bodyblisssuites.com), and the site is just as poorly maintained as their phone system. No place to book an appointment. This place could use a marketing facelift. I really should not have to go through all of this to book an appointment or even check their availability. This is such a huge turn off and deters me from ever spending my money here again. read more

This is a review for a Groupon couples massage: Wow, I never looked forward for a massage experience to be over! Dirty walls, dirty doors, dirty floors - even saw a cheerio underneath my massage table! Most uncomfortable tables too! Oh and if you're thirsty, good luck to you because there's no water to offer. Or maybe they don't have it for those who purchased the Groupon because we heard a lady come out of her room after her massage and her therapist offered and gave her water. Massage therapists came in 15 min late. By the way both smelled like they sure worked all day ! My massage therapist seems to be a good guy but he needs a looooot of training. Very firm pressure though rough when putting his hands on the client. I couldn't relax at all. He also needs to learn not to breath on the person he's working on and please cut your nails. I had to hold my breath when I was facing up. And what kind of oil do you guys use?? Whatever it is it smells terrible! Oh and please please please know that you as a massage therapist should never put your hands full of oil on your client's hair or face. My partner's therapist simply fell asleep a few times because she didn't feel the therapist moving her hands at all most of the massage. Our massage was over 20 min earlier. Meaning we got max of a 40 min massage when we paid for an hour. They took us to the sauna which we prob stayed for 10 min and could bare to stay any longer. Most horrible experience! WILL NEVER COME BACK! read more

This is a hidden gem! Don't be confused by the nondescript exterior. I came here because of a massage groupon and have been back several times since. The massages have all been fantastic - among the best massages I've ever had! (And I get frequent massages.) Both Reggie and Tia are wonderful, highly professional masseuses. They provided perfect pressure, precision on different muscle groups, and excellent customer service. The value is incredible for the DC area. I have always had prompt and friendly assistance when scheduling and arriving. This has become my go-to massage spot! read more

Went today for the first time in years, and a lot of things have changed. The look, the atmosphere and the service. The look and atmosphere were GREAT!!! The owner or manager certainly took their time and made some great upgrades. However, the service, not so much. The actually massage was good. Purchased for my fiancé and I for her bday, and they made sure both of us were comfortable and if there were any specific areas to work on. But the receptionist, pretty rude and snappy. Online, the price was $100, she said it was $120. It really wasn't a big deal for $20 but I showed her the online price and she rolled her eyes and replied "as of May 1st, that special stopped." So I asked "it's the 17th. Y'all don't update the website?" She gave me a stare and swiped my card. If it wasn't my fiancé bday, I would have left at that moment. read more

I went to Body Bliss Beyond yesterday after the gym and was super stiff and sore. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the receptionist. She was so sweet and had great customer service. My appointment was for 12:30 and I showed up a little early. I was seen right away by Reggie. He was amazing! So professional and did a great full body massage. He was very meticulous is his technique. By the time he was done, I felt so relaxed and at peace. The ambiance was nice and the place was clean and smelled really good. I would definitely recommend this hidden jewel to my friends! read more

This place is tucked semi-discretely in North East DC. The environment outside the building is less than serene, but the ambiance is quite lovely. Massage therapists were surrounding the front desk chatting about lunch and whatever else, but no one greeted me. I expected much worse based on my interactions with Body Bliss. I had purchased a Living Social deal in early March. I called the company a half dozen times in an attempt to book it; I just kept getting the run-around. Once I was even told to call back and book in a month. We'd purchased a couples massage, so apparently that was where the conflicts lied. Either way in the end my massage was excellent. Minique did an excellent job. I prefer male therapists usually but was not asked about my preference like I'd expected, which was sort of annoying too. I recommend Minique wholeheartedly, though. read more

LOVED this place. Okay, we were looking at the giant marketing wrap that covered the windows and the area and wondering if we were going to get the phenomenal service we'd received at other massage parlours, but as soon as we walked through the door, we got our answer. Friendly greetings, offers of beverages while we waited, quick registration and consultation process and the place smells HEAVENLY! MY boyfriend and I got the couple's massage deal from Livingsocial and were super excited to test out the options that were listed on the voucher to choose from (Swedish, Hot Stone, Sports Therapy). We were introduced to our 2 masseuses Tiara and Michelle and ushered into a nicely decorated, dimly lit room where they worked out every tense muscle and kink on our bodies for 60 minutes. It was fantastic, and I highly recommend Michelle for quickly identifying and then applying pressure to the tense muscles with no pain at all. I appreciate that they moved around the room very swiftly and gracefully (without noise), and they also kept checking in to make sure that we were comfortable without being annoying about it. My only qualm is that we weren't offered the massage selection that was indicated on the voucher and when I asked about the Hot Stone option, I was told that they weren't certified in that technique. (Bummer) The massage and service were fantastic nonetheless, and we will certainly be back soon! read more

Highly upset. I scheduled an appointment drove an hour to the location. Then I was told my name wasn't schedule and that they had no record of me and couldn't do anything until next week read more

So the statistical owner strikes again! Trying to respond with a 2 or 3 or 4 paragraph story. If you had that much interest in the matter, as a business owner, it would have been secondhand nature to have some problem handling skills plus Utilize. Especially if one of your employees threatened to "drag someone" However, he's clearly more of a statistic, similar to his 'top love and hip hop viewing' employee who tells ppl in real life "you can get dragged". Such a joke. He told me to mention this and I have in my orginal review however, I'll mention it again. As 'Love and hip hop tops viewer' (the only place I've heard this) finished her rant and walking back and fourth infront of me... I told her to get her hair done. It was quite distracting, the low quality she presented herself in however very fitting for herself and behavior. Please dont take this place serious. The bathroom was dirty as well. Most of there business comes from Groupon. read more

My husband and I came using a Groupon voucher for couples. We both had a wonderful experience with Reggie and Tia. We will be back.

BEST MASSAGE EVER!!! Rayven was wonderful. Despite being late, it was worth it. They were kind enough to give me a gift certificate for a facial because if the wait. I used my Groupon for this session. I was told that because of the Groupon they could only schedule during the week so upon calling to schedule I was fitted with in two weeks. Definitely will return. read more

I wrote my review on the other page of this business (wondering why they have two pages), but TL; DR: the massage was good, but there was no intake and it was only 50 mins. Everything else was great though. read more

Thought it was important to come write this review as many of the previous reviews had me super hesitant to visit this establishment. Went for the couples massage and sauna purchased through groupon earlier this month. I'm a native Washingtonian and know that area well...and it is far from HOOD! There aren't a lot of businesses in the general area, so that may be off-putting but overall its a quiet residential area. The traffic and parking nearby can be a headache but I was able to schedule a 12:30pm massage on a weekday and find ample street parking in a 2hr zone. Scheduling: Everything went well. Based on previous reviews I was expecting a nightmare. Called the same day I purchased the groupon and was able to schedule an appointment for the next week at the time of my choosing. Receptionist was courteous and professional and the follow-up text as well as the confirmation call were nice touches. Arrival: Quaint waiting space. My boyfriend and I took up the only two seats in the front so when another customer came in they kind of lingered before going back through the other room to wait. Check in went smoothly, filled out quick sheet in reference to massage type and personal problem areas before being escorted to massage room. Massage: The room was average size. Big enough for the two beds and both masseuses to move around freely. The decor and music were simple but nice and relaxing. I had Cody and my boyfriend had Jessica, I believe. They were both AWESOME. They paid attention to the problem areas we specified and the amount of pressure we asked for. We got the full hour and it was just heavenly. We get massages often and both rated the quality a 7-8/10. Nothing bad to report here. After the massage was over we were given the robes and instructed on where to go for the sauna. The instructions weren't all that clear but the space isn't that big that we couldn't find it on our own. Sauna: During the confirmation call the day before our appointment I made sure to ask if it was in working condition as previous reviews suggested it has been broke or out of order on multiple occasions. The sauna room itself is small. About the size of a small bathroom with the sauna taking up the majority of the space. We both fit comfortably in the actual sauna, but could be problematic for a larger person/couple. The radio inside the sauna was a nice touch but we wanted peace and quiet to enjoy each other so we turned it down super low. Got super hot(duh!), was very relaxing and did the job it's designed to do. Getting dressed afterwards inside that room was tricky, as I mentioned it is small, BUT one of the bathrooms is nearby and accesible if necessary. The only downfall here was not having use of a shower to clean off before getting dressed, but that wasn't that big of a deal for us, just be mindful of the clothes you wear there. Overall, we had great service. The facilities may be small but we had a great/professional experience from start to finish. I look forward to supporting (and referring) this black owned business again in the future. read more

I booked an appointment with Ali and they were able to accommodate my schedule the very same day I called. I arrived early and was immediately greeted and Ali was ready for my appointment to begin. I received a sports massage a day after a half marathon and Ali was very mindful of areas that needed more attention due to muscle soreness. I highly recommend this black-owned, local business! read more

Don't be fooled by the unassuming exterior. This place is wonderful. Inside, with candles lit - it is perfectly spa-like. And Reggie is an expert massage therapist! I have had many massages - and this ranks among the best! I will definitely be back! read more

As much as I wanted to like this place, I just couldn't. The spa looked very nice on the pictures, but when I got there it was nothing like the pictures. It was very dirty, the lobby and room had some weird smell even the sheets. Because it's so dark you can't really see the dirtiness. The massage was not great at all. I was suppose to reschedule for the sauna but I'll pass. Please save your time and money! Not worth it! read more

I cannot tell you how any service was because when I called, I was already turned off by the illmannered receptionist. I had to keep repeating what I wanted to get several times and it was pointless. She just said "hold" and I waited a few seconds & then hung up as my gut was kicking in. I was not comfortable with the customer service so I did not even bother calling back. If you are having a medical procedure done it would not be favorable to contact this place. read more

I really was hoping for a good experience but I was highly disappointed. I had purchased a groupon from them months ago and finally was able to schedule my appointment because they only accept groupons during the week. When I arrived they were unable to locate my redeemer code and they would not accept the transaction receipt that was given to them. After some talking, we realized it was a groupon problem but at the same time, he didn't offer any solutions and or other services for the time we scheduled and paid for. We weren't even looking for a discount or anything but they could have offered to acknowledge are appointment and list what services we could have purchased separately. He said he would not call us when the error was fixed and basically said we are out of luck. I know this was a groupon issue but you chose to do business with them and you had no sympathy for the customer. I do no recommend this place based on their lack of customer service. read more

I recieved a wonderful massage by Rayven. It was my first massage and she made sure that my experience was a great one. Very relaxing massage and atmosphere. Happy customer read more

Heaven... massage, atmosphere, therapist wonderful! I will return and if you give it a go, you will too!!

The old saying, never judge a book by his cover certainly applies to Body Bliss. I am a Ward 5 resident and do my best to spend my money in the Ward (and thanks to all that have also visited this business). Like many reviews here, I was formally introduced to Body Bliss by the Groupon voucher. Through no fault of the company's however, my Groupon expired so I went on my birthday!!! What a great way to start my day! Sierra was great and made sure to give my problem areas the additional attention. She modified the pressure once I realized what I initially requested was a bit too much for me and the sauna treatment prior to the massage was just what I needed as well. I will be going back...very soon actually! PS. Someone mentioned a lack of public transit, which is not the case as there is public transit available and the stop is less than a block away. read more

I bought the groupon to go to a couple's massage here. I did not even make it to making the appointment. When I called the spa to discuss options and appointment times, I spoke to the RUDEST person I have ever experienced. This spa just lost two great customers because of the customer service representative that answered the phone this morning. I own my own business and I would NEVER allow my staff to talk to customers the way this lady spoke to me. I would NOT recommend this spa to anyone because of how rude this lady was on the phone. I simply asked her what day was the 24th and she laughed at me because I did not know that it was a Saturday. She was so short, sarcastic, and rude on the phone. It was absolutely appalling. If I were the owner of this business I would FIRE this lady because she is causing you to loose business. I am so thankful that I can cancel my groupon. What a waste of my time! read more

It was cool. Annoyed that when i booked my appointment the woman was very nice and took my appointment with no issues however, when i showed up the woman at the front desk was a little rude saying they don't do Groupon appointments on holiday weekends. Not what the woman on the phone said when she made my appointment. But she took me anyway and the massage was great. read more

My mousse did a wonderful job. I asked for a full body massage but was able to recognize and spend time on my problem areas. The follow up session on the sauna was much needed! Afterwards, I felt great! read more

I must admit I got quite more than I expected. I get massages frequently and this was probably the best one I have received in a while, I normally don't get massages from male masseuse Stewie was legit. Right amount of pressure found all problem areas and worked them very well read more
