My wife and I are in Petaluma from chicago visiting friends who are building a home here. Stumbled upon Essential by reading prior reviews, let me tell you, exceptional experience. From deep tissue, cupping and hot stone, can't wait to come back to visit, you will see us again! Northbrook, Illinois read more

Visiting from out of town and booked a couples massage for same day on the weekend. Arrived a little early and they were able to take us then. I appreciated attention to areas I didn't want massages and felt like they did focus on what I asked. They also used some pressure points which I liked. Very professional and thorough. Checked in a few times on pressure levels too. Would definitely recommend. They seem to have cupping and some more accupressure based services that I'm hoping to check out when I'm back in the area. read more

Called and got a same day appointment, hot stone firm pressure, got worked over and that's what we asked for, will be back. Nove ladies, large parking lot. read more

Love the therapy at Essential so much. It's pretty clean and peaceful venue. Two of my orthopedists told me that all my joints are too flexible in a bad way. After herniated disc, I had been having lower back pain since. I also torn both of my meniscus that caused lots of knee pains and loaded with chronic shoulder pains. I had a 90 minute massage scheduled with Binbin and she is incredible. She was able to intuitively know all the areas where I am tight and sore without my explanation. She worked so hard to loose them out. I really enjoyed the hot stone and essential oil treatment too. I feel like a morning wake up after the amazing therapy. Prices are great, location is excellent where I enjoyed a meal in the shopping mall right next to it. I found out they parts with a facial therapiest who can give me a facial treatment next trip. read more

I am so glad I found this place! I saw Lucy today and had the most amazing deep tissue massage with gua sha. I was hit by a car walking a few weeks back and have been in nonstop pain, mostly in my tailbone. She found where I was hurting immediately and I soon felt like I was floating. She really focused on the areas that needed the most work and I will come back next week to get more work done. Thank you, Lucy! You are wonderful. read more

I pampered myself at this place with professional technic of deep issue massage. The massage bed is heated and it feels so comfy. Lucy also used hot stones on my back at the end, which is an exceptionally experience of relaxation. I highly recommend this place to those in need. read more

I just came back from a trip to the wine country and stopped at Essential Massage Therapy for a massage after hearring good words from a friend of mine. Judy took care of my back pain. She was was very professional and found exactly the pressure needed. She also massaged using different techniques with some more advanced than the ones I have received before. She also used pressure points and is very strong when needed. I liked my experience so much that I came two more times in my one week trip. I also saw other staff members and they were very friendly and professional. The space is sparkling clean and warm! Highly recommended! read more

Second time - 4 hands - Lucy and BinBin - like a charm - relaxing, refreshing, enjoyable!

I called for an appointment for my boyfriend because he'd been in a lot of pain and I was worried. They were able to get him in with Binbin the same evening as the morning I had called. Essential Massage did a great job making my boyfriend feel comfortable at his first massage and treating his pain- by his reports, Binbin is very strong and skilled and he is beginning to be in much less pain after two sessions with her. He will definitely continue going. read more

My friend and I are visiting the wine country. We thought a massage could be good on a rainy day. After calling several places that were either booked up or super pricey we called here. Maybe because they're away from downtown Petaluma or more therapeutic in outlook, they had an opening. Fabulous massage from Judy. Nice setting, very clean and professional. Easy parking. The hot rocks were amazing! Reasonable prices. Call them! read more

so well priced- kind staff- one of the best massages i have ever gotten. smells lovely in there and they are so helpful!
