Unfortunately I feel obligated to share that I had a bad experience at Eye Street Massage. I was grateful to the owner Pam, who moved relatively quickly to resolve the issue, but my patient privacy was not respected during that time. I don't think this specific issue can happen again, but I do feel obliged to say that it did happen, only because I wish someone might have warned me. I'm sure there are bad apples anywhere you may go, but please heed my warning and speak up QUICKLY if something feels wrong. read more

ALL people of good will are welcome here. This business is owned by someone with love, joy, and generosity in their heart. The friendly staff are talented. I treated myself for my birthday a couple times and I received an EXCELLENT deep tissue massage. I'm a big guy who lifts weights, so too many times I've requested a deep massage and received something that felt like a light pat on the head. And had no lasting effect. The 2 sessions I've had here made a lasting difference. I look forward to returning. read more

Sam is my go-to for bodywork. They are incredibly knowledgeable and especially great for anyone who is hypermobile. They always take the time to explain what they are doing and why, which helps me understand how my body is responding and how to better support it between sessions. Their intuitive approach and deep understanding of body mechanics make such a difference -- every appointment leaves me feeling more balanced, grounded, and at ease. I could not recommend them more highly. read more

I've gone to Eye Street Massage over the years and it's time I finally left a review! First, the online system is easy to schedule. The facility, pre and during the pandemic, is clean and comfortable. It's in an office building, so it's not a spa with frills. If you're looking to relieve pain via massage therapy, the space is more than enough to do so. While my previous go-to therapist is no longer practicing here, I have had good experiences with several massage therapists. Everyone on the team is knowledgeable and genuinely interested in helping you address pain areas during your session. If you're downtown, I highly recommend Eye Street Massage. read more

I really like the location of this place, it's centrally located downtown. But I have to agree with another reviewer that I too was taken aback by my therapist being in Jeans, a Hawaiian shirt, and sneakers. I wasn't even going to say anything about it but seeing someone else mention it validated my thoughts about it, lol. It just didn't seem professional to me. I also didn't like the music/speaker situation - he used a portable speaker that just didn't sound very good. Lights were still quite bright, and it wasn't a totally relaxing experience. This was only my second time here after not having been there for years, so I guess I just wasn't used to it. My message therapist also used his elbows a lot, which doesn't seem great to me. I may return, but it would only be because of the location, not because the place really wows me. read more

So I have mixed feelings writing this review. I went here for a massage before the pandemic and had a great experience. This most recent time was right before Christmas and it was less great. I was a little taken aback that my massage therapist was wearing jeans and a windbreaker (I thought massage therapists are supposed to wear scrubs or something equivalent). The massage itself was good, although I feel like he spent the majority of the time doing more like stretches of my body vs actual massaging of the muscles. He also wanted to talk to me thru a lot of it and reprimanded me a lot throughout (at one point complaining that another person booked a massage after me) which wasn't my favorite thing. I did feel better afterward, so stretching definitely is important. Also when it was over he just left the room without saying anything so I wasn't sure if I was supposed to get dressed or if he was coming back for anything. read more

Toey, did an amazing massage again, I feel so refreshed. my husband and I always get the best service. anyone needing a message I totally recommend to come see her. she is only available on Tuesdays so plan accordingly. read more

I was visiting DC and my hips were so tight from the travel that I asked my hotel to recommend a massage therapist. I scheduled with Robert - very easy to schedule online. I felt immediately comfortable with him. He knows his craft! Just by looking at my standing posture, he understood where I was stressing my hips. He didn't ignore my other aches and pains either. Robert is skilled, kind, and intuitive. His work was magical and I wish I lived in DC so I could continue working with him! read more

I've been getting regular myofascial release massages with Edmund for several months to support healing a few chronic injuries that have been causing lots of pain and functional deficits for close to a year. Edmund is a skilled massage therapist, but what I really appreciate is that he approaches bodywork for pain management as an interesting puzzle to solve, and he wants all the information you can provide to help him help you. I share what my physical therapist, doctors, and personal trainer have all been doing, and he uses that info to support his work as part of my care team. Another reviewer complained about the setting and lack of warm towels. If your priority is having a high-end resort spa experience, this may not be for you. But if you are looking for massage for muscle relaxation and/or pain relief with skilled practitioners who are also nice people, I highly recommend Eye Street Massage. read more

Really strange experience. Place is located in a building basement with no natural light. The walls are dirty and the massage was uncomfortable at best and the masseuse kept talking to me during the massage and used coconut oil which had a rancid smell. The massage was not good and not relaxing at all. No hot towels provided. read more

Having athletic injuries are no fun, but I have found a big source of relief at Eye Street Massage Therapy. I have worked with Toey and Pamela, both are experts who take the time to talk with me and completely understand what symptoms I am experiencing. Toey made recommendations on how to be more effective with my post-workout stretching. Toey also incorporated deep tissue massage to my shoulder, which was very tender due to over use on the golf course. My range of motion has really increased dramatically since her work! Finally, Pamela gave sound recommendations about my body, emphasizing a balanced approach to fitness so that I can stay healthy and have fun! I will continue to spread the word about Eye Street Massage to all of my friends and colleagues. read more

I'm in town on business and they were able to see me on short notice. Very responsive! I saw Sage for a 90 minute massage and felt so much better physically and mentally when I left. The office is clean, pleasant, and calming. They even provided me with a bill that I can use to submit to insurance when I get home. My one tip is that it's on the Lower Level of the building, so when you go in at street level you take the elevator down to LL. read more

The person sitting on the front desk need to be slightly nicer with customers. I didn't appreciate the way she spoke to me

I love this place. Finding a massage place with multiple great therapists is a hard find in the DMV, but they've mastered it. The prices are very fair. The service is great. The facility is clean and they follow all COVID protocols. They're accessible which is great for those with mobility issues. I've worked with several therapists, but my favorite w/o a doubt is Angela. She's new to the location but I've worked with her over the last 4 years and she's the GOAT. I have a lot of chronic pain and deal with muscle tightness, knots, spasms, you name it. She is very intuitive to your body and can work problem areas without discomfort. The only limiting factor for the site is parking, but it's right off of a metro line and bus line and if you get there a little early, you can find street parking nearby. read more

This is truly one of the best massage parlors in DC! The massage therapists take the time to ask questions about the problems you may be experiencing and deliver a quality massage every time. The people are friendly and the place is very clean. You will not be disappointed! read more

As soon as my husband and I arrived to the location, we were greeted by Rob. He was very friendly and super kind! We spoke with him for a while as we headed to the location (it's located inside an office building). I recently had a baby and received the postnatal massage, while my husband received a Swedish massage! Rob was his masseur and Angela was mine. I had the most incredible experience here with Angela. She was so incredibly kind and so thorough with her questions and massage! It felt absolutely amazing and you can tell she cares about her clients. My husband also said he had a great experience with Rob! They certainly know what they are doing and we cannot wait to go back again! We will be recommending this place to a lot people! read more

Have been going here on and off as I move in & out of DC. Best massages in the DMV! Highly recommend!

Great massage!! got me in last minute and was exactly what I needed!

Wow. This was more than a massage. This was a healing experience! In addition to overall tight muscles and some misalignment, I am recovering from a nasty condition called frozen shoulder. Edmond actually got my shoulder to move more freely than it has in a year and a half. I can't believe it! Folks, this is the place to go to feel better :) read more

I had a transformative massage today with Angela. I slipped on something left on the ground by my toddler. My glute, leg, and back have been a mess since. Her massage was truly customized to my needs instead of running me through motions. She has wonderful healing energy with strong and intuitive touch. I walked out feeling brand new. I will be back again soon. I wore a new surgical mask during my visit that made it comfortable and easy to breathe deeply and relax despite the mask part of the many covid measures they are taking. read more

Female-owned local business, this place is in a great location right near Farragut North Metro. The studio is in a basement and you can sometimes hear the metro rattle by but it's otherwise peaceful and super convenient if you work downtown. The massage team comprises real professionals with an interest in your health. This place is somewhat on the no-frills side but still clean and oh so cosy on their heated beds and soft linens! Aromatherapy options are available for $10-15. Massage prices otherwise range from $60 for 30mins to $220 for 2 hrs. I recommend Aulat "Omni" or Joseph "Sage" for their super strong fingers! They both work evening shifts so you can go directly from work. read more

I needed help with aching muscles and my massage with Robert was life changing. I highly recommend him.

Very thorough and inviting approach to understand your pain points before the massage! Toey was precise and really helped work out my aching spots from working out and jiu jitsu. read more

We did a couples massage with Robert and Sage. It was fantastic! I highly recommend Eye Street massage and Robert and Sage.

Omni is a great massage therapist!!! Each time I go in and have specific areas that I need to have addressed when I leave it's like I have a brand new body. She really knows how to hit the spot. The location is right next to the Farragut West Metro station. The facility is nice and clean and it's just calming even walking in the door. I will be moving out of the DMV and may even make a trip or two back to DC just to get the excellent service that Omni & Eye Street Massage Therapy provides. Thanks for such wonderful service. read more

I've been coming here for more than a decade, and this place is consistently wonderful. I've seen many different therapists here over the years, and all have been top-notch. I'm most recently appreciating Omni for how well she works the serious tension out of my back. The location is convenient, and I appreciate the availability of evening appointments and online scheduling. They take COVID protocols very seriously -- everyone is masked, and clients have to fill out COVID questionnaires before coming in. I know they're limiting the number of people there at once; when I came in, there were no other clients there. read more

One of the best massages I've ever gotten! Only 30 minutes with Edwin after an extremely stressful week set me right. I will definitely be back read more

I've been seeing mixed reviews for this place and wanted to try it out for myself, so I took the opportunity during Spa Week ($50 for a 45-minute massage). Yes, the building is old and dingy. Yes, the carpets have multiple stains. I even found red spiders crawling on the clipboards that hold the new client forms. I've been to more massage parlors in Chinatowns that are more glamorous than this place. Yet I resisted the impulse to turn and run away. The receptionist is extremely patient and handled my inquiries and two scheduling changes. I asked for reflexology and the therapist was great. She used very light pressure but her technique was effective. My main complaint is that they don't have pillows and blankets so my neck was sore afterwards and I was cold during the massage. But seeing how filthy the place was, I would have questioned the cleanliness of the pillow and blanket if they had been offered to me. I will probably come back if I find another great deal, but I won't come back if I have to pay more than $50. read more

This place is great! I've seen Robert a couple of times, and he's an excellent massage therapist. He really takes the time to listen to where you're experiencing pain, and he's able to figure out how to alleviate it using the different modalities at his disposal. He's professional, and the bodywork really feels the way it's supposed to. I have moderate scoliosis, and I've seen a lot of bodywork specialists about it with little or no results. After my first appointment with Robert, I actually felt immense relief from pain I'd been carrying for years. I highly recommend seeing him! read more

EXPERIENCE: I booked a couples massage with Eye Street to celebrate my birthday (and use a spafinder.com gift card). They were running a little behind schedule, so they added time to our massage for free. The whole experience was nice, they took a more clinical approach with Nathan, asking questions and engaging him as she did the sports and deep tissue massage. Each therapist was responsive to feedback and requests.There was a lot of time fussing with the sheet, which sort of made me wish I had worn yoga pants or leggings or something. LOCATION/AMENITIES: I'm docking a star mostly for the atmosphere and amenities. This location is in the basement of an office building (adjacent to the FrozenYo) and directly across from Farragut Square. Do not drive here, there's no point when there are four metro lines within one block. I didn't like the waiting area, it was very doctor's-office-waiting-room with the Brita filter and the mini Dixie cups. Additionally, the phone rang several times during the massage, and since both of the employees were working on clients (us) the phone just rang and rang. To use the restroom, you need to get a key for the shared bathroom outside of Eye Street Massage's suite. Everything is clean and tidy as expected. read more

See all

Very high marks for Eye Street Massage Therapy. I called them last minute to bring in a chair massage therapist for my office and they were super responsive, accommodating, professional - and their therapist was great. It was literally the best, most therapeutic chair massage I ever received (thanks, Robert). Pam was fantastic in handling my request and, again, their responsiveness and professionalism was highly appreciated. For individual therapy or for a corporate/office engagement, I give them very high marks and definitely recommend them. Keep up the good work, Eye Street Massage Therapy, team! read more

I scheduled an appointment with Eye Street Massage Therapy because I had been under a lot of stress. I had a wonderful experience! Pamela was very professional and communicative. After my session, I felt much better and Pamela gave me advice on ways I can manage my stress. I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Eye Street Massage Therapy and I am looking forward to my next session! read more

Sage was a life saver after I woke up with back pain so severe I had a hard time walking. He asked a lot of questions and knew exactly what spots to work on. I like a very strong massage and Sage did a great job while also making it a relaxing experience. Some strong massage therapists are rough and you feel beat up after. Highly recommend coming here for a massage! read more

Eye Street Massage is wonderful! It is close to my office and they offer a variety of therapeutic services, including energy/reiki services which I had the pleasure of experiencing. I get serious migraines and suffer from fibromyalgia frequently. My therapist Omni is really amazing and knows exactly the level of pressure I need without making me feel uncomfortable. I strongly recommend the CBD Oil massage for chronic pain sufferers! read more

Eye Street massage is a great resource in downtown DC. I can book a 30- minute, custom therapy session and fit it into a busy day. The therapists are all knowledgeable and the space very relaxing. read more

I was experiencing terrible neck and back pain which became further aggravated from travel, and was relieved to have found Robert at Eye Street Massage based on the positive reviews. I felt my tension melt and I also returned the following day. I would highly recommend Robert and was especially impressed by his ability to integrate various techniques for a customized and therapeutic treatment. read more

Eye Street Massage Therapy never disappoints. Their prices are very reasonable, their staff is exceptionally friendly and their massage therapists know exactly what they're doing. read more

I have visited Eye Street Massage Therapy several times over the past few years. Each time has been a wonderful experience. Creating an appointment online is a painless experience! Each therapist has his or her own unique style but they always help to relieve my pain. I've recently gone in for foot massages and come out better for it! They are very convenient to Farragut West Metro and to most Central Business District businesses. read more

Fantastic deep tissue massage by Edmund. Left feeling a lot looser.

I was in DC for business for a few days and my excessive travel was catching up with my back. I booked an hour long deep tissue/custom massage with Chelsea and I was amazed! She was warm, welcoming and quickly found my areas of pressure. Her hands are a gift! After 50+ massages and lots of PT, I can honestly say my back has not felt better than it did after my massage here. Easy online booking, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. Only downside is that you can hear the metro travel below the building, so if your zen is easily distracted, you might want to skip this place. read more
