I cannot recommend Karuna Massage and Maria enough! From the moment I walked in, the entire…read moreexperience felt calm, grounding, and so zen. Maria truly has magical hands. She intuitively knew exactly which areas needed extra attention and worked through tension I didn't even realize I was holding. She reminded me of the importance of self-care & pouring back into oneself. Her touch is both therapeutic and deeply relaxing -- the perfect balance. I left feeling lighter, aligned, and completely refreshed. If you're looking for someone who is skilled, intuitive, and genuinely gifted at what she does, Maria is it. I will absolutely be going back. Highly, highly recommend!

I thought my massage at the Four Seasons in Westlake was going to be as good as it'll ever get (top tier). I'm thankful to be proven wrong with Maria's massage! I'm still blown away. I texted her and she got back to me right away which I appreciated. I booked 90 minutes as it had been a couple years since my last massage. She was professional, prompt, listened to my concerns/trouble areas and was so thorough. She's gifted and can feel and sense things others cannot. I've been feeling so much relief already! Truly looking forward to seeing her again and referring her.

She was amazing but she moved out of state recently and of course I was forced to try someone new. Went to Coco a couple of times and she was just as amazing. Coco was booked tonight (she's the manager) and so she suggested that I book with Lisa which is who I was suppose to get a massage with only to have a bait and switch when I arrived and had to go to Amy instead. I was peeved but decided to trust Coco since she knows me and what I like. I thought I'd be in good hands (no pun intended). Amy gave the worst massage I have ever had. She asked if I wanted light or medium. I like medium touch but honestly she was just rubbing skin, barely applying any pressure, slapping on oil. and phoning it in. But the kicker was towards the end of the massage, she puts cloves on to massage my feet, NEVER have I had a body massage with cloves on (except a pedicure). AND, this is AFTER she massaged my body with her bare hands the whole time. Makes no sense. THEN, she took paper towels and rubbed the oil off of my feet which felt like sand paper scrapping my skin off. I really should have just stopped the massage so it's partly my fault for letting her continue. BUT, I figured I would just tip her less and call it day. I've always tipped 30% on average, EXCEPT for tonight when I handed her a 10% tip, (honestly I wanted to leave no tip). She pointed to the NEW tip chart with a range saying she wanted more. I was livid. My intention was to be quiet about this b/c I've been going here for so long and I figured one bad massage over the years wasn't worth the complaint BUT b/c AMY forced the issue, I was forced to let her know (and now you, here on yelp) that it was the worst massage I have ever had and b/c she demanded more of tip, she needed to know that is the REAL issue and she got exactly what she gave. I told her that I've been a client for 6 years and I will never come back again. I will make sure all of my associates and friends in Ventura never step foot in this establishment again. On top of it, I had one of those punch cards for every massage you get, it adds up to a free foot massage which was almost full. Amy grabbed it and said she'd give it to me at the end of the massage. Needless to say I didn't get it back. LOL. Not that it matters now cause they lost a long time client. Oh & btw; I'm a licensed Massage Therapist myself for 24 years so I'm very careful with feedback b/c everyone has their own style and touch. Its subjective. Right? In all the years as a Massage Therapist, I've never demanded that a client tip me more. And that's the issue. The quality of service is determined by the discretion of the client. Period. And if this business requires a "set tip" then it needs to be built into the price of the massage. This tipping chart is brand new btw and I was completely unaware until I decided tip below what I normally give.

This was a birthday gift for my daughter, and Emily was absolutely amazing. From the moment we arrived, the space felt inviting, calm, and instantly relaxing--the kind of ambiance that makes you exhale and forget the outside world. Not a bright, flashy spa ... The massage itself? Exceptional. Professional, intuitive, and unlike anything I've experienced before. Emily provides a subtle professional massage that reaches points never worked before. It was relaxing from the peaceful atmosphere to the expert technique. A perfect birthday gift and an experience we'll happily repeat. Highly recommend if you're looking for true relaxation and top-tier care.

Overall I totally needed a massage. I've certainly had better, but this was ok. I wish I didn't have to switch to a room for the body, and I didn't realize I would have to strip down too. So it kind of broke the relaxing part. What I found weird was though I kept my underwear on as I always do, the masseuse push them down my butt further. I think I was at full moon! And most of the time she wasn't even close to my lower back. And normally they would provide coverage, so I was a bit chilly. Fortunately I'm not one to be shy, I was just curious as to what was going on. So!!!! If there is ever a next time...I'll just stick to the foot. I just don't what to break up a session by moving, and maybe question if the full mooning is necessary =P The staff was nice tho, and the facilities clean and well-maintained.

You have your own room, so you can disrobe to how much you feel comfortable, and then lie on the massage table. My massage therapist quickly switched to a lighter touch when i asked, and she did a very thorough job of working mostly on my back. She also massaged my legs, neck, should and feet. I could feel the soreness start to melt away. It's amazing how quickly one hour passes by when you're being pampered. She was very friendly and checked in on me occasionally to make sure everything was fine with the massage. I've included the price list, which I think is reasonable, especially since I plan on coming here every so often. Try to bring cash and bring extra for trip monies. And remember, you're 100% worth it!

The receptionist has bro personality, I went to book a 11:45am online but didn't want to leave my card number. So I told her I'd drive down.

I had a gift card that was never used, she checked the balance and said it had $35. A massage is $140 if you're a non member. It's only $80 if you commit to their shitty plan. Avoid this place and their terrible customer service.

The massages…read morethemselves were good, I just wish I had enough confidence to have asked my masseuse to put more pressure, but she didn't ask and I was afraid to tell, so that's on me. My husband had never had a massage before and my first and last was 20 years ago, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Things to consider: They had good dark lighting and music to set the mood for relaxation, but you can still hear traffic outside. This didn't bother me, but if you're someone who doesn't want to hear that I recommend earbuds. There's a dispensary downstairs and you can smell it lightly, so if you're sensitive to that be aware you can slightly smell that. Not their fault, just is one of those things. The price is pretty great. I shopped around and I saw how massages can range quite a bit. This was on the lower average scale. After we were done it felt really awkward though because there was no side chat of any kind. It was just okay you owe this much. We paid and I was waiting for a receipt, but she was just like "okay". So, we just sort of turned around to leave. I must have said thank you like 4 times between the end of the massage and paying lol. When we were leaving my husband's masseuse gave us some water and said "have a nice day" and that was the end of our experience. It was all fine, but not overly welcoming. We would totally go back, but I genuinely don't know if they want us to. Haha.
