This place is amazing. I found them gem on yelp. I had a long flight and slept wrong. I was able to make an appt online and wow thankfully I did. I ended up getting a 1 hour chair massage and it was amazing. the lady helping me was very nice and courteous. She made sure I pointed out all the right spots and she made sure my knots were gone. The quality and professionalism is why whenever I am in town I will come back read more

This experience is so special because I feel like my masseuse understood my body and my soul. I know that sounds crazy, but she asked me very specific questions that helped her fit my target area, but with precision and still being delicate. read more

So my husband and I were out here for a business trip and we decided to treat ourselves to a massage . This place was absolutely amazing. We had Terrance and Dawn as our massage therapists. I don't believe i ever had such an amazing massage in my life. Dawn took care of the trouble areas i needed addressed . My husband said Terrance really helped with his lower back pain . Check out was quick. We will have to definitely come back in visit . read more

So this place is just so amazing. Nahila has the hands of a goddess! I have gotten my fair share of massages and her knowledge of like pressure points and how to massage is VERY CLEAR. She was doing exactly what was needed. She's amazing and honestly I wanted to propose to her by the end because that's how much joy she brought me. Messaging is also transferable energy and you NAHILA are filled with the great energy and I'm so appreciative. I will definitely be back. read more

Went to a convention in DC and needed some care after sleeping on a terrible hotel bed. . . Mustard Seed Massage to the rescue. They were able to get us in for an appointment. It's located on the second floor of a small building. This is not a fancy place but it is clean and they are all friendly. I also have to say it was the BEST massage I've had in a long time! I wish I had time to go back before going home. The other amazing thing a 1 hour massage is exactly that!! They start on time and end exactly on the hour. Non of this giving u ten minutes to undress and stopping 10 min before the hour like other places do! I wish I could remember the name of the young man who did my deep tissue because he has magic hands my neck and back were totally relaxed!! read more

I walked in without an appointment and they were able to see me right away. The place was super clean and my therapist Dawn was amazing. Her deep tissue massage released all the knots in my back, neck, & shoulders. It felt so good I had to extend for another 15 min. I will definitely be back the next time i am in town. read more

This was the worst massage I've ever had in my life. I get massages quite frequently. I went here based on some of the Yelp reviews. I was in pain & really needed a massage. They put me with someone named Xavier. He isn't even listed on their website, there's no business card at the counter for him. He kept going over the same areas, not knowing how to work out any of the troubled spots on my body. I tried to politely tell him, but that didn't work either. There's no way he is a licensed massage therapist. He put half the bottle of oil on my body. I tried to wipe as much off before I left. It was so bad it ruined my shirt, because the oil stains all over it. I'm so disappointed, and if he is licensed, shame on you for not training him properly, or not use your paying clients for his trails. I really needed to relax and heal, and left in worst shape then I arrived. I would give them ZERO stars If Yelp would let me. read more

I have been interested in getting a massage here for the longest time. I have some friends who have raved about it and wanted to check it out for myself. I decided to get a couple's massage for my husband's birthday and and early birthday present to myself. We both got 60 minutes deep tissue and made sure we booked under the "new client" discount. The reservation process was super easy... you can book online, call, or drop in. I called because I had some questions and special requests that they were happy to accommodate. Massage: They saw us right away and made us feel comfortable. We saw Brenda and Caleb and they were both excellent. I appreciated how they checked in on pressure and worked into specific areas of our bodies that were particularly tense due to working at desks all day. The room had a nice ambiance, was relaxing, and there was nice music playing. I also really liked the massage tables, they were very comfy and the sheets were so soft! I wanted to sleep there afterwards. I will definitely be back. It's great that they have specials for people who come in frequently and specials for people who pre-pay. It's a nice touch to incentivize return clients. Go get a massage! read more

Great massage and therapists. We decided to get a last minute couples massage and they were easily able to book the both of us. They started off the massage by asking us what we would like to be worked on and how strong we like our pressure, which I appreciate because usually the massage will start off and then they start asking if it's too hard or soft. Next time I'm in DC I will definitely come back! read more

I got a prenatal massage from Jonah, hoping it would help with some back pain I've been having that is bad enough to interfere with my quality of life. It was by far the best massage I've ever had. I'll definitely be going back. read more

I've been to Mustard Seed Massage in the past but didn't find the experience all that memorable. This all changed when they gave me a last-minute appointment on a snowy Tuesday afternoon. I've been dealing with a bad cold for almost a week, but my congested sinuses and body aches didn't go away even after I got a lot of rest and felt more energized. My entire left side, from my ear down to my mid-back, was completely out of whack and in pain. Brenda, who reminded me of a sweet aunt, worked her magic on me. After an hour with her, I was able to breathe through my nose again, my left ear finally popped, and the pain in my neck and shoulder started to go away. I would definitely return to see Brenda again! read more

I have been here a few times when they were located on M Street NW. It's always easy to get in and book a last minute appointment which I appreciate. Recently I was having an issue with pain in my right shoulder and neck that was really bothering me for a few days. I have been very strict during quarantine and besides masked, social distancing outside with friends and trips to the grocery store and CVS, I have been inside. I was nervous about breaking out of quarantine to get a massage but I was in so much pain that I went for it. Mustard Seed Massage did a great job of making me feel safe and comfortable the entire time I was there. There is an extensive form to fill out ahead of time, my temperature was taken upon arrival, everyone had masks on, there was able hand sanitizer and new air filters in the lobby and the massage room. The entire check-in and check-out experience was also contactless. Now to the massage, this was my first time seeing Stan and he was exactly what I needed. I've never really chatted during massages before but Stan and I had ended up chatting here and there and it was a great combination of relaxation, learning new things and getting to know each other. He read my chakras and he shared the background on each of them, which was definitely some food for thought, while also giving me the most incredible massage. I am grateful to Stan for the relief he provided me and will definitely be back. read more

So, I've been going to Mustard Seed for almost a year. I try to go once per month (not sure why it took so long to do a review). Caleb is my go to guy and always does a PHENOMENAL job. Even my breathing is better afterwards. Unfortunately, I'll have to see one of the other therapists for lymphatic drainage but I'm confident the experience will be equally satisfactory. I'm sending everyone I know your way! Thank you Mustard Seed read more

I've been here twice for a couples massage and it was AMAZING! This place is clean, friendly to all, and definitely worth the money. The organic essential oils, ambience, and skillful staff make for a one-of-a-kind experience. Aside from the experience, the location couldn't be better! 1108 Kst NW is literally in downtown DC & walking distance to Vue Rooftop bar containing breathtaking views of the White House, national mall & monuments that your partner will absolutely love! Highly recommend! read more

My wife popped in as walk-ins for a 30 min chair massage. They got us right in without delay and let me tell you, it was one of the best massages I've had in my life. Dawn was very knowledgeable and helpful around my trigger points causing me stress and pain. She incorporates a lot of amazing stretching along with targeted massages with perfect pressure. I felt amazing after just 30 minutes and I plan to return as a regular customer. read more

Really enjoyed my chair massage with Denisa. She hit all the rough spots on my injured shoulder.

I've gone to this location twice--once for a massage on my own and another for a couples massage. The therapists and those at the front desk were all friendly and welcoming, even after we came late (parking was hard to find in the area and we ended up having to park at one of the hotel parking lots). It was easy to use their booking system online. Overall, the facilities were great and while I would've liked harder pressure, we enjoyed our massages and would consider going back. If we did, we would consider taking a Lyft or giving us more time to find parking. read more

I didn't even get as far as getting a massage the front desk person couldn't even understand me. To be honest it was the worst experience I've had here or any massage place. I would say don't call them! Don't recommend. read more

Best massage ever from Henry! I have been stressed and I feel relaxed and rejuvenated.

Do not get a prenatal massage here! Go to native beauty in eastern market and ask for Linda. I made the mistake of going here when Linda wasn't available and was very disappointed. I paid $130 for a 75 minute massage and was shorted on time. The massage itself was very underwhelming and not like any massage I've ever received before. The person who massaged me basically just rubbed very quickly over the same area on my back. The massage was not relaxing, it was bright in the room and they did not have a pregnancy pillow for me to lay on my side. Instead I was given two small pillows to put my head on and put one in between my legs, but nothing to relax my arms on. Giving 1 star because I have received no responses from my messages to business. I also informed the front desk person when I left and management never reached out to me. read more

I tried their 60-minute Lomi Lomi massage, and my back pain got much worse after it. I couldn't even lie down and sleep. Don't recommend it. Won't go there again. read more

I booked a last minute 30 minute massage with Dawn ahead of a big event in DC and I'm so glad I did! The best massage I've gotten in DC, she also stretched and helped sort of realign my shoulder. Can't recommend her enough! read more

I was so thankful to get in for a 30-min massage today. Traveling in DC for work and my shoulders and back were a wreck. Jeneba worked a whole dang miracle on me- I feel so much better! My only regret is not doing an entire hour. Highly recommend her! read more

Ms. Brenda is a great massage therapist! My husband booked me a 45 minute back and foot massage here for Valentine's Day. The booking process was easy, the receptionist was welcoming, the ambiance was beautiful and the massage was effective. We're coming back for couples massages soon. read more

Juan (MT1732) literally started yelling at me and the receptionist when we -- in calm, normal voices -- let him know that he had maybe misunderstood and finished the 60 minute massage 15 minutes early. I had assumed it was a just an honest misunderstanding about the length I had originally booked and wasn't at all upset but he became enraged and started yelling at us even though the receptionist confirmed I hadn't even been in the building for an hour. His massage was decent but I would STRONGLY CAUTION anyone from getting a massage from someone who can so quickly snap and start yelling at two well-meaning women who dared to present him with facts. read more

I had a great deep tissue session today with Caleb. Excellent! Expert and professional. Just what I needed after arriving in DC yesterday after a transatlantic flight. No hesitation about recommending Mustard Seed Massage and Caleb. Class acts all the way around. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in DC and wanting a massage. read more

My husband and I accidentally discovered Mustard Seed Massage earlier this year, when we made the decision to make a same-day appointment. I was paired with Caleb, and have been going in for monthly massages ever since. He is only masseuse I have had that makes me feel like the massage genuinely contributes to my overall health. We vary between relaxing and healing massages, depending on my needs that month. I couldn't recommend him more. And if he offers to stretch as part of your passage, take it! It's really great if you're active. read more

I was able to get a last minute appointment while in town for a conference. Clean. Pleasant. Eat walk from the convention center. Terence did a great job. I would certainly go back again! read more

Made a last minute appointment and got in at 5pm. They truly do give you full 60 minutes just in case you have any doubts. I was paired with Brenda. At first she started off light and without saying anything she put on more pressure. She knew I had knots without asking and just worked on them for a long time. Was still about to get the full body too. Definitely will be going back! read more

Let me start with that the studio is very clean and everyone was friendly. My friend got a massage that she enjoyed, I was jealous. UPDATE: :::The manager reached out to me and apologized and offered a free massage but since I am visiting from out of town he kindly refunded me what I paid for the massage and emailed me my receipts::: My massage however was not great, I'm sure my body benefited from the rub down but it was uncomfortable and awkward. My dad is a masseuse and I can definitely handle more pressure than most, but this guy was applying deep pressure all over the place, he used his elbow the length of my back and kept smashing my face down into the head support and elbowing my jaw. He was rushing and fumbling and his legs were slipping and hitting the walls. I was literally rocked on the table, and I had to stiffen up to keep myself on the table, my arms kept wanting to fall down and I had to stabilize myself. He pinched my traps and pulled which was very painful and was poking my skin with his nails. He did not pay attention to any specific points and the massage was unequal, he spent a lot of time on my right side and then quickly rubbed down my left side (felt like 3 minutes) and then slapped a PIPING hot towel on my back and told me to come out when ready. When I came out to pay he asked "who was your massage therapist today?" And I was like "YOU" ‍‍. He asked if I want my receipt printed or emailed, I said email please and I still haven't received it (yes I checked my junk folder). He didn't tell me his name, he is a skinny blonde guy, I looked on the website to find him but they don't list their employees. It was pretty bad and I'm feeling bruised today. read more

Services rendered: New Client 90-minute massage. Pros: 1) The online appointment system is easy to use and convenient. 2) The facilities are clean and welcoming. 3) All of the staff I encountered were very nice and professional. 4) The massage was so relaxing that I actually dozed off a few times. I woke up when I realized I was snoring! LOL. Cons: 1) My massage therapist asked which areas I wanted him to concentrate on, and while he did a good job, I had to keep telling him to focus more time on certain areas. 2) I was given water before my massage and not after, which is unusual. 3) I was charged the wrong rate, but a refund for the overage was immediately processed. Summary: I would give this place another shot if I could get a different MT. The one I had wasn't bad, but not the best. read more

Had a wonderful experience at mustard seed massage! The studio is very clean and relaxing, as well as located in a central part of town. Sharla was amazing and very thorough in learning about the pain I was having and what could have potentially caused it. Not only did she make me feel so comfortable, but also completely relieved me of my lower back pain! I will definitely be coming back regularly! read more

Stan gave me a great deep tissue chakra opening 2hr massage but unfortunately my feet legs and hips still ache from all the walking this week I regret not having him focus on my feet instead of my mental well being because shortly after the massage an email from my boss has them closing and the wonderful tranquil zen feeling that I left mustard seed with was gone..not anyones fault but mine for letting the outside in..mustard seed is a lovely place great massage and very pleasant upbeat and friendly personel. Felt really relaxed from the moment I walked through the door till I got to my hotel. I hope that the mental tranquility carries me through the day as I travel home, DC has been a lovely experience this week from cherry blossoms to chacras opening its been very rejuvenating read more

This is the best massage ever!!! Run don't walk to get this massage. I can literally cancel therapy...I'm all fixed. Thank you Mustard Seed! And book with Stephen, he changed my life. read more

What a great surprise. I was in town for a conference and after days on my feet and a day on the Mall going through museums I was sore all over and my plantar fasciitis was flaring up. On a lark I googled same day massage appointments and decided to take a chance. Totally worth it! The space and lobby are quite basic but the treatment room was lovely and smelled great. Music was some soft jazz, which was a nice change. Best of all, treatment was great! I opted for deep tissue and the masseur definitely had the chops to deliver. Good listener, great practitioner, totally legit. Would go back next time I am in town! read more

I just received a 60 minute deep tissue massage from Caleb. The massage was wonderful! He was excellent at isolating muscles and smoothing out sore/tight areas. He was very professional and had a calming demeano. I would definitely go to Caleb at Mustardseed again. read more

Best massage I've ever had in my life, and I've tried anything from $30 to $300 massages in US and outside. Stephen was amazing - I went in tired, cranky and in pain and came out a brand new, happy person. It's day two and every part of my body feels relaxed and pain free. Don't even look elsewhere - book! read more

Booked a last minute chair massage with Nicole for a terrible knot in my back and loved it! The room and space was clean and comfortable. The "chair" massage ended up being on the massage bed which I preferred and was a great deal- 30 mins for $50. Nicole was lovely and chatted with me prior to the start of the massage about what I was looking to focus on. Will return! read more

Had a wonderful massage with Dawn. I will definitely be back and will book a longer session. One of the best massages I've had.

OH MY GOODNESS!! I just received the most amazing massage from Caleb. I'm new to the area and needed a new person. I am very picky with my massage therapists. I had the same one for 8 years so I was very nervous to branch out. My last massage was preCOVID. My neck and shoulders were in terrible shape. Caleb worked out all the stress in my neck and shoulders! He even found some areas on my legs that I wasn't aware needed some work. I honestly considered getting down on one knee and proposing at the end of my massage. I will 100% be back! read more
