I've been getting massages for years to deal with some long-term stiffness, but I've always struggled to find someone who actually gets into that deep-seated tension rather than just going through a cookie-cutter routine. Grigor is honestly really great. He's clearly very experienced, and his attention to detail is impressive--he really focused on the areas that needed it most instead of just sticking to a script. He also made me feel super comfortable right away, which is a huge deal for me. I finally feel like that stubborn stiffness is actually being addressed, and I walked out genuinely looking forward to my next session. If you're looking for someone who is professional, detailed, and just a warm, genuine person, I'd highly recommend him. As long as I'm in the area, he's officially my go-to! read more

This was my first time seeing Grigor. Excellent technique, very thorough and an amazing, really deep tissue massage. His studio has a bathroom facility and 90 minutes free parking in the building. Can't recommend him enough. I will certainly go back. read more

I've been going to Grigor for the last few weeks for deep tissue massages to work through some tightness and knots in my body. Grigor really knows his stuff as he is able to find areas I didn't even know where tender and needed attention. He has given me much needed relief. I can already feel better range of motions in some areas. I'm planning to go to Grigor as much as I can to heal my body from all these aches and knots. Highly recommend booking with NuBalance Massage read more

Had an excellent massage from Grigor. He was super intuitive using multiple techniques to directly target my neck and shoulders, and even my face where I held tension. I was in shoulder stress pain and he was so caring to offer an individualized approach to not just go through the typical techniques. He did deep stretches and muscle work for better blood flow. This was just a 30 min! I will tell all I know to go to Grigor for his care and talent, and even just get a 30 min lunch massage to shift your day! Thank You, @Michelle_merchant services read more

Grigor is super professional, communicative and takes care to use techniques that I haven't experienced in other masseuses which tell me he has loads of experience in his respective field. Cheap Chinese massage is no longer what I'll go to. I had incredible amounts of pain in my lower back and upper shoulders. The massage was good pain to take away the bad pain, and a day later, although sore because I had been very tense, I moved with so much less pain and joint freedom. The massage is standard cost and comparable to Massage Envy, but you will get a quality masseuse who knows what he is doing! read more

Long overdue review. Decided to treat myself to some body work today for my birthday a few months ago. I found NuBalance on Groupon and the prices couldn't be beat. I called and made an appt that morning and explained I had a Groupon, etc. The booking process was as smooth as it gets. Grigor introduced himself during that conversation and we kept in contact throughout the process. I texted him and let him know I was lost upon arrival (I went to the wrong side of the building- not his fault, the building is set up oddly), and he was nice enough to come get me downstairs. As for the services provided, I couldn't recommend him more. I got a deep tissue massage and cupping done- I felt great afterwards. He was professional and is knowledgeable on what needed to be worked on. He was thorough and precise as well. Will definitely be going back in the future! read more

Grigor gave a massage that addressed my tight muscles from sports and workout. He used a very light oil with not much scent which I liked. His pressure was firm and just right for my needs and he constantly checked with me about my comfort. His room was clean and tranquil with relaxing spa music and the table and sheets were comfortable. I highly recommend Grigor. read more

Grigor is wonderful! My massage was fantastic and Grigor gives from his heart. He is a kind and gentle soul who cares deeply about his clients experience. He is the best! read more

Scheduled a massage after a stressful few weeks and wow, what a treat. I left feeling renewed, lighter, and incredibly relaxed. Grigor has a wonderful technique and is so attentive throughout the session. I especially appreciated that I never felt rushed, which made the whole experience even more restorative. I don't get massages often, but may have to rethink that - clearly I needed it more than I realized! read more

This man know all the pressure points and tension points of the body. I have never had an experience like this. I will never waste a penny at any of those local massage places anymore. They never know what they're doing. They are not professionals like GREGOR. If youre complaining about price like I did .. I PROMISE YOU ITS WORTH EVERY CENT !!!! AND MORE ! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU . I will see you again soon ! Book it and thank me later !! read more

See all

I found Grigor on ChatGPT and he was amazing. Knew where the problem areas and worked on my shoulders, QL and intercostal ribs. Wow! He's def one of the best! read more

Deep tissue massage in Glendale It's located in that hollywood production center building Grigor is super knowledgeable about the body. Beyond massages, he gave advice on how to keep your body in its prime (stretching advice, other techniques beyond a massage, etc) His abilities with massages was stellar. I really felt loosened up and light after that massage. Really went in deep with those knots. He also cupped my back which I've never done before Parking: 90 mins free in a nearby garage at 250 N Orange St, Glendale, CA 91203 Booking: very straightforward on the website Overall, I would come again, esp since I'm usually so tight. Hopefully the stretching will help with that! read more

After my first massage appointment with Grigor, I now understand why NuBalance Massage is so highly reviewed! Grigor is a step above any pro massage therapist in LA. I left feeling incredibly relaxed and woke up the next day feeling total relief from all my neck and back tension from working a desk job. Was very easy to book as well. Highly recommend!! read more

I had such an incredible and healing experience with Grigor. I feel like he paid such close attention to my body and was so attuned to my issues. The best massage of my life doesn't even come close to describing the experience. He's a true healer and actually cares, even giving me exercises after to help maintain. He is the actual best. read more

Terrific massage! Great technique and comfortable studio. Had good advice after the massage for stretches I should be doing.

Wow! Wow! WOOOOW! Let me tell you, this therapist? Amazing! Made me feel like whole new person after giving birth to a 2 year old. Never felt so relaxed. Thank you so much. Definitely coming back and continuing at least once a month read more

Grigor is amazing. Incredible attention to detail, listens to his client. He really helped me through an intense shoulder pain. His deep tissue massage is the way to go. He really worked out a lot of knots and worked well with my injury. Couldn't recommend enough! read more

Grigor was able to fit me in last minute for a much needed Deep-Tissue session for some Sciatic pain I was having, and DANG, did he get to it. He worked meticulously along the different points of connections for nerves and muscles and all that and let me tell you -- no knot was safe, man! I'd signed up for a Swedish, though Grigor explained the differences (the main being 'one I'd enjoy today, and one I'd appreciate more in a few days' hahah) and his word was just as good as his work. I definitely felt the effects as the days passed as the jolting pain down my back & leg began to subside, which if you haven't experienced that, it freaking sucks. I wish I'd found Grigor earlier! Great work -- looking forward to booking a relaxing session soon! read more

As much as therapeutic massage is a medical science, it is also a form of art. It requires skill, passion, intuition, and creativity. Grigor is more than a massage therapist; he is truly an artist! Not only is his availability fantastic (evenings, weekends, same-day), but his skills are second to none. As others point out, this man knows his stuff and he is truly committed to helping you feel and perform better. Hands down, it was one of the best and most restorative deep tissue massages I have ever had! Grigor took his time and really targeted the problem areas he found. He talked me through everything and kept checking on both my comfort as well as the pressure he was using. I did not feel rushed or slighted in any way and his attention to my needs and comfort was outstanding. If you want a serious massage that will not just relax you, but truly help you to heal, you need to give NuBalance a try. Your muscles with thank you! read more

Absolutely recommend! Grigor is very professional and knowledgeable, making you feel comfortable and confident about the steps to take for self care. He targeted all the tension I didn't know my body was holding. Don't be hesitant, book your massage with NuBalance Massage! read more

I'm really impressed with the depth of knowledge and pride that Grigor takes in his Craft. If there was a PHD in massage he has it. Grigor knows how to stretch and loosen different parts of the body that I didn't know were se tense. Lastly he's hard working and really cares. read more

I had my first session with Grigor yesterday and I can feel a difference the next day. He added extra time for me because it was my birthday yesterday which I thought was so thoughtful. I got a deep tissue massage and his technique, intuition, and the amount of pressure he uses were exactly what I needed. He's very respectful, attentive, and ensures his clients are comfortable throughout the entire session. As someone who was a little nervous since it was my first time, I truly appreciated his calm and professional presence. The photos you see online of his suite match what you experience in person -- it's clean, comfortable, and well-kept. The sheets were fresh, there's a designated area to hang your clothing, and before we began, we discussed my goals and what I was hoping to achieve from the session. During the massage he plays soothing music, I appreciated that when he worked on specific areas, he took care to wipe away excess oils when he was done, and the towels he used were very warm -- such a nice touch. Personally, I got chilly easily, so maybe a heater could be optional, but otherwise he was attentive about keeping me covered and ensuring my limbs were properly tucked within the sheets as he moved from each area. Those small gestures really stood out. That said, I was hesitant whether to share some concerns I had, but I went ahead and did share some constructive feedback with him afterwards. Because massage work involves being in such close proximity to each other, personal hygiene is very important, and because I'm very sensitive to scents around me, I noticed an issue with body odor during our session that made me a bit uncomfortable. I mentioned this to him directly when we spoke -- not to criticize or offend, but because I really value his hustle and skill and I want to see him win. Most of all, I didn't want that one thing to cancel out all the positive things he has to offer because I value his passion for healing that much. What stood out most to me was how incredibly professional Grigor was in receiving my feedback. He didn't become defensive or dismissive, but instead he thanked me for being honest, transparent, and direct in explaining that to him. He was very apologetic, stated he is actively working on it, and expressed genuine appreciation. In fact, I wasn't going to post this review at all, but he suggested and encouraged me to do so. It speaks volumes about his character, maturity, and commitment to improving his practice and growing his customer base. It's still early in working with Grigor, but it's clear he is skilled at what he does and takes pride in helping his clients feel better. I'm looking forward to continuing to work with him, and I truly believe his professionalism, openness, and talent make him a standout in his field. One last thing -- I also want to add that I think it's extremely important to be careful when posting reviews online when you aren't completely satisfied for some reason. Before sharing any feedback publicly, I believe it's highly important to first speak directly with the business owner to give them the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes situations deserve respectful conversations rather than a public critique without context or consideration. That's exactly why I reached out to Grigor first -- and after our honest exchange, he was the one who encouraged me to share this review. Highly recommend! read more

It's rare to find someone who truly loves what they do and genuinely knows what they're doing. When I say Grigor is amazing -- OMG. I didn't know what to expect because I'm extremely picky when it comes to massages, but he exceeded every expectation. He was professional, accommodating, and absolutely awesome. I will definitely be driving the distance to see him on a regular basis. There honestly aren't enough stars for me to give him. read more

I had a wonderful experience at NuBalance with Grigor. From the moment I arrived, his calm and personable demeanor immediately put me at ease. He is highly professional and attentive, taking the time to understand my concerns. I came in with two specific back issues, and the way he worked on those areas showed a deep level of knowledge and expertise. I get massages regularly, and it's clear that Grigor is exceptionally skilled at what he does. I left feeling significantly better and truly impressed with the quality of care. I highly recommend Grigor to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and effective deep tissue massage therapist. read more

I highly recommend Nubalance. My mom has had two neck surgeries and isn't able to get chiropractic adjustments, so she often deals with a lot of built-up pressure in her neck. For over two weeks she had a terrible headache that just wouldn't go away. After her session here, he did an amazing job working on the pressure in her neck. He was very careful, knowledgeable, and really understood how to help someone with her condition. The relief she felt afterward was incredible, her headache finally went away and she felt so much better. We're very grateful for the care and professionalism. If you're dealing with neck tension or chronic headaches, I definitely recommend giving Nubalance Massage a try. read more

I contacted Grigor Sadoyan last week for a massage. It was easy to reach him and to book a session at his massage studio, NuBalance, located in downtown Glendale. Parking is streetside, along Brand Ave where there are metered spots, or a short block away on the neighboring streets. I'd allow a little extra time just in case. I asked Grigor to concentrate on my feet bc I felt a lot of cramping and tightness in my toes, instep, and ankle area. His massage was restorative and healing. Grigor is a kind and personable massage therapist. He is a natural healer who truly strives to improve his clients' well-being. I highly recommend him. read more

One of the best massages I have ever had and I have had many. It was better than Burke Williams and Massage Envy in terms of targeting areas. Professional and talented. I asked for a mixture of Swedish, lymphatic and relaxation and he delivered. I highly recommend this service. read more

Grigor was amazing! He gave me the best massage I've ever had! I feel so much more relaxed, tension-free and was able to sleep so peacefully last night. I highly recommend Grigor! read more

I have been searching for an intuitive bodyworker like Gregor for years, and I am beyond grateful to have finally found him. From the moment the session began, it was clear how deeply attuned he is -- not just technically, but energetically. He seemed naturally drawn to the areas of my body that needed the most attention, working with a firm, grounded pressure that moved seamlessly with my breath. I felt layers of tension release that I had been carrying for weeks. His ability to intuitively navigate both the physical and energetic body is truly remarkable. Most importantly, I felt extremely safe in his presence -- held, respected, and fully at ease. Finding someone I can genuinely trust with my body is rare, and I am so grateful to have found that in Gregor. I cannot recommend him highly enough. read more

Well, I thought I'd had a therapeutic massage before but now that I've been to NuBalance I know those years of massages in NYC and LA were bandaids to my pain while this massage felt like a path to true healing. Sounds ridiculous, right? But they went above and beyond to address old injuries that no one has ever dug into so well. This massage is not for the faint of heart and a breath work practice helps because this is really deep therapy. But after the Thai/DeepTissue/cupping session I lost all track of time and left knowing I've found bodywork that will truly bring me back to my Self. It was massage that I will continue to explore and recommend to anyone seeking healing. I took an epsom salt bath after and slept like a baby. My body feels like it is 10 years younger and while I'm sore from the depth, I can tell my muscles are thanking me for the experience. Can't recommend enough. Seriously, go while this is still a hidden gem because he's still under 3 years in business. Sure to be the best massage you've had, maybe ever. read more

Had the best sleep I've had in weeks! Felt rejuvenated after my massage. Highly recommend. Thank you, Grigor!!

Grigor knows how to do it right! He's very thorough, respectful, polite, communicative, and above all incredibly good at his practice. I haven't had such an effective and refined massage in a very long time. Truly felt release for the rest of the day. 5 stars. Highly recommend! read more

I had a great massage and he was so accommodating to my schedule. I was visiting for work and had a jacked up neck and shoulder. This guy is magic and really knows his stuff. Don't be alarmed that it's just a single practice/no front desk etc. he was completely professional . Highly recommend. read more

Grigor is the BEST! I've had deep tissue massages at many different locations, and no one compares. I sprained my ankle years ago, and he worked on that area with noticeable relief without me even mentioning the prior injury. He truly understands what you need.I always leave my sessions feeling lighter and significantly more relaxed read more

My man Grigor isn't going to get a lot of foot traffic at his location, but that just means it will be easier for you to book with him...for now. And you should. For my wife's birthday I got her a massage. Grigor and I talked and I let him know about my wife and what was going on with her. It was a surprise for her, so I wanted him to have some heads up. Well, the day came and she got her massage. We got an hour long massage. My wife went in the door at 3:50, and it opened back up again at 5:15. Holy crap that's value. And the massage? According to my wife, one of the best she's had in her life. Pricing is SUPER reasonable too. And it's a cinch to book a spot on his app. And Grigor is just a good guy too. You can tell he cares about his clients. I work nearby his office and he's come by a couple times just to ask how my wife is doing. You're not going to find a better massage value in the area. He is super skilled, put my wife into a near trance-like state of relaxation, and really helped her with some trouble points she has had. I think a birthday surprise is going to become a regular thing with him. I know you can book a package of massages at a discount, so definitely talk to him about that. Thank you for helping make my wife's birthday so special! read more

Grigor is amazing! As an avid gym-goer who lifts six days a week, I was looking for a sports massage in Glendale, and this was next level. It felt like a chiropractic adjustment and massage all in one. I left feeling completely rejuvenated and aligned. Highly recommend--I'll definitely be back and referring others! read more

Had a great experience at NuBalance Massage. Grigor was friendly, professional, and really skilled. He worked out so much tension and I felt noticeably better right after. I'll definitely be back and I highly recommend him. read more

Grigor is the man and knows his stuff! I train seriously as a strength athlete and my body is always stiff/sore. He pays very close attention to every muscle and is always super respectful about pressure levels/comfortability to ensure the best experience. He has helped me a lot through my recovery days. Highly recommended and will be coming back! read more

Wonderful experience! Grigor was very kind and the service is perfect for those who are in need of pain relief! His availability was perfect for my needs and it was overall very pleasant! read more

GrIgor is absolutely lovely and a master body worker. He figured out what I needed and gave a the most wonderful massage. You will feel incredible especially the morning after. Go see him. read more
