Massage Envy - Apple Valley, MN

I've had mostly good experiences here, however I ultimately cancelled my membership because it's practically impossible to find an appointment! I have to try and book out 2 months in advance to get a time that remotely works for me (after work time beginning around 4-6pm). Also, I prefer a deep tissue massage and it seems like there are very few of their employees who will do one.

Great massages... hate the monthly massage sales pitch

Went to get relief from a migraine and tight neck. The therapist gave me a very uncomfortable massage. She never asked if something was bothering me or offered helpful relaxation tips. Her techniques were very counter productive, and after an hour I walked out feeling much worse than I had when I walked in. After being incapacitated for two days and unable to work I called and asked for a refund. Rather than offering my money back or giving me a credit, they offered to let me pay $50 more dollars to do it again. I'd rather not be out the $150 dollars for diservice, thanks.

Re: Poor Quality Message & Customer Service My first message experience at the Apple Valley location was a good one, so when I was approached to sign up for their year membership I agreed. I called for my next appointment and I was told that the therapist was no longer there. I then made an appointment with another therapist. It was not very good, but I thought I would try the therapist again just to be fair. When I called I was told the therapist was no longer there. What happened over the next number of months was that if I found a therapist I liked, she was difficult to get into (I got the impression many have other jobs) and/or the therapist no longer worked there. I called about 2/3rds of the way through my contract to complain I was unhappy with the quality of the service and wanted to end my contract. I was informed this would not be allowed, but they would set me up with someone they thought I would like. The message was good, but when I tried to get another appointment the same old cycle continued. When I went in to cancel my membership I was told I would be charged for an additional month because I missed the deadline. They also said I had three sessions still available. I said great. I used 1.5 sessions. When I called to use my last 1.5 session I was told my account had expired and my sessions that I had paid for were no longer available. When I said they did not tell me that there was expiration. I was told it was in my contract. Wow! For a company that is supposed to be for relaxation and helping, I did not find either the service or the customer service to be so. I recommend people to stay clear of the Apple Valley site as they obviously have poor management.

I have heard rumors that allege Massage Envy are booking nonmembers before Members because their hourly rate for nonmembers is $10 per hour higher. I have had the same Massage Therapist at ME for over 6 year’s. In those 6 years I have never had a problem scheduling a massage that is until the last 4 months. Now amazingly she is booked out for 6 weeks in advance. This involves the Apple Valley location.
