Danielle is the best massage therapist I’ve ever had! I see her monthly and she always tries different techniques to heal various muscles and improve my flexibility. Such a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!!
Courtney L.
I had a massage with Kristen that was amazing! My experience from walking in the door to leaving was wonderful - a beautiful space, incredibly welcoming, and a great deep tissue massage. Kristen listened to what I was hoping for in a massage and did not disappoint. I workout/lift a lot and I was looking for a mix of relaxation and relief of tightness/soreness. Kristen did just that! She used pressure when needed and truly responded to my body. One of the BEST massages I have had - I highly recommend Kristen and Bodywaves!

I had a wonderful deep tissue massage from Danielle a couple of weeks ago. She was attentive and intuitive and I felt totally relieved after. I will definitely book with Danielle again next time!
Harshini A.
I had a wonderful massage. Danielle was so thoughtful & thorough in how she approached the session. She did not waste a single minute. She also made sure to use advance techniques that helped me a lot. I highly recommend Danielle
Mitun P.
Great experience with Danielle! She did a great job at treating areas I’ve had issues for a while. Instantly after the appointment I felt relief in areas I’ve experienced pain for several weeks.

Danielle R. is MAGIC! Let me start by saying professional massages to me are more something I hate to do, but appreciate the outcome. I've had many - with various methods, and I probably went in with the most pain/tension I've held to date to this session. Danielle is one of the few (if not the only) that I not only felt instantly better - but the session itself was lovely, not torture. I recommended her to friends and loved ones immediately after walking out of the session. Such a rare & unexpected find!

What a great place. Traveling from out of town and looking for high quality therapeutic massage. What a find! Historic old building in a cool area of Boston. Soothing deep tissue and a warm friendly atmosphere. So cozy in the deep winter. Highly recommend!!
Skye E.
First time visit with Danielle R. and I had a great experience! Lucky, I got a same day booking. The environment was very relaxing and clean. The service was fantastic looking forward to visiting again.

My massage therapist unfortunately left his practice, and I have been on the hunt for someone new. I saw Danielle and she was amazing. I appreciated that she really listened to me, and checked in to make sure the pressure was comfortable. I'll definitely be back!

I have been coming here for the past few months now. The staff is so kind, warm, and flexible. It’s in a great location, and they truly care about making sure that you have a good experience. Their pricing is also extremely reasonable compared to many other massage places in the Boston area (including the larger chains)!
Cameron N.
Always a fantastic experience at Bodywaves. Have the monthly membership for 90 minutes which makes it so affordable (not to mention the $3 validated parking in this location!). Latest massage with Danielle was just wonderful, she was on point with helping to work out some of the tightness I have from running.
Georgia S.
Amazing massage by Danielle! I got my massage the day after a half marathon feeling very sore and tight - was afraid it was going to be more painful than enjoyable but I was wrong - it was amazing!! Left feeling so relaxed and rejuvenated.
E B.
The most relaxing and peaceful massage experience I have ever had ! Danielle was amazing and professional! Thank you Danielle
Melissa C.
Short vaca in Boston & wanted to surprise my fiancé with a massage. I saw the reviews on Bodywaves Therapeutic Massage and was so lucky that had a 7p appointment available. My fiancé had a massage with Danielle, Im not kidding when I saw his posture improved with 1 massage! I genuinely thought he was getting a permanent hunched posture from work and he walked in with head up, shoulders back, standing tall, I could see the relief he had gotten!!! I’m shocked- he just needed a good massage! He complained everyday of back pain so Thank you!! Highly recommend Danielle, she literally changed my fiancé posture in a little over an hour. Amazing!
Emilie D.
Deb McMahon is magic. I've followed her for years, and she's a keeper. Attentive, professional, intuitive, and so very therapeutic.
Tu M.
Was in town visiting a friend and this place was BEYOND amazing. Neither of us had had massages before and weren't sure how to book and what to get. Anna answered all our questions, got us in w/in 48 hours and recommended Danielle to us. Danielle was sweet and listened to what I liked and did an AMAZING job. I felt like a whole new person after she was done. Would come across the country again for another massage here!
Riley C.
First time ever and it felt so good, all of my knots were gone and will be coming back!! ????
Ethan C.
This place is dope - had an amazing massage here on Monday thanks to Kristen L. Friendly environment and relaxing atmosphere, definitely recommend.
Niko K.
I had a fantastic massage experience today at Body Waves today with my wife. Natalie, my massage therapist did an outstanding job, I felt relaxed and rejuvenated afterward. The environment was perfect, creating a serene and comfortable atmosphere. Moreover, the staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. We’re definitely looking forward to returning for another wonderful massage session.

I have had such a great experience with bodywaves therapeutic massage. The staff is wonderful! And their membership program is amazing: if you miss a massage one month it rolls over to the next and can be gifts to a friend or family member. All the therapists I have worked with are great but I would definitely recommend Kristen! She is incredible!! She can range anywhere from light to firm pressure- I have very tight muscles so I lean towards a more firm pressure and she does that beautifully! I always leave feeling relaxed and pain free!
Besma S.
Bodywaves is such a relaxing peaceful place, in the middle of busy Boston. I have very much enjoyed my massages with Kristen, and always look forward to our appointments! The annual membership worked out to be a great deal, and I would recommend this place to others
Brandon H.
This is a great place to get a massage. The rooms are nice and calming, and they do a great job of making you feel welcome and comfortable. They offer various additional services like hot stones.
Stephany C.
Bodywaves has a great team of massage therapists and a flexible membership that allows unused massages to rollover or be gifted to loved ones which is why I keep choosing them over other places that offer less flexibility. Their massage therapists are very friendly and wonderful overall but I highly recommend Jesse and Kristen for their firm but relaxing work! I strained my neck and shoulders earlier last week and rolled my ankle the weekend before and they both have helped speed up my recovery to the point that with some adjustments I was able to stay on track with my workout routines.
Bron V.
All-around great experience at this place. Staff is friendly, my massage therapist, Kristen is amazing, and the facility is clean.
Clint M.
Moved into the city from the suburbs last year and needed to find a new massage therapist. A friend who I bike with recommended Bodywaves and had great things to say about them... his recommendation turned out to be spot on, i.e. friendly staff, excellent high quality massages, and reasonably priced.
Maria P.
I booked an appointment with Kristen and let me tell you, her hands are magical! The space is so clean and calming. I’m looking forward to my next massage.
Jack Kelly I.
Did the trick
Olivia R.
I had the absolute best experience here! Scheduling was so easy, the staff were very accommodating and friendly, the service was incredible, the space was clean and relaxing, and I felt very comfortable the entire time. I will definitely be back! The experience felt extremely personalized and for a great price! 10/10 recommend!
Emma Putnam O.
Kristen gave me a great 60 minute massage and was so friendly and accommodating. I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for targeted bodywork.
Amy A.
Franklin is a great massage therapist. He took care of my concerns and my targeted parts of body where there was pain and discomfort and help relieved it. His work is magic.
Koroush S.
I had bad back for few years until I discovered Kristen at Bodyworks. Now I go there once a month. She is punctual, professional and great at her job. The rooms are very comfortable. The staff is responsive. The rates are very reasonable compared to other local places. Highly recommend it!
Nicole G.
Very clean facility, professional staff. Kristen is the best! I look forward to my massage every month because of how relaxing the space is and I can rely on the quality of my service.
Juliet “Jay Dubs” W.
Too expensive and not enough availability
Amy G.
Highly recommend! I have been a member for years. The space is clean, relaxing, and inviting, and staff are professional, knowledgable and accommodating. The only negative is that it can get noisy in the evening (they are located above a bar/restaurant), but that has never taken away from my experience. Location is super convenient in the north end/gov't center area.
Eric H.
Very glad I discovered this place. It manages to be both casual and professional, top-notch but not stuffy or ostentatious. Kristen is fantastic: easy-going, friendly, warm, and excellent at her job. I’ll be back.
Harry
Booked a 60 minute session with Jesse for my girlfriend while I was out of state. Due to some miscommunication between my partner and I, we had to reschedule it twice, which they were happy to do! My girlfriend told me it was so relaxing and wants to become a member. Overall a very positive experience, I’m going to have to get a massage for myself some time!
Philip D.
Really nice atmosphere, and caring professionals. I've always had a great time - Jesse is the best!
Zack
Kristen is the best! I've come to her multiple times and will continue to. Not only are her massages on point, but her relatable and down-to-earth attitude makes the experience both relaxing and enjoyable.
Joseph G.
Bodywaves Therapeutic Massage is a great place to get a relaxing massage. The atmosphere is soothing and Kristen makes the experience with going back to.
Jennifer M.
Best massage place I've been to in the city! Highly recommend it. Plus, it's very centrally located and easy to get to via public transit. The place is very clean and inviting. The staff is attentive and create a welcoming environment. I've been getting monthly massages from Jesse for over a year now and can't recommend him enough!
Kristina S.
It was very enjoyable massage and everybody was very nice and helpful. Place is clean and relaxing. The only thing I would have like to have known ahead of time is that it was a walk up with no elevator. But in any case it was a very enjoyable massage and I will be back
Aj M.
A wonderful place to relax. If practicing self-care is your thing, schedule regular massages and join the Self-Care Challenge. Type ‘The 60-Day Self-Care Challenge: a Guided Journal for Women to Feel Energized, Refreshed and Light’ in Amazon’s search bar and order your copy of this beautiful accountability companion.
Logan W.
A wonderful place, and results that leave you truly feeling better! I highly recommend Allison. She took the time to better understand my areas of need, and delivered a focused massage that addressed my ailments. I walked in with pain, and left feeling relief. I'm not from Boston, but I will always stop in when I am here! Don't think twice! Book an appointment.
Robbie A.
Best massage I've ever had; Sophie was not only great with her hands, but would give feedback on the lifestyle habits that were causing my tension, and suggestions on ways to prevent future tightness. Didn't feel any kind of sales pitch, which was a huge relief coming from past experiences at chain locations
Emily C.
I highly recommend this place. Super clean and relaxing atmosphere. Great location. The massage therapist, Jon, did a great job and was very professional. My only problem is they cut off the massage pretty abruptly at the end of time. It felt like being woken up in the middle of a nice nap (I wasn’t napping I promise lol). I’d rather have had them wrap up whatever part of the massage they were at and then call it time, even if that meant ending a few minutes early. I’ve seen people complain in other comments about ending early though, so I can see why it was like that.
Carla N.
Frank was awesome and really understood my issues and addressed them all. I would highly recommend him for a massage and specifically for therapeutic massage.
Omar A.
Good massage sessions.
Katherine T.
Jon was very flexible and accommodating. It was a professional and relaxing environment and I felt comfortable with the COVID protocols. The entry survey was long but useful and I even got stretching tips for my problem areas after my massage
Cody J.
First time visiting for a 90 minute appointment. They were extensive in asking about my needs and addressed a variety of spots during a deep tissue session that could be the cause of my lower and upper back pain.
Aditi K.
Franklin is an awesome massage therapist! Extremely knowledgeable and effective.
Steven L.
Bodywaves is an oasis in the heart of Haymarket. Do not let the bustle of the market deter you; once you lie down in the bed you will be transported. I’ve had two massages here and both were absolutely fantastic. Reasonable COVID protocols are in place and I felt incredibly safe during my time in the building and while interacting with staff. Jesse was kind, attentive, and talented. I will certainly be back. Please support this small business and help ensure they stick around!
Adeel S.
They are now deleting my review haha. Anyways, I would try to make sure once again you guys dont waste your money here. *I paid for the 90 mins massage and the masseur only did the massage for 65 mins*. I assure you that this is the same as other cheap massage centers where they charge more and give you less services. Never coming again here.
Mary Elaine R.
I’m 5 months pregnant and my back was absolutely killing me. Best massage I’ve ever gotten and the room was so calming and beautiful. I can’t wait to return!
Eduardo J López Morin (.
I had a EXCELLENT couple massage (covid age) with my wife . We will totally go back whenever we can, it was worth it. The give you 2 rooms with a space where you can see and talk to each other. It was pretty nice despite covid rules. The massage is an all body thing and they make you feel quite relax
Kelly S.
Massage was great, you have to wear a mask when face up, and face down you will breathe into a pillow case.
Jacqueline S.
Jonathan and Brian are excellent massage therapists. My husband and I got a couples massage and they were fantastic. The atmosphere is very cozy and clean and the customer service is phenomenal. I highly recommend
Niki B.
I always have a great experience at Bodywaves. The massage therapists have always listened and customized my massage accordingly. Plus all the COVID measures in place are great, I felt really comfortable and safe.
Craig C.
One of the best massages of my life.. seriously. I had Tabitha. She had reviewed my notes but also confirmed in room my areas of attention. Also provided her feedback and how she would work through. Then, honestly she provided one the best deep tissue massages I’ve ever had(Attention, pressure, workflow). Highly recommend. If you’re worried about the pandemic - don’t prevent it from getting some much needed work done here. She took great care with safety measures(temp, sanitizer, provided masks etc).
Carly H.
Highly recommend to anyone with wear and tear on their muscles from travel and exercise and just every day stressors. I love the monthly membership not only because it holds me accountable to a regular reset but also because it works. The location is so easy to access, steps away from the Haymarket T stop. I can’t rave about this place enough to my colleagues, friends and workout buddies.
Dani
Great place!
Robert J.
Absolutely amazing staff very helpful in finding what your needs and wants are in a massage.
Barrett
I arrived feeling tight, sore, and beat up. After 60 minutes, I left very happy feeling loose and free for the first time in years. Fantastic experience, I highly recommend.
Katie M.
This place is relaxing, clean and professional. Great staff, would recommend it to anyone
Daniel C.
Bodywaves has a pleasant studio space, and a prompt and helpful staff. This was my first visit and my therapist was excellent. He went straight to the problem areas and gave me a very well integrated massage. I needed the body work and benefited very much from it. I'll definitely come back.
Michael G.
Came here for a 90 minute massage on a whim after work. Lori was amazing! She was very attentive and asked for problem areas that she was sure to prioritize. Great experience, will be back.
Brooke B.
We came for a couples massage. Brian was exceptional. He tailored the service to what I needed and gave me recommendations afterwards! Would recommend him to anyone.
Robert B.
I had a perfect initial treatment today. I had deep muscle work done. I expressed my concerns and areas that needed most attention and the therapist utilized that information as well as his own professional assessment to treat me appropriately. I cannot wait to go back.
Cece C.
Can't wait to go back! I had been looking forward to getting a therapeutic/deep tissue massage for a long time. I felt like Lily really took her time with each spot. The time went by nice and slowly and my body felt great afterward.
Sebastian E.
After my first two massages I ended up becoming a member. I will say if you tell them full pressure they will get the knots out. You might end up bruised, but they get you moving again. I am extremely happy with all therapists I have used!
A Google U.
I recently moved to Boston from NYC where I was spoiled with how many great massage spots there were. I searched around Boston for quite a while until I found Bodywaves. And IT IS THE BEST. I have had several different therapists and they are all great. I liked it so much that I became a member and get treatments at least once a month. Great for the mind, body and soul! Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed!
Don C.
After experiencing continued range of motion issues after a hip replacement four years ago, I made an appointment with Lily. She did a great job listening to my concerns, making recommendations on diet supplements, and kneading the soreness and tightness out of me. Very friendly folks there, and I'll definitely be back to see Lily.
Alexis S.
Patrick and John always do such a great job with my tense shoulders and neck pain. I get headaches often from my neck and shoulders and I alway go to Body wave for my quick and long term solutions. The receptionist is so helpful with my busy schedule and I feel the service is worth the price. The membership is definitely worth it for healing and recovery.
Santiago U.
Had a great experience with knowledgeable masseuse and a great reception
Jim D.
Good service for it's price
Brian J.
Nice location, and the therapists are really great. They don't hire amateurs.
B D.
Great massage, Caitlin was fantastic. Nice clean environment, I will definitely be back
Jaclyn Z.
Absolutely love Anna and had SUCH a fabulous experience with Lori! I literally just left and feel so incredibly relaxed . It was so needed!! They are definitely the place to go when you need some relaxation and releasing tension! Lori incorporated energy work into my massage too, I just absolutely loved it! Highly recommend!
Eric F.
It was a great experience here. We were treated really well and had a wonderful relaxing couples massage. We would definitely go back.
Garrett M.
I've been here twice and the staff is phenomenal. I'll be going back regularly.
David M.
A peaceful oasis in the midst of Boston's bustling Haymarket district. Clean, quiet, well-run, and indeed therapeutic. Alison was very skillful and obviously experienced in her work. She was able to identify my areas of built up tension and work on them to great effect. She is also a very friendly person with many other interests, and we passed the time in pleasant conversation. Afterwards I felt relaxed and refreshed, and I noticed immediate improvement in my problem areas. For a wonderful massage experience I recommend Bodywaves to my family and friends as well as to the general public.
Carla E.
Super professional and had a great experience. I was extremely relaxed and pressure was firm but perfect. Felt a huge difference afterwards.
Monica C.
Amazing experience! Beautiful and relaxing space, Frank got out all the knots, and Anna at the front desk was very kind and helpful!
Shalin P.
Best place in Boston to get a massage. Great, easy location to walk to (they also validate parking if you need). Friendly staff. Membership pricing is very fair. Nick is a great massage therapist. I always leave there feeling refreshed. Definitely recommend Bodywaves!
Mark B.
Great first experience. The only massage place that could see us same day, and both our masseuses paid great attention to us and also gave us self care advice.
Olivia S.
Got a massage today from Nick and feel SO much better. Also had a great experience with Frank. I really like this place, the people, and the membership is a pretty good deal. Looking forward to going each month.
Abood A.
Just go there and you are all sit. Best massage ever by Catlin
Kate J.
Caitlin is amazing. She is so knowledgeable about the body and she's got an amazing way with people. I'm definitely coming back. My body feels incredible!
Paul M.
Outstanding place to get a massage - I booked day of, with back pain, and was able to get a great massage that balanced physical therapy with relaxation. The facility is nice and clean, and the staff is extremely friendly. Great spot for anyone who has their office downtown to go before, during or after work.
Zoe W.
I enjoyed my massage with Farrah (she’s very nice and focused on the places I needed) but my boyfriend had a TERRIBLE massage: he told his masseuse where he wanted her to focus and she completely ignored the area and wouldn't turn on the heater in his room because she 'couldn't work like that' (both our rooms were freezing but Farrah turned the heater on when I asked). His main takeaway was that she just didn't want to be there - she kept sighing, had garlic breath, and was totally checked out. When she found a knot, she didn’t try to work it through, even when he asked. We've gotten a lot of massages over the years and he said this was the worst he's ever experienced. We could also hear the bar pretty consistently since there was a big game happening. Defiantly don’t understand all the rave reviews - not worth the price at all.
Elizabeth C.
If you saw my review on YELP, you know what to do. Make an appointment asap- after a massage with Franklin, it will change the way you approach your entire week.To summarize my YELP review: the combination of techniques (deep tissue/ orthopedic/pressure release, etc.) used by the therapists at Bodywaves will not only provide you with lasting improvements in your posture/sore muscles/stress level, you will also take notice much more quickly when your posture/tight muscles/stress are influencing the way you carry yourself. This learned recognition helps to prevent the old habits from settling back in. Thank you, Bodywaves, for guiding my muscles, ligaments and tendons back where they need to be, keeping me healthy, happy and less physically responsive to stress!
Jennifer B.
My boyfriend and I had a couple's massage today, and it was absolutely lovely. The room was nice and quiet, and the lotion they used was very pleasant smelling. They took the time after to tell us where we had the most tension, and to recommend how to stay on top of it. They also brought us nice cool cups of water to wrap everything up. They were very skilled- both of us fell asleep a few times. We'll certianly be back next time we're in the city!
Kathleen C.
I had the best deep sports massage!! And the staff is great and knowledgeable.
Nathan W.
Highly recommended. Professional and relaxing atmosphere, I will be going back again and bringing friends!
David B.
I have been to Bodywaves 10+ times over the last 2 years and highly recommend them. Their staff is always professional & courteous, and massage therapists take time to get to know why you are there before providing the massage service.
Elizabeth C.
Bodywaves is a great. I've seen both Franklin and Caitlin and they are both fantastic. They are able to work all the kinks out leaving me feel amazing when leaving. Added bonus is they will validate parking for the nearby garage. Highly recommended!
Michael W Daly S.
Excellent couples massage
Carol M.
Called several times and left a voicemail. Never got a call back. It’s been 4 days. Guess they’re too busy for new clients or just don’t care.
Rebecca R.
Bodywaves is convenient, affordable and the best place to get a massage in North Boston. Would definitely recommend!
Thomas H.
This is a great place to go and just let go of everything and relax
Jennifer K.
Terrific atmosphere and massage.
Beth C.
Pretty good experiences here, though the therapists are all very individualized in their approaches. I find the location very convenient, because it is at the intersection of the Orange and Green lines.
Mac Z.
Poor customer service from Derek. They say they want to be "dedicated to helping Boston reach their goals towards health and relaxation" but the staff were very stubby and rude. Perhaps getting too popular for their britches! Would not recommend.
Busto R.
This place is absolutely awesome! Caitlyn and eve were great, and it was no lie the best massage I've ever had. Very friendly staff and the location is great too. There is even a parking garage across the street if you don't like parking in the north end area. I can't wait to go back. This place is the best!
Sara S.
Excellent massage practice. I have been going here once a month for years. Wonderful therapists, professional and comfortable. Due to the location, it can be a bit noisy, but that does not bother me. Highly recommended.
Sy
This place is top shelf! You won't be disappointed.

I had heard once from a yoga teacher that "Massage is the lazy man's yoga." I had to stop doing yoga because it was killing my knees - so once a month I went to BodyWaves. I've had a few of the massage therapists at BodyWaves and they were all excellent. All of them. Natalie stands out. I don't know where she gets her strength. Her massages were truly therapeutic. She knows her anatomy. The massage rooms are very clean and smell so nice. I always looked forward to going to BodyWaves. That it was next to the Boston Food Market and the North End often made it an outing. I would highly recommend BodyWaves.
Mark J.
I went because I saw all the amazing reviews and I was so disappointed. I went hoping to have the best relaxing time ever and to my surprise it was freezing cold. The music was amazing, the therapist was great, but the environment was very cold. I would not go back again, not during the winter for sure.
Jacklyn M.
The best place ever! Margo is a queen :)
Renata M.
I was referred by Davis Sq. Chiropractic. I found Bodywaves to be a very welcoming, clean and comfortable place. The staff gave an attentive ear to your body concerns and worked on easing my discomfort. I found Carlton to be an outstanding massage therapist. I found the location safe and easy to get to by MBTA. The office was refurbish with a very clean line and contained art work for sale in each one of the rooms. If you choose to go for a treat, weekly for stress, or monthly for rehabilitation, Bodywaves has reasonable offers for your needs. I especially liked the monthly deal I received. I had the option of carrying over a missed monthly massage to the next month. This place is worth a visit and earns its five gold stars with me!
Elizabeth F.
I absolutely LOVE Bodywaves. It's a very relaxing environment, is generally quiet (except during Haymarket farmer's market hours!) and the therapists are AWESOME. We have tried 4 different therapists who were all great and very responsive to our needs and ares of most concern. My husband and I have a monthly pass so it allows us to go regularly for a relaxing massage. We have even enjoyed couple's massages together. The hours are also very convenient to accommodate a busy work schedule and the location is perfect--right across from Haymarket T stop.

I have been going here regularly for over a year. The staff are awesome. The price is right and the membership deals are even better.
Jen P.
Great place; professional, relaxing, efficient. Margo is a very good masseuse; she listens to whats going on in my body and tailors the massage accordingly.
Alexa B.
Patrick is a miracle worker! Can't say enough good things about him. One of the best decisions I've made this year is becoming a member. The entire staff is extremely welcoming, friendly and professional. The studio is super clean and cozy. I wanted to make regular massage a part of my health and wellness routine, but finding the right place in Boston wasn't easy. Once I had my first massage with Patrick, I was hooked.
Allison A.
Bodywaves Therapeutic Massage is fantastic! The therapists take the time to listen to you explain which areas of your body are in pain or are giving you discomfort, and not only concentrate on those areas during the session, but recommend how you can help alleviate pain or stretch your muscles at home. I will be back soon for a much-needed massage. They are service-oriented and the prices are very reasonable.
Michelle M.
Bodywaves is my haven! Admittedly, when they first opened, the service was a bit inconsistent where I received both wonderful massages and average massages, as well as one that was just awful. But, any new business has growing pains, and have they outgrown those! Derrick at the front desk is so warm and welcoming every time I call or go in for a massage. And, Adam and Patrick have different methods but are both wonderfully therapeutic in their own right. They listen to what's ailing or needed and respond accordingly in the most wonderful ways. I have and will continue to recommend, buy giftcards from, and spread the word about Bodywaves. They are my respite!!
Shari M.
I absolutely love Bodywaves Therapeutics. Not only are the staff amazing, but the space is beautiful and relaxing. I usually see Margo who has helped me with muscle strain and tension issues. Not only through massage, but gave me information on what to do for myself to help. When I can't see Margo the other staff has always been wonderful. They are very knowledgeable, professional and friendly.
Shawna Pelton (Quantum S.
What an great experience! Bodywaves has a warm and relaxing atmosphere, clean facility, and incredible professionals working for them. I had an painful injury and the massage therapist new exactly how to handle my needs. I highly recommend this place!
Jacob W.
Easily the most relaxing massage experience I've ever had. Came in for a couple's massage with my girlfriend, who had an equally relaxing experience. Even bought her a three month membership for our anniversary, which she loved. Best massage in Boston.
Aisha M.
Awesome place
Robin P.
My first visit was on a Groupon, and now I am a monthly member. And each time a friend comes to town, I set them up with an appointment also. The space is relaxing, the massages are great, and the prices are very reasonable (especially for the first time discounts). Plus, they will validate parking - $3 for 2 hours in the Government Center garage to accommodate your appointment.
Daniel Z.
When it comes to massages, I go to say that this is the best massage in boston. After checking out different massage places I keep coming back to Body Waves over and over as their prices, overall experience and the convenience of their location all work together exceptionally well. In addition to a great service, they have a parking validation - good luck finding such a great deal anywhere in Quincy Market area. The masseuse that I usually use, Daniell is great and truly cares about her work. I highly recommend her and this place in general for anyone looking to escape the daily routine and work stress, as this oasis will replenish you with energy and will allow you to get back to life 10 years younger! - That's how I feel today.
May A.
I have been a member for over a year and I love coming to Bodywaves. The staff there are friendly and welcoming. I go to see Franklin and he is amazing. I also love the location because it is accessible via the T. Can't get enough of this place!
John D.
Just had a great 90 minute massage at Bodywaves. It was one of the best massages I have ever had. Relaxing, but also therapeutic, as I had some muscle tension due to exercise and travel. I highly recommend them.
Tracey S.
Would highly recommend! Bodywaves is a beautiful massage studio located in Haymarket Square- great location and easy to get to whether driving or using public transportation. If you do drive in, park in the Parcel 7 Garage on Sudbury street (next street over), they'll validate your parking at 1$/hr! The studio is absolutely gorgeous, with exposed brick and beautiful artwork throughout, it's very clean, welcoming and relaxing. The front desk staff was nice and offered me water while filling out my intake form. I have been battling some tendinitis in my shoulder, so I was looking for deep focus work- but not too much as to make it sore or painful the next day. My massage therapist listened and addressed my needs exactly as I was hoping, she checked in a couple of times around stated injury to make sure her techniques felt effective and also worked deep enough to release knots & tension in others areas.When my session ended I felt relaxed, NOT overly greasy ( which is hard to come by) and my shoulder had more mobility with a lot less pain! I didn't hear anything from the busy city below and I was there on a Monday between 3-5. Overall a great experience, bodywork like this is whats going to help keep my shoulder healthy & less prone to further injury. I'll definitely be coming back!

I highly recommend Bodywaves for a great massage in a very relaxing environment! After speaking with Derek and setting an appointment, I arrived on a Sunday afternoon for a 60 minute session. The staff and masseuse very extremely professional and the massage relieved a lot of aches and pain from working all day on my feet.

I've been relying on Bodywaves to sooth my aching back for a year now. They do a great job and always look forward to my next appointment. When the back pain got so bad I couldn't lift my arm I started shopping around Boston for a great massage. After a long search I'm glad to have finally settled here. The establishment is always clean and has a relaxing atmosphere. The staff are friendly and accommodating and my massage therapist, Margot, is the best!

The location is great, and the office, on the third floor of a walk-up, is soothing and well-decorated without feeling "clinical" like some places. The treatment rooms are quiet and cool. I didn't hear much noise from outside at all, and this was during open hours at the market. I would say if you're quite concerned, try weekday hours, but I didn't notice more than the usual dull hum of living in a city. The massage itself was great. The therapist checked in multiple times about the amount of pressure and made me feel very comfortable. He listened to my litany of aches and pains and really did great work on my shoulders (woe betide the office worker). He also recommended some really helpful stretches I could do at home. Everyone I encountered was warm, welcoming, and professional, from the front desk to the massage therapist. Would absolutely recommend.
