Elements Massage

After canceling my membership, I received three separate phone calls about an upcoming massage appointment. Basically what happened was that the receptionist did not properly cancel a previous massage appointment that I had. But what made it worse is that even after telling them a second time that I had wanted to cancel the session, I received another phone call reminding me about a massage appointment. It doesn’t get any more annoying than this. Please do yourself a favor, and avoid this company.

I called this morning at 8:40am, and was able to get a 10am appointment with LaTonya for a deep tissue massage. She was amazing! The staff was attentive and courteous. I didn’t have to think twice about becoming a Wellness Member. It’s only a month-​to-​month commitment at $ 69/month…plus you can use your flexible medical spending account. You can also add one person as an Associate member under your account to take advantage of member benefits. Can’t wait for my next massage in two weeks!

Romena is outstanding! Absolutely incredible. Love this place! It is relaxing and at phenomenal prices.

Elements massage is amazing. I got hurt at work, have a protruding disc. The therapists at elements have and are still helping feel like I don’t have an injury. They are helping me to regain back my life. The listen to your needs and concerns. I feel very safe at elements because of their knowledge base and skills. I highly recommend sandy with the king fu fingers and her atomic elbow that busts through deep tissue knots. They rock at elements.

Bill! He was absolutely amazing which promoted me to come back for more. Sad that he isn’t here, but I’ve scheduled with Stephanie whom I hear is wonderful as well. Can’t wait to leave a follow up review!!!

Overall, this is a great place to receive a massage. They have extremely reasonable pricing and good customer service. My husband and I recently signed up for a membership as we felt they had the best deals and package for our continuous needs as we work at desks on the computer all day. We have gone multiple times now and overall the massage therapists are friendly, have great techniques, and really take into account our pain points and preferred pressure. This locations is clean, nicely put together, and again the service provided by therapists, receptionists, and management staff is awesome!

This is a nice place to get a massage. The front staff is friendly and the massage therapists are nice. My first massage could have been much better, but the ones after that were pretty nice and relaxing. I guess I couldn’t enjoy the massages as much because they were prenatal massages. I can’t comment on the regular massages.
I don’t agree with the pressure to sign people up for monthly massages. I know some massage centers like to do that, but I’ve never felt comfortable by sales pitches and the feeling of obligation to sign up. Although Elements Massage is a nice place, I prefer to go to another place in Irvine. The owner is super friendly and his therapists give excellent massages at that particular place, and there is never any pressure to give your debit card number to be charged every first of the month, whether you feel like getting a massage or not. Yes you can cancel the membership with Elements at any time, but I’d rather not go through the hassle of signing up and remembering to cancel before the card is charged. I prefer the freedom to make my own schedule and pay as I go. If you prefer to get a massage every month at a discounted rate though, membership may be right for you.

The staff is extremely friendly, informative, and knowledgeable. I come in for deep tissue massages and the massage therapists are amazing. I see a therapist named Bill and he is phenominal. I am part of the wellness program in which you get discounted massages. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends.

My usual therapist was unavailable so Elements called me the morning of my scheduled treatment to recommended Sandy or offered to reschedule. Went with it and am so glad I did. Such a good massage! She was able to work out my shoulder kinks, neck issues and even gave my keyboard-​tired forearms some much needed relief.
While I usually see Romina every therapist I have tried here is excellent!

Elements Massage is my escape from all things stressful. They provide a perfect package of what I look for in a massage getaway because they have a friendly staff, amazing massage therapists (Sandy is fantastic), affordable prices, and a clean/​peaceful environment.
Since my first massage, I’ve always requested for Sandy– she’s constantly catering to my needs and assists in alleviating all of the kinks, knots, and sore muscles I accumulate from crossfit. Unlike most spas, they don’t provide options of Swedish, Deep Tissue, Reflexology, etc. but instead, allow the customer to request any type of massage at a flat rate. Sandy conducts a brief consultation prior to the massage to get an idea of the areas that I need worked on and then gives amazing massages that would rival those of Massage Envy, Glen Ivy, and Aveda. Prior to moving to Irvine, those three were my go-​to when I was in college or in my mid-20’s.
They also provide a Wellness Program that is fairly straight forward– on the first of every month, they charge a $ 69 fee (for a 1 hr massage when their normal price is $ 99) and I can reserve a massage at any time for that month. There aren’t any cancellation fees and they allow roll-​overs, free of charge. Monthly massages at a discounted rate? Sign me up.

I was able to get an appointment same day and had great deep tissue massage from Bill. Overall good experience.

Elements Massage is incredible! Manny and his team are true professionals who genuinely care about providing the best experience possible.
I have been to more than a few massage clinics and can say without a doubt that Elements Massage is the best of the best, I will definitely be returning.

I had a private party at elements the day before my wedding and i just wanted to say thank you for making my guest happy! We left so relaxed and happy. Thank you sandy and Stephanie for making sure my girls feeling amazing. Ambrosia thanks for making sure my grandmother had a pleasant experience since that was her first massage ever! I highly recommend elements for a private party and especially if you just want to come in for a very relaxing day:)

Your people know what they are doing and ask often if pressure is okay or if pressure needs to be reduced or increased. That is the best… Because every body part tends to have different pressure sensitivity and I really like that she was more firm on my hips and softer on my neck.
I went to iSpa down the street before… It was good… But this place takes the cake by far.

My boyfriend gave me a gift certificate for Christmas for two massages. Fancy, I know. I’m mentioning this because I wouldn’t have invested on my own. I mean, it’s just not something I feel is needed, I could save that money towards a house.
However. Sometimes dear reader, Leslie is too quick to judge. I walked in and was greeted by a very friendly woman, I believe her name is Joy. Very full of Joy too! I was about 30 minutes early for my massage, but they had me fill out paperwork in case I died or anything. Nbd. Joy literally knew when I had finished filling it out because she popped up at the perfect time. She asked me if I wanted to use the restroom. I told her YAAAAAAS PLEEEEEEASE. I drink a lot of coffee, and I didn’t have time to stop at home and brush my teeth. I always carry a travel toothbrush and toothpaste, but they had mouthwash there in the bathroom, a long with a ton of other amenities.
So the massage: since I scheduled ahead of time and preferred a female, I was paired up with Romina. Romina is… well, she’s an angel. She asked me whether I preferred light or hard massage. I told her light-​medium. I’m not going to lie. It was painful, especially when she got to my shoulders and lower back. I’m probably such an uptight person that I had a lot of knots and things to work out. Honestly, I do feel better though. Even after the pain I felt. I feel a lot better, actually.
I rescheduled my second appointment with the front desk afterwards. I’m not going to be seeing Romina again. Not because of anything she has done, when I come back for full body, I will definitely reschedule with her. This next time I’m going to see their reflexologist. Hopefully I’ll be able to write a review for you all if I’m not in another heavenly daze.
Thank you Romina, Joy, and Elements on Von Karman!

Pros: Unilocal check in offer as of Nov 2015 for 1 hour massge ($ 69)! Quality massages.
Cons: Without the Unilocal offer, might be little too pricey ($ 99)
I typically get massages at those Asian reflexology places. The problem with those places are those Asian men really try to beat you up when you’re getting a massage and I didn’t feel like that today.
I did a local Unilocal search for massages and I found this place down the street. It’s located in the same shopping plaza as the Walmart. When you walk in, there’s a small reception area with a waiting room. Since it was my first time there, I had to fill out a form with some of my information.
When it was time for my massage, they lead you to a another hallway with a couple private rooms. I’m so used to the reflexology places so it was nice not having to share a room with a bunch of other people (most of the time where those other people are snoring loudly haha).
The massage itself was great. The masseuse was good about asking if the pressure was too soft or too hard. It was definitely a relaxing experience. I didn’t want the hour to be over.
Anyway, I was worried that I was going to be pressured into signing up for more appointments, but as soon as I was done, I paid and I was on my way. Really appreciated that I wasn’t sold on their monthly massage program. Overall, worth checking out if you’re looking for a nice hour massage.

I absolutely love this place! The staff are very professional and welcoming. I felt very comfortable as soon as I arrived.
My masseuse was Elena and she was amazing! She knew how to work every kink and knot I had. I had a migraine when I arrived but as soon as Elena was done my migraine was gone and I no longer felt pressure on my shoulders. Elena is a true miracle worker. She makes you feel comfortable and definitely knows what she is doing.
I signed up for the wellness program because I’m definitely coming back. I already scheduled a couples massage for my boyfriend and I. I already can’t wait to come back!

Pros:
— Clean
— Friendly staff
— Easy check-​in process
— Relaxing/​comforting atmosphere
— Amazing massage therapist!
Cons:
NONE! :D

I first tried out Elements a few months ago, and since then I’ve been hooked! My back/​neck are extremely knotty, so I rely on chiropractic care/​massage therapy to relieve some of the pain and help ease my tension headaches. I’ve returned twice since my initial visit, and have signed up for their monthly wellness program. Jay and Stephanie are wonderful! Before you get started, they do a small consultation with you asking if anything’s bothering you, and once you speak to them about that, they pay extra attention to those areas. I always leave feeling much more relaxed and my aches and pains are much better as a result! I highly, highly recommend this place!
Update as of 4÷29÷16: Jay has left Elements unfortunately, so now I’ve switched over to Carol as my usual massage therapist. She’s awesome and has the softest hands ever! I always fall asleep on her table. Definitely recommend!

Simply amazing experience here! I was quite skeptical at first, but my girlfriend was treating me to a deep tissue massage, and I couldn’t turn down a free massage! 1 hour later and all of the years of working out and tension from working in an office was gone! It was one of the most painful massages but also relieving at the same time. I would also like to say that I felt amazing afterwards too! I’ve noticed that although I felt bruised and tender, I also felt increased flexibility and endurance at the gym, and less aching and pain while sitting for long periods of time in the office. I am convinced of the healing of deep tissue massages and I am planning on signing up for the monthly $ 69 membership this weekend!
I will update once I can get the name of the masseuse I had and also once I receive more massages from this place.
