Sensitive Touch Massage

I book a prenatal massage for my wife and the establishment is an old house hidden up a hill so just fyi your going in the right direction a little sketchy but ur in the right spot I park under the carport, backing your car in might be a option parking is very tight my wife enjoyed the massage very much the seating outside is very serene a little breeze and sunshine and the birds chirping, don't expect this to be a modern setting it's an old house converted. Thank you Carmel Massage

I was very excited and had high hopes for my couple's massage at this location based off of what appeared to be a unique space with very good reviews from other people's experiences. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with my massage due to lack of attention to my expressed problem area, inconsistent pressure throughout my massage and overall quality of massage.

The pressure initially was great but after about ten minutes became much weaker. I was asked three times if I was okay throughout my massage when I was just relaxing silently on the massage table- this was very odd to me. I don't remember my masseuse's name but she was elderly with short white hair- very pleasant lady otherwise. However, my partner verbalized that had a wonderful massage with Michelle.

I could hear her communicating with him and confirming that target areas were being attended too with breathing techniques as well. She even gave suggestions on how to ease tension areas in regards to his work day. The view from the room is gorgeous however, we were not given time to enjoy it other than we were getting undressed and dressed. The massage experience felt rushed over all and although there was relaxing music playing during the session I was shocked that I could hear sporadic, loud foot steps and vacuuming coming from the floor below us during our massage. I honestly had high hopes for this experience and hope that this was a rarity on this company's part moving forward.

When we moved to the area last year my wife and I were hunting for a good massage studio. After a few missteps we were lucky enough to find Carmel Massage. We see them every two weeks, my wife sees Michelle and I see Noel. We love them both. Very knowledgeable and intuitive, and able to work out all of the knot and kinks and aches. Very nice people, worth every cent!

A truly special experience. I hired Kerry, Andres, Thomas and Tatiana to come to my baby shower and give about 20 massages. They were so incredibly professional, great amount of pressure and accommodating to so many different people's needs. I can't wait to come visit their location for a future massage. Would hire this team again in a heartbeat!

Well they never returned my phone call after someone said they're walking down stairs to call me for availability for this last Sunday for my sisters bachelorette party. so idk. Glad I didn't book them. I had 7 girls wanting massages.

My fiancee and I just got back from a couples' massage here. We absolutely loved it! The view, natural sunlight and sounds of nature were a bonus. We had Brittany and Michelle as massage therapists. Brittany gave me one of the best massages I've ever had. She made sure I was comfortable while also working on my problem areas. She found tension in muscles I did not know existed.

Her scalp massage almost put me to sleep! My fiancee loved her massage as well. She had injured her ankle a few weeks ago and Michelle really helped her with any areas of tension. Both Brittany and Michelle really paid attention to our individual needs. We will definitely be back when visiting Carmel again!

Before I start. I was reading other reviews and can't believe there's a different Jeff H who had a bad experience here. Lol Wish I could put zero stars. We booked a couples massage for our anniversary trip, giving them our card and personal information. Only to show up and find out our appointment was not in their calendar. We were then half-heartedly apologized to and promised that we would receive vouchers in the mail for a future couples massage (they literally took down our address and everything). But. It's now been several months and it turns out that the vouchers were just as important to them as our first appointment. No massage, no voucher. Maybe if I could get a massage when I book one, I wouldn't write negative reviews.

What an invigorating experience this was. We opted for the couples massage, both for 1.5 hours, they ( Robin & Brittany) I hope I got the names correct were fantastic. They made us feel comfortable, we ended up nearly falling asleep. They really cater to your body's needs i.e Prior history of surgery, areas of concern. I highly recommend. We will definitely be back!

I can't edit the review but there is a line missing. Where the letter P is. My wife had asked them not to put her hands in her hair because she just had her hair done and that is when they rolled their eyes.

The best massage I've ever had. I had serious back and neck aches and feel so much better after my one hour deep tissue session, which focused on those problem areas. The setting is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. I will definitely return if I visit this area again.

My husband and I took our babymoon to Yosemite and Carmel-by-the-sea, and I spent an afternoon here for a prenatal massage. Hands down, this was the best massage I've ever had, and I've had a few. I had a 90 minute prenatal massage from Brittany, and not only was the massage absolutely wonderful-especially after flights, hikes in Yosemite, and sitting in a car for hours-but she also gave me great tips for future stretches to help with my pregnancy and was genuinely just so nice beforehand and afterward. I would 100% come back here if I'm in the area and I would recommend to anyone looking for a massage in the area to check it out!

Called on a Sunday to get an appointment for the following Friday and Noel said she would call back because she wasn't in the studio to see her schedule. It's Tuesday evening and she never called so I called her and was told they are booked and then she says to me "you probably should have called me back or texted." Really? That's the response?

It became my issue that I was waiting to hear back even though I was told I would get a call back and was patiently waiting? I don't think that's very sound business practice and really too bad because we wanted a massage and could have booked elsewhere but I was waiting to hear from her. Guess if you're reading this you shouldn't expect a call back if you're told you'll get one.

Unfortunately this review does not pertain to a service as I was unable to even book one because of the way the receptionist handled my call. I called and asked for a couples massage for the next day and she responded with a pretentious attitude saying "we're fully booked" then immediately hung up before I even had the chance to ask about other available times later this week.

I was mid sentence asking about other available times when I was hung up on. This is not the right way to deal with a customer trying to book a service with you. I was mid sentence asking about other available times when I was hung up on. I've never been turned away from booking a massage this quickly. Watch out for the bad attitude of the receptionist here at Carmel massage

This place is NOT a place you go to if you want the spa feeling but if all you want is a good massage for a great price this is a great place to go. I was spending the day with my mom and decided we could both use a massage. They were sweet, nice and worth it

After seeing all of the great reviews I had to check this place out so my boyfriend and I went for our two year anniversary. I have never had a massage and Noel was amazing! She would pinpoint spots where I had no clue that I was tense in my body. The woman who worked on my boyfriend was amazing and worked out the tight spots that he's been having in his back and they also gave us tips on how to stretch the spots that we were tight in. I will definitely be coming back here! I feel so relaxed and can't wait to enjoy the rest of my weekend out here in Carmel / Monterey!

I must say that they are the best, hands down! I was there for a couples massage (deep tissue 90min) They're welcoming and quite funny also. If you have a specific area that needs attention they will focus on that area and work out the tension without neglecting the rest of your body. Noel will also give you tips on how to maintain that area. I will definitely be back.

Lisa was great for a flow style relaxation massage if you like light pressure. This place is at someone's house but they give you directions that are very detailed. They can only take two people at a time in the same room. Awesome massage! Loved the oils.

Amazing massages here, all the therapists are great. My husband and I always do a couples massage and dream of coming back to this gem in Carmel. Also being super safe with Covid which I appreciate as someone who is immune compromised.

Noel was absolutely amazing! Such a wonderful experience, and great deep tissue massage. I will recommend her to all of my friends/ family and coworkers! She really worked out all of my aches and pains while being pregnant. She is easy to talk to, and very professional! Thanks again Noel!

Awesome massage! My boyfriend and I went for a couples massage. Noel and Brittany were both fantastic. We left feeling great and like each of our massage therapists were really able to read and understand our bodies. Brittany found some spots I didn't know were tense and they both sent us home with some stretches to help long term. Can't say enough positive things about both of them!

I had an amazing massage from Robin. The space is so beautiful and peaceful. The owner was very easy to communicate with, everything was clean and comfortable. Great prices. I highly recommend!

We just had the most amazing, the most healing, best massages of our lives. My partner and I are spending the day in Carmel and knew we needed to make the best of it to truly unplug and heal our bodies after months of seemingly neverending work. We called Noel to book a same day appt and she was very kind to squeeze us in. We booked the couples massage ($110/person + 20% gratuity) and met with Noel and Robin.

They listened to our bodies and asked us questions that helped them help our bodies recover. It was unlike any massage appts I have had before because it wasn't a stiff routine, they took their time and they allowed us to experience deep relaxation and healing that can only come from people who care. Thanks so much, Noel and Robin! We look forward to returning :)

My husband managed to find Noel, my masseuse when we lived here before. He booked a massage for me as a wonderful birthday present. I enjoyed reconnecting with my dear friend, and she managed to find many of the knots in my body caused by all of the stresses of our move. Noel is a wonderful masseuse, and I swear my body remembers her touch. She now practices in a lovely cabin near Carmel, Ca. The lovely setting and the view contribute to relaxation and enhance your massage.

Epic massage. I am picky. Very, very particular, especially when it comes to bodywork. The affects this massage had the next day were positively phenomenal. Highly recommended! I've been taking walks on the beach and doing other things I haven't done in months. Feeling fab. Go get a killer massage and feel good.

Absolutely fantastic experience. I specified what I wanted in a massage and Michelle went above and beyond. I'm an athlete so she focused her deep tissue techniques on all the key spots where my muscles were right. She and Noel are incredibly knowledgeable about the body and the muscles/joints. I went with my boyfriend for the couples massage and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. My boyfriend said he felt like he was in Vienna because of the great atmosphere and music. Highly recommended!

I have a very physical job and I need a deep tissue healing massage which is what I get from Noelle at Carmel Massage. The setting is so beautiful, peaceful and private. I always feel like I get a personalized massage that works on the many tight muscles that being a hairstylist leave me with. I leave feeling like I can heal myself because she is so willing to give me ideas on how to stretch and move so I don't keep repeating the same old patterns. I highly recommend becoming a regular client of Carmel Massage. You won't be sorry.

Have had many massages with Noelle. She is awesome. I like a person that can give a very deep massage, and a lot of people are too light for my taste. Noelle gets right into those tight muscles. I have noticed a major difference in how my body has strengthened, especially when I exercise.
