Dreamclinic Massage

WOW! I came in for an acupuncture session with Timothy last week, and it was absolutely amazing. I am actually very terrified of needles but thought I'd give it a chance. I am SO glad I did! Tim was incredibly soothing and talked me through the entire session. There was not a single point where I felt any discomfort or pain. He let me know what he was doing and consistently checked on how I was doing with each needle. When he put the first needle in my knee, I didn't feel the needle itself, but the lower half of my leg had this wonderful tingly sensation (almost tickly but better) and it felt heavy and warm. From there, it just kept getting better and better. He used this thing called a moxy (spelling?) stick which looks like a fat black cigar with a burning ember on the end, and it just made my knee feel like it was radiating warmth. He also worked in a little bit of massage and some cupping (by the way, cupping is the coolest feeling I have ever had).

Overall, the experience was absolutely the best. I walked out to my car feeling like skipping or jumping! I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for some pain relief or hoping to de-stress.

Pros: Really gentle, soothing, relaxing, and inexpensive!

Cons: None!

nicole delivered a spectacular full body massage with attention to my wrist and forearm repetitive motion injury / computer use/. she applied confident strokes with pressure that i liked. i loved the heat that my body generated through the session. i told her she moved through the muscles like "thunder", with the right pressure, speed. towards the end i liked the slowing down faze when i got to truly absorb all the initial work on the "stuck" passages. nicole uses eye pillow that is so calming and soothing. very simple but so effective in "zoning out". music was right as well. what can i say, when in dream clinic, do ask for nicole! she is my massage therapist from now on! anita.

Pros: delivered with knowledge, skill and intuition.

I came to Dreamclinic because a guy in my office said if I went there they would get rid of the pain in my shoulder/neck. I took the advice and... wow! The woman that gave me the massage was so nice and before she massaged me she found out exactly where I was hurting. Then she went to work! WOW. Layer after layer of my tight muscles seemed to melt. After the massage I didn't have any more pain! I couldn't believe it since my shoulder had been hurting for weeks. She also recommended some stretches for my problem shoulder. Everyone was so nice from beginning to end. As a bonus there's a lot of cool shops and restaurants within walking distance..

Pros: great massage, nice people, affordable

Cons: That there is a isn't one on the Eastside.

I had never had a massage before so I was pretty excited when my bf offered to book one for us. He had been to the Dreamclinic many times before so he suggested we go there together.

I was asked to come in ten minutes before my appointment to fill out paperwork. I didn't think that the questions that I was asked were terribly beneficial. Off the bat, I am disappointed that it wasn't a couples massage. But that is my bf's problem as he didn't explain things very well. He was whisked away before I was.

My biggest issue is that I should have been asked if I preferred a male or female practitioner. I had a male practitioner while my significant other had a female one. I was incredibly uncomfortable. I didn't know what to expect. I felt that this had all become so routine to whoever worked there that they forgot that this is a new experience for some people. I would have liked to know where I was going to be touched next. I felt incredibly anxious on that table. I even cried. There was nothing relaxing about it.

I had an anxiety attack in the car on the way home, and I broke two days after and had to see a doctor.

I don't think that I will be going back there. I am a little traumatized. I was really excited to have my first massage but I was disappointed. My bf said that we could try again somewhere else.

Pros: My bf's shoulder felt better afterward

Cons: I didn't know what was going on, it wasn't explained to me

I am a fan of Dreamclinic. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They recently renovated their site to include more services, which I think is awesome. They also have some therapists who accept insurance, which really helps me out since I incur sports injuries and require multiple visits in a short period of time. I have been a client of Dreamclinic for 3+ years.

Pros: knowledgeable and friendly staff

Cons: parking

Whenever you walk into Dreamclinic you're walking into a world of relaxation right from the start. As you ascend their stairs to the front desk you're greeted with colorful, yet calming images, and a pleasant and helpful staff. With each step you take you find yourself leaving the stresses of the day behind. I love coming to Dreamclinic for this very reason. This was my 3rd massage that I've received from them and each experience has been wonderfully different. I previously came in for a 60-minute and 90-minute massage, but this time I scheduled only a 30-minute. I was concerned that this wouldn't be the most fulfilling experience since it typically takes me a 1/2 hour just to unwind and feel the benefits of the massage, but considering the fact that the relaxation starts from the moment you walk in the door, I felt like I was still getting value for every bit of time I was there. I met with a therapist named Amalia who had a great energy about her right from the start. She was very attentive and thorough in her initial evaluation and made me feel like I would be in good hands once the massage began. I liked the way she got right to the problem areas and was thankful that she did the best she could for my aching body despite the time constraints. I could tell that she put alot of energy into the areas that were of greater concern and appreciated that. Although I easily could have gone for another hour or more with her healing hands, I was very grateful for how positive the experience was, and as always, promise myself to incorporate more massage into my life after seeing how much even a 1/2 hour can make a difference. I can't wait for my next massage experience at Dreamclinic and certainly hope to visit Amalia again since I liked her positive energy and attentive techniques. Thank you Dreamclinic! :)

I first started going to Dreamclinic last year, and had never had a professional massage. Despite that, I was totally wowed with the great experience I had there. Back then it was a little bit "hole in the wall" in a pretty ugly building with a consignment shop taking up the downstairs (not by their management or anything) and I was not sure what to expect, but my massage with Michele was incredible and she really put me at ease. Since then I've tried some other places for massage... chains like Massage Envy and Inspa and they are AWFUL in comparison. Maybe not even just in comparison, I think they are awful period. At Dreamclinic, the people actually seem like the WANT to be working there, and one of the therapists said they treat them really well which is something I care about. Anyway fast forward to Dreamclinic now, and it is no longer some hole in the wall, they had a great renovation this summer. I hear they will open the downstairs which they now own, soon and keep the reception desk down there. Can't wait! Quick listing of my fav's at the clinic: Michele, Drew, Haakon, Molly and Esther. They are so great. Carlie too, but its pretty hard to get in with her.

Pros: Great Therapists, friendy desk staff

Cons: what? no.

Posted 01/07/09

I have been here a number of times and this is becoming my favorite place I go to Olympus Spa sometimes when I really want to lounge in their heat rooms but I go to Dreamclinic when I need a GOOD massage. They will ask you what you want ? for me it?s always neck and shoulders ? and then that?s what you get!! I am getting hooked.

Pros: Good Staff, Good Vbe, Decent Pricing

Cons: None

On Dec. 13th I got a massage at the D.C. from "Barbara." It was a gift from my boyfriend & we went together. She was new- they were showing her around while I was in the waiting room. I told her I'd like a deep tissue massage & that I have relatively good pain tolerance. During, she only once asked me how the pressure was. I told her it was fine, but the pressure got stronger. She worked on the back of my head and neck for a long time & the pressure was uncomfortable. I felt like she was kneading bread dough, and there are really very few and very tiny muscles back there. She was pushing so hard that my forehead kept hitting the metal bar that was beneath the face pad. I kept readjusting it but she never asked why or if I was ok. I guess I felt like she was a professional and knew what was good for me, so I didn't speak up. After the massage I felt relaxed, but dizzy. My bf and I (he wasn't crazy about his massage either) left to get ready for a holiday party. Within a few hours I was completely incapacitated by a terrible migraine headache. My father, an acupuncturist, was luckily on hand to treat me for it, but I missed the party and slept all night. Next morning I could barely move & he treated me again. I missed 3 days of work before I called the D.C. to let them know what had happened. The areas she had worked so hard on were completely locked up. I spoke with "Meghan," who met with her therapists and got back to me the next day, saying that most likely something had "been released" during the massage and recommended I see a doctor. So I went to Dr. who luckily was able to offer some relief, though it was a few more days before I was even close to normal again. Since then they won't return my calls & clearly don't care about my well-being. I still have pain in my neck when I sleep on my right side & no sympathy or sense of responsibility from the owner, Larisa who's supposedly going to call me back someday. I still have heard nothing. Healers? No.

Pros: My bf's gift of a massage was totally negated by my ensuing injury.

Cons: Absolutely no help from the management when I was obviously hurt and in need.

I just recently came through a major surgery, and didn't realize that I had issues happening with my muscles and joints that were causing major headaches...until I met Mollie at Dreamclinic. She knows how to tailor a massage to a client's situation unlike any other therapist I've visited; and there's been a lot of 'em throughout the years. It was unbelievably phenomenal how she listened so attentively, gathering the information that I was giving her to plan a strategy for the massage treatment. The therapy totally addressed the issues I was having, and I have at least two more visits on the books with Mollie; she is tremendously talented in the massage field. The clinic is very professional, comfortable and pampering all at once. It's hard to find a place like this anywhere. I highly recommend this place to anyone, and I would definitely book with Mollie if you want to get tailored therapy to address your joint/muscle/pain issues well.

Pros: Parking, Chocolates at the Front Desk!, Skill in Massage, Great Massage Rooms, Great Pricing!

Cons: None

Faced with a recent back injury I went to Dreamclinic to help clear things up. I've found Esther Utley to be just outstanding. She didn't simply give a great massage, but really assessed what issues I might have that I wasn't even aware of and has methodically and cheerfully addressed all of my issues. She's very good at what she does and is also sensitive and a great listener even when I can't quite articulate what the problem is. I've also found the Dreamclinic staff to be consistently professional and very attuned to customer service at all levels.

Pros: great massage, great customer service

Cons: parking can be tricky at the wrong time of day

Posted 06/19/08

I have been going to Dream Clinic for a while now and give it a top rating. I highly recommend Brian Eckerling who is a truly amazing therapist and the best I have seen in years! Brian is particularly adept at combining different massage techniques that specifically target chronic pain and tension areas (for me the neck) but also provide deep overall relaxation and an improved flow of energy. I feel 10 pounds lighter and revitalized after every session. The staff is also very friendly and professional.

Pros: Great massage/friendly service

Cons: n/a

Posted 06/18/08

Melissa Holm at Dream Clinic gives the best deep tissue massage I've ever had - and I've had many!! I'm so relaxed when I'm getting a massage from her that I usually wake myself up snoring a few times during the session. I'm in sales I have a lot of muscle tension and a horrible lower back but when I walk out off the Dream Clinic I feel ten years younger! Based on Melissa, all of the other friendly staff members and easy parking . . . . I give Dream Clinic FIVE gold stars! ~Juliet Tigner

Posted 06/06/08

As a new massage therapist, I have been through countless interviews. It can be overwhelming to be put on the spot on a regular basis, but my interview with Charles at Dreamclinic was relaxed and surprisingly fun. It helped reset my mood for the day and reminded me why I got into this business.

If you're looking for a comfortable work setting with friendly and energetic coworkers, check out Dreamclinic!

Pros: Energetic staff, nice environment

Posted 06/05/08

You know you are receiving a great massage when you dont wish to give out the name of your masseuse for fear that this person will get to busy that they cant service your needs (like giving out your babysitters or top hair stylists name).

Not only do they have competent people at the front desk, but their waiting area is warm and welcoming. My daughter has been going in after being in a car accident. She was talking about the wonderful staff at Dreamclinic- how many were MBAs who went back for training in massage therapy to 'do good' in the world. They definitely made an impact- how often do you hear a teenager speak so positively about a company without provocation?!

They truly take the time to give you tools to ease your pain to become more healthy. Whether it be sports injury, car accident, or intense stressful life issues.. they aid with being available 7 days a week to ease the tension in your body reducing the stress in your mind. Dreamclinic has come very far in such a small time.. now expanding to take over the entire building with thoughts of expanding past this location. Simply amazing- and things that dreams are made of... (relief of pain in a healthy way- always excellent).

Seriously- I have been to Canyon Ranch Tucson several times.. and am beyond delighted to have found this location on my back doorstep in Seattle's Greenlake area. The owner is always reviewing what new products and techniques to bring into the mix. But truly she has found an excellent mix of support staff/therapists who are simply amazing. We only have one body and are given this moment in time to do the best we can. Sempor Excelisior! With the aid of Dreamclinic i think I may be able to go back to running and half marathons again. smiles.. enjoy!

Pros: Excellent staff with top therapists

Cons: have to walk up flight of stairs, or perhaps alongside building to enter off parking side

Posted 06/01/08

I love to go to Dreamclinic, I love massage even more and Esther is definitely one of my favorite people now for taking care of all of my sports injuries. Everyone here is so attentive and caring, they actually take time to talk to you about your posture and give you the tools to make it better and their front desk is so friendly and will help you with whatever questions you have -no snotty answers! Thanks guys, keep up the good work!

Pros: Massuers are therepeutic and knowledgable

Cons: can't think of any, totally happy

Posted 05/30/08

Their treatment massages are excellent and beside getting a great massage, the customer service was awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Pros: All the therapist are excellent!

Posted 05/05/08

My last massage with Melissa was very relaxing and helped to alleviate various sports injuries that I have had of late. I always know that when I have a massage from Melissa it will have lasting therapeutic effects and not just feel relaxing at the time. I will certainly continue to go to Dreamclinic.

Posted 03/03/08

Grrrrr... I just wrote a long review and Citysearch ATE IT! SIGH. OK, let's see if I can remember it. My buds at Dreamclinic are worth it. :-)

I came to Dreamclinic initially because I got a gift certificate. I like massage therapy for general wellness reasons, I just feel better overall after I get a massage. I finally used my GC just before it expired in November '07. I wish I had used it earlier, I would have become a repeat customer sooner, and enjoyed the benefits longer. Oh well. No better time than the present.

I've seen two therapists at Dreamclinic: Esther and Natasha. I've now fallen into somewhat of a routine, where I go to Esther for hot stone therapy and Natasha for deep tissue therapy, once a month each. It's really been great. Having recently started a training program, I'm finding that the treatments are really helpful with muscle soreness and tightness. On one particular day, my quads were so sore I could barely walk up the stairs into the clinic. The next morning (after Esther's treatment) the soreness was gone. Not BETTER, but GONE. Awesome. Natasha's deep tissue treatment is focused and intense (in a good way). I'm usually feeling it for several days afterwards. Both Natasha and Esther are open and friendly, and very knowledgeable and conscientious. And they both have Magic Soreness Radar: they find and work the "trouble spots" with sometimes scary accuracy.

I'm sure everyone on staff at Dreamclinic is great, and I'm sure there's no way to go wrong no matter who you see. I'm a creature of habit, though, so I'll be sticking with what's been working for me. :-)

Pros: Great staff, vibe

Posted 02/08/08

I have been getting deep tissue massage at this clinic for a few months now, and have a great experience every time I go. I look forward to each and every session. My massage therapist, Carlie, has been absolutely fantastic. She is able to target my most stressed muscles, and works very diligently and aggressively at releasing the tension. Carlie is very sweet, highly knowledgeable and truly genuine. Every employee at the DreamClinic has been very kind since the first day I was there. This is a place that I have and will continue to recommend.
Thank you Carlie, and the staff at the DreamClinic !

Posted 02/08/08

Nice quiet spa, good service, friendly staff, convenient to get to, however, the massages (deep tissue) are inconsistent. Some of the good ones are no longer there (Regan, etc). If you go in without booking someone you know, it can be great or it can be terrible.

Pros: Service, location, easy parking

Cons: inconsistent level of service from the different therapists

Posted 01/23/08

I had a great massage w/ Esther. I came in with terrible back pain, and she worked wonders. My previous visit to Dreamclinic was great too.

Posted 01/20/08

I got a great massage from Carlie at the Dreamclinic. I am a cyclist and have particular trouble with sore hips and tight IT bands. She foucused in on the trouble spots and was able to effectively relieve the tight areas. I felt so much better that I recommended her to my husband who was having the same difficulties. He was just as impressed as me. Having a good massage is a must for any competitive athlete.

She also worked on my tight neck and shoulders from using the computer too much. It's a great way to get rid of tension.

I found the staff to be pleasant and very helpfull as well. The internet reminders are a great convienence.

Posted 01/20/08

Professional staff, but the place itself is loud (you can hear the traffic from the street). I paid around $80 for the massage but it had no effect. Overall, ambivalent about the whole experience.

Pros: staff is good

Cons: loud

Posted 01/17/08

For the past 1.5 years or so I have been going to Dreamclinic for my occasional "maintenance massage" and I can honestly say that I have not yet had one bad massage there. I have had the pleasure to get a massage from at least 7 of the ? therapists there. Whereas each of them has their unique style, the quality is consistent without a doubt. Chris does great myofascial work; Melissa's got a faster speed and sports massage style, very much like Carlie; Pine and Amalia are stronger than one would think; I like to refer to Nicole as Nicky Neckapecka because she gets right into my neck each and every time; and Natasha is currently my favorite - deep, slow strokes that nourish your body, mind and soul, and send you into trance. Another common denominator is that the therapists really seem to be dedicated to their work.

Pros: quality massage, dedicated therapists, friendly and helpful staff

Cons: traffic outside can be noisy

Posted 01/08/08

I found the Dreamclinic online when I was looking for a medical massage. The "meet the Dreamclinic staff" page on the website helped me select a massage therapist who I felt was suited to my specific needs and off I went. I started seeing Nicole in April 07' and haven't had a headache since. The thing I really appreciate about Nicole is that she incorporates different styles of massage into my sessions. My favorite is when I get a deep tissue massage then craniosacral or reiki for the remaining 30 mins. It's the best mind and body therapy. Even after my insurance deductible ran out for the year I still see Nicole every 2 to 4 weeks for what I like to call "maintenance". Chris is also a great therapist especially for myofascial work.

The staff is always friendly and greets me with a smile. They are more than willing to help with anything from insurance questions or issues (I know this from experience) to people like me who lose things like gift certificates (thank goodness they keep good records and keep gift certificates on file). I have nothing but praise for the Dreamclinic staff, especially Nicole, just ask all my friends and anyone who mentions they need a massage ;-)

Posted 01/08/08

I know that dreamclinic has been served with great ratings, but I had a less than great experience with them before I could even get in for a massage. The staff that works at the dreamclinic is HIGHLY unorganized, and they don't seem to know left from right in their establishment. I have a medical massage case, and I contacted them to see if they accepted my insurance, before making an appointment. It took THREE months to get a yes or no answer from them. Kristina, the receptionist, told me that I would be contacted with an answer, I was never contacted once, I had to keep contacting them. Finally, I got Meghan on the phone who explained that they didn't accept my insurance. That is fine, but I can't believe I waited so long for an answer that could have been taken care of in one day, not three months! The dreamclinic provided the worst customer service I have ever experienced. Needless to say, I am glad to take my business elsewhere, and these people either need to hire more help, or they clearly need to get their heads out of their asses!

Pros: Offers massage covered by some insurance companies

Cons: Less than competant staff

Posted 12/31/07

I was recommended by my doctor to Dream Clinic after a car accident early this year since nothing has worked with the back pain I was experiencing. I was skeptical at first until I went for my first session with Ashley and saw results immediatley. I also found all the staff specially Ashley very knowledgeable with all the body parts and what needs to be done to relieve pain.
I feel that when a doctors recommends a patient to Dream Clinic, that is saying alot about the staff!
Having tried a lot of massage therapists over the years I found that Dream Clinic has been the best with their knowledgeable staff.

Pros: knowledgeable staff

Cons: tough on parking but worth it!!!

Posted 06/10/07

I recently moved here from Boston and found Dreamclinic through a Google search. I simply typed Jedi Master into the Google and found Melissa Holm at Dreamclinic. There are no words in the English language that can describe the incredible feeling she brought to my body, although I did find myself saying ?Gees Louise, Holy Moly, and Jeepers Crow? a lot. You can feel that good hurt in your muscles for days after. I can only explain it this way, so bare with me and you?ll understand. I once saw a concert entitled ?An Evening with David Byrne? (lead singer for ?The Talking Heads?), it was just David sitting on a bar stool on the middle of the stage with a microphone. There was track music coming through the speakers and David was singing away to the music. After 45 minutes...yes 45 minutes, a man playing a trumpet came from stage left doing a tribal like dance and blasting away with his trumpet. David didn?t even acknowledge him and continued to sing as the trumpet player danced around him. The whole audience was completely blown away and gazed at the stage in complete amazement?who was this trumpet player, was he playing the whole time behind the stage? Another 45 minutes later the curtain to the stage opened and to everyone?s amazement there was a complete brass band that went from left to right, they were playing behind the curtain the whole time. David Byrne had the whole audience completely hypnotized and wrapped around his finger, it was completely unexpected and completely genius. He took the whole audience on a journey that was beyond words. Melissa Holm will take you on a journey that is equal to this, and from the first minutes of your journey to the last it just keeps getting better and better! I am counting down the days until my next massage by the Jedi Master Melissa Holm!

Just had a massage with Asya - it was wonderful. Deep pressure, intuitive, and not too "technique-y," which is a problem I've found with a lot of therapists -- they want to showcase all their extra training and lose touch with the client. Also, there was a mix-up with one of my appts, and they offered me 30 extra minutes on my next one to make up for it. Classy touch -- a lot of other businesses could really learn from Dreamclinic.

Posted 04/10/07

I highly recommend the Dreamclinic. The atmosphere is relaxing and the staff is professional. I was referred to Nicole and can't wait for my massage! Highly Recommended!!

Posted 03/20/07

Dreamclinic is a wonderful place for a massage, whether you are looking for relaxation or to treat some kind of pain. I've seen them for both and been very satisfied. After seeing 4 different massage therapists, my personal faves are Chris and Pine. Both of them are incredibly patient, kind, and talented massage therapists. Chris is wonderful for deep fascia (sp?) work and has great exercises and suggestions to help stretch tight muscles.

Pros: great staff, well trained and highly sensitive massage therapists

Cons: noise from 65th distracting, cumbersome parking

Posted 01/30/07

I just had the best 90 minute massage from a gal named Asya recently. Out of all the places I have been to for a quality massage, this has definitely been the best experience. The atmosphere was calm and relaxed, the front desk personnel were very attentive, and free tea and water is offered in the waiting area. They were also able to accomodate my last minute request to be seen.

Asya was great at asking questions and really listening to my needs. She did an awesome job and I have already recommended her to my friends and family. She was terrific! Thank you Asya!

Pros: location, service, hours, people

Cons: parking

Posted 11/20/06

I got the best massage today that I have ever had. I had a masseuse named Asya and she had a fantastically intuitive touch with incredible strength. I have received several massages in the past and this was the best by far. Not only that but they got me in at the last minute and were incredibly accomodating and friendly.

Posted 11/07/06

I have been feeling totally stressed out from my training schedule and just life stress in general, so I decided it was a good idea to buy myself a massage! I'd heard great things about Dreamclinic, so I figured I would give them a shot.

Results: AWESOME! I couldn't have picked a better place. It was so peaceful inside-- nice music, hot tea (nice with the sudden chill in the air)... My therapist (her name is Joelle-- DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED!) was so kind and attentive. She is strong and was more than willing to change up her style if I wanted.

Overall, Dreamclinic and Joelle treated me like royalty. Give them a try-- There couldn't be a better place for massage in Seattle!

Pros: Ambience, Service, Tea and Water

Cons: Busy street, Sometimes Parking

Posted 10/31/06

Great massage, relaxing atmosphere, friendly and professional staff with diverse backgrounds and massage approaches. Highly recommended.

Posted 10/02/06

I just finished an hour with Chris and feel better than I have in months. I was long overdo for a great massage. I found my first experience at Dreamclinic to be very low-key and relaxing. Just what I needed. Chris asked me questions about what I wanted from a massage and if I had any trouble spots to pay special attention to. My neck and shoulders had been aching for weeks from job stress and moving. They're no longer aching and I can sense I'm breathing much deeper in my new relaxed state. And as an added bonus I find the oil that was used to be very pleasant. The oil left my skin feeling very soft. I definitely hope to get back to clinic again.

Posted 09/27/06

I've had three massages over the past few months with Chris. He's a great massage therapist. He's very knowledgeable of pressure points and attentive to your needs. I highly recommend Chris- he's great!

Pros: great massage

Cons: some traffic noise

Posted 09/24/06

I read all the reviews and decided that I must find out for myself because reviews are limited to the perception of each individual taste. The appointment was made easily by phone, I got there early. The Therapist was courteous and asked me questions before hand so that they could pinpoint what I needed. The room was cozy, with really good music. The massage was great, it's like she knew where I wanted her to massage me next. I'm usually very shy about another person touching me at all, but she made me feel at ease. I was shocked that even though I paid for an hour massage, I got more than an hour. That was a few days ago and I feel wonderful and yes Dream Clinic, "I will be Back and with my friends!"

Pros: Knowledgable Therapists, Good Atmosphere, Very Affordable

Cons: Parking is a little Difficult but well worth it.

Posted 08/15/06

i've been looking for the perfect massage in seattle, and i was hoping dreamclinic was going to be "the place" after reading all these reviews. I was really excited when going in.. but Honestly, i think this was the first massage i didn't enjoy, i wanted it to end quickly! i'm glad i didnt ask for the 90 minute massage..don't let these reviews fool you.. cuz personally i was extremely disappointed. (sorry dreamclinic). im not going to be too negative, and im going to say that the woman at the front desk was EXTREMELY FRIENDLY, and the massage therapist was also friendly. probably the most friendly staff at a spa i've been to. Friendly staff, but bad massage.

Pros: FRIENDLY STAFF!!, free parking

Cons: bad massage

Posted 08/10/06

After many massages there, thoroughly impressed with the quality of staff, and they are great about remembering who you've worked with in the past and how to work on the areas you needed help with at previous visits. Think Joelle is stellar for massages - asked good questions, respectful, and terrific results.

Posted 08/03/06

I usually get a massage once or twice a year and feel slightly disappointed after a mediocre session. I was downtown getting a salon treatment and mentioned that it was time for my bi-annual massage splurge. The salon employee recommended Dreamclinic to me, stressing that they make extra efforts to personalize and specialize your treatment to what you want. When I went in, Chris and I discussed what my concerns and expectations were...though basically I was just there to treat myself. Not only did he focus on areas I specified, he was very attentive to my comfort level, down to the music that was playing. Also, I've never been that crazy about the leg and foot portion of a full-body massage, but I've changed my mind after this experience. I left feeling fantastic. Rejuvenated and less tense, rather than drained and confused (as I've felt with other places). He even gave me a list of different stretches that I can do at work and after workouts as I was leaving. Also, the price was reasonable, especially compared to spas I've gone to in the past.

Pros: Personalized, atmosphere, service

Posted 07/30/06

I walked into the place feeling stressed, rushed, and with a killer tension headache up the back of my neck that I'd had for 2 weeks and walked out feeling light. My headache was gone and hasn't come back for a week! I don't usually expect a massage to fix things that are broken (they usually just feel nice), but my 30 minutes with Charles was well worth it. I'll be back!

Pros: Same day appointments, good prices, and great spa fragrance

Cons: A bit of traffic noise from 65th and parking is back was a tight maneuver

Having spent some years in Asia --where I became a bit of a Spa junkie-- I am thrilled to have Dreamclinic to continue my regular massages, to prevent and treat sports injuries and keep my overall energy balanced and reduce stress from work and travel clogging up in neck, shoulders and back.

Efficienly set-up without additional rifraf or overly-sculped interiors, you arrive at Dreamclinic and are swiftly led to one of the rooms where you get down to business after going through your record/profile and preferences for that session.
The therapists are truly outstanding, all of them with one or multiple specialisms, and all of them courtious, sensitive and very professional. I've had hundreds of massages in my life, but this crew never ceases to amaze me. The quality is consistent, and they really listen to your requests and your body.

In short - for whatever reason you want or need a massage, Dreamclinic does the job ... very well. Check them out, and judge for yourself.

Pros: Professionalism and range of specialist massage techniques

Cons: Not a real 'spa atmosphere'

I came to the dream clinic expecting something really great. After all, I have been getting massages for forever, and a lot of them too. And the reviews were excellent. I think I got a massage from a guy that was straight out of school. I couldn't get enough pressure no matter how many times I asked. The place did not feel very relaxing, it was very high energy. I would not recomend this place.

Pros: parking

Cons: skill, ambience

The dreamclinic offers an amazing massage experience. Recommended by friends, I knew I had found a winner from the moment my phone call was answered. The staff is adept at making you feel totally at ease and in capable hands. Asya, my massage therapist, gave me the most intrinsic deep tissue massage I have ever experienced. She was acutely perceptive to my particular muscle aches and this knowledge allowed her to use just the right technique and pressure. It was a truly restorative experience that I plan on experiencing on a regular basis. I would recommend the dreamclinic and particularly Asya to anyone who wants to feel what a GREAT massage can do to a body. You will never want to wake up from this dream!

Pros: Amazing staff, Relaxing environment

I have chronic, severe migraines and yesterday I went for a 90-minute massage with Ben. I get massages at least once a month as therapy--and I have to say, it was incredible. Technique was perfect and he was just lovely. The staff was courteous and they managed to squeeze me in an appointment on the day I first called--over all, an extraordinary place that will now be my regular business.

Pros: Best Massage, Excellent staff, Availability

Cons: Not really any, well, it's not cheap
