GetBalanced Massage Therapy — Local services in Fort Lauderdale

Not typically one to leave a bad review but I feel it’s necessary for the situation. After reading many positive reviews, I booked a deep tissue massage with James for what I thought would be held at the noted plantation facility that is listed on his site and in the reviews. The entire thing seemed normal when I filled out the client intake form until I was texted a different address the day before my appt. while this isn’t necessarily a problem, it is what comes after that made me highly uncomfortable. The address I was told to go to was a private residence that seemed to be James’s apartment. This address is nowhere listed on his site or anywhere on google to be found or warned. This type of information should be fully disclosed when you’re a young 25 year old female getting a massage from someone you’ve never been acquainted with before. It would be different if I would’ve booked a mobile session in my own residence but that was nowhere near the case. I thought the “dania location” was a second facility where I wouldn’t be entering a strangers private residence. It wasn’t until I stepped foot into his actual apartment that I explained my discomfort and asked for a refund. He informed me that he doesn’t do refunds and I left abruptly following that comment. While I’m sure James is a ‘reputable’ masseuse, given the circumstances he should’ve done the right thing and not pocket my fully paid $159 when I didn’t receive any services and left completely uncomfortable about the...

If you have the opportunity to make an appointment with Massage Fort Lauderdale, do it! From the moment you make the appointment the service is exceptional. The staff was very flexible in accommodating my schedule. They even offer mobile services for your convenience. I went to the office. My experience began when my therapist, Acce, greeted me in the lobby. He set the expectation from the moment he greeted me, reminding me that deep breathing would be the best way for me to contribute to my massage! The office is cozy and the ambiance is perfectly set to relax your mind and body. We discussed my concerns briefly and my expert was clearly versed in several massage styles that we customized for my personal best impact. My expert was very educated and intuitive. Every detail of my experience seemed to have been intentionally considered; aroma, ambiance, engagement, medical conditions, sounds, pressure, etc! I will most certainly be back during my next visit. Hurry up and make your appointment, trust me,...

I have had 4 session in total with James (and have more pre-paid) and it has been extraordinarily positive for both my body and mind. I partially tore my labrum in high school and my right shoulder has never quite felt the same since. However, after this last session my shoulder joint finally felt natural in a way that is difficult to describe - It blew my mind and am genuinely grateful. I’ve had at least 10 different massage therapist over the years at different locations and can confidently say James is the most skillful therapist that I have worked with. Each session is different in terms of technique or focus depending on what he sees and feels in your physiology and it’s made for a great quality of life improvement for me. Without a doubt in my mind I would easily recommend this place to anyone and everyone. The prices are more than reasonable and the value you get is worth substantially more than you pay. Easy...
