Devin really customized my massage to the tension she could feel in the problem areas of my shoulders and back. Really powerful massage that helped me with my chronic headaches and brought me relief from a three-day migraine.

The Swedish massage that I received was excellent! I’ve had several massages in the past and this massage was wonderful and left me feeling refreshed. My only negatives are that it was a bit hard to find at first glance. A larger sign on the door might help with this. Additionally, the music that was playing louder throughout the spa than I’m accustomed to. A bit of a surprise but once the massage started, I began to relax and forgot about it.

I loved the service even though I was expecting a actual bath that wasn’t what I received. But what I received was still extremely nice. The lobby in the front needs a lot of work and the entrance should have a sign with the DDBALANCE on it because we had to assume where the business was. Overall, it was a nice experience and I would definitely come back and refer my friends.

Luther was a nice guy and massage was good. But he was distracted during the session leaving the room multiple times and started late and ended early, so I probably only received a 40 minute massage.

I hated the fact that I drove 40 mins out for my massage, and when I got there they told me that they had no openings. I was confused because why put the opening online if the therapist is not available. Then they told me that they tried to contact me all week to reschedule but the only missed call I got was the day before my appointment. Then when I rescheduled the woman at the desk did not confirm the appointment foe the later time. So when I came back later that evening the therapist wasn't aware that he had another client but took care of me anyway. The massage was great. The costumer service was terrible.

Luther was amazing (see below). The only thing I was annoyed by is that Groupon falsely advertises that the regular price of two, one-hour massages would be more than $200 so two for $80 is an insane deal, more than 60% off. When I asked at the spa, they said the normal price was $60 per hour. So you’re really only saving about $40 on two massages, which is fine. It would just be nice for it to be accurate. It felt very misleading. I’ll come back because Luther was amazing, just bothered me that Groupon is still advertising that two, hour-long massages would cost more than $200 without the Groupon.

Absolutely atrocious. I was refused a massage because I'm in my second trimester of pregnancy and was told they ONLY give prenatal massage in the third trimester. It does not say that ANYWHERE on their website or when booking the massage and this is by no means standard practice - first and second trimester massages are commonly done. Completely unprofessional.
Business response:
Hi, thank you so much for writing a review. It is unfortunate your experience was not great. Unfortunately, we don't offer Groupon Prenatal Massage as a deal only Swedish and Deep Tissue Massage. For the expecting mothers safety, we do not offer prenatal massage prior to the third trimester. Please reach out to me directly at contact@ddbalance.com if you need any help further in rectifying this.

I was really looking forward to visiting since its so close to my house and would love to have a regular local place to go to, rather than going to Alexandria for my monthly massage. The layout was nice and I thought everyone was very friendly. I was even more pleased that it appeared to be owned and run by women of color.
I didn't really think changing into the robe was useful, but it's not a deal breaker for me. I also thought it was odd that the wall did not go all the way up, and I was able to hear everything going on next door (which was a bit confusing at first because I couldn't tell if the noise was from the other room or whether the therapist had entered the room), but that also isn't a deal breaker for me. However, the massage itself was not satisfactory.
