I stopped by Unwind Wellness Center when I was visiting and it was incredible. I had the 90 minute signature massage with Paolo. I've had plenty of massages and this was one of the good ones. I'd recommend to anyone who is looking for a great massage. More...

I had a wonderful experience with Magnolia this past Sunday. She was extremely kind, she asked me what I was looking for, and she knew where I was most tense. It's like she read my mind. I told her my neck was so sore and I left there feeling so relieved. She stretches you out at the end too, and she does an amazing thing with your head, with tension at the top. She is friendly, says what we should focus on next time, and I will definitely be going back to her. Tony was also fantastic to deal with in scheduling! Great customer service. More...

I had booked my first massage at Unwind as a birthday gift to myself; the 90 minute Signature service.Unfortunately, I have a bad sense of direction. I found a parking spot two blocks over but became disoriented and couldn't locate the place. I called and spoke to Nicole and explained my dilemma. She was very understanding and patient with me by attempting to get me on the right path. At one point she said she was standing outside on the street corner looking for me (I was walking the opposite direction!). Now I"m getting upset because it's 15 minutes past my appointment. Nicole however, kept her head and gave me the name of a famous landmark to add to my GPS app on my phone. Found it! I was so close I felt ashamed of myself and almost in tears. I had shared to Nicole it was my birthday and I was so disappointed in myself. She was extremely understanding and helped me call down. Despite my being late, a room was found to accommodate my massage (got my full 90 minutes) and those tense muscles felt much better afterwards.When I came back to the front desk, Nicole had a glass of champagne with a candle lit cupcake waiting for!! She's an Angel. Great customer experience, I've found my go to spot for massages. More...

I love this lovely bodywork studio, where you are greeted kindly and invited to sit momentarily in a lovely space, always with water available.  It had been a long time since my last massage, but Paulo did not disappoint.  He is a highly talented professional who knows how to relieve muscular tension.  I'm grateful to have such a wonderful healing spa in my neighborhood.

I've never gotten a massage before and saw good reviews on Unwind Wellness Center, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I purchased a 30 minute Unwind Signature Massage and thoroughly enjoyed the massage. The front desk worker was kind and prompt, and the facilities were clean. My masseuse was responsive when I told her the massage was too hard and very kindly avoided areas where I was ticklish. I'd definitely come back and recommend the location to my friends! More...

I wanted to recommend Unwind to anyone who is sore or just needs to relax with a massage. I went there for a couples massage and was welcomed by Alexa at the front desk - excellent customer service and she was willing to help with anything we needed. Paulo and Guacira took care of the service and I don't think we could've left any happier. They're professionals but funny and caring at the same time. My boyfriend was really sore and by only touching his feet, Guacira knew which area he was in most pain. We both plan on coming back since customer service and professionals there are amazing!And thanks for Antonio who went above and beyond to ensure we felt appreciated and satisfied with the service.

I received a 90 minute deep tissue massage from Max and it was exactly what I wanted. I carry a lot of tension in my shoulders and my neck so I asked Max to focus on these areas and he did a great job. I usually have to ask the masseuse to apply more pressure, but Max has very strong hands and was able to provide the "hurts so good" feeling I prefer in my massages.I don't care for lower body massages and I let Max know. He did do some lower body massages, which I think was appropriate to make the massage a total body experience. But he did as I asked and really focused on my shoulders and my neck. I felt comfortable and Max was very respectful of my privacy- moving and rearranging the sheet to make sure I was never exposed. I'd definitely come back and recommend Max to anyone who's looking for a strong masseuse who can really loosen up tight muscles and knots. More...

I couldn't recommend this place more. All the therapists I've had are great. Particularly Dalcizo, Osmar and Magnolia. Also the receptionist (whoever was working tonight 4/1 Monday) is absolutely awesome. She adjusted my appointment time since I was stuck in traffic and was so nice when I arrived. I appreciate that kind of customer service. I was super tense when I got there today and feel tons better. Thanks Unwind! More...

I was in town visiting and desperately needed a massage. I found Unwind on Yelp and made an appointment. Shortly after I arrived they told me my therapist was unable to come in and they asked if I would mind another therapist.  At first I was mildly perturbed because the massage was not starting on time. About ten minutes later Daniel arrived and we preceded with the massage. He was extremely professional and apologetic that I had to wait. He explained they called him from home to come give my massage. The massage was amazing and it made me completely forget the late start. He is very talented and attentive. I highly recommend him. As I checked out, I truly had forgotten about the delay and the change of therapists. The lady at the counter, who was very apologetic and helpful told me she discounted my rate because of the change in therapist and the delay. I thanked her and left. My experience was amazing and I planned on writing a good review. About ten minutes after leaving I received a phone call from the lady at the front counter. She again apologized for the inconvenience. She said she told her boss and he was unhappy with the discount and wanted her to give me a bigger discount. I applaud the customer service and professionalism of the spa. You have an amazing location, incredible therapists, and you nail customer service. More...

Um is there a way to give 10 stars? I was super stressed at work and needed a great massage. I'm so used to used Soothe because it's convenient (house call massages) However their prices have shot up plus I wanted a full experience. I read reviews upon reviews and thank god stumbled upon Unwind. The adage that you get what pay for holds true here. Every review raves about Max so obviously I had to request him he's such a kind soul who knows exactly how to manipulate your body to target your areas of need. He even used hot stones and towels during the massage - and the bed was heated! Glorious. When you flip over at the end literally out of the hundreds of massages i have gotten never once was I given a nice pillow except here wow it's literally the small touches that make this place stand out! I am so impressed :) will definitely come back it was a bit pricey $100 but worth it - if you check in on yelp or go 10-1pm you get $10 off! More...

Delightful experience at unwind wellness center. Full hour of massage with great staff members. I had no problem or difficulty setting up my appointment to the time window of my preference - busy life, less time to care for myself, so it was important that they understood my time needs, and they did. It is also, above it all, very convenient to be able to tip on my card, instead of having to carry cash. More...

I've been coming to Unwind now for several years and I can honestly say they're the best place to get a massage in the DMV. The staff is so friendly and the decor is beautiful, but what really stands out above all else is the quality of the massages I've gotten here. I have three pinched nerves in my neck and every time I come the therapists are so incredibly knowledgable and talented. The massages I get here really help me manage my pain better than anything else I've tried. I'd recommend this place to ANYONE with back pain, or if you just want to treat yourself. Bottom line, it's a beautiful, relaxing, worthwhile experience! More...

My boyfriend and I wanted to do a couple's massage and after many yelp searches and googling, I came across Unwind in Adams Morgan. Very easy on-line booking and ample time options to accommodate busy schedules. Great experience from the moment you walk in, low lighting, very serene.   There was little or no check-in or waiting time. We were brought to the massage room immediately which was very well done, spacious and peaceful. Absolutely loved the décor and aesthetic. The therapist asked what areas needed focus and immediately she targets those muscle groups and follows my requests with confidence and consideration. It was a very relaxing and needed massage, a wonderful and very professional experience. Definitely looking forward in going again! More...

They offered champagne, different kinds of hot tea, and water. In addition, the staff was polite and they constantly checked on us to make sure we were doing okay. They definitely made us feel welcomed.As far as the massage, I told them to focus on my mid to upper back and my legs and they performed techniques to really release the tightness in those areas. I walked out feeling amazing and helped with my recovery after a long week at work and at the gym. I have had a few deep tissue massages before. However, I feel like this has been the best one I've had. I would definitely recommend this place. More...

Me and my girlfriend are visiting from the UK and booked a couples massage here for Valentine's Day after reading some great reviews. What an amazing experience it was, calming, relaxing and professional. We have had many massages back in Europe and this was by far one of the best places we've been to. The couples massage room is a wonderful space and we were made to feel very welcome from the minute we walked in and met our therapists, they individualised the treatments to our needs and worked out the tensions held in our upper backs. They ask what pressure we would like and got it spot on, I asked for strong and I wasn't disappointed. The knowledge of anatomy and physiology was second to none and we both came away feeling refreshed and relaxed. Even received a free glass of champagne before leaving! If you're visiting D.C. or live here, definitely visit, you won't be disappointed! More...

Never going anywhere else while I'm in the area. Just had my first massage yesterday, and it was a sublime experience. Antonio (the owner) was there to greet me at the door and was extremely welcoming and professional. My massage therapist was Julie, who was very kind and patient as I asked some newbie questions. I had a 60-min 'signature' massage and it was the perfect mixture of soft and medium pressure for my back. She did a fantastic job, especially on my tight upper back area. Room was comfortable and everything was clean. As I went to complete my payment, I mentioned that I originally booked under the early bird special listed online. Antonio didn't believe they were offering that special anymore (outdated ad or something), but still gave me the discount due to the confusion. In thanking him I said this entire experience was a birthday treat to myself, and he got so excited and disappeared in the back to get me "a surprise." While I waited for a couple minutes, the friendly receptionist and I chatted about travel, until Antonio suddenly appeared through the front door with a cupcake in hand. He literally walked over to the nearby cake store to buy me a birthday cupcake. I was floored by the thoughtfulness and care he and his staff take with their customers. Couldn't be happier with my experience and can't wait to go back. More...

I haven't even been in for my appointment yet, but their customer service thus far has been kind and helpful. When scheduling my appointment online, I accidentally scheduled it for the next day instead of in 2 weeks. I am out of town, so I obviously did not show up for the appointment and so, following their fair cancellation policy, I was charged. I called Unwind and explained what happened, and they refunded me (which they did not have to do), and they also helped me to reschedule the appointment for the correct date.

Unwind Wellness Center is a real gem - wonderful professionals and fantastic customer service!I received a gift certificate as a birthday gift, and booked a deep tissue massage. The experience was really nice - my masseuse did a lovely job - but it wasn't really a deep tissue that I had expected - more of a regular massage. I mentioned it to the receptionist while checking-out, and within 5 minutes I had a message from the owner, Antonio, that he would like to bring me back for a deep tissue massage on the house. I was blown away by his immediate reaction and absolute commitment to excellence. He did not want me walking out of his salon without 100% satisfaction. A few weeks later I returned for a deep tissue massage with Max.  The experience was extraordinary - probably the best deep tissue I have had in my entire life. I walked away almost floating on air!

After receiving a referral from a friend, I knew I had to make a reservation for my mom and I to leverage their couples massage option. It was a thank you gift to her for helping me move to a new state. And boy did we both need it. The space is cozy and quaint in an unassuming row building. We didn't exactly know where to go once we walked in, but soon realized to check-in, to go to the left on the main floor. We were asked to sit in the small lobby area and fill out some initial paperwork. One of the massage therapists came down to greet us and shook our hands with introductions. We followed him upstairs to a private room that was dimly lit and had soft comforting music playing in the background. He introduced us to his colleague and then gave us some privacy to change, though we didn't quite realize that was the intention at first. He came back to check a few times, though we weren't quite ready as we had layers and boots to decloth. They were both friendly and asked us what kind of massage we were looking for. I expressed that I'd like a deep tissue but had some problem areas specifically I'd like addressed. He then explained he would be focusing on all over body, including arms and feet. I didn't feel as if our sheets were read over thoroughly or that my problem areas were specifically addressed. But it was an all around good experience; very relaxing. He did follow through with a traditional deep tissue massage with firm pressure which I liked. My mom felt great afterwards and felt like her needs were met. My massage therapist worked on my face, specifically at the temples and eyebrows; my mom's did not. It would have been nice to know ahead of time as I was wearing some makeup. Both massage therapists were very nice and friendly. Overall, we were both happy with our experience and would go back! More...

I honestly couldn't believe there's a 5 Star anything in DC, but this place definitely deserves it. I was able to easily book online and a few hours before the appointment. So many options, plus you can pick a specific masseuse or a male or female. I just chose the anybody option because I just love massages and don't care who give me one (I'd let a stranger massage me in public, that's how much I love them). As a nice touch, they called before my massage to make sure a male masseuse would be fine and I confirmed. Got there an it's a nice relaxing environment. I got a deep tissue massage from I think Dalcizo Desouza. My complaint from the few professional massages I've gotten before is that they were never strong enough (except for one in Korea and man did that one hurt, but felt so good after) but this one was strong enough and fixed a lot of knots I had in my shoulders. Price was reasonable especially with the $10 off new customers and they give you a tray with water, chocolates, and a mint after.

If you are looking for a place to relax and have the best massage this is the place for you. I have had several therapists there, including Guacira, Paulo, Georgi (that works in GT location), Danielle and Max. They were all amazing, all of them have different styles and thecniques. I love Guacira because she does reflexology as well and knew exactly where I need the most work. Paulo was very strong when I needed to release the pain I had in my back. Danielle is just out of this world, she has a light of its own and makes you feel so relaxed and in peace, I normally go with her when I’m having a very stressful day, she knows how to take all of that from my body, she is amazing with essential oils as well. Georgi is strong and specialist in finding those knots you need Desperately to get rid of.

First time visiting Unwind and will definitely be back. Had a 60 minute deep tissue massage with Tamara who was AMAZING - seriously, she is a miracle worker. I've been to so many different massage locations in DC and Tamara is the first who used really firm pressure (which is what I like) AND seemed to really know the anatomy/physiology needed to make the massage therapeutic. I have been to other places where if you ask for firm pressure they sort of just dig in and beat up on your back haphazardly, but Tamara used firm pressure while carefully releasing the knots and using active release-type/stretching techniques. Will definitely be back and will be requesting Tamara!P.S. Some people below commented about how it's cold in the basement rooms. I was worried about that when I booked but in fact they seem to have taken customer feedback and added heated pads on the tables. I was toasty (but not too hot) and very comfortable! More...
