I hesitate to tell you all about this hidden gem because then I will never be able to make an impromptu appointment.; But seriously, what a lovely atmosphere and staff, so calm and and welcoming. Amanda has magic fingers, best massage I ever had! She listened to my requested pressure and used the perfect amount. Lastly, it is all the little extra thoughtful details that really pushes this wonderful establishment to the top--heated tables, cold eye masks, heated neck pillows, delightful smelling oils and heated towels. Amara Massage Therapy and Wellness will have you floating on a blissful cloud of paradise!

I had a wonderful massage yesterday at Amara Massage in Fort Collins! Sheila followed all of my requests and applied the pressure that I felt I needed. Very relaxing, felt like a million when I left there. The person at the desk was efficient and knowledgeable. Thank you to all involved with me! I would highly recommend this spa for a great massage!

This was my first time at Amara and I could not be more pleased! Everything was extremely relaxing and my therapist Alyse (or Elise) was so kind and soothing! They take into consideration where you want them to focus, without compromising the entirety of a full body massage. I had a lovely experience and would highly recommend Amara!

Amara is fantastic. I found them after reading reviews for prenatal massages in Fort Collins. Brittany, Ashley and Sheila have all been excellent and have kept me feeling good during my pregnancy. I will definitely continue to visit even after my baby is born.

I had a great Massage with Alyse. My husband had someone else (not sure who). As far as the place/room goes, it was comfortable & relaxing 100%. The staff was super friendly as well. Everyone is different, likes different things. Each massage is not the same, especially with different massage therapists. It was great, but not the best of our lives. I would most likely go back & have Alyse, but my husband said he would try again but with someone different.
He said it was awkward pressure even though he spoke up about what he did/didn't like. Not sure if it was my husband, the therapist, or all of the above. But don't let this stop you from trying them out, they have plenty of 5 star reviews, & as mentioned above, everyone is different.
