FIRST TIME CLIENT SPECIAL - 90 min Wat Signature Massage (Monday-Friday only, Except Holidays). One of the primary goals of the Swedish massage technique is to relax the entire body. This is accomplished by rubbing the muscles with long gliding strokes in the direction of blood returning to the heart.
Look for the leaf! It's a origina l leaf from the bodhi tree where Buddha meditated in Gaya India, it feel from the thee in front of the owner of wat massage. In budism it's sign of blessing. As you came in notice the huge lotus flower carved on wood from India, and bronze statue from Thailand. This amazing silver statues are also from Thailand and right below them you will find crowns used in festivities and traditional Thai dance.

Had an awesome first-time client, 90-min. appt. with Madeline and actually got the deep tissue pressure I've been looking for from a masseuse in the DMV. Really got what I paid for and will be returning. She even gave me a little gift on the way out! Super sweet person and true professional

I visited Wat Massage thanks to a birthday gift card and had the most amazing experience! Sheena did an excellent job and found muscles I didn't even know I had. Will be coming back!

I'm a runner and have super-tight muscles, which often lead to injury. I did a 1.5 hour massage with Ms. Victoria and it was awesome. She has an excellent touch--just the right amount of pressure--and was great at working out all kinds of knots I didn't know I had.

My husband died and my stress, sadness, and worry have been challenging. Raj helped relieve knots in my back and shoulders. With her help I can face another day.

Incredible!!! Latrice is truly amazing at what she does; I usually am unsatisfied by massages but she applies the right amount of pressure and I left feeling fantastic :) Absolutely the best massage I've ever had - could not recommend highly enough

I've had dozens of massages in my life, but my massage with Sheena was hands down the best I've had in my entire life. She knows the body extremely well and found areas that I didn't know even existed. 10/10 would recommend. I will be coming back.

It was my first time at Wat Massage. I like strong massages and it is hard to find one. I certainly found it this time and will be back. LaTrice was amazing! She understood my needs, she knew all the points that needed to be massaged. I am beyond thankful.

I gifted my husband a Traditional Thai massage by Ratchanee and he LOVED it.

He said he changed into a very comfortable Thai pants and shirt for the massage. Ratchanee asked him a few questioned and performed an amazing combination of stretches, yoga poses, acupressure and massage.
He left extremely relaxed. She got out all the cracks he's always trying to get in his back.
He slept like a bay that night and wants to go monthly.

I'm so happy with the booking process and the appointment reminders. I'm happy my birthday gift was a huge success.
Thank you.

Madeline was amazing! She regularly checked to make sure the pressure and temperature were good. She did a great job on problem areas.

My husband thought Lawrence was also great.

Attention to detail was given to create a complete relaxing environment with interior design, soft music and water fountains. Multiple treatment rooms are available and the employees are kind and professional. Alex is the best and he has helped me work thru shoulder issues as well as just escape from the daily grind.

Super impressed with the massages I get here. I like to get sports massages or deep tissue to make it more productive for sports recovery and other places I have been to (like Unwind) I wasn’t happy w the level of pressure or their ability to find my most tense spots to go deep on. Everyone at Wat has been excellent and they even have a trigger point massage specialist. Very clean and relaxing atmosphere.

I don't get to get a massage as often as I'd like, but in the seven years I've lived in DC, Wat is my favorite, go-to spot. I love the ambiance, the cleanliness, and the professionalism of the caring staff and owner. Tonight I finally decided to write a review because my therapist did such an amazing job. I got the Wat Signature massage, which is a combination of relaxing Swedish plus deep tissue. The therapist deserves 5 stars for the work he did - he was so responsive to my body and my needs. Can't wait until the next one!

As a first-time client, I couldn't have been more satisfied with my overall experience at Wat Massage. I had a great 90-minute massage with Sheena Morris. She was very professional, listened attentively, and is highly skilled. I will definitely be back again. Thanks, Sheena!

I felt like a new person after my 90-minute massage with Dan! I'm not sure what to call the type of massage I got ... myofascial or deep tissue maybe? But it was excellent! He worked away the last 15 months of knots and tightness in my shoulders, neck, and arms. Dan communicated what he was doing at all times, and I felt extremely comfortable to let him know if l needed any changes to pressure or anything else. The other staff at Wat Massage are extremely helpful and responsive as well. I'll definitely be back soon!

My boyfriend and I moved from California to the East Coast to take care of his sick mother and after five months of living here, we decided to take a break and take a staycation in DC. We ended our trip at Wat Massage and walked out of there with a huge weight lifted off our shoulders. The place was cute and quaint located in a trendy area.

My massage therapist was Ms. Madeline, not only was she kind and professional, but she did a fantastic job sending me off to a different atmosphere in a state of relaxation. It was just what I needed to relieve some stress. When choosing the essential oil she

Today was my second visit to Wat Massage, and I can't recommend it more. Though it had been maybe a year and a half or more since my last visit, my massage therapist (Madeline) remembered me, and the customer service was great!

I had an hour long Swedish/deep tissue massage. I think Madeline would be especially good with folks who are sensitive or prefer a more gentle touch--she has a way of holding a knotted area (without forcefully kneading) in a way in which the tension breaks and the area relaxes. She is of course, amenable and can knead hard as well. The space is clean, as always, and

My husband gifted me a massage on Valentine's Day. The location is great but there is literally NO parking and the street is one way and busy so you have to know where you're going to find it. It's a row house with steep stairs and there's not a bathroom on the main level. I think I had to go to the third floor to use the bathroom.

I love intense pressure and told the technician so. He was like - say no more! Lol. He didn't exactly beat me up but I must admit that I was SOOOORE the next day. But the day after that, I felt better than I had in months. My tech knew his

The ONLY place in DC to get a massage!!
I've tried a few diff massage places in DC and have been disappointed but Wat Massage is THE place to go! I followed Yelp's advice and booked 1.5 hr new patient deep tissue massage with Latrice and she was AMAZINGGGG! TRUE deep tissue pressure, which is hard to find. She clearly knows and understands the body's anatomy which is so helpful for getting the full muscle relaxed. I can't say enough good things, it was perfect. And the facilities and room was beautiful: professional and relaxing, and of course all following Covid protocols.

My boyfriend and I were there last weekend for a couples massage. We have had massages at several different locations and this was by far the best. The space was very peaceful and nicely decorated. Very clean environment and professional. I would recommend.
