Reviews of Evolve Massage & Alternative Healing, LLC (Massage Therapist)

Shana Curry

In the middle of my first session with Brittany, I knew I would be returning. She is very nice and so is the atmosphere.

K Evans

Great experience!

Brian Lays

My wife and I had an excellent experience with Michael and Ian, both of whom worked with us to find the right pressure for deep tissue massage. They were friendly, engaging, and experts at what they do. We would highly recommend them.

Jeremy Hatley

Great and friendly staff! I'll be back for more massages in the future

Laquiana Sanders

Very professional

Erin Mahaffey

I don’t buy Groupons often but I researched the reviews on this business and was pleasantly surprised. I decided to give it a try. I was not disappointed! Ian gave me one of the best massages I have ever had. I have been sore for three days since! I love that!! I want to leave a healing massage feeling like my knots were truly conquered. Ian is an artist! I would be so grateful to have him give me another massage. The ambience of the facility was very calming and tranquil as well. Overall a 10+!

Mollie Lichter

The two people with the fewest reviews are currently offering website specials. The new shop is lovely. Ian has incredible technique and drive. In my experience, he was incredibly talented and so so kind. However, he lacks maturity, confidence, and emotional intelligence. I wouldn't know this if he hadn't talked throughout the massage. I spoke to his female business partner, Valerie, whose loyalty to him clouds her perspective, his growth, and general customer service qualities. It is possible they are facing burnout and I mean no ill will but they are business owners as well as reiki healers-- which I have always been open to but no longer take seriously or even mildly consider. Edit to response: see the “healers” belittle me by insinuating I’m not on “my path” and that this is an effort to “vent frustration” rather than genuinely share a baffling experience below.

Jennifer is a new person, thanks to Mike. The organization is well represented.

Cindy Jones

There was no thought put into the building or location. There is no street address on the front of the building so that was an issue trying to find the place. The atmosphere was way too noisy. The walls are super thin and I had a hard time relaxing and enjoying my massage. The entire time I could hear someone talking and everything that was going on outside of the room. I have never experienced a massage like this. So disappointed.

Caitlin Grimes

Short Review: Absolutely amazing for pain therapy. Owners Val and Michael are wonderful and I feel are truly doing this to help people. I have had pain therapy massages by Ian (also an owner) and Dalton. I have been consistently going with Dalton and haven't been this pain free in years. Long Review: I had an upper back/neck injury which has given me chronic pain for 6 years. One year ago I herniated a disc in my neck and the pain got to a 9. Three docs recommended surgery (which I didn't do). PT got me to about a consistent 5 or 6 pain level but I would still have flare ups every couple of weeks. I have tried everything you can imagine (PT, neuromuscular release, chiropractor, epidurals, traditional massage, deep tissue massage, yoga, stretching, foam roller) and I still could not get rid of the deep discomfort in my upper back/neck. Since I have been going to Evolve, I have been at about a one in pain. It has been truly life changing. I cannot say enough wonderful things about coming here. Dalton is absolutely spectacular. Very professional and a great communicator when it comes to explaining what/why/how to get to the bottom of the issue. I cannot recommend him and the rest of the Evolve crew enough. The best money I have ever spent. You will not be disappointed.

Meghan Ryan

Amazing massage with lots of great stretching. My entire body feels like it can relax to it's right place again. Everybody there is really cool and the space is awesome.

David Hamilton

Just got home from a fantastic massage with Michael at Evolve. I've been having back pain for a while, so I reluctantly booked an appointment, and it was a great decision. Michael was pleasant, professional and knowledgeable. He took the time to understand exactly what was going on, where the problem was, and talked me through what he was doing. I already feel better- highly recommend Evolve!

SkylarandJessica Knight

Michael did an excellent job of taking all the stressful energy out of me! Will come again!

Jaz E Hill

Professional massage therapists with a fresh perspective on healing physical pain aches and maintaining health holistically.

Christina Buntyn

Bought a 1 hr massage for my husband for his birthday, everything was easy to pay and make appointments. He loved it and wants to go back, well worth the drive from Montgomery :)

J Brown

I went to Ian for a deep tissue massage and it was amazing. I am a little wary of reviews by others, but all seemed to be good. It is easy to get to, easy to park, very prompt... all around great experience. I will definitely go back.

Rebecca Treat

Amazing experience here, Megan did a great job helping me feel comfortable for my first appointment. I left very relaxed and excited to schedule me next appointment

Michael Bryan

I had my first massage ever at Evolve and it was wonderful! My wife and I did the couples massage and we will definitely be going back. Thanks so much for your wonderful services!!!

KaiXi Zhang

Don’t bother! They don’t answer the phone nor do they respond to text or emails to set up an appointment! Complete lack of customer service. Obviously they don’t need your business.

Sofia M Saavedra Collado

The people, the atmosphere, the service! Its all just amazing! Megan gave me a customized massage that left me feeling on a cloud afterwards. Will be returning!

Brittney Bolen

Dalton is the best. It is a very calm inviting atmosphere.

Rhonda Diffy

A small place, they listen to your needs and are friendly but I didn't get the deep tissue massage that I asked for.

maxx a

Massage was great! Val is very attentive and will customize your massage. If you like strong pressure ask for Val when you go

Mimi Dawgs

Therapist was nice but had no clue what a Deep Tissue means. And I do not like listening to loud “hippie” music when I’m trying to relax.

Roxann Knox

It was our first time there we have gotten massage before. There techniques were so different they made it your comfortable experience. We will definitely be going back

Megan Maier

Just had my first massage here with the wonderful Meghan! Everything about this visit was awesome. The atmosphere, the room setup, the aromatherapy... Meghan was very flexible and diligent in figuring out what works: what scent I wanted for aromatherapy, what problem areas I had, what type of massage I wanted, how much pressure she wanted me to use... I can't say enough wonderful things about her and this place! I booked 2 more appointments before I even left! Should ABSOLUTELY check this place out!

Kimberly Ross-Wurst

Get a massage, facial or mani pedi here!

Shawn Scott

I felt like I had been through a meat tenderizer after my deep-tissue message but in a really good way

Lucie Noriscat

I just left here feeling like I am floating. Feeling brand new and so amazing. Chris is about to be my new BFF because he literally released knots that nobody else has been able to do in a year. And customer service is on point! This was sooooooo worth it. I already booked my next visit. Highly recommend this place!!!!!!!

Sarah Stoves

Had an incredible couples massage here with my husband -- happened upon Evolve from LivingSocial, but would've happily paid full price for the expertise that they provided during our visit. Both Ian and Michael were skilled, intuitive, and highly attentive in their techniques, which left my husband and me in a delightfully rosy haze upon leaving. The environment is authentically sublime and a place for true healing.

Bodhi Zen Massage Therapy

Ian K is absolutely the best!! I mean the slayer of massage. I went in barely able to move my arm and when I left I moved my arm in a circle for the first time in a week. His stretches are freaking awesome!!!! I have already scheduled my next massage. Definitely recommend!!! Give them a call and schedule today!!!

Mz Thiknez

I had the best massage experience ever! This is my second time going to Evolve, because I appreciate the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. The atmosphere is so calming and relaxing in itself! My therapist Dalton, was AMAZING! He made me feel relaxed and calm during the entire session! Can't wait for visit #3!

Landra Black

Meghan was wonderful! My mom got my husband and I a massage groupon for Christmas. Meghan had just enough pressure and I left feeling very relaxed!

Rômulo Pereira

Amazing atmosphere , very professional, the service was great, the message therapist really know what they are doing. Definitely I’ll be coming back.

Corinne Bryan

My husband and I received our first massages today, it was awesome! Won’t go anywhere else in Birmingham for massages. Very welcoming, great atmosphere, wonderful people!!
