Coastal Massage & Spa

I received a gift certificate to Coastal from my husband as a birthday gift. He knows nothing about massages and got me the Swedish massage ($80). I haven’t had a massage in 6 years or more (it was also a gift), so I’m admittedly new to the experience as well. When filling out the forms, it asked if I have any specific area of tingling/numbness and what pressure I like. I marked that I like deeper pressure and I have a specific spot on my shoulder. When I met with the masseuse she mentioned that a Swedish massage is a lighter pressure but she’d be willing to do a little moderate pressure for my shoulder. I said that was fine and figured I’d add to her tip. When I was checking out though- they charged me for the other massage (deeper pressure) and not a Swedish. So I had to pay additional money to make the difference of my certificate and my massage. This bothered me because 1. It was never mentioned that I was receiving a different massage or 2. Would be paying any extra for the “little extra moderate to deep pressure” and 3. It took away from the whole experience. Nothing like a good bait and switch to take you out of your relaxed state RIGHT after a massage. I even tipped for her extra kindness to turn around and be charged for it. I found this practice unprofessional and I would not go back.

Hands down (no pun intended) the best spa in Wilmington. Every massage therapist on staff is incredible. If you're unsure of what type of work you need, give them a call and they will pair you with the perfect therapist for your needs. This spa is casually intimate and priced right. I always leave feeling loose, relaxed and in a state of bliss. Coastal Massage & Spa is my happy place. I surprised my husband with an in home couple's massage for his birthday and now he is hooked to and will tell you that if you're thinking about going, stop thinking and book today. Theresa and here team are incredible. Did I mention they're opening in a new location (across the street) and offering more rooms and a broader array of service? If you need to destress, this is your place. :)

For someone that works in heels, exercises frequently and is often at a computer, the deep tissues at Coastal Massage are LIFE-CHANGING. I have never experienced so much relief. I have received couples massages, plenty of deep tissue massages and a facial. Every treatment is excellent and EVERY therapist is great! I love how they find my problem areas and work through them until I feel brand new. I have been a regular customer for six months now, and now I am going twice a month, for the rest of my life!

01-09-2018. I recently visited Coastal Massage and Bodywork after a recommendation by a friend; it is a beautiful, cozy, friendly and immaculate place. I wanted a 90 minute deep tissue session because my upper back, shoulder is badly knotted. Paula Byrd did an amazing job! It was the best treatment I've ever had; my entire body was completely relaxed And pain-free. I recommend Paula and Coastal Massage to anyone looking for a top-notch, impeccable and great experience. I am definitely coming back.

I have been to coastal massage multiple times and it has been amazing every single time!! My massage so relaxing and I left feeling wonderful and rejuvenated. The atmosphere is beautiful, soothing and tranquil. I love going to coastal massage and have brought my mom and sister in law when they come to visit from out of town. I would recommend it to anyone!
