Bodies Kneaded Massage Spa South Beach Miami

A therapeutic massage spa on Española Way since 1996, built around deep tissue, sports and pain-relief work, plus facials.

Checked October 2026

For sore travelers, gym regulars and anyone with knotted shoulders who wants real pressure rather than a scented nap. It's not cheap, prepayment is required to hold a slot, and the menu leans clinical over pampering.

The treatments worth it

Deep tissue is the house specialty, and the menu leans therapeutic. The Weekend Warrior Reset pairs deep tissue and neuromuscular work with cupping, aromatherapy and CBD oils, from $200 for 60 minutes up to $350 for two hours. Just off a long flight? The Travel Unravel is 90 minutes for $250, with heated stones, cupping and herbal hydro packs. Desk-bound shoulders get Unplug & Unknot, 50 minutes for $150. Heated stones or cupping add $25 each to any massage. If you want a lighter touch, there's a relaxation massage with moderate pressure for people who'd rather not be worked over.

Facials and house calls

Facials here are handled by Mariano, with deep-cleansing options starting at $100 and a signature South Beach Glow if you want the full treatment. The easier move is the 30-minute express facial tacked onto a massage for $75, or $100 on its own. The site says those promotional add-on prices expire in November 2026, so confirm when you book. The spa also sends therapists out with chair or table massage to hotels, yachts, cabanas, home parties and corporate events across South Florida. Book early for groups.

Booking

Nothing is held until you pay: only prepayment confirms an appointment, and appointments are suggested rather than walk-ins. The spa says texting is faster than calling, and WhatsApp works too. It's open 8 am to 9 pm every day, which makes an early session before the beach or an evening one after a workout easy to fit in. It has been in the same spot since 1996, at Drexel Avenue and Española Way, two blocks south of Lincoln Road and three blocks west of Ocean Drive. It holds 4.9 from about 230 Google reviews.
