I wanted to share my experience to help others make an informed decision.
The spa itself is beautiful, clean, and has a very relaxing atmosphere. From a facilities standpoint, it’s exactly what you’d hope for in a massage experience.
However, I will not be returning due to my experience with one of the male massage therapists. I’ve had at least 50 massages over the years, and this was the first time I’ve ever felt uncomfortable to this degree. Throughout the session, there were multiple moments where the therapist’s actions felt like they were consistently on the verge of being inappropriate. While nothing overtly explicit occurred, the overall experience left me feeling uneasy rather than relaxed.
I want to be thoughtful and responsible with this kind of feedback, which is why I took time after the appointment to reflect before posting. That said, I would feel remiss not sharing this, especially for other women who may be considering booking here.
I would strongly encourage the spa to review professional boundaries and client comfort standards with their staff. A massage should always feel safe, respectful, and relaxing—this one did not.

The massage work was amazing! My massage therapist listened to my concern and addressed what I needed. The facility is clean and ambiance is very soothing. I like the ocean wave sound and sound machine. I only gave 4 stars because scheduling online was clunky, not clear where to add the promo code for current ongoing offer. I tried 3 times, finally gave up and called to schedule directly. The front desk staff was super helpful. Best to call and schedule the massage if this is your first time.

Was in town for a conference and wore the WRONG shoes to be on a hard concrete exhibit floor for 8hours 😩 I could not walk out of the convention center fast enough to get to my appt at The Now! Thank goodness for the recommendation of a local working in the booth with me. Let me be very clear about this…. I walked in feeling broke down and when I walked out I was a whole new person. Literally. The guest assistant who checked me out to pay literally said to me “I’d ask how your massage was but the look on your face says it all!” And she was absolutely correct. For 25+ years I have had massages and in many cities. Hands down ANAS is in my Top Five Best Massage Therapist! This man has magic hands. I was so impressed with the massage I immediately purchased a membership package. I don’t live in New Orleans but there are a couple of The Now locations in my city. I have traveled to New Orleans just to come back for a massage with ANAS a couple of times since purchasing my membership. He is just that Good!! I have tried other locations in Nashville and Atlanta, hear me loud and clear when I say NOBODY can come close to the massage ANAS delivers. I now look for reasons to book business and/or personal travel to take me to New Orleans just so I can make an appt with Anas. Believe me he is the truth!

I had a wonderful experience at the Now Massage. I went in for an 80-min Swedish, deep tissue massage and my masseuse, Felicia, was beyond amazing!
She was very thorough and asked me which areas needed to be worked on. I haven't had a massage in 2 years and Felicia was exactly what my body needed. I asked for the firm to deep pressure and now, my body feels rejuvenated and light.
Thank you, Felicia, and I look forward to my monthly visits! The lady at the reception was very friendly and the overall experience was truly worthwhile. If anyone is looking for a massage, this is the only place I'd recommend.
Frequently Asked Questions About The NOW Massage Downtown New Orleans
How does The NOW differ from a traditional spa?
The NOW has reimagined the approachable luxury of a neighborhood spa with high-quality massages and exclusive enhancements that offer relaxation and healing. Our goal is to offer customizable massage services without the time commitment and cost of a traditional spa.
When should I arrive for my massage?
Please aim to arrive 15 minutes prior to your scheduled massage to permit ample time for check-in. As a courtesy to other members and guests, we must start and end each massage service at the scheduled time; accordingly, we will not be able to extend the time of your service if you arrive late.
How do I book a massage?
You can schedule an appointment online at www.thenowmassage.com, through The NOW Massage app, or by contacting the boutique directly by phone. We also welcome walk-ins, but due to high demand, we recommend scheduling in advance.
How do I cancel a service that I’ve scheduled?
A booked massage can be canceled by logging into your account on the website, through The NOW Massage app, or by calling the boutique. Please be aware of our late cancellation policy. We respectfully request at least 12 hours notice if you need to cancel or rebook your massage appointment. We charge 50% of the reservation made to the credit card on file to compensate our staff for missed wages when there is a last minute cancellation.
What if I fail to show for a scheduled massage or arrive late?
If you miss your appointment or arrive 15 minutes past your scheduled service start time, the service is automatically canceled and the full price of the scheduled service is charged to the credit card on file. To ensure a relaxing experience, and get the full benefits of the massage, we advise guests to arrive on time (or early) for all scheduled appointments.
How can I cancel my membership?
Ritual Members can cancel their recurring dues membership at any time by providing their boutique with 30-days written notice stating the desire to cancel. You may cancel in-person at the boutique or by sending an email to the boutique where your membership was purchased. All boutique contact information can be found under the locations page on our website.
Note: In states where required by applicable law, in addition to the above, you can also choose to cancel your membership through choosing the cancellation option on your membership profile online.
How long do I have to use massage credits?
Membership credits can accrue indefinitely until a Ritual Membership is canceled. Unused massage credits will continue to accrue (i.e., roll-over month-to-month) as long as your membership remains in place. You will have 3 months from the date of cancellation to use any unused massage credits before they expire. No refunds are issued for unused credits.
Can I freeze my membership?
The freeze policy allows you to temporarily suspend your Ritual Membership in accordance with the following terms: You may freeze your membership up to three(3) months per contractual year. Please see our Terms of Service for more details.
Do you accept gift cards?
Yes, we accept gift cards for The NOW Massage services and products. Gift card terms and conditions do apply. For more details on our gift card program, please refer to our Terms of Service.
Do you permit minors to use services?
Yes, unless the state, province or territory prohibit it by law, The NOW Massage makes services available to minors between the ages of 13 and 17. Minor use of services requires the written consent of a parent or legal guardian, and additional restrictions may apply. Please see our Terms of Service for more details.
Are services and pricing subject to change?
Yes, please note that prices and services are subject to change at any time.
What if I’m not feeling well?
If you are feeling sick or unwell prior to the start of your scheduled massage, we encourage you to stay home. The NOW Massage boutique is an open-space concept and keeping guests and team members safe is everyone’s responsibility. If you begin to feel sick during your treatment, please let your Massage therapist know immediately.
What is the NOW's policy related to cell phone use at the boutique?
We aim to create a safe and relaxing environment for our members and guests. The tranquility offered within our space is paramount. Cell phones can be disruptive and are not encouraged. Although we do allow cell phones at the boutique, we require that the phones be turned off or switched to silent mode upon check-in.
Can I return purchased items?
Yes, if you’ve purchased items in a boutique, we accept returns in original condition (unused, undamaged and unopened in the original packaging) within seven days from the date of purchase. All items purchased in a boutique are only eligible for return or exchange in the same location it was purchased. Because jewelry is made-to-order, jewelry is eligible for exchange only.
If you’ve purchased items online – through The NOW’s website – we accept returns in original conditions (unused, undamaged and unopened in original packaging) provided you first obtain a return authorization number, which you can request by emailing shop@thenowmassage.com. The return authorization number must be written clearly on the outside of the box. Return and exchange shipping costs are the customer’s responsibility and the original shipping charge is nonrefundable.
