For anyone looking for a massage therapist/Esthetician or Eye Lash extensions. Please consider this hidden Gem. Melissa is who I work with. She is my masseuse, and does my facials as well. I was looking for a new eye lash tech, and decided to give her a try. Again, she did not disappoint. She did an amazing job. She prides herself in giving her customers the best possible experience, and does such an amazing job. The facility is super clean, and she has one of the best playlists in the business . You will definitely doze off a few times wondering where you are. She is extremely talented. If you need a few hours to get away and treat yourself, please give this Queen a try. I promise you won’t regret it. Thank you Melissa. I love my lashes. 🩷

A few years ago I started to get massages with Melissa at Serene Therapies because my old massage therapist had moved. I Googled for some place in my area and started to read reviews and every single one they had was glowing so I figured I would give them a try. I like that I get to support a small business and their prices are much more affordable than any of the big chain massage places. Their schedule system was also very easy to use and I liked that I could just go online and schedule whenever I wanted a massage instead of having to call.But what you really want to know is that Melissa is amazing. I have multiple auto immune disorders so I tend to have a lot of inflammation, plus I have some herniated discs. She always asked what areas I wanted worked on and she always had the most helpful suggestions from trying different products to introducing me to hot towels and hot stones. The pressure she used was perfect but she always checked to make sure if I needed more or less. She truly cares about your well being and wants to help you feel better and I can confidently say I always left with more mobility than when I arrived.Whether you just need to relax or you have real problem areas that need to be worked on, Melissa is the massage therapist for you.

I had my first facial with Melissa today and she was absolutely amazing! She was very thorough and walked me through my first chemical peel with ease. So happy I found her and cant wait until next time.

Melissa’s hands are blessed. After delivering my child I had severe swelling. I booked a lymphatic drainage massage with Melissa and she worked wonders. Within 7 days all swelling was gone. Excellent customer service and amazing environment.

Miss Melissa is an absolute treasure! She always asked me how the pressure was and ensured that I was comfortable at ALL times. She definitely cares about her clients and aims to ensure that they have the best experience possible. I received a 90 minute massage with hot stones and I felt like I was in heaven throughout the entire session. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a massage. Thank you Miss Melissa!!! And Jocelyn too of course! Both of them are amazing!!!!

Have been scheduling monthly massages with Melissa. She is outstanding and an incredibly sweet person! She listens to your needs and does an amazing job. I am blown away every time on how she is able to just melt away any knots I have in my back from tension. I highly recommend her if you are looking for an excellent masseuse. Ive have many massages and she is by far the best

Had my first massage here today. Definitely coming back. Melissa was ah-mazing. She worked parts of my body I didnt even realize were tense. She was so personable and friendly, very patient and talked me through each new thing she was going to do. She was very firm when needed and read my reactions well. Guess that is what 14 years of experience will do. Atmosphere is calming and relaxing. Seems the folks here really love what they do. Previous reviews were spot on. Glad I took a chance! Thank you!

Melissa is truly amazing! She actually listens to my needs and works on the areas that need the most attention, always communicating a lot and making sure Im comfortable. Shes also a great conversationalist and always makes me feel like a friend which is so nice. Switching from the corporate chain massage behemoth to Serene Therapies was one of the best decisions Ive ever made.

Melissa is absolutely amazing! Had my first prenatal massage with her this morning and feeling great! Such a sweet personality- makes you feel like you’ve known her forever. Highly recommend!

My massage experience today was amazing! Not only is the atmosphere and decor incredibly soothing, but Melissa genuinely provided concern and care to the problem areas in my back. I am not one to normally get frequent massages, but I definitely plan on coming back in one month. I would recommend Serene Therapies to anyone who needs a great relaxation experience or with muscle tension problems. Massage therapy provides both physical and mental health benefits. Overall, the experience was fantastic and my body feels rejuvenated. Thank you again! :)

Surprised my sissy with a birthday massage a little while ago and she absolutely loved it! She said Melissa was amazing! She was so patient, thorough, and caring. You can tell Melissa really cares about her clients and wants the best for them! It was her first massage experience and she def would return.

Review 12 (2020-08-21 - Rating: 5)
Simply said, Melissa is AMAZING!!! Its very easy to tell that she truly cares about her clients and the service she provides. She DELIVERS every time with measured results!! I have had hip pain for weeks thinking it was due to a herniated disk; however, after one visit, I was fixed! No more pain and I finally slept thru the night. She pays attention to her clients needs and addresses them individually! On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate Melissa a 20! Off the charts fantastic!! Very Highly Recommended. My husband and I will be setting up bi-weekly appointments here on out. She is well worth the 45-Minute drive!

Let me tell you about Melissa!! As a Massage Therapist myself, I can honestly say that I have never found someone as intuitive as Melissa work on me. She listens to what I have going on, and she also tunes in and there is an energetic communication that occurs. My body is able to unwind deep holding patterns with her support. Melissa has body knowledge that is a gift, not something that can be taught to just anyone. She is a master of her craft and a true healer in every sense of the word.

Pamela is the best therapist when you need someone to actually work on your muscles and get knots out! She really knows what she is doing! The office is also so cute, and always decorated for all the seasons!

Review 15 (2023-05-07 - Rating: 5)
Mel is AMAZING. I had some unbearable nerve pain in my back/left shoulder a few years ago and other massage places left me in even more pain. But Mel knew exactly how to treat it with heat/ice and how to position my arm while on the table to keep the pain from getting worse. I’ve been going back to her ever since; I won’t go anywhere else. She’s kind and courtesy, and I never feel rushed. There are zero upsale gimmicks like at other massage places in the area. She puts clients first.

For all you “Macho Men” out there that think massages are for women, let this old Marine Corps Sgt set you straight. Melissa is beyond fantastic! Before I went to see her I was seeing a Dr. every two months to get shots of steroids and muscle relaxers in my back and shoulder. I have not needed one shot this whole year! But that’s not all! Melissa has a way of making you comfortable and relaxed that is second to none. Her bright attitude and sensitive nature allows for you to remain silent or talk her ear off during your sessions. She adjusts the sessions to your needs and is very attentive to your tied up knots and problem areas. Melissa is friendly, professional and can make you feel oh sooo good. After each session I feel like I had three cocktails and fell asleep in a hot tub. The prices are more than reasonable, especially when you consider the amount of pain relief you get. So treat yourself guys you won’t regret it, but you can’t have my time slot! OORAH!

I have been going to Jocelyn Polo at this location for a little over a year now. Each time, the experience is a 5 star service and experience! She has such a soothing way to make you feel comfortable and at ease. This truly makes a difference with a massage! The prices are very reasonable and I would recommend her hands of gold to anybody looking for a quality licensed massage therapist. Thanks Jocelyn!

Melissa is amazing. I highly recommend her and Serene Therapies. I have been going to her for several years for deep tissue massage as well as therapy after heavy workouts ot super long days spent at my desk. I always feel relief from achy muscles after a session.

I’ve been going there for 2 months already and planning to keep getting my massages with Melissa Escarcha. She’s very friendly and definitely know her job well. The environment is very relaxing and clean. She asks me which area of my body I want more attention and every time I leave that place I’m relived from my aches. I highly recommend her!

Review 22 (2019-09-19 - Rating: 5)
Very pleased with my experience. I have nerve damage in my right shoulder that causes me intense pain and restricts my movements. After one session with Melissa I have regained some range of motion and am no longer in constant pain. Her professionalism and expertise is greatly appreciated. I will be returning monthly!

I have been going to Mel for over 2 years at this point for my massages because she is hands down the best you will get. Her space is calm and relaxing, she is professional and welcoming and her prices cant be beat. I recommend her to all my friends, and even a few enemies.

The moment you step into Serene Therapies, you know youve made the right choice and that youll be leaving refreshed, relaxed and ready to take on your week. I consider myself a very discerning consumer, especially in the areas of the healing arts and wellness, and I have not once been dissatisfied with the talent and professionalism that this gem delivers. The office, waiting area and rooms are tastefully designed but not overdone and impeccably clean. But dont let the modern ambiance fool you. The staff at Serene Therapies are always warm and down to earth and know you as a true client, not just another run of the mill customer. I love the ease of scheduling as well. I love this place! Well worth the investment in my health.

Jocelyn Polo is a miracle worker! Her massage is relaxing and gentle, but at the same time she can work out the toughest muscle knots. I recommend adding the hot stones to the massage - the heat makes the massage even more effective. Jocelyn is simply the best!

Review 29 (2016-08-28 - Rating: 5)
Absolutely the best place in Orlando for massage! Melissa is WONDERFUL -- knowledgeable, caring and professional! I have medical issues and Melissa has done wonders for me. If you need a relaxing massage, this is the best place. If you need a medicinal, therapeutic massage, this is the ONLY place!
