    I have received a voucher as a gift. The booking process was smooth and I chose José as my therapist. The place is extremely clean, cozy, with a very relaxing vibe. I was very happy to get into a hands of a very positive and professional masseuse. Customer experience is also great, I had some misunderstanding how the voucher worked and emailed the team with some feedback, the team responded instantly and with full empathy. I really appreciate when I'm treated with respect and also being empathised with. So, I highly recommend Tension Tamers - you won't regret and probably it's the best massage place in town! Thank you!

    I went there for Deep tissue massage along with my wife for 90 minutes session on Easter Day.I had back stiffness due to working from home and sitting in office chair for 8 hrs. The deep tissue massage was not up-to my expectations because the pressure that masseuse applied was not enough for deep tissue massage, I had even mentioned during my massage session that pressure is not enough. At the end season she told as she is just back from vacation and not feeling 100%. Overall I was not happy or satisfied with massage experience at Tension Tamers and it was not value for money and time I invested.

    For the 3rd time massage from Panos: truly fantastic. He is a very talented massage therapist and I can totally recommend him.

    I totally recommend Tension Tamers! I had a therapeutic massage with Jose this week to relieve my shoulder and back and his magical hands made miracles again! He is fantastic!

    First time here. Received a deep tissue massage from Laura. This was honestly the best I have ever had. The precision and thoughtfulness was top drawer. Very conscious massage where the body feedback is very well detected. Will surely be back!

    I have to admit that I was skeptical of all the good reviews. I had to use up some ClassPass credits and thought “why not?”. After trying a lot of different massages in Amsterdam and being disappointed, I wasn’t expecting much. I’m so glad I picked Tension Tamers today, I had a great massage from Leander. I feel like he worked out knots and tension that I’ve had for years- this is one of the best massages I’ve ever had. I left feeling like I was floating on a cloud, I definitely recommend this place!

    It was my second time at Tension Tamers. It was very easy to book online, with plenty of useful information available about the massages and the therapists. They are conveniently located in the city center, easy to reach by foot or public transport. The place is clean, has a relaxing atmosphere, and the massage tables are very comfortable. The staff are very nice and welcoming. I booked a 90 min, deep tissue/trigger point massage. It's a bit pricy but well worth it. The massage was very professional and relaxing. Before starting, I was asked what issues I had and what I wanted to focus on, as well as sensitivities and what areas I would like to avoid. I highly recommend and will return again.

    Tension Tamers deliver on their promise. All the tension of working non-stop behind a desk and laptop was gone after one session. Michiel is outstanding, he found all the right spots! I highly recommend booking a 1,5hr session with him in their beautiful location on the Lauriergracht 102

    Booked a relaxing massage through classpass and I can only recommend. Annemarie is very attuned, I felt that my body was listened to and given what it needed. The pressure and tempo of massage felt calming, I immediately sensed my nervous system settling and relaxing. Thank you.

    I really like this place and their approach to their clients. They have this wholistic approach that the relaxation doesn’t end with body only but also with mind. Went there for the second time for sports massage and left very relaxed and satisfied. I highly recommend booking with Nathan. He’s not only expert at massage but also gently says few words that inspire you to understand whatever you’re seeking to understand with yourself. Also great music choices! I gifted a session with Nathan to my friend as well. Money well spent!

    Favourite massage place in Amsterdam. I've had sessions with a few of the therapists there, it's always been a great experience. A lot of other places feel like ticking the box exercise, but a massage here will leave you truly restored and revived.

    I had a great session with Panos. He was recommended by my Pilates teacher and really got to understanding where I needed the most attention right away

  • 5/5 Alissa K. 1 year ago on Google
    Best massage I have ever had! clean and beautiful facility. I have had many massages in my life and Panos deserves to be recognized for amazing talents. Even when we move back to America, I'll be scheduling massages when we visit.

    100% recommend Tension Tamers. Their space is incredibly peaceful and safe, each of the therapists are trained and specialize in various things so you can definitely find what you’re looking for. (Side note - Leander is fantastic and has found the root of my issues. Super grateful to have come across his work! ⭐️)

    I went for a deep tissue massage and I had the most relaxed afternoon in 3 years. I'll gladly tip next time, ashamed I didn't the first time. Beautiful atmosphere, felt safe and comfortable at all times. Wonderful experience, 10/10 would do it again

    I always thought I don’t like massages but turns out I just hadn’t been to the right place yet. I first went to Tension Tamers during my pregnancy and Nathan really changed my opinion on massages. I came back several times postpartum and it’s always a super relaxing experience!

    Great experience at Tension Tamers! I had a very relaxing massage in a clean and calm atmosphere. Panos is very professional, competent and patient as my back & neck were not ready yet to relax :) Also appreciate the advices and home-exercise to improve my posture and my body health! Thank you!

    Had a wonderful sport massage with Jose in preparation for my IRONMAN Triathlon! Jose is very experienced and knew exactly what my body needed. Directly made a second appointment and will come back many more times! Place is very clean, tidy and peaceful and definitely will give you the rest you're looking for!

    Great massage with Michiel. He really knew what my body needed and how to work on and release the tension. His manner makes you feel very relaxed and at ease. Don’t hesitate to book an appointment.

    I had deep tissue massage by Michiel. It was so good, felt like another level of massages that i never got it before. Especially he touched every tension i had, if you have a lot of tension in your body, this is the right place to release it.

    You know you have found a safe space and great people to interact with, when you are looking forward to your massage slot. From the friendliness of the staff and the good first impression to the deep conversations and care I receive, every time is really worth it here :) Panos has been a great source of information and knowledge sharing and has definitely helped me a lot this far. Totally recommend !

    I enjoyed a very good deep tissue & cupping massage from Panos. He treated my shoulders and neck in a way I was never treated before and it was so effective. I had no pain in my neck anymore! He really felt precisely where and how treatment was needed in my body. Thank you Panos.

    Just perfect massage every time. I have had massages both by Jose and Marrit and they are both incredibly knowledgeable and super professional. Both me and my husband will keep coming back for deep tissue massages. Look no further than this studio, amazing experience!

    I highly recommend Tension Tamers. My experience with Jose has been a real gift. He was there with his hands and his heart and he allowed me to reach a level of relaxation and peace that brought me lasting benefits far beyond the massage. The atmosphere is beautiful and calming. Jose puts you at ease and knows how to calibrate the message by customizing it based on your preferences and needs. Also the unexpressed ones. Highly recommended (and a big thank you).

    Received a super massage session from Michiel. Including a 'Chi Nei Tsang'. This was very intense and also welcome. Later I experienced a lot of energy and peace. The massage was perfect for me in the moment: powerful, earthy, no frills or floating. Just nice in my body. Solid, clear. Michiel's touch feels true and supportive. After this session 'something' changed in me: more energy, more clarity in my head. I feel grounded and strong. Thanks Michiel... you came by at exactly the right time! I know where to go for some decisiveness in my life....

    Tension Tamers name speaks for itself. Amazing deep tissue massage by Nathan. Clean, neat, and atmospheric facility ensures 100% relaxation. Highly recommend it to anyone!

  • 5/5 SonoMonia 1 year ago on Google
    I was urgently looking for a massage and came across Tension Tamers and their great reviews. Luckily I was able to book a spot with short notice. The session with Nathan lived up to the expectations! He was able to quickly identify the issues on my back and focused on releasing all the tension. He is professional and friendly. I will be back soon!

  • 4/5 Rania M. 8 months ago on Google
    I had an unpleasant and frustrating experience during my first massage, which I put in my initial review. Then someone from the studio reached out to me directly to hear my story with compassion and understanding. She was kind enough to offer me a solution by allowing me to try again with a different therapist and committed to addressing the issue with the initial therapist. A few days later, she got back to me to let me know of their discussion, how the topic was addressed, and how it was received by the therapist. In spite my initial bad experience, I feel that all necessary steps were taken to rectify the situation.

    I had a prenatal massage with Laura. She is very attentive, firm hands yet gentle touch. I’ve also had a deep tissue with Michiel in the past, also recommended.

    Jose was amazing! I had a lot of soreness in my body after long travels and he was able to massage the heaviness away. Will definitely come back next time in in beautiful Amsterdam!

  • 5/5 Miray M. 1 year ago on Google
    Honestly one of the best massages I've ever had. Emma was absolutely wonderful and professional. So clean, location is brilliant and honestly if it wasn't, I would travel for this massage. Thanks for fixing my aches and pains.

    I've had several massages at Tension Tamers. I recently had a prenatal massage with Laura and it was an incredibly relaxing experience. Laura's touch was pleasantly firm, which helped relieve tension and ease the discomfort in my shoulders I didn't even know I had! I recommend you to go to Tension Tamers, lovely place with kind and warm hearted people

    I have done many massages in my life but Nathan gave me the best and most effective one I have ever experienced. After just one session my lower back area and spine have gained so much flexibility and the structural pain has dramatically reduced. I will definitely be back!
