Renessence
Renessence is a haven for wellness junkies. Think: ice baths, cryo rooms, floating, vitamin infusions, acupuncture, saunas, and oxygen cabins. They’re all part of the daily routine here. But that’s not all – you can also book luxurious facials and relaxing massages. Make it a day out and book several treatments.

Equilibrium Massage
Looking for a good massage in Amsterdam city centre? Equilibrium Massage on the Keizersgracht is the place to be. After a brief consultation, you’ll receive a tailored massage, focusing on the areas that need some extra love and care. This place is as good for relaxation as it is for targeted treatments.
Keizersgracht 166A, Amsterdam – massageequilibrium.nl
MarocMaroc
A new gem in Amsterdam: marocMaroc on Van Baerlestraat. Not only will you get an excellent massage here, but you’ll also immerse yourself in pure luxury. It’s simply one of those places where you instantly forget all your worries. Even the massage bed is a treat before the session starts – you’re not lying on a towel but on a fluffy duvet. That alone is reason enough to visit.

The Rub
Hidden among residential homes in Amsterdam South (Rivierenbuurt), you’ll find the discreet massage salon The Rub. It may appear modest from the outside, but inside it’s a hidden gem. This place deserves the spotlight, offering perhaps the best pregnancy massages in Amsterdam. You’re warmly welcomed with a cup of tea and a friendly chat, during which the massage therapist discusses your preferences. Before you know it, you’ll be entirely at ease.

Cowshed Spa
Cowshed Spa is part of Soho House Amsterdam and is locally and internationally renowned. Book a relaxing manicure, facial or massage. The Thai massage is highly recommended – not comparable to others in the city, but certainly to those in Thailand.

Doctor Feelgood
At first glance, Doctor Feelgood looks like a little shop – but at the back you’ll find soundproof treatment rooms. And that’s a plus – you don’t need to hear your neighbour’s massage! Their music selection is also different from the usual: Native American, piano and folk tunes gently play through the speakers at a pleasant volume. From deep tissue to hot stone, relaxing massages, and everything in between – you’ll find what you need here.

Akasha Wellbeing
Akasha Wellbeing is part of the equally stunning Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam South. A wonderful place to unwind, especially if you also enjoy the spa facilities. With a large pool and several saunas, the treatments are almost unmatched. Unsurprisingly, this place has been awarded multiple times as one of the best luxury spas in the Netherlands. It’s well worth a visit.

Het Massagehuys
Het Massagehuys has several locations in Amsterdam, so there’s always one nearby. Their concept is simple but effective: quality massages at a fair price. They describe it as Eastern massages with a Western twist. The Authentic Asian massage is intense – not for the faint-hearted. Upon arrival, you’re invited to sit at a large communal table for tea before the massage therapist takes you in for an hour of pure relaxation.
Multiple locations, Amsterdam – massagehuys.nl
Na Thai
Na Thai is a classic Thai massage salon. Friendly staff, floral towels and authentic Thai massage treatments. This might just be the best Thai massage spot in Amsterdam, located right in the city centre. Prefer a gentler touch? No worries – you can choose from twelve different types of massage.
