"Great Couples Hot Stone Massage"

Reviewed January 27, 2021

My husband and I called OZassage on a Friday morning after deciding not to ski that day at Big Sky. We were lucky that they had availability for a couples massage midday. We stopped for lunch at Wrap Shack nearby (highly recommend!) before our appointment. After we checked in and filled out some paperwork, we were led to the "relaxation" room in the back, which was a room of these really comfortable chaise loungers and relaxing music. We did a 60 minute hot stone couples massage. Overall the therapists were very attentive to our individual needs and were wonderful. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our massages. Highly recommend!

A great way to end a ski day. 4 of us got massages here & were all super happy happy with our massage therapists! The spa itself is very nice, cozy and relaxing.

"Massage was awesome!"

Reviewed March 17, 2018

This place is a hidden gem in a plaza of stores. Once we located it, my daughter and I each had an hour massage. We had been skiing hard and our therapists were very skilled at easing those sore muscle groups. The steam room prior to the massage was a great suggestion as well.

"Fantastic massage"

Reviewed February 07, 2018

Recently was in big sky doing some skiing. Found OZssage massage and booked appt. had an hour massage scheduled . Was treated by nice therapist, who asked many questions about what areas were problematic, any past injuries, etc. I had a 60 min massage, should've had a 120. The therapist was thorough, applying just the right pressure in the right areas. My massage as fantastic. I was relaxed, refreshed, and felt fantastic afterwards. I would highly recommend OZssage to anyone in the area. One of the best massage I've had.
