REVIEW · ATHENS
120 minutes Full Body Relaxing Massage + Head Massage + Feet Massage For Couples
The best feature here is the private room for two, where each person has a masseur and you can relax together without joining a larger group. I like the clear three-part treatment: one hour for the body, then focused work on the head and feet.
I also like the downtown Athens location and the chance to request your preferred pressure. The main caution is consistency. Several people praised the professional staff and soothing treatment, but one person reported excessive pressure and a poor overall experience. Confirm your booking directly before you set out.
Key points at a glance

- Three treatments in one visit: Each person receives 60 minutes of full-body massage, followed by 30 minutes of head massage and 30 minutes of foot massage.
- Private couples setting: Only your pair takes part, with two masseurs working at the same time.
- Pressure is adjustable: Tell your masseur clearly if you prefer light, medium, or firmer pressure.
- Central Athens meeting point: The studio is at Imittou 225, near public transportation.
- Everything needed is supplied: Clean towels, massage oil, and bottled water are included.
- Weekday timing only: Sessions are listed from Monday through Friday, 12:30 PM to 6:30 PM.
What the two-hour Athens massage actually includes

This is a long treatment, not a quick back rub squeezed between museum visits. Each person receives a full 120 minutes, divided into three parts:
- 60 minutes of full-body relaxing massage
- 30 minutes of head massage
- 30 minutes of foot massage
The two-hour structure matters. A shorter treatment often gives you just enough time to settle down before it ends. Here, the first hour gives your body time to release some of the stiffness that can build up during a day of walking around Athens.
The session is designed for two people booking together. You can come as a couple, with a friend, or with a family member. Two masseurs work in the private room, one for each person, so you do not have to take turns.
You do not need to bring towels or oil. Those are supplied, along with bottled water. Food, drinks beyond the bottled water, and transportation are not included.

Starting with the 60-minute full-body treatment
The full-body portion comes first and lasts one hour. Its purpose is straightforward: reduce stress and relax tired muscles after sightseeing.
That timing suits Athens well. A day spent walking between the Acropolis, Plaka, Syntagma Square, and other central sights can leave your back, shoulders, and legs feeling used up. You can ask for the pressure you want, which is especially important if you are carrying tension or prefer a gentler treatment.
Be specific before the massage begins. Say if you want light pressure, medium pressure, or stronger work. Also point out any sensitive area. The information provided says pressure is available by request, but one person later found the back treatment too hard. That tells me you should not simply assume the masseur will know your preference.
The strongest praise centers on the combination of pressure, room, and therapists. Another positive account describes the massage as exactly what was needed after a full day of walking, with friendly and professional staff. Those comments support the idea that this works best as a recovery stop, not just as a luxury add-on.
Still, a massage is personal. A technique that leaves one person feeling loose may leave another feeling sore. If your back is tender, make that clear at the start and speak up during the session.
The 30-minute head massage

The head massage follows the full-body work and lasts half an hour. This is a generous amount of time for a head-focused treatment, especially when added to a full hour of body massage.
The stated aim is relaxation through the head and brain, with attention to circulation and scalp comfort. It is also described as potentially helpful for headaches. You should treat that as a general benefit, not a medical promise.
This part may appeal to you if sightseeing has left you mentally tired as well as physically stiff. Athens can be hot, noisy, and busy, particularly during a long day outdoors. A quiet half-hour focused on the head can feel different from conventional bodywork.
If you dislike pressure around the scalp, temples, or neck, say so before the treatment starts. The same pressure discussion applies here as it does to the full-body portion. You are not locked into one style for the entire two hours.
Finishing with the 30-minute foot massage
The final half-hour is devoted to the feet. That is a sensible ending for a day of city sightseeing, since your feet often take the heaviest beating.
The treatment is presented as a way to relax and restore a sense of energy balance. In practical terms, it gives your feet focused attention rather than treating them as a small part of the full-body session.
I like the order of the package. You first settle the body, then move to the head, and finish with the feet. By the final section, you have had time to slow down and stop thinking about your schedule.
You might prefer to book this near the end of your sightseeing day. However, the available hours are limited to weekdays from 12:30 PM to 6:30 PM. That means an early afternoon or late afternoon appointment is more realistic than an evening treatment after dinner.

The private room and shared experience

The private-room arrangement is the clearest reason to choose this over a standard individual massage. Only your group takes part, and both people receive treatment at the same time.
That makes the experience suitable for couples who want to unwind together, but it also works for two friends or family members. You do not need to sit in a common area waiting for one person to finish.
The private setting does not mean the massage is customized in every possible way. The confirmed details cover the three treatments, the two masseurs, and the ability to request pressure. If you need a particular technique or have an injury, ask before booking or at the start of the appointment.
The strongest positive feedback praises the room and therapists together. That is useful because a massage depends on more than technique. Privacy, clean supplies, and a calm setting affect how quickly you relax.
There is also a caution here. One poor account described the experience as unprofessional and complained about the surroundings, noise, oil, and pressure. The provider’s response was defensive, which does not erase the complaint. With only five published ratings and an overall score of 3.8 out of 5, I would treat this as a promising but not risk-free choice.
Location at Imittou 225
The meeting point is Imittou 225, Athina 116 32, Greece. The studio is described as being near public transportation, and the experience ends back at the same location.
You arrange your own way there. Hotel pickup, hotel drop-off, and other transportation are not included, so allow time to reach the address. A mobile ticket is provided, which is useful when you are already carrying a phone rather than a printed voucher.
The location is convenient for independent visitors who want to plan the appointment around their own day. It is less convenient if you want a driver to collect you from your hotel or return you afterward.
Check the address carefully before leaving. One account reported that a reservation had not been passed on correctly to the massage provider. The practical lesson is simple: contact the provider and confirm that your appointment is recorded, especially if you are booking close to the date or arranging the session as a gift.
The experience is provided by Theodores Private Tours, also listed as Theodores Travel. The massage studio is described as meeting Greek Ministry of Health and European Union requirements, with licensed professional staff.
Timing, advance booking, and value
The price is $116.36 per person, or $232.72 for two people before any separate transport costs. That is not a budget massage, but it covers four hours of combined treatment time for the couple, since each person receives two hours.
For you, the value depends on how much you want a long, private recovery session. If you only want a quick foot massage, this package is more than you need. If both people want a full treatment after several demanding sightseeing days, the cost is easier to justify.
The price includes all fees and taxes, clean towels, massage oil, and bottled water. You are not expected to buy basic supplies separately. Meals, other drinks, and transport are outside the price.
The experience is booked an average of 23 days ahead, so I would not leave it until the last minute if your Athens schedule is fixed. Weekday hours are also narrow, running from 12:30 PM to 6:30 PM. Confirm the exact operating date when booking, since the stated availability runs through June 16, 2026.
Free cancellation is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the local start time. If you cancel later, the payment is not refunded, and changes made inside that 24-hour window are not accepted.
What the feedback tells you about quality
The positive side is clear. Three of the five ratings awarded four or five stars. The praise focuses on relaxing treatment, helpful staff, professional masseurs, suitable pressure when requested, and the usefulness of the session after walking around Athens.
One person called the massage experience fantastic in every major area, including the room and pressure. Another described the staff as friendly and professional. A French-language account also found the massage relaxing and the masseurs professional, despite a booking communication problem.
The negative side should not be ignored. One person reported back pain the next day and felt the service was unprofessional. The complaint also raised concerns about music, the surrounding setting, and not knowing the oil in advance.
That is a small and mixed sample. It does not prove that the session will be excellent or poor for you. It does show why you should communicate clearly, verify the reservation, and avoid booking if you need a highly specialized medical or therapeutic treatment.
The most reliable expectation is a conventional relaxation massage with three sections, delivered by two licensed masseurs in a private room. Do not book it expecting a clinical assessment, hotel pickup, or a custom medical therapy plan.
Who should book this experience
I would consider it a good fit for:
- Two people who want to be treated at the same time
- Couples or friends recovering from long days on foot
- You if you prefer a private room rather than a shared spa area
- People who want body, head, and foot work in one appointment
- Independent visitors comfortable reaching Imittou 225 on their own
- Anyone able to schedule during weekday afternoon or early evening hours
It may not suit you if you need weekend availability, late-night appointments, hotel transportation, or a very specific therapeutic technique. It is also a poor match if you are unlikely to speak up about pressure during the massage.
If either person has a known injury, severe back sensitivity, or a medical condition, ask the provider whether the treatment is appropriate before paying. The available information describes relaxation massage, not medical care.
Should you book the private Athens massage?
Book this if you want a long, shared relaxation break with a friend or partner and the weekday timing works for you. The private room, simultaneous treatment, three-part format, included supplies, and central Athens location make it easy to fit into an independent trip.
I would book with two precautions. First, confirm the reservation directly with Theodores Private Tours before traveling to the studio. Second, tell both masseurs your preferred pressure before the first stroke, then correct it immediately if it feels wrong.
At $116.36 per person, this is best viewed as a two-hour recovery session rather than a cheap activity. The praise for the therapists and relaxing treatment is encouraging, but the mixed 3.8 rating means you should keep your expectations practical. For the right pair, it can be a welcome pause from Athens sightseeing. For anyone seeking guaranteed medical-grade bodywork or total service consistency, choose more cautiously.
