Cancel Massage Heights: The Right Way
How to cancel massage heights membership in canada and reclaim your wellness budget
Understanding massage heights and why you might cancel
Massage Heights operates as a membership-based wellness franchise across Canada, offering recurring monthly plans for scheduled massages and complementary services like aromatherapy. You sign up through their mobile app, website, or directly at individual retreat locations. Each franchise operates semi-independently, which means cancellation methods and refund policies can vary by location. If your membership no longer fits your lifestyle, budget, or wellness goals, you have the right to cancel-and Stopee is here to walk you through every step.
Why canadians cancel massage heights
Common reasons include financial constraints, lack of time to use monthly massages, relocation, or dissatisfaction with service quality at your local retreat. Some members discover they purchased a longer contract (12-month, 6-month, or 3-month) that binds them to higher monthly fees than they expected. Others find that the massage frequency doesn't align with their actual needs. Whatever your reason, cancelling promptly prevents unwanted charges and protects your account.
Your consumer rights in canada
Under Canada's consumer protection laws, you have the right to cancel memberships and subscription services within specific timeframes. Most provinces enforce a cooling-off period-typically 14 days for distance purchases (online or phone)-during which you can withdraw without penalty. Additionally, if Massage Heights uses deceptive marketing or fails to disclose contract terms clearly, you may qualify for a full refund regardless of notice period. Stopee recommends documenting your original purchase email and contract terms before initiating cancellation.
Massage heights membership pricing and plan structure
Your cancellation strategy depends partly on which plan you purchased and how long you committed to the membership.
| Plan name | Monthly cost (CAD) | Contract length | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Foundation membership (12-month) | $79.99 | 12 months | One 60-minute massage monthly with complimentary aromatherapy |
| Elevated One (12-month) | $89.99 | 12 months | One 60-minute massage monthly plus one Elevation service |
| 6-month membership | $89.99 | 6 months | One 60-minute massage monthly with complimentary aromatherapy |
| 3-month membership | $99.99 | 3 months | One 60-minute massage monthly with complimentary aromatherapy |
| Month-to-month plan | $109.99 | Ongoing (month-to-month) | One 60-minute massage monthly with complimentary aromatherapy and flexibility |
Notice the inverse relationship: shorter commitments cost more per month, while longer-term memberships offer discounted monthly rates. If you locked into a 12-month plan at $79.99 per month, early cancellation may trigger early termination fees or withhold refunds for remaining months. Review your original purchase confirmation email to confirm your contract length.
How to cancel your massage heights membership
The cancellation method depends entirely on how you purchased your membership-app store, website, or in person at a retreat.
Cancel through apple app store (iOS)
If you subscribed via your iPhone or iPad, Apple handles billing and you must cancel through Apple's system.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your Apple ID at the top of the screen.
- Select Subscriptions.
- Locate and tap Massage Heights (if it appears in your list).
- Tap Cancel subscription.
- Confirm the cancellation by following the on-screen prompts.
Pro tip: If Massage Heights doesn't appear in your Subscriptions list, your membership was purchased directly through the Massage Heights website or in person-skip to the "In-person or website membership" section below.
Cancel through google play store (Android)
Android users subscribed through Google Play must cancel via the Google Play app on their device.
- Open the Google Play app on your Android phone or tablet.
- Tap your profile icon (top right corner).
- Select Payments and subscriptions.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- Choose Massage Heights from the list.
- Tap Cancel subscription and confirm.
Warning: Google Play cancellations typically take effect at the end of your current billing cycle-charges will not stop immediately. Check your billing date in the app to know when you'll stop being charged.
Cancel an in-person or website membership
Memberships purchased directly at a Massage Heights retreat or through their website require written cancellation notice. This method carries the most weight with franchise operators and protects you with proof of delivery.
- Prepare a written cancellation request that includes:
- Your full name and member ID number (found on your membership card or confirmation email)
- Your phone number and email address
- The date you want your membership to end (typically 30 days from the date you submit the request, per franchise agreements)
- A clear statement: "I hereby cancel my Massage Heights membership effective [date]"
- Choose your delivery method:
- Registered/certified mail (recommended): Send your written request via Canada Post registered mail (raccomandata A/R) to your local retreat address or the corporate address (see "Cancellation address" section below). Keep the proof-of-delivery receipt.
- Hand-delivery: Visit your retreat in person and deliver the letter directly to the manager. Request a signed and dated receipt confirming they received your cancellation request.
- Keep a copy of your cancellation letter for your records.
- Monitor your account and billing statements to confirm no further charges appear after the 30-day notice period expires.
Pro tip: Most franchise agreements require 30 days' written notice. By submitting your cancellation request early (at the start of a billing month), you avoid paying for an extra month you don't use.
Cancel via email or phone (lower success rate)
You can attempt to cancel via email or phone, but Stopee cautions that many consumers report Massage Heights directs them back to written notice anyway.
- Email your local retreat manager or use help@massageheights.com with your member details and cancellation request.
- Call your local retreat directly and request the cancellation process. Ask for the manager's name and the date you called.
- If the retreat denies your cancellation or asks you to commit longer, follow up in writing (registered mail) with a formal cancellation letter.
Warning: Phone or email cancellations leave no audit trail. If the company claims it never received your request, you have no proof. Always back up phone and email requests with registered mail to protect yourself.
What happens after you cancel your massage heights membership
Cancelling your membership creates a gap between submission and the effective end date-and understanding what happens during that time prevents billing surprises.
The cancellation notice period
Most Massage Heights franchise agreements require 30 days' written notice before your membership ends. This means you'll continue to be charged during the notice period unless your cancellation request specifies a retroactive effective date (which is rarely granted). Your final payment typically posts 30 days after the company acknowledges your cancellation.
Using your remaining credits
If you prepaid for services or have unused massage sessions remaining, you have a limited window to redeem them. Some retreats allow you to use credits until your membership end date; others impose a time limit (for example, 30 days post-cancellation). Contact your local retreat to confirm their redemption policy and schedule any remaining appointments before your membership expires.
Account data retention
Massage Heights retains your account information-profile, appointment history, and payment records-for compliance and franchise administration purposes. If you want your data removed or want details on what the company stores, send a formal request to your local retreat or the corporate office requesting your privacy information under applicable provincial privacy laws.
Will you receive a refund after cancelling
Refund eligibility depends on your contract, your province, and how long you used the membership before cancelling.
Prorated refunds for unused months
If you subscribed to a multi-month plan (6 or 12 months) and cancel early, you may qualify for a prorated refund of unused months. For example, if you paid $479.94 for a 6-month membership at $79.99 per month and cancelled after 3 months, you've used half the service and prepaid for the other half. Some Massage Heights locations honour prorated refunds; others apply early termination penalties that reduce or eliminate your refund.
Cooling-off period refunds (14 days)
Canadian consumer protection laws typically grant you a 14-day cooling-off period for distance purchases (online, phone, or app). If you purchased your Massage Heights membership remotely and cancel within 14 days, you're entitled to a full refund regardless of early termination clauses. Keep your purchase receipt and cancellation confirmation to support a cooling-off claim.
Why refunds are delayed or denied
Massage Heights does not publish a transparent, Canada-wide refund policy on its public website. Many franchises withhold refunds citing early termination fees, administrative costs, or contract fine print. Stopee has seen members wait 6-8 weeks for refund approvals or receive partial refunds with no explanation. If the company denies your refund, escalate in writing and reference your provincial Consumer Protection Act.
Escalating refund disputes
If Massage Heights refuses a refund you believe you're entitled to, file a complaint with your provincial consumer protection authority:
- Ontario: ServiceOntario (ontario.ca/consumer)
- British Columbia: Office of the Superintendent of Real Estate (OSRE) or BC Consumer Protection Awareness
- Alberta: Fair Trading Act enforcement
- Quebec: Office du Protecteur du Consommateur (OPC)
- Other provinces: Check your provincial government website for consumer protection contact details
Provide the authority with your purchase agreement, cancellation confirmation, and documentation of refund denial. These agencies have authority to compel refunds and levy penalties against non-compliant businesses.
Common mistakes members make when cancelling
Many Canadians inadvertently extend their Massage Heights membership or forfeit refunds by overlooking simple but critical steps.
Relying on verbal cancellation promises
Calling your local retreat and speaking to a staff member who says "your cancellation is approved" feels final-but without written confirmation, the company can claim it never received your request. Always follow up verbal cancellations with a registered mail letter or email that you can screenshot and archive.
Cancelling through the wrong channel
If you purchased through the app, cancelling in person at the retreat won't stop app-based billing. Conversely, if you signed up in person, the app store can't process your cancellation. Verify exactly how you were charged (check your credit card or payment app) and cancel through that same channel.
Missing the 30-day notice window
Submitting your cancellation request on day 25 of your billing month means you pay for the full next month even though you're cancelling halfway through. Submit cancellation requests on or near your billing date (the date your monthly charge posts) to minimize unused paid time.
Not keeping proof of delivery
If you send a cancellation letter by regular mail with no tracking, the franchise can dispute ever receiving it. Registered mail costs a few extra dollars but provides proof of delivery that protects you in refund disputes or chargebacks.
Forgetting to use remaining credits
You lose unused massage sessions and aromatherapy credits after your membership ends. Schedule your remaining appointments as soon as you submit your cancellation request to maximize the value you've already paid for.

When to keep your massage heights membership (and when to cancel)
Before you cancel, consider whether a temporary pause or plan change makes more sense.
Reasons to keep your membership
- You're within the first 14 days of purchase (you can still invoke a cooling-off refund).
- You committed to a 12-month plan at the discounted $79.99 rate; cancellation penalties may exceed your refund.
- You're on a month-to-month plan ($109.99) and can cancel anytime without notice.
- Your local retreat offers membership pauses or freezes during extended absences.
- You use at least one massage per month and the membership saves you money versus pay-as-you-go pricing.
Clear reasons to cancel
- You haven't used a massage in 3+ months and don't plan to resume.
- You're paying for a longer-term membership (6 or 12 months) at a rate higher than you'd pay month-to-month.
- You've relocated or no longer have access to your local Massage Heights retreat.
- You can redeem a prorated refund for unused months within 30 days.
- Your financial situation has changed and you need to cut discretionary expenses.
Cancellation address and corporate contact information
Send registered mail cancellations or formal complaints to:
Massage Heights corporate headquarters:
13750 U.S. Highway 281 North
Suite 230
San Antonio, TX 78232
USA
Alternatively, cancel at your local retreat: Look up your Massage Heights location on their website or Google Maps, call the retreat directly, and ask for the manager's mailing address or physical address. Sending your cancellation to the local franchise may result in faster processing than the U.S. corporate office.
Email contact (if available): help@massageheights.com
Pro tip: Include your member ID, phone number, and email address on all cancellation correspondence so the company can match your request to your account quickly.
Empower yourself: your next steps
Cancelling a membership you no longer need is a straightforward but detail-sensitive process-and Stopee (stopee.com) has helped thousands of Canadian consumers navigate exactly this situation. The most important step is matching your cancellation method to your purchase channel (app store, website, or in-person) and keeping proof of your cancellation request. Within 30 days of submission, your membership will end and unwanted charges will stop.
If Massage Heights delays your refund, denies a cooling-off period claim, or continues charging after cancellation, don't hesitate to escalate to your provincial consumer protection authority. You have legal rights-your province's Consumer Protection Act exists to enforce them. Stopee recommends keeping copies of all cancellation documents, billing statements, and company communications for at least one year. Whether you're taking a wellness break, tightening your budget, or switching to a different service, cancelling on your own terms is always your choice. Visit Stopee (stopee.com) anytime you need clarity on cancellation rights, refund timelines, or next steps for consumer disputes.
