Truly disappointed… I brought my girlfriend a year ago for her birthday and we both had a wonderful experience today I tried to call to make an appointment and the phone wasn’t working. It asked me to leave a message so I stopped by to see if they could give me a foot massage. there seem to be only one girl there and she said yes she could give me an hour massage, but while I was receiving my massage, all the doors were open, including the massage room, so there was noise from the street. She kept getting phone calls on her private cell phone and texting while she was massaging me as well as a gentleman came in at one point, and she stopped the massage and went into the corridor laughing and silent was gone for a while and then came back, so it was not in the least, a relaxing refreshing much needed self-care massage as what I had envisioned. I was just about to stand up and walk out, but I stayed and ended up paying full price, but I won’t be returning. If they are going to be open they should have more people on staff or she should’ve told me that she couldn’t provide me the quality of massage that would give me the rest and restoration that most of us envision when we visit a place to receive so much needed pampering.

Fabulous darling, just fabulous!!! Everyone working here was courteous and professional. They provided a clean sterile environment, they were accommodating to our needs and requests. I felt very comfortable and even cared for by these phenomenal ladies. I will most definitely return for continued superior service.

Absolutely love. It was my first time coming here. I haven’t gotten a massage in years. I had a stroke a few months ago and unable to use half my body for awhile, my other half had become really sore from taking all the weight even as I slowly regain strength. The massage also helped with my muscle spasms on my weakened side . It was definitely needed and have found my new go to spot ❤️

I get massages often and this was the best place yet. Really went for my stubborn knots. The prices are reaaaally good, the place was super clean, and people were extremely nice. You can tip with card if you don’t have cash.

I recently experienced a persistent back strain that not only caused discomfort in my back but also radiated to my quads, making daily activities a challenge. Seeking relief, I turned to the expertise of Amy, a professional massage therapist. Her exceptional massage therapy not only provided me with immediate comfort but also offered long-lasting relief. The establishment is clean with private parking and friendly staff! Thank you xie xie.

Please don’t waste your time or money here. You get what you pay for. I appreciate that my masseuse did her best in a bad situation but it was freezing (and I did ask for it to be warmer, several times), there were many, many interruptions, where people were coming in and out of the spa and she was the only person there who spoke English at the time and therefore had to be the one to check everyone in and interpret for the other masseuses, but it made the experience very disjointed and not relaxing, and then to be honest, the massage itself wasn’t great. Like it was just very clear to me that she wasn’t professionally trained in any way, like it seemed more like someone had shown her, but not like she really trained professionally, and I had to keep asking her to do the same things over and over and pointing to the area I wanted her to work on, only for her to work on it for a minute and then go back to whatever she was doing before. I also had ask her not to go so hard on my bones and focus on my muscles, which seems like a pretty basic message tenement. At several times, she mistook my bones for knots and went really hard. While I did ask her to go hard, I didn’t mean go hard on my bones and it was painful and I had to keep asking her to not go so hard on my bones. I will give it to her, she really seemed like she was trying and I’m not trying to be mean, I do believe she tried her best, it just wasn’t very good. On top of it, she made several comments about my appearance, from telling me how thin my hair is (I have a hormonal condition and it’s a sore spot of mine that I’m already well aware of), to when talking to me about my recent drastic weight loss, telling me I needed to lose more weight to be beautiful, to assuming I had children because of my body, acting surprised when I said I didn’t and talking about my loose skin from said recent weight loss. I want to say that I don’t think she said any of this to be mean, it just seemed like she didn’t realize how rude and honestly hurtful it was. She also said some nice things about how well I take care of my skin and how smart I was to lose weight. Like it just seemed overall that she didn’t understand that for the most part, it’s not ok to comment, especially negatively, on a stranger’s body. Especially when you’re giving them a massage and they’re naked on a table in front of you. Then as we were walking out, despite how bad the experience was, I was still planning on tipping because it was the polite thing to do and I do believe she tried, just not tipping as well as I might’ve otherwise, and I was expecting to do so at the front desk like all the other places I’ve gone to. So as I walked past her in the hallway toward the entrance and front desk to pay the tip and be done, she thought I was walking out and stiffing her on the tip, and she made sure to ask me about it, like "what, you won’t pay a tip?" Like to me, and I’ve worked for years in various service positions where tips made up a significant portion of my income, but you don’t confront someone about not tipping. You might think less of them and be disappointed about it, but you don’t confront them for a tip. Overall, I had high hopes for this place because of a previous good experience and for the price, I thought it was a great value. I saved up and was looking forward to this for a while but I was sorely disappointed. I will never be coming back. I really wish it had gone differently but after a certain point in the massage, when I had given up on it being relaxing and good, I was consoling myself with the thought that I can always go somewhere else in the future soon when I had more money. That I’ll get a good massage at a more established and reputable place soon. So, while I appreciate how hard I think she was trying and that the circumstances were not her fault, I wouldn’t recommend going here. Save your money and just pay more for a good massage.
