A friend and I have used this place many times over the years. It's been good in the past but this…read moretime around it was surprisingly and disappointingly terrible. The staff was unprofessional, bathroom needed cleaning, and the massage was mediocre. During our massage, the two masseuses kept talking to each other loudly in Chinese. No idea what was being said but it wasn't relaxing. After the massage, we paid in cash (as they prefer) and the staff promptly and loudly demanded a minimum 20% tip. They were unapologetic about it. Maybe new ownership? Anyway, we won't be going back.

My boyfriend and I stopped in one afternoon while on PTO since it was just down the road from where…read morewe were staying. We were looking for a relaxing hour, and for the price, it got the job done... but it wasn't an experience I'd necessarily seek out again. The vibe was a little different than most places I've been. You pay before your service (and tip afterward), which threw me off a bit, and the overall experience felt more transactional than welcoming. There wasn't much interaction beyond getting us checked in and started. My boyfriend opted for a massage and thought it was fine--not amazing, not bad, just okay. I went with the 60-minute foot reflexology. The foot portion was actually really good and exactly what I was hoping for. As is typical with reflexology, part of the session included an arm and shoulder massage, but this one was a little too enthusiastic. I left wondering if my arms were going to stay attached. A gentler touch would've gone a long way lol... The reflexology area was a large room with multiple chair/beds per usual at a place like this, though I happened to be the only person there during my visit, while the massage rooms were private (per usual). Overall, if you're looking for an affordable massage or reflexology session, this place will do the trick. It just lacked that relaxing, welcoming atmosphere that makes me excited to come back. I'm not opposed to returning, but I also wouldn't go out of my way to do so.

My reflexology this morning was a 3, but I decided on a 2 star based on the interaction when I…read morearrived: I had searched Yelp for reflexology and decided to give a call because it is just a few miles away, and the "early bird" special Mon-Thursday 10-2 looked like a good thing for my first time in. I wasn't sure if I needed an appointment so I called at 10am this morning (Thursday) and asked if I could get a one hour foot massage right away? Nice woman who answered the phone said yes and to come on in...I was pretty happy. I arrived less than 15 minutes later and said that I had just called and what I would like. The man at the desk asked if I was going to use cash or credit, I said cash and asked about the early bird discount; he said there was no discount. It's not about the $4.50 off, but since it is prominently advertised on the website - moving banner ad on top AND the "specials" tab - is it really just a way of getting people in early? I said "OK, but it is on your website"... he said NO. Alrighty then, but 2 photos attached to show that it is! Massage itself was nice, but I would have loved a hand towel to cover the pillow I was leaning against. I realized that I had just showered and washed my hair, and who knows how old that pillow was? I tipped him 20%, barely got a thank you and out I went. If I really needed it I would return with lower expectations AND my own towel to lie on!

Credit cards take out fees from their tip and they probably take ages to make it to the right person. These workers have bills to pay, family's at home, no health benefits, and basically just wait for walk ins most of the day. Sorry Adam but your 20$ tip once a month ain't sh*t. So drop the credit card fees (why the hell would you pay with a credit card when you know cash is preferred at places like this? It's common sense). Pay cash and pay If you don't like it go back to the 100$ + tip massages elsewhere ok rant over , I think this place is legit, good massages, and no frills just as AI describes. Pay cash!

I've been coming to this location for about 5 years. Yes, the hourly rate is very underpriced…read morebecause it's expected to be made up with a large tip. Overall, very cheap and usually a pretty good massage. The masseuses don't speak very much English but that's not usually been an issue. I've had fine experiences except for my recent visit, which I feel obligated to share about so others don't go through the same thing. I asked for a deep tissue massage. It was probably the deepest massage I've ever gotten. Partway through, I could feel my skin starting to react to some oil. Then the masseuse Gail brought something out which felt like a rod and she kept pushing it against where my spine meets my neck. It was starting to get painful and overkill but then the hour was up. After the appointment, she kept saying my shoulder skin was very hard - when I felt it, I realized the whole area was simply swollen (perhaps an allergic reaction). Maybe that's what she interpreted that as a muscle issue - which she should have known better about - and that's why she went to town with the painful wooden stick (again, way too many times). I still paid $70 because she clearly worked hard. I went home and immediately saw my back was red, bruised, swollen, and my neck area had some sticky pus-y rash. I iced it for hours. Over the next two days, my neck area became infected with what is likely a second degree skin burn, according to a medical doctor friend. I've never asked for a refund for a massage before, but this time I tried. When I went back to the location, the one woman there would not give me any phone number when I tried to explain the issue and just kept repeating "make appointment online" before shutting the door. It was at first difficult to get through to any management to make a complaint - their local phone numbers, etc. only asked for a voicemail. EDIT: Management reached out to me via call that same day and they were able to offer me a refund. It's usually comp'd as a free massage for next time but they accommodated my request for a check since I will not be visiting Massage Ultra again. Overall, the masseuses do a good job and it is definitely worth the price. Beware of communication issues though so hopefully this type of accident doesn't happen to you.

Because it was the…read morefirst thing in a while that helped my back pain, I immediately scheduled another appt for the next week with the woman who gave me my massage. On the day of the appointment, I was asked to come in earlier. I wasn't able to, but said I could come in later. She agreed. I made the mistake of assuming it would be with the same person, I was wrong. The massage was just ok, it did not hit any of the same spots as the massage by the first woman, and I honestly left feeling upset and more tense than when I got there. I realize this is a first world problem, but I don't spend money on myself often. Not to mention it did nothing to help my pain, the whole reason I booked a second appointment.

Mandarin Healing Spa's good reviews were promising but the massage was one of the worst I've had in recent memory. First, my masseuse was extremely rough, almost sloppy, in terms of technique. There were several parts where she was just raking her elbow or her fist on my back mechanically instead of working out the knots/kinks. I'm not necessarily looking for Mandarin Oriental-level of care but I didn't care for the sensation of feeling like a dummy being whaled on. And I mean that literally - she was actually punching me at one point. Hygiene was also an issue. From the constant sniffles, it sounded like she had a cold and even sneezed but kept right on going (here's hoping she sneezed into her elbow and not on her hands ... still, you should go wash your hands). The bed itself was not comfortable. Again, not expecting a ton out of a no-frills spot but I do prefer not to have particle board under the head rest digging into my cheek. When I checked the mirror afterwards, I had a lovely vertical indent going down my face. The interaction at the end left an incredibly bad taste in my mouth. They're incredibly insistent that you pay the tip, if not the whole amount, in cash, which I can understand with very small businesses but I also would've appreciated a heads-up on the phone when I booked that using a credit card adds an extra $3.75 to the cost. Also, the manager was very pushy in asking for a 25% tip ($20 for a mediocre 60-minute $80 massage) and kept saying how most customers do $20 for an even $100. Regardless of how true that may be, a customer should be allowed to tip however much they want based on the experience they received, and, if it weren't for my desperation to take a shower and wash the germs off me, I would have stood firm. I've never had someone outright demand a higher tip and it was enough to make me never want to go back. Waste of $100.

I also had a 30 minutes combo and they ended 5 minutes early. Then I go to pay (no cash discount as mentioned on the website was brought up) and then they are arguing with me and basically yelling at me in another language about how much I am tipping. They made me tip a certain amount - did not let me choose my tip- and then when I didn't have exact change they were angry and annoyed with me and finally gave me change. You also can't communicate with them at all anyways because of the language barrier but that was not my issue. My issue was the rushed session, the required amount of tip (a tip at any service place is always optional and up to the customer!) and then the literal rolling of eyes and annoyance when I didn't have exact change even though they did indeed have a change to give me. And just to be clear, I was going to leave a tip but it was $1 less than what they wanted and they wouldn't accept it.
