Diane the owner is so sweet and accommodating. I had a nice massage with a man for $65 plus tip. I work at a massage school too - victory career college but it's nice to have someone who experienced and not still training. Ty. Will be back! read more

I was hopeful as my excellent regular massage therapist was injured in a car accident so I was looking for something local and affordable. I have heard mixed experienced from locals about Belmont Shore Spa and thought I would at least give it a try because the rates looked very affordable. I originally talked with Diane about a 90-minute deep tissue and at the time 60 was avail for the next day. I booked that for the next day and was told she would send verification to text and it was not received till next day (minor concern). But I got a nervous feel, and I was told many times CASH! That is no problem. Then what seemed like a nice shift.. I was informed Lynn could take me for 90 minutes if I came by right away. And I asked fee and was told $100 cash which is also listed on the website. Great .. easy . I grabbed a $100 and was out the door. Parking was horrible though and I had to walk literally 4 blocks. Upon arriving Diane was friendly and introduced me to Lynn who seemed tense, and non-communicative. I wasn't expecting just curtains and no private rooms which felt mediocre to me but I understand this type of set up is often customary. I undressed and ask Lynn to please use just coconut oil. The massage was incredibly rough and I had to say a few times to go lighter. The experience was horrible.. tense, then she got on top of me and straddled my body digging in. This felt incredibly uncomfortable though I know this is done in some traditions. But it felt unprofessional. To me there is no need to straddle someone on the table. I wondered if this was some Thai sex massage parlor, it made me uncomfortable. When I tried to talk about what I needed and what to do she shushed me for talking. This made me even more uncomfortable- Though some areas of my body did feel looser after the massage. That night I had horrible pain and felt worse. Now I have had massages for over 40 years and NEVER once had this kind of reaction. I still have burning in my shoulder and felt she caused injury. To make matters worse then I went to pay $100 which I was told and she said it was $105. Luckily I had atm which sometimes when paying cash I don't bring ATM. . So felt extremely tacky to atm me for $5. Next I was never asked by Lynn or Dianne if I would like to leave a tip. AND TIPPING IS OPTIONAL!!!!!!!!! Hassling customers for tips is simply unprofessional .. HINT Customers will WANT to tip for exceptional care and service. Before I left I asked some other questions to find Lynn for example is there 9-6 M-F Like seriously? I get it now. This is a sweatshop slumlord style operation where they overwork their massage therapists and probably pay them little. Instead of basic business skills. Then I'm on the Freeway about 15 minutes later and receive a call from Dianne asking where is the tip? Are you serious? How stressful, tacky, unprofessional and just rude. .. Completely unprofessional, miscommunication, misrepresentation on website of fees. SO yes this is one of the cheapest spots in 90803 area code but now I know why. If you want a cheap massage this is your place ===customer beware! I have now talked to two other neighbors that had horrible experiences at this location. This review is on Diane and what I experienced, and the painful and unfriendly massage I had with Lynn. Won't be back, and will tell my friends, to stay away in droves. read more

I highly recommend this establishment for the services they provide. The spa is very nice and clean with a relaxing atmosphere. Diane the owner does a great job in managing this facility. The hourly rate is $65 and the quality of massage was very good. read more

Had a great massage. We were welcomed with water and taken back on time for our massages. I had a great massage but the areas are only curtains. Those who want more privacy might want to see else where. However, again I had a great and affordable massage. read more

They are local on 2 nd street , and very reasonable. I have been very happy every time I go .

Always a terrific place to unwind. The staff is great. Everytime I leave I feel.like I'm walking on air. Friendly and really great price. Discount with cash. read more

This is a great place to destress! I have visited this place a couple of times for massages. It's a great deal for an hour and also recommend paying by cash. You get 10 more minutes under the hours of their happy hour. The vibe is very tranquil, clean and welcoming ! Lynn was my masseuse, and she was extremely professional and knew exactly where my trigger points of stress were and released a lot of that! Wheeew! I left there feeling so much lighter and relaxed! read more

Consider this my new spot! Really good, affordable massage. Several spots and same-day appointments available. Overall calm atmosphere with heated beds. I'll be coming back! read more

Perfect location, fair price and skilled therapists! I am so grateful for this place. Got a 60 min message with hot stones and feel like I am in heaven. Cozy and clean. read more

I had a wonderful relaxing massage with Julia today. She was highly recommended by friends and they were right. This was my first time at this spa. I told Julia that I had two injuries and she was very careful and gentle in those areas. But she also spent some extra time focusing on those areas. I will be back for sure! read more

This place was so warm and inviting. I just had the best massage with Julia! I was so relaxed. She asked what my problem areas were and really got in there! The receptionist was very sweet! Would definitely recommend. read more

Best massage ‍ place for a great price! Close to shopping and restaurants. Feel well taken care of. read more

Can't express how happy and satisfied I am about the service . I've gone about 2-3 prior but today's massage was 10/10 . I told them I had very tight calf's and bad plantar fasciitis. Mike did good work but the owner made sure I was fully satisfied and went above and beyond. Like always very clean environment, respectful, good energy and calm vibes . I wanted to hug her I immediately felt so much lighter and was ready for the best night sleep. Thank you read more

Please note that the massage session begins at your scheduled appointment time--not when the therapist initiates hands-on treatment. I lost at least 10 minutes due to using the restroom, undressing, and waiting for the therapist to enter the room. It would be helpful to clarify this timing policy in advance so clients can plan accordingly. read more

I've been getting my massages at Belmont Shore Spa for years now. Julia is fantastic! She's thorough and has a very healing touch. Such high value at a great price. Professional, clean environment. read more

Depends who you get. My wife loved her massage. Mine was the worst of my life. I would describe it as rushed and jittery. I was scraped by her fingernails a few minutes in which continued. She didn't use enough oil, massages around knotted muscles, and basically squeezed my muscles at such a rapid pace that it made me more tense. I couldn't tell what she was trying to do. I should've stopped the massage and just left. I'm not sure if the person was new or had no training? read more

Julia is incredible. I've had hundreds of massages throughout my life and she is by far one of the best therapists I've ever been to. I really have no complaints about this place. Cash is appreciated, so plan ahead. read more

When you're done frolicking around 2nd street and see a massage place, and think- how perfect is this? Stop on in for superior service, good prices and a nice massage! read more

Belmont Shore Spa was amazing. The quick response for a same-day walk-in and the happy hour special when you pay with cash were impressive. After finishing some shopping and recently hurting my back, we were recommended to try this place. We priced a few places, and this was far more reasonable, especially for the area. We called and got an appointment for later in the afternoon; it couldn't have worked out more perfectly. They asked what we wanted them to focus on, and they did. The hot stones, which came with the happy hour special, felt great. After 70 minutes of bliss, I walked out like I was floating on air. The ladies were so sweet and mentioned they've been at this location for over 18 years. How could I have never been here before? That's about to change. I plan on making it a monthly treat-yourself session, and I recommend you do the same. read more

Great place with great staff. It's comfy and peaceful in here. I recommend Mike and Tom for a great massage!

Will never return here again I came looking to get a good massage like I used to yeara ago I guess they don't do that anymore ! I'm currently receiving the laziest massage I've ever experienced hence why I'm writing this during it ! no pressure she just rubbed oil on me ! Julia is not what they made her to be on the comments do not be fooled. I'm BEYOND DISSATISFIED ! This is horrible I needed this so bad just for it to not be a good experience! read more

Made a same day appointment and had a great massage! Friendly people, excellent massage and nice clean convenient location.

My favorite place for massage. I used to live in Long Beach and have since moved to Huntington Beach. I still drive back to Belmont Shore Spa. Mike and Julia are the best! read more

Had a "deep tissue" massage with Tom and ended up with hematoma. He kept digging and digging while whimpered in pain. I should have stopped him but I went there to get some relief-I ended up in more pain. I think he may have a sadistic side because he kept laughing as he inflicted pain. If you go to this massage place, don't use Tom and don't ask for a deep tissue massage (unless you're a masochist-then atoms your guy). read more

Belmont Shore Spa - Hematoma under my arm from a deep tissue massage. - Massage Near Me - Long Beach, California

See all

Well... I went in because I was heavily stressed. The appointment was pre-booked and paid for. I received Tom (man) although requested a woman. He asked regular or deep tissue? I said regular. I want the one paid for. He said deep tissue more better and proceeded... but I said no I don't want that. So in the end I received an additional up charge for something I didn't want plus bruises. However, the staff was not mean or rude to me. read more

Has a great and relaxing massage with hot stones and towels. Felt much better afterwards. Easy to walk in and make an appointment.

Love this place so much I try to come at least once a month! Mike (relaxing) and Lynn (super deep tissue) are the best. Very reasonably priced and often they do an extra 10 min if you pay in cash! read more

I love coming here! They are super friendly, helpful and cater to your needs. I have been seeing Jennifer for my crippling back pain and she has been empathetic to my pain. I would recommend this place 100%. Thanks for the water after :) read more

Belmont Shore Spa - Didn't want to be a creep taking pics but this is the price menu. - Massage Near Me - Long Beach, California

It was a nice, clean spa. They had heated beds. My massage. Therapist was an older lady. She didn't really apply as much pressure as I hoped for. It felt more like a rub than a massage. The customer service was great. I'm not sure where the disconnect was, but I was told you would get a discount if you pay in cash, however, this is not the case. All in all, I would go back, but try a different massage therapist. read more

I got a 90-minute massage by Annie and it was perfection! I haven't gotten a massage in well over a year due to COVID and this experience was lovely. Well-priced and felt so good to work out all the knots that 2020 caused. Would 100% recommend this spot and will be returning. They also offered a bottle of water when I was paying so I felt hydrated as I drove home! I would say, parking is a little difficult in the area, since it's street parking only, but they were able to help me find a spot! read more

Got charged for a deep tissue massage for service with Kim. Basically had someone pat lotion on me for an hour. Told her my leg was hurting, she then proceeded to sit on it while patting my back for 15 minutes straight, even after I reminded her my calf's were hurting. Thought I'd try this place because I used to be a once weekly customer. Clearly, made a good decision to change, way back when. Needless to say, I'm pissed. Paid the fee because it's mostly folks who do not speak English, but will never be returning back. My husband thought it would be cute to come back, it was not. It was a waste of my money and made me worst coming out. read more

My husband just tried this place tonight and had great massages! I called to see if they had availability for around 7/7:30 and she scheduled us for 7:15. She asked male or female preference and I said no preference, so she said she would give us a discount. We arrived right at 7:15 (parking in Belmont shore can be a challenge), and flagged down the receptionist to check in. My husband was in a room with one wall on the side and 1 curtain, and my room had walls on both sides but they didn't go up to the ceiling and the entry for each of the rooms is just curtains. While it's not great for sound proofing, there's at least privacy. The room decor was simple but nice, there's soothing massage music playing, and when I got into the table, I was pleasantly surprised to discover it was a heated table. I've never experienced that before and it was super nice! The blankets were also soft and cozy, not stale and thin or rough. Teddy gave my massage and although he kept making phlegmy noises (it may be a tick), his pressure was great. He spent a lot of time on my upper back, which was needed. At the end of the massage he told me I was a big girl.... ummm, what?!? Other than that it was a great experience. My husband said Tina gave his massage and he enjoyed his experience as well. When I paid at the end, there was no discount, as offered on the phone, but for $40 each and a $10 tip, we were still pleased with the experience and we'll be back! read more

Belmont Shore Spa, thank you for providing excellent customer service and skilled practitioners that have helped me treat my overworked shoulder and elbow!! I am grateful for the extra 10 minutes option for cash pay which has added to the benefits of my treatment. I have booked last minute and forgot to grab cash ahead of time and still been given the opportunity to run over to the bank to take advantage of the offer. The facilities are lovely and I recommend giving it a try whether you need to relax or put in some work on a specific issue. Looking forward to my next visit for sure! read more

Reliable, professional and affordable spa. Michael is excellent. Diane runs a consistently good place

Super Massage, relaxing in the heart of Belmont Shore. Clean, relaxing, soothing, etc. Friendly staff. read more

My SIL booked me a prenatal massage here a couple of weeks ago which I did not even know was a thing and it was so relaxing! The staff here are also the friendliest I've ever encountered at a massage spa. I've never had a prenatal massage before but they made me feel super comfortable and taken care of. Though the massage is definitely different from one that you can get while lying on your stomach, my stiff neck and shoulders finally got the relief they needed after weeks of discomfort. The best part is that the prenatal massage is not any more expensive than a regular massage! From what I heard, prenatal massages can be very pricey, but not here. I'm super thankful for what they offer here. Would for sure recommend for all the mamas out there. read more

The spa itself was fine and the massage was decent for the price. Where I have an issue is that they DO NOT wear masks and they go out of their way to hide it. The person came in with the mask but took it off immediately - I caught a glimpse a few times. What I should have done was get up and leave. My mistake, but warning people who are actually taking the pandemic seriously to avoid this place. read more

We booked an one hour special $50 today for my husband. He had a wonderful time- he said the lady did a great job relive the stress. On the checkout, we were asked to pay $60 instead of $50. They said the therapist had complained that it took additional work to work on my husband. Interesting.. Eventually they honored the $50 rate. We tipped 20% to the lady. The lady looked at the bill and got mad at me- 10 dollars? I don't want this tip! Give it to the front desk! Wow excuse me.. what kind of attitude is that.. I would have given a 5 given the quality of the massage but the encounter truly left a sour taste in the mouth. So 3 it is. read more

Highly recommend this place for massage. The service has been consistent for years and price is really good. Best massage in long beach.
