She helped loosen my upper back muscles and neck. Feels like 10 pounds off my shoulders. I still need a few more sessions to correct my bad posture and knots from sitting at a desk for long hours. 10/10 massage and I feel amazing . Location: is great. Central San Diego Atmosphere: relaxing and very clean Communication: A+ + her little dog is awesome. She explained how my muscles have been tight and why my shoulders are not aligned. With a few more sessions I will see the muscles corrected. If you are looking to get tight muscles loosened, immediately feel better blood circulation and even breathing easier. This is the spot. Already booked my next session.

We both enjoyed our time! Parking: They have their own parking lot, though it's a bit smaller. We booked on a Saturday appointment at 12pm and there were only a few spots left. They only have one entrance, so they don't connect from the main parking lot behind-- just a heads up. Price: $100 for 90 minutes or $95 if cash-- which is a great price. We signed up for the $10 discount for first timers and put the code in when we booked online. But upon check in, they told us that the code only works for Monday-Thursday, which was disappointing since that wasn't listed anywhere on their website nor was it mentioned when we booked. Experience: We were in a couples room and there seemed to be a handful of rooms available. Shout out to Polly and Sara for being our therapists! They did a great job and they really dug in my problem areas. I enjoy medium to hard pressure and Polly delivered. What stood out to me the most was that after being on our back, they put Peppermint essential oil on our neck and shoulder, which felt amazing! At any other massages, my sinuses are usually so stuffy when I flip on my back but the essential oil cleared everything up. I'd like to point out however that the walls are very thin. So when people walked down the hall, you can hear them talking. Afterwards, they served tea and water. Overall: We enjoyed our first time getting Thai massage and we'd consider coming back again!

I've been here twice now, as have a couple of my friends and we all have had a "meh" experience. My…read moremain issue is with the front desk. The first time I came here over a year ago, the front desk guy wasn't friendly and it didn't start my massage in a relaxing headspace. Today, the front desk had two people there and after I was checked in, neither of them thought to tell me there's a lounge that I can sit in while I wait. I'm very obviously nine months pregnant and it's hard to walk down the block at this point. After you check in, you're in this tight spaced gift shop area with no seating and I wasn't sure what to do until I saw a guy in a walker make his way through a room that said lounge across the top. After my massage was done today, I was back in that little gift shop area waiting to check out and pay for my massage. The lady checking out before me took a while so I was just standing there, exhausted with nowhere to sit. I very clearly remember giving the gift card number I was given when I reserved the appointment online, so it was also annoying that when I finally got up to pay, they dint have any of this information. These seems like small things, but they all add up to me having to put in more effort when I'm paying to set time aside to relax.

This place is a rip off and will scam you for money…read more I went in with my son asked for 30 min massage for both of us. The guy agreed and told us to go to the table. As I was getting the massage the guy kept asking 40, 50. I was lying on the table face down and couldn't understand him. I had to pop my head up and say 30. He kept doing this and the other guys would be speaking back and forth in their language. At the end when I was checking out they charged us for a 40 min massage and $10 tip each. I was so fed up I agreed. It was not a 40 min massage. I literally had to tell the guy lighter pressure every other minute. The massage was uncomfortable and hurt and times when he would apply pressure. It was not a body massage it was a pressure release of some sort that was painful. I feel like this is a dirty tactic they use to rip people off. Not satisfied on how they trick an haggle you into taking your money for less time you agreed on. Will not go in ever again. Make sure you use a timer and tell all of the workers the time of massage you want if you go in.
