It was an encounter with the body, which I had long since gotten out of the habit of. I felt warmth, current, a slight shudder, a response in the lower abdomen. But most importantly, it was beautiful. The master seemed to be keeping the line between passion and meditation, without going to either extreme. I left there with a slight dizziness and the feeling that I had been in another dimension.

The master seemed to lead me through the labyrinths of her own perception, opening up new points of pleasure and peace. I was especially surprised by how powerfully even a light touch of the shoulders or neck affected me - the whole body seemed to connect to one rhythm. After the massage, I felt a pure vibration - as if the body was breathing on its own. I am incredibly grateful for this experience.

One of the best massages I've ever had! In just one 90 minute session, Richard relieved years of…read moreknots and tight muscles. Making an appointment was easy. I think I was lucky to get a same day appointment. That said I'd recommend calling at least a few days in advance. Richard is located in K-town on the third floor of an older building. The parking lot is safe and free. Once you pull into the lot, security guards will tell you where to park. Richard started the session by asking a few questions to better understand my needs, sensitivity, and preferences. He used multiple techniques, communicated throughout the session, and is simply a master of massage. It's difficult to describe exactly what he does because it's a combination of acupressure, shiatsu, and deep tissue. Let's just say this isn't one of those relaxing Swedish massage type situations where you fall asleep. Richard intuitively works out tight muscles and really gets to the core of the tension. All I can say is I feel so much better and lighter after just one session. Highly recommend! LOCATION: 5/5 SERVICE: 5/5 VALUE: 5/5 AMBIANCE: 4/5 CLEANLINESS: 5/5 PARKING: 5/5

I just left my appointment and WOW! Richard is incredibly…read moreknowledgeable and talented! I stand for long periods of time and drive for long periods of time for work and my body gets knotted up and stiff pretty quickly. But Richard worked out a lot of knots, even from areas I didn't realize that had them! He is visually impaired which makes this even more awesome because his sense of touch and intuition is stronger! He does ask that first time patients pay ahead to secure their spot because a lot of times people don't show up. And when I finished my massage someone called to make an appointment and claimed that they sent him the money but instead they just sent a screen shot, instead of him getting a confirmation text from Zelle. So he asked me and I confirmed that they did not pay and it is only a screen shot. So please don't do this man like that. He is a diamond in the rough and his prices are VERY reasonable for the type of massage you get! I will be returning next week to get more of this facia broken down!

I will be returning to Swan on a regular basis.

MUUUUUUCH needed deep tissue massage for the win! But first, let's get into pricing. their fee for…read moreusing credit/debit is diabolical - it's like a 7$ up charge so be sure to bring cash. they do have an ATM inside if you wanna do that, I believe it's like $3 and some change. pricing is pretty fair compared to competitors. the facility is suuuuper clean, quiet and brings a sense of tranquility. there's solo rooms or ones with the curtain separating customers. i booked a deep tissue + Swedish massage combo/hr for 7p. i was extremely tight is some spots so the massage felt a bit tense at times. i did have to ask for less pressure twice. it was a great massage and i would go back again, but i did feel my experience was cut short. we arrived right at 7p, paid, waited a min or two, used the restroom and then went to our rooms - so naturally we started a little after our reservation. upon completion i gathered my things and noticed it was about 5mins before 8p. now - im not here to clock everything, but it is a timed service, soooo, you kinda want to to get your monies worth! i ended up having a seat in the waiting room and waited for my partner to wrap up who started at the same time i did. service was friendly and accommodating. parking is a hassle as it's located on the corner of a busy street.

The atmosphere was calm and respectful, and the staff was wonderful. Helen did my scrub and did an excellent job (on the harsher side, which I loved).

The only thing missing is food options -- hope they add some in the future.

Came on a weekday morning which is much quieter and rooms/jacuzzis are smaller in comparison to…read moresome of the other Korean spas I've been to (i.e. IrvineSpa, KSpa in Buena Park). This is great if you want it quiet. Not a place you come with a bunch of friends that want to socialize. $3 validated parking for the Central Plaza parking garage right across from it. Came when they had 50% off admission which was $25 but seemed overpriced if you are a guy. Pros: -Unlimited Reishi mushroom tea. They also have water and coffee everywhere. -Large sized towel, robe, slippers in the locker. -3 jacuzzis (Himalayan salt, alkaline, citrus) , wet sauna (love that it's like a fog/mist and not shower sprayers!), dry sauna, and 3 specialized rooms (Infrared, salt, and mud room w small heated balls which was my favorite). All was great, but wish there was a cold pool in the women's area too. Cons/Room for improvement: -Though they now have a clothed, co-ed section, it is underwhelming. -The jacuzzi was warm, not hot. -There was a waterfall pool but was very shallow and also just warm. -Cold Plunge is a 5 ft. deep pool that had a rickety ladder to get in/out of. It would've been nice if it had a seat. -The wet and dry saunas were off and took a while to turn on, but never got hot. My guy friend gave feedback on the men's locker room: -no restroom inside -no sinks inside - no sit down showers which the women's side has If I were a guy, I wouldn't come just for the spa as it just feels like a side amenity. And definitely expensive even at $25.

As someone whose work life swings between 12+ hour days at a desk and long hours standing on set,…read moreI've come to rely on monthly massages to manage chronic tension, stress, and back pain. I travel often and always try to book a massage wherever I go, so I've had my fair share of experiences in different cities and styles of bodywork. That said, I have never had a lymphatic massage before coming here and I can honestly say it's made a huge impact on my overall health and well-being. The relief I've felt in my shoulders, neck, and back has been incredible. Jessica's approach goes far beyond surface-level tension; her work supports deeper healing by addressing the nervous system, inflammation, and the stress that gets stored in the body over time. After every session, I walk out feeling like she's given me a brand new body -- lighter, pain-free, and more in tune with itself. My sleep has improved. My energy is more consistent. And most surprisingly, my eczema (which I've had since childhood) responded to her treatment in a way I've never experienced. One particular patch that had been stubborn for months is now virtually gone. I was floored. I'm incredibly grateful I found this place. It's rare to find a practitioner who is not only skilled but deeply intuitive and grounded in healing. I'll be a long-time client, without question.

Afterward, my partner mentioned he received hot stones and additional services that I did not receive, even though we both booked the same Thai massage. My massage was average, while my partner said his was great. I also didn't feel like the space was the cleanest, but for the price, it was acceptable. My main concern is that we booked the same service but had very different experiences and treatments. I believe the service should be consistent when booking the same massage.

ASK FOR JJ! I came…read morehere to redeem my fragile self after my last horrific massage--which we've all agreed was a learning experience. I had just landed in LA after a six-hour flight. Snow wrecked the team's plans, my bones were screaming, and my inner voice said: Koreatown. Massage. Now. The very friendly girl at the Moxy front desk recommended Silver Lake Spa and casually dropped the words "mid-week special." $55 for one hour. Sign. Me. Up. No questions asked. Just one boundary: if I get poked, I'm out. The place is modest and unassuming. JJ was my therapist. Between my moaning, grunting, and aggressively pointing at my neck and shoulders (note to self: don't lift weights the day before a six-hour flight), we agreed on a relaxing Thai/Swedish combo. Friends... JJ knew exactly what she was doing. She found knots in my skull. My actual skull. Then proceeded to perform some kind of kung-fu Thai magic where I felt what used to be my brain turn back into mush--in the best way. She moved to my shoulders and back, mixing deep Thai stretches with light kneading, locating muscle kinks like five-carat diamonds and polishing them until they no longer existed. At one point I'm fairly certain I was purring. HR would not approve. Then came the oil and relaxation portion. Pure bliss. She was gentle, focused, and so intentional that I may or may not have teared up slightly. One hour was simply not enough. I could've moved in. If you live in LA--go see JJ. If you're visiting--go see JJ. It was a glorious hour, and I'm still wiping the drool off my face. This girl is going straight to bed. But I will find JJ again. Just don't tell HR.
