Nikky takes her time and conduct a care-filled consultation to make sure she understands where I'm at that day. Then she focuses on those areas of my body, mind and spirit that need attention.

I had the best massage I've had in anchorage here. I could have sworn she said her name was yaya…read morebut after checking reviews maybe it was Anna. Anyway I got a 60m massage with hot stones+towels and back walking and she was very thorough to focus on nerves and pressure points. I have a really bad back and she found all the knots and worked on them without causing immense pain(we've all had a massage where you suffer in silence a bit I think haha). She did not ask me to prepay and also didn't have me add a tip automatically(I offered $20 on my own anyhow). I only note that because I saw a lot of other reviews stating otherwise but that wasn't my experience. Anywho I'll be back!

She was in a hurry because she said she didn't have lunch, and also because she had an appointment. (We arrived at p minutes before our appointment) then she charged us before the massage and then she added a tip of $10 per person..I mean...I always tip AFTER the service but this was mandatory...at this point I had to stay with my daughter in the room; because with her attitude I didn't know what to expect. It was so sad to see my daughter's face. I didn't have the massage.

Elite was a life saver! This place was recommended to me by a massage therapist. Called when they…read morefirst opened to see if there were same day appt and there was! Place is clean and simple/peaceful. It looks like there's chair massage up front. They offer couples massage also. I was led to a room to undress and lay face down. The therapist asked if I liked medium or hard pressure so I told her my preference. She did a great job with where I need it to be hard vs medium. Warning - at some point the therapist is likely to get on the bed to grab the bars on the ceiling to massage you with their leg/feet! This isn't unheard of in Asian massages but more novel for Western massage. Barefoot massage has broken that barrier for Alaska I think - and let me tell you it feels good, especially if you need that additional pressure. Surprisingly, only minor soreness after given the pressure she used. They take credit card too!

She didn't ask me, she told me. I said that's uncomfortable, I was thinking more like $7-$10 for a tip. She said no one would massage for 45 minutes for a $10 tip. And that I'm crazy. I asked if I could pay now and tip after, she said no and gave me back my card. What kind of late night massage place are running?! The fuck. Add your "worth" to your prices to avoid people going out of their way to get denied because you chose what tip they leave. Weird shit!

I came in here to take advantage of the gift card I had received from S. Anchorage Dental Center a…read morecouple of days ago for being a new client. After a rough stretch the last several weeks between work and school, I needed to relieve the tension and stress of keeping up with the daily grind. This place is located in a small shopping center in front of the Wal-Mart off of Old Seward behind the Dimond Center Tower. They have a parking lot separate from Wal-Mart which is a plus considering how hectic the parking lot of Wal-Mart is throughout the day. I came in and was warmly greeted by a few employees behind the counter. I explained to them that I had a gift card to redeem for a massage. I was able to save $60.00 for a one-hour massage using the gift card. What an awesome deal in return for being a new dental client. The gift card of course doesn't include gratuity. The masseuse did a great job relieving the knots in my neck, shoulders, and lower back so I gave a $12.00 tip which is 20% of the $59.99 bill. They offered me a monthly membership at $69.99 per month, but in all honesty, this is one of those things to treat yourself once in a while while keeping an eye on your budget. For anyone interested, their massage deals go from $59.99 1-hour, $89.99 1 1/2-hours, and $119.99 2-hours for new clients. Types of massages include Trigger Point Therapy (massage that relieves tight areas within muscle tissue that causes chronic pain in other areas of the body), Swedish Massage (the best for relaxation and improving circulation in the body), Deep Tissue (releases muscle tension and provides deep pain relief from chronic overuse related to physical work), Sports Massage (improves flexibility and endurance, reduces recovery time after a workout at the gym, and is a necessity for anyone on a training regimen), and Cranial Sacral Therapy (my choice for relieving muscle tension, back and neck pain, and effective in alleviating headaches). Add-ons for enhanced sessions can be added with any massage starting at $10.00. This includes Aroma Therapy (oils extracted from herbs, flowers, or fruits), Deep Muscle Therapy (warming or cooling thermal treatments to provide deep muscle pain relief, decrease inflammation, and improve circulation), and Hot Stone Envy (the use of smooth, water-heated stones on the body to allow deeper relaxation of the muscles). A good, centralized location in a major retail area off of Dimond, friendly, helpful staff, and a good place to treat yourself if the pressures of work and school become too much and you just need to get away from it all for a little while.
