My girlfriend booked a couples massage for my birthday, and unfortunately, the experience was uncomfortable from start to finish. We were placed in separate rooms, which defeated the purpose of a couples massage, and without any explanation. On top of that, we were each assigned opposite-gender therapists, which felt inappropriate and made both of us uncomfortable. During my massage, the therapist kept walking in and out of the room, leaving the door open several times, which made me feel exposed and uneasy. At the end, she made an inappropriate comment about me being "a very strong man" in front of my girlfriend and her husband, which was completely unprofessional. To make matters worse, after my girlfriend left a tip, they told her she should leave a larger one. It was very uncomfortable and disrespectful. We stood there awkwardly while they spoke in another language and ignored us until we asked if we could leave. My girlfriend worked hard to surprise me for my birthday, and it's disappointing that this special occasion turned into such an unpleasant experience. We will not be returning, and I do not recommend this place to anyone who values professionalism or respect. read more

I booked online and called to reserve a spot for a couples massage a few days before which is 130$. As we arrived we told the guy that we've reserved a couples massage and seem clueless he acted liked he didn't know how to communicate I pointed the the price were it said couples massage for 130$ and he said okay , but ended up separating my partner and I to different rooms and once again the communication was confusing and ended up getting the opposite gender which felt uncomfortable. At the end where I needed to pay they suddenly know English when I tipped 10$ and got mad and insisted for me to add more which the other lady said we did the 160$ massage. Very unprofessional read more

My Mom and I came to get a massage here after a long stint of caring for a loved one in ICU. They were able to fit us in fairly short notice for a 60 minutes each. It was the perfect self care that was so needed after nearly 2 weeks. Made our day! Huge thanks to Nancy and Kitty for helping us relax! read more

BEST MASSAGE IVE EVER HAD!! and I've had dozens. Sunny was absolutely incredible and a very intuitive massage therapist. It's like he knew all the best spots to work on. I've never felt so relaxed and rejuvenated. I work on my feet full time and this took all the built up pain and stress out of my feet and body! read more

Great downtown massage and reflexology that has yet to disappoint me. Reasonably priced, long hours, great atmosphere & staff. Whether you're alone or take your significant other/friend they have plenty of space. I recommend the 90 min Pampering Package. Trust me! Parking street side and remember to pay during business hours. read more

My experience at this massage parlor was below expectations. But I should've know upon the appearance alone. During the session, I found it unusual that part of the massage involved the therapist standing on my back and using her feet, which was awkward. Additionally, upon paying $70 (including a $10 tip) with $80 cash withdrawn from an ATM that charged a fee, the therapist insisted it wasn't enough and refused to provide change. Communication was also a challenge as she seemed to pretend not to understand English. Overall, this experience left me dissatisfied, and I do not plan on returning to this place. I believe it's important for businesses to uphold professional standards and ensure customers feel valued and respected. This place was not it. Scammy. read more

Pros: very affordable Will work effectively to get knots out Good variety of different massage techniques used As far as I could tell, clean Cons: zero aesthetic to this place- as in- if I hadn't prepaid for the massage, I would have considered leaving. A nice spa aesthetic it is not. I have gotten massages all over the place, from chains to massage therapists working out of their home, to 5 star resorts. This is the first time I questioned whether or not a place was inherently safe. To be clear- at no time was my safety in question, but the "vibe" is in no way middle-high end quality as you may find elsewhere. An example of my point- I have never gone to a massage business with an ATM in the lobby. Bars on windows. Communication was nil- I was barely greeted as I walked in- showed a room- therapist did not introduce themselves nor ask where I would like extra attention. He asked what pressure I wanted and that was it I am not super modest when it comes to massage- but every massage I've ever received (at least 100)- a sheet has been provided for a cover. This had just a smallish flannel blanket- as a tall and full figured person, I didn't feel covered, esp when it was time to turn over. Awkward, esp with a therapist of opposite gender. No water offered at the end- another first for me- almost any massage therapist will offer a cup or bottle of water after a massage. Esp here in the desert? And when I handed him a tip, he literally grunted and counted the cash in front of me. Completely unprofessional. I'm 24 hours out from massage and I'm More in pain than feeling relaxed. I asked for medium pressure and would say most of the time it was firm- but I knew I had a lot of knots and tension so I flowed with it. In retrospect, I should have asked him to ease up. I can't say I'd recommend this place, yet nothing was hugely problematic. Just not my vibe for a relaxing massage. I still feel very off about it am extremely sore. If aesthetic doesn't mean much to you- definitely try it as it's affordable- just be sure to communicate clearly what you want. read more

Therapist knew how to address knots in my back. I was able to get in right away and the ambience was good.

Nice place and a great massage! You should come here! Perfect for sore or tired from long work. It was helpful! read more

I went in for 60 minute massage which I was told would be $65.00 tax included. When I handed the owner my debit card he pointed to the atm machine. I was confused because the businesses window has a sticker of all the cards they accept. Anyways, I went ahead and pulled out $80, since you can only take out in 20 dollar increments, and paid a total of 6 dollars in fees, to get the money out. I handed 80 to the owner hoping I would at least get $10 dollars back. He looked very confused and said "have a nice day." I said can I have 10 dollars back? He said "the minimum tip you can leave is $15!!!! Then I said, "it looks as though you're about to keep the whole 80, and he said yes!!" I walked out visibly upset. I will never ever return there!! read more

Downtown Massage - Massage Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

One of the best massages I've ever had and I go back monthly. The establishment is clean and professional and they are very accommodating and flexible. Would highly recommend to anyone. read more

Bought a Groupon for a 30min foot-massage here and it was a steal! Bought it the night before and they have walk-in service. Didn't have to wait too long for service and it was more than just a foot massage. They rubbed down my temples, shoulders and back and still gave me a pretty descent foot massage. They keep the environment quiet and peaceful for you to relax. The really have the service part of customer service down. Would definitely try again. The only downside is parking downtown. I was able to luckily find parking right outside but I can it being a problem. read more

Rated a top massage parlor in ABQ so I decided to try. Walked in off the Main Street which was not a great neighborhood. Not the worst either. But while getting a massage my masseuse left every time someone came in. One particular time was a gentleman who walked straight in to ask to go upstairs obsessively. Needless to say we did not return. We got our weekly massage at Placidity the rest of our time in ABQ! read more

Wow! I'm so happy I found this place. It had some great pros as well as a some cons but for the price I can deal with a few minimal cons. So let's start with the pros. First I was able to walk in and immediately get services. Similar to both community Massage clinics if you don't mind sharing space you can pretty much walk in with little to no wait. They have long hours so you could easily swing in after work, etc. The Massage itself was exceptional! My experience ranged from a foot soak, to an amazing foot rub, body massage, and a few occasional stretches. My masseuse was awesome and the pressure, which sometimes is too strong with oriental massages was nearly perfect. The prices are great and reasonable. Now, let's look at the cons. The community massage space is adjacent to the check in desk and separated by a small wall. The spa sits on a main road so those who are very aware of environments and sounds might be bothered so you may want to bring ear plugs. There was someone waiting for services when I came in and her service ended before mine but unfortunately most of the noise came from workers. Again, I'm very sensitive to sounds, smells, etc. so this might not have bothered anyone else. There were 2 other employees there. One kept walking back and forth (in what sounded like flip flops) asking my masseuse stuff. Someone else decided to have a snack, lunch or something and I presume it was soup because they slurped it down. Thank God it wasn't a lot because that would drove me bananas-- but as I said before I have keen hearing. Finally, when my therapist tapped me to rollover I noticed the other masseuse lying on the bed beside me just staring. I'm not sure if she was merely observing the Massage technique or what but it was a bit uncomfortable. Those were the main cons. There were also a few things that made me raise an eyebrow but weren't deal breakers, rather notable mentions. There is a language barrier. My masseuse could not speak any English but did use her phone to translate my questions. After my massage I went to the restroom and saw the space was way bigger than it appeared. They also have private rooms if you want to relax in private or want to have your occasional doze off and snore in peace lol. Finally they do have yelp deals and there was a coupon for $10 off at your first check in. I tried to use this coupon and I'm not sure if they weren't aware how it worked or just weren't sure I was a person of integrity but they snapped several pics of my phone with the promo on it. Even after I marked it as used they continued to take pictures of my phone's screen. With all that said it was a great massage for a great price so I plan on visiting again. read more

Downtown Massage - Massage Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

You guys, there are a LOT of things I love in this weird world (cheese, Harry Potter, the smell of the inside of a pumpkin, all animals except stupid sloths, etc...), but a high-quality-but-cheap massage is really really high on the list. I found exactly that at Downtown Foot Massage. I was in ABQ for two days and I went here twice! After being on my feet all day at SOMOS (countdown to next year's big fest!), my dogs were barkin', ya know? I Yelped a masseuse that was nearby, accepted walk ins, was cheap, highly rated, and miraculously open after 10pm. DFM was all of the above!! I walked in, and was immediately assisted by Jack. He was incredibly friendly, with lots of attention to my comfort. At first I got just the foot massage - which included a blissful hot foot soak, a quick head/neck/shoulder massage, and a firm and therapeutic foot massage. 30 mins = $20! I went back as soon as I could haha. This time I got the superbly priced "Foot & Body Massage Package" - 30mins each of foot & body massage... 1 hr = $40! Again, the service was fantastic. I'd recommend this package, it's def the best deal. Other notes: You do not have to completely de-robe for the foot/body massages. You are provided a velcro towel that still offers comfortable coverage when you remove your top. Jack does not speak english, but communicates through a translator app. He's so friendly!! And doesn't skimp you on time! Go here. read more

Relaxation.... So I read the review of this place on yelp and it peaked my curiosity. I had to give it a try myself. A friend of mine and I decided to give it a try. The location of this place is smack down in the middle of the downtown district. Im not going to lie after I drove up I was a little wary. When we walked in however we were greeted by the nicest people. Thankfully they had room for our walk in visit and there was no wait. We talked to them about the options they had to offer and we made our choices. They escort you to a semi-private room with a curtain for privacy and the ambiance whispers relaxation and serenity. The massage was amazing and the prices are better than reasonable. I will definitly come back. Thank you fir a great experience. read more

This place is immaculate--a big deal, especially in these days of Covid. This is some serious massage, done by someone who knows multiple techniques and types of work. He fixed kinked muscles that had been hurting me for weeks. And insanely reasonable prices. I'll certainly be back. read more

Been going to kevin for massage gives one of the best massage I've ever had

Omg...Kevin is amazing. This was the best deep tissue massage I've ever had and I get deep tissue massages every two weeks back home in Florida. I came to Albuquerque today after flying into El Paso yesterday and hiking White Sands National Park today. I desperately needed a massage. I called and got a same day appointment for me and my husband. My husband's massage and therapist were fantastic as well. I highly recommend this place. read more

I'm very picky when it comes to massages and this place is fantastic. I feel healed when I leave here and I sleep so good. I love the foot massage and have been there about 5 times. I've also taken family and friends and they were also happy. I'm so happy I found this gem in Albuquerque. If you go there be ready for a community style massage if you go for the foot massage which does include a full body rub as well. They do have private rooms for the "full body massage". The prices are affordable and reasonable. I highly recommend this place. read more

I do not remember the woman's name who worked on me the last time I was at downtown Massage, but it was one of the best massages I have ever had. I had thrown my back out a couple of months earlier, and it never quite got better and I was completely fine once I walked out of there. I am going back tomorrow, and I am very excited! read more

If you need a great, relaxing message and you are in or around the downtown area go to the Downtown Foot Massage, they take walk-ins. They are all great at what they do, all are very professional. I have never had a bad experience, nothing but positivity. read more

My only regret is not finding this place sooner. I was a mid afternoon walk-in and was greeted and seated right away. The room is not private but it is quiet and comfortable. They did have one private room available- perhaps you could ask for that if you wanted it. I did and hour foot and body massage combo. Really enjoyed the experience. The water the put your feet in is just plain warm water and they use unscented lotion and warm towels. They wipe the lotion/oil off of your feet and legs or body so you don't leave feeling like a grease ball. There are small boxes near each seat/table so you know your personal belongings are safe in and sight. There is a reward program to buy 10 visits and get the 11th free. A gem in downtown Albuquerque. Would be an excellent lunch break if working downtown read more

Traveling through Albuquerque on our way to California. Desperately in need of a massage. Found this gem on Yelp. Both my wife and I had one of the best massages we've ever had. Can't wait to drive through Albuquerque again in a few months and stop by this place. read more

I'm so excited to have found this place! The treatment was as good if not better than my favorite foot massage place in San Francisco and NYC. I have been wishing that there was a really good Chinatown-style massage place in ABQ for years. I'm so happy to report that we've finally got one. An hour foot massage is $30 and includes scalp, neck, arms and back (naturally ). Jack and Cici were equally incredible therapists. Dave is also great! Love the newly expanded location. read more

Downtown Massage - Massage Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

This place is terrible and the guy ripped me off. He demanded a minimum tip after the worst massage ever. Stay away from this dump!

Other than uncomfortable beds, noise of other clients (snoring not included), short transparent dirty sheets, waiting time (even tho we had a reservation), my male therapist kept going out for no reason, never have I ever heard complaints about amount of tips until yesterday and he tried arguing with my husband saying we should give him at least $50 extra ( massage for both was $110+ $10 tax which we never saw a check of). And even tho I love massage and get it every week I will neither come back nor recommend this place even to the worst enemy read more

Massage was okay. Was told couple massage would be $55 each over the phone. Upon checking out, I was told $60. This is a +$10 difference and I was going to make a fuss. The clerk who happened to be my masseuse made a huge deal and ridiculously uncomfortable situation by demanding we use the ATM and pay with cash. Once I presented the cash needed he picked up money waved it and said "NO TIP!?!?". I went ahead a put an extra $10 down to call it a day and he kept trying to force me to take more money out of the ATM. What on earth. I will never be back and would suggest to stay away due to confrontational and outrageous behavior when checking out. I am sure this is driving business away at an alarming rate. Yikes! read more

We bought an $11 Groupon for a 30 minute foot massage. When we got there we were offered 60 minute fool body massage for an additional $20. That was the best $31 I've ever spent! The massage started with a foot soak followed by an amazing foot and leg scrub and ended with a hot stone back massage. The scalp and neck massage were also amazing and eliminated the tension I was feeling. This is a really cute place with curtains separating the rooms. I like that the lights are dimmed and the music is soft. We will definitely be back!! read more

This second time I went back I got a two hour massage and it was amazing. Jack is very strong and knows the body. He does not speak English at all. All our exchange is through a phone app :-)) The place is very clean and I'm now a Sunday regular. I LOVE this place!! read more

I took the combo package for $70 . The deep tissue massage is awesome ! The hot stone make me feel so good . Every point that he press on make me feel so much better. Definitely will come back again ! read more

I loved the quiet and relaxing atmosphere. It was 30 minutes of bliss. It is the perfect place to stop in to reduce stress. Great staff!

Rude and Very unprofessional! Complained about the tip we gave them and asked for more money! Felt very uncomfortable both people we got wouldn't stop coughing . read more

Came in without appoint and was seen right away. The prices are very reasonable. However, one thing that I did find interesting was despite asking for an hour foot massage, I maybe got 25 minutes of it between them working on my head, neck, and arms and going to go get hot towels and dumping out the water. So don't expect to get the full time of any of the massages with all the other admin time included. However the pressure was solid and they were friendly despite not speaking English well. I will come back here mainly for the price and the non-appointments needed. B+ read more
