Such a great massage for my first time here. I called to make an appt and was able to make one for the same day. The 60 min foot reflexology for $60 was very worth it. My masseuse applied perfect pressure and hit all the right spots. Not only was it a foot massage, she also did my head and top half of my body. The chair was comfortable. The spa is clean and surprisingly large as you walk back there. One of the best ones I've had in awhile. Will definitely come back. read more

Unreal! My massage therapist, CiCi was incredible! She used her hands, knees, and elbows to slowly work every single muscle on my body. From the gentle, delicate gliding, intense pinpoint muscle work, and knot release, to hot stones placed in strategic spots on my body. I feel 10 years younger read more

I'm writing this so other customers can be aware and hopefully avoid the same situation we experienced. I booked a Couples Romantic Signature massage in advance for Valentine's Day morning and received a confirmation email with the time, total, booking reference, and location. We showed up at our scheduled time, only to be told that our appointment was not showing in their system and that their next available opening wasn't until 2:00 PM. This was a Valentine's gift. Being told upon arrival that they couldn't honor a confirmed booking was incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I understand that technical errors can happen, but when a customer has a confirmed booking with a reference number, there should be better coordination between their booking platform and the spa. At the very least, there should be an effort to accommodate the client or offer a meaningful solution. If you are booking for a special occasion, I would strongly recommend calling ahead to verbally confirm your appointment to avoid this kind of situation. Very disappointed with how this was handled. read more

It's a clean place. I took my mom here for a massage and she really loved it. I also really liked the relaxing experience. For the massage, they really honor the time. Most places I've been to kind of cut the time short a little. This was one of the best massage places I've been to where it felt safe. My feet did end up being very sticky from the sugar scrub at the end though. Hope next time, she can better rinse or clean. My mom also felt very good about her massage and that says a lot because she complains about most places. The front desk could do a better job though. She wasn't the most friendly at the end. While paying, I wish she could have asked if I wanted to buy a package instead of waiting for me to pay and then we buy a package later. Better service would have been to ask if it was my first time here and if I wanted to check out the other packages for next time or how was my visit. Hope she gets better. The star loss mostly came from my interactions with her. There's a lot of special deals that you have to find out for yourself. I learned of the packages while waiting for my mom. Then I learned from another customer that there was a stamp card. When I asked the front desk for one too, she said she already gave me one. But she didn't, so she gave me one. There's also a $2 credit card fee that you're just expected to pay. She said my total then added $2, so I assume it was because of the credit card. She didn't say anything about it though. They also have a cash special Mon-Thursdays in the mornings. There is also an ATM machine in the store right by the front desk. The lobby was a little odd, there was a giant cardboard box right in the middle. I think they were in the middle of unpacking something and haven't broken down the box yet. My mom forgot her phone, but the front desk again was not very nice. My mom later did find her phone in the massage room, where she remembered she left it. The drinking water at the end was nice. I wish they automatically offer it to all guests though. read more

I came here for the 1 hour scalp spa. I loved that I could use my class pass credits here since I had some extra. It was very enjoyable and definitely left with squeaky clean here. They did forget to show me my scalp before hand so I didn't see it before but I was coming more for the relaxation so it was ok. read more

My neck and back had been bothering me, so I was looking for a simple 30-minute chair massage. I found this place on Yelp, and the website linked there listed the price as $35, which is the only reason I chose to come. The massage itself was good, no complaints there. However, when I went to check out, I was told the price was $50. I showed the receptionist the website attached to Yelp, and she said they don't use that website anymore. If that's the case, it really shouldn't be linked on Yelp. I would not have come in had I known the price was $50. $50 for a 30-minute chair massage is very expensive, and the pricing felt misleading. Please update or remove outdated pricing so other customers don't run into the same issue. I won't be returning read more

I booked this place through ClassPass for $60 worth of credits I showed up 10 minutes early for my appointment time and they told me they didn't have my appointment booked, but instead, I could go ahead and pay them with my card right now instead of my ClassPass credits So I asked if they had any availability and they said yes if I paid them card. they should probably get off ClassPass if they don't honor ClassPass credits. Waste of time. read more

After moving I needed to find a new spa that's better for my commute. I originally found this place on Groupon and SO glad I did! I had one of the best massages I've ever had. I really love how my masseuse found my knots and worked on them. He had great technique to get rid of them! It was such a great and relaxing massage, I feel amazing after. This place is huge and they have a huge variety of services for great prices! Some package deals even include a glass of wine! If you are looking for a massage, facial, or even a scalp treatment that's affordable, and has great service then look no further; this place is it! I can't wait to come back! read more

I went to this spa for massage and facial services. on my previous massage session I had a very disappointing experience here and will not be returning. During my hot stones massage, the masseuse, Qiaoling Shan, dropped hot rocks on my head while I was face down on the table. While it was shocking and uncomfortable, I did have a small towel over my head so I wasn't injured and also figured- sometimes mistakes happen. I still left a $10 tip. the masseuse had been speaking decent conversational English until that point. Instead of even acknowledging me politely, she avoided eye contact, started speaking in her native language to the receptionist and appeared visibly upset about the amount. The attitude afterward made the experience even worse. Considering rocks were literally dropped on my head during the service, she was lucky to receive any tip at all. I also found it questionable that customers are encouraged to send tips through Venmo rather than through the business directly. It did not feel professional or transparent. Overall, very disappointing customer service and professionalism. read more

10/10 would recommend!! I went in with severe back pain that muscle relaxers weren't even touching. Helen got me taken care of, and I added cupping to my appointment. I'm sore today, but have full range in my neck again and was able to do yoga this morning. I'll absolutely be back! Thank you Helen for the best massage I've ever had! read more

We love this local massage spot! We've been here twice now for couples massages - both have been excellent. It's so peaceful and quiet, the people are all so nice. It's a real treat! read more

Had a very very good massage lady was very. I told her I didn't want too hard. I don't enjoy that and she was not. She was just right. So it was very soothing very calming very relaxing just the way I like it. read more

I spent 2.5 hours here because I had been in a lot of pain and was visiting from out of town. Helen did very strong traditional Chinese deep tissue massage that was intense but very effective. She also asked if I was ok and responded well to feedback. I got a 90 minute deep tissue, added an extra 30 minutes in the middle of the massage because of how messed up all my muscles were, and did a 30 minute foot reflexology. I walked out of there feeling so much more like myself. I saw some reviews that online booking didn't work that great, so I opted to call to schedule and the appointment went very smoothly. The place is really clean and nice with friendly staff. I think the price was fair given the fact I got the massage in a private room and Helen worked so hard that when she asked me if I was ok I also asked her if she was ok haha. I intend to come back every time I visit! read more

Absolutely love ! Our new spot when coming down here from la !! We loved it so much ,the front desk was so welcoming even gifted me a box of chocolates for my birthday!! extremely clean and helpful sweet staff will be back 100x read more

Massage was fine. But after going several times, paying $100 (not including tip) for 90 minute massage which included hot stones, I was disappointed that this time they charged $110 and hot stones would be an added charge of $25!! Wow business must be bad or it's just bad business. Won't be going back. read more

I just had one of the best massages with Nancy! The spa was pretty clean and looks fairly new. A lot of spaces and rooms. I was worried when I saw a construction going on right next to the place. I wanted some quiet relaxing time and not hear drilling banging and etc. I worried over nothing, it was very veryyy relaxing, the room was quiet just soothing music on background, and I almost fell asleep. I did diamond package and it was perfect. She was very professional and everything was nice and perfect. I highly recommend this place to everybody. The price was very reasonable too for 90 minutes. I will definitely come back again read more

The newest massage spot in town that is reasonably priced and an excellent value. The staff are friendly and welcoming. It's clean and bright unlike others that I've been to. Monthly rates are very competitive and worth a consideration. Soon, they'll be offering scalp drip sessions... In need of a last minute gift? They have certificates available! I'll be back soon one way or the other. Relaxation and stress relief is worth it. You're worth it, I'm worth it. Live a little. read more

My husband had purchased two 90 minutes gift cards for Christmas 2024. I used one last year and I finally got around to booking my second appointment today. While checking in the woman said my gift card would not be honored because of change of ownership. Stating that it was only honored through 2025. It's too bad she couldn't have at least offered me a discount on a massage. I will go elsewhere when booking my next massage. read more

I've been here several times fur massage, and no matter who i go to, they always intuitively give me just the massage I needed the perfect combo of pressure /relaxation. I always leave feeling fantastic! And, they're super friendly! read more

I had a fantastic experience! Niko was amazing! She applied the perfect amount of pressure and made the whole session incredibly relaxing. My husband also got a massage and was very impressed. We will definitely be back! read more

Lisa is amazing! Chinese massage all the way! So happy I found this place. Absolutely does wonders for sore tight muscles and back pain.

This establishment is extremely clean and provided an amazing massage. I got the diamond package which included foot reflexology and scalp massage. After she was done, I have to say I haven't felt my back feel this great in a long time. read more

I came in for a 1 hour deep tissue/hot stone massage. There was no consultation. Didn't ask me where I would like to focus the massage. No awareness of tight muscles or knots. She just came in and got right to it. Rubbed my body with oil for an hour. TOTAL WASTE OF MY TIME. The only decent part was that she rubbed my head which relieved the headache I got from just laying there face down. Two stars for a decent 2 minute head rub. Otherwise, don't waste your time or money. There's way too many good places out there to be leaving a place like this all greased up. read more

I went for a massage and had a gift card with a balance of over $125 left on the card. The women at the front desk said they are no longer taking the gift card. "new ownership" even though all the signage says Elation Massage. She wanted me to additional money. This is extremely unethical. I left. read more

Great place with good massage and nice environment. Everyone here is professional and looks really professional. Will come back very soon.

This is not a business, it is a scam! They sold me two $500 gift cards saying that I will get points using them, after two months they don't accept their own gift cards, saying the system is changed! she stopped speaking English after I started complaining, such a terrible customer service. read more

I've been here twice before and received an amazing massage. I had a short membership under the previous owners. This review is to confirm it's literally hit or miss now that it's under new ownership. The new ownership "cancelled" my monthly membership and told me they are no longer honoring memberships. They continued to charge me $60/month for 5 months. I didn't notice because I was out of country and very busy. When I realized it, I went in and they did fix it but I had to go through the trouble of recouping the funds through my credit card company. So I gave them one more try last night and it was awful. I tried to request the therapist but they gave me their own pick. She asked if I wanted hard or medium pressure. I made sure to convey "hard". She asked if it was sufficient and I told her I could hardly feel it. The massage was a 3 out of 10. She was terrible and really has no business being a massage therapist. I wasn't going to even give a tip, but when I went to pay, I asked for change and they looked at me like I was cheap. I still gave her $10 anyway and they acted as if I was a cheapskate the way they looked at me. I will never go back here and for $70/hour, I recommend you don't either. read more

Called ahead and booked. Young lady on the phone stated they had availability. Showed up 15 min later for the appointment and was turned away saying they overbooked. read more

Wonderfuexperienve! I did the 90 minutes massage and 30 minutes facial package. My massues Nicole was very attentive, asking me several times if the pressure was good. My husband also did a 90 minute massage and loved it. The prices are very reasonable too. We'll definitely be returning. read more

I just moved to the area and after all the moving, I was due for a massage. I did the 1/2 foot and body massage combination for an hour with Zoe. She was AMAZING. She removed every kink on my lower back and shoulders. All this for $60 was definitely worth it. I highly recommend coming here. Can't wait to come back and get more done. read more

I had the best 90 minute massage ever yesterday. Not cheap though and no specials or discounts. But if any massage spa is worth it, it would be massage elation spa. I highly recommend this place. Try it. You won't be disappointed. read more

Amazing!! We live close by and had no idea this place existed. My wife and I love massages and had to go further in the past to find something. Not only did we find something close, it's so much better! Super clean, friendly, great customer service, and awesome massages. The prices are really good too. Feel lucky I'll be able to come back all the time! read more

Elation is fantastic! We've been coming here for over a year and the service is always amazing. Lisa and Lulu are great.

The place is modern and clean . Front desk lady didn't explain why she change the service I asked. The two stars were given to Sasa whom did her job well. My friend tried early birds . Front desk lady didn't tell her there are two prices. My friend got charged for the longer hour and higher price one. Customer should know ahead and choose. read more

I scheduled a same day 90 minute Combo appointment (1/2 reflexology, 1/2 massage). Mia was great with a deep/firm massage. This was my first visit to Elation Massage Spa -RB and after this visit, I'm sure it won't be my last. read more

Our preferred massage spot near our home. Always such kind genuine service. When you walk in you are graciously greeted and walked through to the room. Such an amazingly large space! & always clean. I feel such a good relaxing energy in the space. My partner and I both got the diamond elation package. Jack applied the perfect amount of pressure to my knots in my shoulders. His reflexology massage made me fall asleep! My partner thoroughly enjoyed his as well with Lindsey! I have also received a massage before from Candy who was top notch! Overall love this place and highly recommend for a relaxing recharge! read more

The best massage I ever had! And also the place is very clean and peaceful. Recommended!!

Amazing! Clean and so relaxing! The spa is lovely and everyone is so sweet. Loved it. Will definitely be back.
