I will definitely try them again to make sure this wasn't a fluke.

I just had the worst massage I've ever had. It's likely the masseuse has no certification because…read moreshe had absolutely no technique. She moved her hands at lighting speeds like a spaz and did not know how to work on any trouble areas because her hands were only in any given place for a split second. I ended it fifteen minutes early because i couldn't take it any more. It was just not relaxing. If that wasn't bad enough, she asked me for a $20 tip for an hour massage. What a joke.

Yesterday I had an amazing 90 minutes deep tissue massage. The massage therapist was very…read moreprofessional, attentive, and made me feel home once I arrived. She asked about my problem areas and adjusted the pressure perfectly throughout the session. The environment was clean, relaxing, and peaceful. After the massage, I felt much less tense, and the pain in my shoulders and neck was noticeably reduced. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a high-quality massage. I'll definitely come back with my wife.

The massage was only "ok" & barely had any pressure at all. The only nice thing was how nice the lady was in the beginning, but it got super awkward when my partner and I tipped $10 each therapist then switched and said it wasn't good enough. The worst part was that we even took out any extra $5 and then demanded more and told us to use our credit card to tip them more. We ended up being forced to tip a total of $30 (mind you this is over 20%+ tip for a forgettable massage) and they were still upset cause they wanted more that. So sad we won't be coming back again. I would give this place 1star, but the extra star was because the lady in the front was initially nice until the tip was forced on us.

It was $62 for an hour of half body and half feet, with hot stones (my fave). I told the woman where I wanted her to focus on the most, and she did an amazing job! She was attentive and handled my body with the utmost care. I almost fell asleep on the table, and that rarely happens for me. The staff were kind and courteous, and I really loved the smell of the lotions/oils they use. Normally it would give me a headache but it was a nice, light fragrance that was very aroma-therapeutic. I would love to go back for another next month. The prices weren't bad.

I paid for an hour long deep tissue massage. $70 is on the pricier side but a good massage is worth it. This one was not worth it. The massage tech didn't seem to know what she was doing. She didn't use any oil. She seemed to barely be touching me... It was like the brush of a butterfly wing. She just kept going back-and-forth back-and-forth over my back without any kind of a plan, and without any strength, and without any apparent knowledge of the musculature, I asked her to do it harder she did not. She asked if she could walk on my back and I let her do that she stayed up there for about 20 minutes. Just kind of walking back-and-forth not specifically seeming to target anything. I have an injury on my knee and I asked her to please not touch my knee, but she spent a good long time rubbing my knee and yanking on my leg, which was extremely painful. After this horrible experience, I reached out to management and asked if they could either comp me a massage or give me a discounted rate on another full body one hour massage so I could try a different technician and they have had the audacity to not even respond to my request. Terrible shoddy workmanship, and a terrible way to run a business. !!!! It took a week, but the business finally reached out to me! They offered me a complementary massage because of my terrible experience. I'm so grateful I feel like that's the right thing to do in this situation. Thank you so much!

Shirley is very talented, has very strong hands and has a deep understanding of the body. She was able to get some of my deep knots to the surface by massaging other parts of the body. I booked a two hour deep tissue and she definitely delivered. The place is professional and clean, but note that it is not a spa. I don't think I'd come here for couple massages or a "luxurious typical relaxing" experience, I'd come here for a truly relaxing massage that'll help heal your body. Also, this is not a cheap foot massage spot if that's what you're looking for. I think this is actually the perfect spot if you're looking for a real massage. Would definitely come again!

Hands down, pun intended, this was the BEST deep massage I have ever had. It had been over a year…read moresince my last massage which was given during a vacation. I lost my last local masseuse when he moved from San Mateo to Portugal some years ago & never found a replacement. Let me start by saying Shirley's massage Studio is very peaceful with high ceilings, lovely decorative touches and is painted in soothing colors. The soft music she plays in the background is very relaxing. Shirley is petite, but very strong and her massage techniques really helped to work out some serious knots and kinks that I had been storing up in my body. I know she is trained in a variety of massage techniques, but I requested a 90 minute, very deep one & she delivered. Not only was the massage phenomenal, but the additional touches of hot stones, as well as hot towels used to soothe & then remove oils as she finished each area, we're unexpected and contributed to the lovely experience. I will most definitely be back in the near future. Thank you Shirley!
