I am incredibly picky…read moreabout getting massages because I like a relatively strong deep tissue massage and she really delivered! It's taken me a while to find a masseuse that's really listened to what I wanted and what my body was needing. When I first came in, she asked me what I wanted to focus on specifically and she also did a body assessment on me and recommend working on my hips and thighs first because my posture was askew that was part of the cause of my shoulders being out of balance. I was truly truly impressed. I can confidently say I will be back and will bring as many friends with me as I can. If you are looking for someone who cares about you and spending time on you please don't walk run to Ashiatsu. Carole is truly a joy and does a great job. Thank you

When we checked out, my girlfriend paid the masseuse the $240 for the massages and presented them with $20 for a tip. The lady seemed confused and we clarified $10 each. I read the business managers response to my girlfriend Brice's review and no clarification is needed. At checkout her precise verbage was that 20% was expected. We felt very uncomfortable and it was a very rude ending to what started out to be a great experience.

We were greeted with an immediate response of giving us directions as to what to do (take our shoes off at the door). My impression was she may not speak English well. The massages themselves were really good. The add on of the hot stone could have been a little longer, but overall we felt really good after...until...we went to pay. I had been told over the phone the price would be $240 so I brought $260. When I went to pay the lady made me feel horrible and embarrassed when she questioned my tip! She obviously could speak English when she told me 20% was expected! I said that is all I have and if they EXPECT a tip, they should include it in the price. I wish I had just taken the $20 back and told her if that wasn't good enough, I'd take it back! But, I didn't. I personally make $15 an hour, so this was a big spend for me and I was excited to experience it with my boyfriend only to have it ruined by rudeness. So, I don't really know what kind of rating to give. Physically, it was great, but emotionally it was horrible...a middle 3 is fair I think

As the name says, you'll get a nice massage here. Not outstanding. But nice…read more Aside from a decent massage, I like that you don't have to wait long for an appointment. (So far, same day if not as soon as you can get there. Probably because they aren't too busy.) For me, this is pretty important because I primarily get a massage after I've overdone it physically and am sore or tight (like after a very long drive.) I don't get them for pampering, which can be scheduled well in advance. I also like that you don't have to sign up for a membership. On the negative side (the reason for the loss of a star), communication is often challenging. English is definitely not their first language. So small talk or conversation beyond explaining how long you want, and how firm, and what areas to focus on is unlikely. I suspect if I spoke their language (Mandarin? Cantonese? Vietnamese?) it would be better.

From start to finish, Bliss made the first massage ever for my 64 year-old Mother this Mother's Day…read moreweekend very enjoyable. The owner was very communicative, accommodating, and understood the specific needs of my Mom. Eric, the masseuse, is very laid back, easy to talk to, and took the time to put my mother at ease and accommodate her requests during the massage. Mom said several times after her hour-long massage was done that she "feels like a new woman." She's been having some neck tension and spasms, and we wanted to treat her to a massage this Mother's Day to help alleviate some of that. This experience was so pleasurable for her and she notes that she will take Erin's recommendation and schedule a massage now once a month. Bravo! Thank you for helping us pamper our Mom in this very special way.

Okay, this is hands down (no pun intended!) the best massage in Columbia…read more Jennifer Brown is the Licensed Massage Therapy of Bliss Massage Therapy. She is located in the Personally Fit gym on Gadsen. There are about 5 reserved parking spots to the side as well as metered spots out front. You need to go to the back of the gym and turn right to find her. Inside, you have a relaxing seating area and then the massage room. She will give you your choice of music. If you are congested, she likes to use eucalyptus to open up those nasal passages. Just a little background on me: Today, I sat down and finally counted the # of massage therapists I have tried in Columbia for a deep tissue massage. The total? 8. Yup, at several other brick-and-mortars in the city. I like a true deep tissue massage, not gentle Swedish strokes though she does offer Swedish as well. She hits my tension knots every single time without missing and I consistently leave much more relaxed and relieved. Jen truly has a gift of a healing touch as well as a caring empathetic bedside manner to her. She will make you feel at ease instantly. I moved out of Cola recently, and I honestly wish I could have taken with me in my luggage. If you need tension relief, please visit her. If you're like me, you will leave with a goofy blissed-out smile and noodle-like body!

Dawn heard my concerns and addressed them by confirming where my muscle tightness was and focusing on those areas with a mix of heavy and light massage. There was one point where I had extreme tightness in my upper back and Dawn massaged some muscle up there and I felt it loosen the entire way down to my butt; I have never experienced a relief/release like that. I can honestly say that this massage experience changed my life as I will be seeking out that same relief from anything and everything. The atmosphere is also unmatched, cozy rooms with comfy sheets and blankets and fans to keep you at a comfortable temperature.
