The shop is on the north end of town, a block off of Main Street. It's in the same strip mall as the local DMV . The place was very clean. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the person who did my massage, but she was very good. I paid for a one hour massage with hot stones. It was an excellent massage. She started on my back, massaging from head to toe, really working my muscles. She was working my muscles so well, it actually felt like she was popping my muscles. It felt that good. She massaged completely from head to toe, including my neck, and even the soles of my feet. She used a wonderfully fragrant lotion, and the hot stones were just absolutely wonderful.. I asked for a medium massage, she did get a little bit hard a couple of times, but I immediately asked to go a little bit softer and she did We flipped over, and another great massage on the front. She massage my scalp, and she massaged my face with this same fragrant lotion, which was so amazingly relaxing. The massage on the front included my arms, as well as my hands, literally from top to bottom. At the end of the session, I was completely relaxed. This was the massage I needed. As relaxing as the massage was, there was no music in the massage room. Usually I get a light, relaxing music that makes the massage even more relaxing. That would've been nice, but it was so minor, it's not worth taking off any part of a star. I paid $80 for the hot stone massage and it was worth every penny. They do take credit cards, but there is a three dollar service charge. Not a big deal at all. I will be back the next time. I'm in town. Thanks

The price was reasonable at $70 for a one hour massage. The technique used here was totally different than Sacramento massage businesses.

A warm face towel would have been very handy and appreciated. Overall we had a great experience here.

The hot tub is incredible, but it is co-ed nude, which I don't mind, but be aware before you go (the owners do tell you that in advance). The massage was the crown jewel.

She was the first therapist who told me that my left trap was tighter than my right and to sleep more on my right side, and paid so much attention to all the places I needed extra care instead of just doing the regular fare.

I went in for a one-hour foot massage, and the experience exceeded my expectations. The therapist could tell I wasn't feeling my best and noticed how tense and stressed my body was.

I spend a lot of time hunched over a desk and don't get as much exercise as I should, and she immediately recognized where I was holding tension. She incorporated stretching and focused attention on those problem areas, and I left feeling absolutely amazing. If you pay cash, the one-hour foot massage is only $45--a fantastic value.

Came for my birthday here in August had an issue with them trying to honor it, they finally took me in the back I was there probably a half hour then I was interrupted in the MIDDLE of the massage by the man that works here (not sure if that's the owner) said that I was lying about the gift certificate that my Husband bought saying that that was not their gift certificates that they sell. At Christmas my husband was there for over 20 minutes trying to even purchase it and they didn't even know how to give him a gift certificate. After a few minutes of laying on the bed with this man coming back again still caling me a liar I decided to end massage. I went to the front desk to confront the man and he still kept being rude and saying they do not issue those gift certificates and I was lying. He also had two other employees call me and my husband a liar saying he did not buy this gift certificate here. Even though I had the receipt and the business card that came with my gift certificate. I have been here twice before and had a decent experience, but unfortunately I will never come back to this place again.

We had an amazing experience with our couples massage! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and comfortable. They took the time to ask about our specific needs, areas of tension, and preferred pressure, which made the experience feel personalized. Jennifer did a wonderful job working through all my tight muscles and knots, and the aromatherapy was an added bonus! I felt completely relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire session. My husband loved his massage as well! Afterward, we were treated to tea, water, and chocolate, which was such a thoughtful touch. We also really appreciated not feeling rushed before or after our session, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience. Having had some very expensive massages over the years, I can honestly say this experience was absolutely worth the money. The quality of the massage, attention to detail, and overall atmosphere exceeded our expectations. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and rejuvenated. We would definitely recommend it and look forward to coming back! read more

What a magical experience I had at Jennifer Reed Massage. After an evasive thoracic surgery, I had a healing massage done by both Jennifer and a fellow masseuse she brought in. The environment is quaint and gave the feeling of Victorian/farmhouse while smelling nice and had relaxing music playing. All of my senses were pleased! I've never had a healing nor a dual massage before and it was spectacular. They took extreme care of my body, that was in fact in pain and only a month into healing. I felt heard both before the massage, where we established what I was to expect, and after the massage, where we broke down what took place. I felt safe, cared for, and relaxed during the entire experience. I was even met with tea and chocolate after my massage. This was such a beautiful experience that I will be taking my mom back for a couples massage. I highly recommend! read more

If you are considering a massage in Mendocino I would HIGHLY recommend you see Jennifer. She is really great, I came there a month ago in need of some real healing related to a number of deaths in my family back to back. While I was there I got 2 massages with her, and came back from the Bay Area a month later for more. Really healing, felt amazing, she is very thoughtful, caring an amazing person who give an amazing massage. She is truly gifted and gives very freely of her gift. I got the 1 1/2 hour massage but she always puts what you need first (want more time? less time?) I would agree with the other reviewers and say best massage ever. You will not regret seeing her, and who can beat the cup of tea and chocolate waiting for you at the end :) read more

I would like to reccommend Jennifer to anyone. I have been going to her for an injury I sustained last June. I started seeing her in Septemberand what I found was a very comfortable and safe place to allow emotions and real pain suffered come up and then be resolved. Jennifer is a very kind and skilled prcatitioner. Her use of essential oils is of great benefit and the hot rocks at the end is really relaxing. She listens to what I want and is able to deliver a very specific treatment to the areas I have needed. I always leave feeling well taken care of. read more

I am one of Jennifer's regulars. She is kind hearted and giving. Her massage style exudes this way of being in the world. I always feel refreshed and restored leaving her special massage studio. I had a considerable knot in my neck. Jennifer was able to move it out and on its way. I have had 2 back surgeries and I have some resulting scar tissue. Jennifer has been able to break up some of the tissue and provide for more movement and comfort. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She is the best! read more

Doctors orders - I have poor circulation - getting a deep tissue massage is in part what the doctor ordered. I moved to Mendocino over 2 years ago and in need of someone who can do a proper "Deep Tissue" massage - and here she is.... I now see her every month - but not just for a massage she brings much of her holistic knowledge to the table and adds much more to a massage than just a massage. Thanks Jen!!!! I will see you next month!! read more

The office is easy to access and parking was available (although during weekends and tourist season it might be a good idea to allow 15 min to park before your appointment). Inside the waiting room was pleasant, the bathroom was clean and the treatment room smelled good (mild - not too strong) and had nice music. I arrived on time and Nicole was ready. She greeted me and invited me into a very cozy treatment room. After a short conversation (3 or 4 questions) about medical history, what brought me in and style preferences, she invited me to get on the table. Nicole started gently, probing and assessing to see what her training and my requests together suggested would be most helpful. From the first touch it was obvious that Nicole is a compassionate, sensitive, confident, experienced and well-trained massage therapist. The whole massage was relaxing and clearly theraputic. After the massage we discussed herbal supplements that might support my healing and I purchased a jar of Chawanprash. My personal reason for going in was to help recover from a serious UTI/kidney infection and get some support for side-effects from antibiotics (e.g. muscle aches, edema, constipation). Nicole knew exactly how to work with my body to ease into releasing the discomfort. She did a fabulous job of listening to my breath and following my body's clues about when to go deeper, linger longer or move on. As I walked out I noticed several things: 1. I could feel my deep muscle aches were gone. 2. I could see that there was a reduction of edema. 3. I knew already that I would be going back soon. BOTTOM LINE: If you want a truly therapeutic massage in Mendocino, you will be doing yourself a favor to go see Nicole.
