Ok back to this review, here's the biggest issue I had with the place and why you see 3stars. They do not inform you either written or verbally that they charge a mandatory tip on top of the service. So while I was happy to tip at the end usually this is based on the service and up to the discretion of the customer. Again, if it had been written or conveyed to us in some format, that would have been ok and we could have decided what to do; however, at the end of the massage, I handed the lady a large bill to cover two foot massages for 60 min and she gave me change back. Then informed me of the mandatory tip value, I was surprised. More important, what if you bring a certain amount of money that can't cover the surprise mandatory tip at the end? People want to tip a good service, but when you surprise customers and demand it, that's when things can get awkward. I really wanted this to be the place I come weekly and recommend to others, not sure if I can now. Many things to think of regarding this surprise. Ambience - somewhat chaotic if I'm being truthful, many people coming in and out, so dont expect a quiet massage. Many people talking on the phone, customers waiting (watching videos on their phone with the audio on). Clean- better than I expected, bring your own towels if you want and maybe some wipes, because again it is covid season still. Therapists - they are really kind overall, do hard work, but again the tip thing above. This was unclear to us and some others if it was a random thing only told to a few people or if everyone was told about this. No conclusion could be made, you decide. Price - reasonable/average for places in that area. Sadly, this is a legit massage place vs the other odd massage parlours, so that definitely makes it hard to find similar places to try out. Overall, I may return, but that tip/price thing has to be clarified by the owner first.

My only issue was that…read moresometimes the masseuse would leave the room for something and I noticed she would leave the door ajar which stressed me out since I am laying naked on a table with a towel over me. Even if it's just for a few seconds I think it's important to prioritize customer privacy when we are in such a vulnerable position. Other than this small thing, I enjoyed the massage. The masseuse applied the perfect amount of pressure for me and was overall very friendly and sweet.

There is a $10 tip minimum. The whole place is cash only. Went for a 60 minute reflexology foot massage, which was great and much better than another I've had. The person I got was very strong and specific as to where she was massaging, and listened when I asked for softer on certain areas. I've gotten massages before that were just kind of the person ambling around pressing randomly, and that is not what I got here, luckily. She also used some kind of heated tool for 'lymphatic detoxification' she said, which felt stimulating on the legs. I asked for some extra attention to one heel and she did that. I think you need to say exactly what you want if you're looking for something specific, she understood me for the most part. I did not hear much noise from the street. But the workers do talk to each other at times and the front door has a cluster of bells. It's a bare bones but clean place.

Because they're new, very few people know about them. Absolutely no clients right now, but I'm sure this will change. I opted for an hour long foot massage because my feet have been hurting.

Throughout the massage he used a nice smelling oil, hot stones, and a hot towel toward the end. He really got into my pressure points, and worked out the knots that have taken up permanent residence in my shoulders.

We booked a 90-minute session, but it took about 10-20 minutes before we were brought in to start. Despite that delay, the session still ended exactly at the 90-minute mark, so we did not receive the full time we paid for. During the massage, both therapists frequently stopped, dropped items, whispered to each other, and repeated the same moves throughout the session--even during the foot reflexology--making it feel rushed. At the end, one therapist did not speak English and repeatedly pointed to the tip, making it clear she felt it wasn't enough. This made the situation very uncomfortable, especially given the quality of service. While the space looks improved and the front desk staff was friendly, the lack of professionalism during the massage outweighed the positives.

(Lyme disease - well versed in herbs and have been using all the Chinese herbs used to eradicate the bacteria ) I had high hopes of getting what I needed at this place due to quite a few articles and videos of said place. Upon getting there they did they have what I was looking for in stock (albizia mimosa bark he huanpi) and a couple other herbs. I grabbed astragulus, Chinese skullcap & the albizia bark. I was charged for roughly 300 grams of albizia bark $30. I should have went with my instinct and went over to flushing and dealt with NYTRT. (Tong ren tang) they are selling the same bark a pound for 11$ I could have gotten 3 pounds of mimosa albizia bark -I didn't even close to a pound yet triple the price 30$ they weigh it and say gram wise & make it sound like a good deal 50g for 5. You can get the same at NYTRT for 2.50. I won't be back and I read multiple comments because of the social media visibility they have started to take advantage of people and that is 100% fact. I would of just ordered it online myself but figured I'd go directly to the source since I had seen such good reviews of the owner (btw he was not there when I went) they also tried to sell me a tiny bag of ginseng for 50$ I immediately was like absolutely not. Sad to see such a "great" place turn greedy when people truly could benefit from using Chinese medicinal herbs.

The facility seems nice but the staff is all over the place. After waiting 1.5 hour in the lobby room, they told us to go to the rooms which were not yet cleaned! We told them that they were used and they took another 30 min to clean and set up. Then when we laid in the room, we waited for another 30 min for a total of 2.5 hours. We had a dinner reservation for mother's Day and had to push it twice to fit this booking in. The worst part is we got zero apologies and when I complained the representative told me to stop asking and go back in the room. They didn't seem to care about our bad experience being so delayed in the least. Totally appaling experience.

The scalp massage itself was great--the staff member who worked on me was skilled, and I felt relaxed throughout the entire process. I also really liked the bathroom decor, which added a nice touch to the overall experience. However, communication was a challenge. None of the staff spoke strong English, and there wasn't any visual guide or video to help explain the scalp analysis. It made it difficult to fully understand the results and recommendations. I ended up purchasing a scalp spray for $40, which I was told was 50% off from $80. I'm not entirely sure how accurate that was, especially after noticing the expiration date is October 2026--it left me a bit unsure about the value. In total, I paid around $180 including tip, which feels quite expensive for the experience. Overall, it's a relaxing treat, but probably more of an occasional self-care splurge rather than something I'd do regularly.
