Omg, I came back here yesterday. I know I said I would not come back but their prices are really good and this time I got Andy, I think Andy worked there for awhile now because I had him the first time, he's really good. He found a big knot on my neck and he was massaging it so hard that it hurts, I told him next time lol, then he went to other parts of the body. I guess with Andy, he knows where to apply pressure and that's why I like him. I was surprised that it only cost $65 for 90 minutes in a private room. Even though is in a private room, they have an old recliner that slumped down with curtains as a door, he does close the curtains all the way which is great for privacy but then after an hour when I turn around for him to do my face, arms and legs, that's when I got cold. It wasn't so bad because he was doing my feet and I think I fell asleep, I woke up drooling lol and the best part, Andy has smooth hands, not like most of them with sand paper hands. They always seem busy every time I go there, they should invest in new massage tables for the private room and have some air fresheners in the restroom, it has a funky smell, I think someone did a # 2 before I went in. Other than the freezing temperature, old recliner and the funky restroom, I would come back for Andy. Maybe I like coming back here is because even though I'm doing a body massage, at most places, they don't massage your feet but at Joy foot spa does. And is very affordable. The boss lady seems nice, and you pay afterwards, I would suggest giving the tips directly to your massage therapist instead of the lady boss, I'm not saying that she keeps some but I think it lets them know that you cared enough to hand it to them personally. And make sure you tipped them more than the 20 % y'all think is appropriate, is not, is not like a restaurant. And round it off by $10-$20 per hour, not $5,$6,$7,$8 or a gift card from Target ( I saw this at a different massage place) ridiculous! They prefer $$ cash money. I don't know about the other therapists but I'm pretty sure they're good too but if you want a good one, call for Andy. There's plenty of parking and the business next door is out of business, no more hearing those karate kids making all those noise lol read more

Joy Foot Spa - Current prices. Even though is inexpensive, you should tip them more. They make their earnings from our tips. So don't be a cheap azz. - Reflexology Near Me - Lakewood, California

Solid customer service and good services offered.. competitive rates and options. Will return,appreciate best service

Massage was amazing! The only downside was the noise. The space could benefit from a small décor refresh, and it would be great if the main door stayed closed during business hours. It was pretty loud hearing cars pass by, and one car alarm kept going off. I mentioned it to the staff and they closed the door, but it was later left open again. Overall, the massage itself was wonderful--just wish the environment had been more relaxing read more

They don't change the massage table cover. But I like their massage so I just bring my own cover

I use to come here a lot when they had some really great people who did good jobs, not so much now. Seems like the quality of service is poor. When the people who did a good job left I also left. I recently went back there 2xs since my regular massage therapist wasn't available and I can say it was not great at all. I was poked around like he was making meat loaf! I was having pain in my body and need relief, instead i kept jumping cause he made me feel so uncomfortable! I had to coach him and tell him how to go about helping me relax. The male was not a skilled massage therapist and I would say he was 30% good. I wont be going back there, but unfortunately I went back because all the other reflexology places look shady. Uggghh My cat could have done a better job! read more

Only complaint I have is the flea and or mosquito bites we get after leaving this place. Also, could be more sanitary if they changed the bedding after each patron was done. read more

I am getting a massage weekly at this place because my back and feet need this and prices are amazing.

Love this place, been here many times , love it ,the lady knows how to do it very nice , I like it hard and she did excellent job , coming back next week thank you read more

My masseuse was extremely rough. I had to keep telling him to ease up. He pinched my arms so hard it left bruises. I did not feel better afterwards. I think I was more tense. read more

Joy Foot Spa - Bruises from massage. - Reflexology Near Me - Lakewood, California

Jimmy and Miko were very good My Husband and I went for the first time and they were fantastic Best ever Jeff made us feel very comfortable sign us in read more

Been coming here for years after a friend introduced me to this location. Always feel relaxed here. They ensure to keep everyone quiet and the masseuse do not chit chat like other foot massage places. The pricing has increased since COVID but still reasonable. My go to is the 1 hr for $40 plus tip. I don't mind the pressure but if I feel it's to much I always tell them softer and they will adjust. I walk in with knots and walk out relaxed every time. They accept Venmo, cash, and card. read more

UPDATE: even after 10 years & the pandemic, I'm STILL coming here! I'm seeing so many outrageous reviews from people... even Elites... that I need to say something. First let's start with my experience. My experience has always been they are so accommodating with getting you in around the day and time that you want. I always call in advance and yes, sometimes I have to wait like 10 min in the waiting area but who cares? I know in 10 min I'll be in heaven and walking out feeling 10 years younger. LOL. I don't even have to ask for my massage person. They already know. In fact when I call, they will even say, oh he's not working today. What about this day? I never have to tell the workers that I don't like massaging my face or hair. They all know. They all remember. Now THAT'S service. The workers are super super nice and friendly. The place is always very neat and clean. The music is phenomenal. The best part? The price. You can't beat their price especially not with all the other perks that I mentioned. Now to address the nonsense. I can't BELIEVE that people could have the nerve to complain about the prices. Before the pandemic, it was $20/hr. You're telling me you know a place cheaper than this? Yeah right... After year 1 of pandemic, it went up to $25. Then another year it went up to $30. Umm... yeah! Duh! People have to make a living too. It's not just here but everywhere else in the world. Where have you been? University Of Karenville to get your masters in complaining? As far as the tipping chart goes, I didn't even notice it until people started posting pictures of it on Yelp. The tipping chart is extremely reasonable. The fact that they have to put one up has something to say about how society is now. Not everything is free in life people. Sorry but that's how I was raised. These people work hard for their money. I have no problem paying good tips to restaurant workers, gardeners, massage workers, plumbers, etc because I know manual labor is hard work. Corporations nowadays abuse their employees left and right (hence why you see all the workers going on strike). If you find a good worker out there, tell them thank you and be extra nice to them. Why? Because if not, then they're going to get burnt out and leave and then you're stuck with new hires that really are horrible. This last Christmas, I tipped my massage person my usual $20. I decided to go back and have him an extra $50. I said thank you for always helping me throughout the years. Espeically when I've hurt my back at work. I don't know what I'd do without you and I want you to know that I really really appreciate you. Have a wonderful holiday with your family. I really hope people give this place a fair chance... unless they are a Karen. Then please stay out. They don't need you and I sure as heck don't need you to be there ruining my 1 hour in heaven. Enjoy! read more

I have been going here for years, from it was only $20/hour for a foot massage and good tips were appreciated and not expected. Post pandemic has changed this place, for the worst. Not only did prices almost double, but now there's a tipping chart with expected tips based on length of time, not on how much the service was or how good the massage was. This was my first time coming back after a while and didn't notice the tip chart until after my venmo went through and the lady basically asked me for more money since I was below their chart! Wow!! If it's expected, then it's not a tip, is it? Just triple your pricing if that's what they want to get paid. This is after I gave them a second chance after getting literally beat up and bruised after getting a combo massage(see my pics for proof). This left an absolutely bad taste in my mouth. I hate to write reviews like this since I've been coming here for years, but I think their service has completely declined and it's all about the $$. Come here if If you don't mind masseuses who bruise up their clients and being chased down the street for more tips. read more

See all

This is the worst massage I've ever received. The "masseuse" didn't actually do anything except dig her elbow in my back and rub my lower back and arms with her forearm. They use lotion that dries out within seconds so it feels like rug burn from the friction. I have literal bruises on my back and all the knots that I came in with. This was also not full body as promised. She did zero work in my legs or feet. The "massage" was torture. To top it off, I still tipped 18% and the man at the front tried to intimidate me into paying more, made a belittling face and a few comments. I told him I could walk away and not pay any tip and then he changed his tone. I walked out of there more tense than when I walked in. This was a waste of money. Save your cash, Do not come here! read more

Peter is professional and great at his job! I always leave feeling better. The place is quiet and dimly lit. Prices are very reasonable and staff are friendly. read more

Great！During my trip to LA, I stumbled upon this cozy little gem, Joy Massage Spa. The staff here were incredibly welcoming, and their massage techniques were top-notch. I felt all the fatigue from days of traveling melt away. It's such a pity I live in the Bay Area; otherwise, I'd be a regular here! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a rejuvenating experience.Thx！ read more

The person was really hard on me and left marks and bruises on my back. I was in pain during the entire time he was working on my back. I informed the place and they did refund the money. So that was good. read more

I usually come 1-2 times a month with my mom and husband for the last few years or so. Tonight was the last straw. I came out worse than what I went in. My neck and back are killing me, i have a headache and I can't turn my head to the left. The guy who massaged me was super aggressive. He was massaging my head and kept pulling my hair. His elbow was deep in my neck and back. Again..I left there worse than what i went in. Never again. read more

Just went today and had the best massage ever. Wow I felt healed and had so much energy afterwards. My feet hurt but now it feels so relaxed and I sweat my whole body feels loose. Highly recommend this place and you can't beat the price. read more

This place takes Self Care to another level!! I went here for the first time this afternoon and I absolutely loved it!! This was by far THE Most relaxing massage I've ever had!! I will be making this a regular routine read more

I recently strained a back shoulder blade muscle while doing some heavy yard work and. I decided to get a good massage to help relax and release the tight upper back muscles. I called and had an appt within the hour and had a 40 min dream massage in the chair with "Peter". He doesn't speak English but was the best chair masseuse I've ever had. Thank you Peter, I'm now a regular! read more

Classic no frills cheap massage. 30 for 1 hour foot massage that spends 15inuts on head and neck, 30 minutes on feet , and 15 minutes on back. $30 + tip not bad. Foot water was a bit hot, maybe too much for some people. Make a reservation they were punctual when we went but if you get there early don't expect to start early as there is a tight schedule. read more

I went for the first time here, a day before Father's Day. In general, I love massages, and when the massage therapist first started, I enjoyed it. It was a different technique that I've ever had before so I endure the deep massage. On Father's Day morning, I couldn't move. My low back was in so much pain and stiffed. Over a week later, I'm still stiff and have to lay flat on my yoga mat. I've had a difficult time getting up after sitting down. At times, when going up or down the stairs, my low back almost colapses. I think it was too much pressure for my low back. I'm afraid to go back. I purchased a gift certificate for my husband but I'll just recommend the foot massage, just to be on the safe side. We all have different experience so maybe this was not for me. read more

Front Desk: I see all the reviews about them being rude. Yes I agree but I'm not there for them. So she /he can be rude and I don't care. Massage: Awesome massage for $25. They are thorough and gets the job done. Hygiene: They don't replace the sheet that everyone lays on. They do spray something whenever someone is done. I also noticed the towels doesn't get washed. Once used they go straight to the dryer, gets folded then back out. I hope the dryer is hot enough to kill any cooties from the previous person. This includes the ones that goes on your face once you're on your back. This is the price you get for paying $25. They also used to give out water after the service....not anymore! Despite all that I still go whenever I'm stressed out. read more

Jason did an amazing job I felt so much better after going in. My neck and back were tight and he worked it out so hard. The full hour at only $35 is where it's at! And the prices are fantastic! So calming and soothing. With the water feature and music and dim lights. Highly recommend! read more

Just finished my first massage session here at Joy Foot Spa & I absolutely recommend this massage spot !!! 10/10 ; they were available to see me right away ; I'm very thankful! Also, I was very satisfied with how very attentive to detail my masseuse was; he definitely got all the knots out of my foot! I will be back for sure (: read more

By far this is my favorite $20 foot massage place in the area. Never once had a problem with any of the masseuse and they all pretty much use the same technique. The only downfall is that sometimes it does get quite noisy but it's because they have so many customers in the foot massage area where it's open with no private rooms/curtains. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a nice cheap massage that's totally worth your money. Unfortunately they're not open right now during covid but hopefully soon! read more

The massages feel good. People are friendly and not too expensive. Located in a nice area.

If I could select no stars I would. Honestly it's my fault for not walking out when I knew I should but man oh man this was THEEE WORST massage I've ever had in life ! I will NEVER go back and am pissed I had to pay for it in the first place ! I took my husband for a couples massage for Father's Day . I was miserable but tried to just get through it for the sake of him enjoying his special day but the guy was sniffing and coughing the entire time. A worker in the background was coughing up phlegm and I literally said out loud "what the hell" . I was in pain the whole time . He dug his elbows in my spine.. was so rough there was no chance of relaxing. I can feel the bruises forming as today is the day after. I better not get sick from that guy . Overall I feel like I paid to get the crap beat out of me . Needless to say I'll never return but do yourself a favor and save your money! Unless you enjoy getting physically assaulted by a "masseuse" . Lastly, they were late starting our service and very unprofessional. I've attached a photo of my husbands back hours after the massage . Happy Father's Day babe.. sorry I paid to get you beat up lol read more

Joy Foot Spa - This was about 4 hours after his massage. I will add my bruises later when they show because I feel them forming now. - Reflexology Near Me - Lakewood, California

Easy to set appointments. Excellent service. Always leave feeling renewed and rejuvenated!

Always amazing. Staff is great. Always has me feeling amazing after. Best foot spa I've been to in a long time.

I won't be back here...I've requested two different people twice and they don't give you the person you requested. They lie and say that's them but it's not. The guy was so rough I got bruised :( it wasn't enjoyable.... I'd rather pay more money for better quality massage. read more

This place use to be great, my wife and I would travel from the high desert just to get a massage. We even told others who also traveled from the high desert to partake but the last time we went the experience was horrible, the therapist were not the same and their craft was unpolished. Even the receptionists was not the same guy and was very rude. The guy working on my wife kept smacking and burping as he chewed his gum and he smelled like cigarettes. The therapist were also very noisy, the whole experience was bad. In one review someone else had posted that the massage was painful, that is correct what they were doing hurt, it was not comfortable. read more

I usually come here to get a quick massage for relief and it's great. Been here multiple times. HOWEVER, I've never had such a bad experience as yesterday. An older woman with bangs and a ponytail gave me a massage, and I'm bruised... i was laying on my stomach and she was grinding her elbow into my spine...like why are you massaging my spine? It's all bone. I asked her to go softer and she did for like two strokes then went back to digging into my back with her elbow. It hurt so bad. Ontop of that, she was sick and coughing over me and even BURPED TWICE towards me. I'm really upset. I didn't want to tip at all but there is a $5 minimum Honestly not too sure if I can come back here anymore. They didn't even give water like they usually do. read more

I had some knots that the guy I think took off, I say I think cause now I'm left in pain, soreness and bruised on my upper back from how rough he was, so I'm confused whether it's gone or just made it worse. My back now is so sensitive to the touch, I cannot lay down, I can't wear and hoodies or jackets cause one touch to my neck and I'm in pain. The pain was worse than a tattoo and I have a few big ones, so the whole time getting "massaged" (more like torture) I was like wow I rather sit through another 8+ hours of getting tattooed than this. The only reason I give it two stars was the foot massage was the only thing that was okay. Will I come back no never. read more

I went here for the first time. I really enjoyed the massage. I left feeling relaxed. What I don't like is that they force you to pay a minimum of 5$ for the tip. Just add it to the price. I don't like feeling pressure to give the tip they want me to. read more

I have been coming here for years. I have really enjoyed. it's pretty hard to complain about paying 30$ for a 70 minute massage. But I just wanted to share my experience from yesterday so that others can be aware. My husband and I went in for a massage yesterday and the moment the guy ( Jason ) started my massage I knew it was goin got be bad. First off, the whole time he was eating a mint and no one wants to here someone smacking on candy while They are trying to relax. Second, his hands smelled so strong like smoke and he was massaging my face all around my nose and lips. And then last but the worst part of all, I am in SO much pain today because of his elbows. I tried to hint that I was in pain, even to the point of aching my whole back but he must have thought that was a good sign because it got even harder. At one point I thought I might throw up because it hurt so bad. Today I am very bruised and sore. Like I said, I've been coming for years and may still return but I will make sure I don't get the same person. I am hoping they read this because I think they have gotten less professional over the last few months and it's starting to show. read more

First time here and I loved it. My masseuse was named Tina and she applied perfect pressure. I will definitely will be back.

Omg I just had my first massage at this place and it was the best experience ever! I did the $20 foot reflexology massage which personally I think the title is misleading because it was basically a full body massage. Starts off with you on your back and feet soaking in warm water while they start with your head and shoulders. And then they do your arms, hands, legs, foot, back, lil bit of the booty, EVERYTHING!!! I've never felt so relaxed. The guy applied the perfect amount of pressure. Nothing too hard/rough but also not too soft. $20???!! A FULL body HOUR long massage??? Was literally too good to be true. I feel like a new person. I feel like my chakras are aligned. Idk never gotten a massage before so I don't have anything to compare it to but this EXCEEDED my expectations. Ughh I'm obsessed I will most definitely be coming back and bringing all my friends and family. THANK YOU JOY FOOT SPA FOR THE BEST MASSAGE EVER!!! read more

Very aggressive about tips. I left a $10 tip for a 60 minute massage. Was told that it wasn't enough. I told the receptionist to make it enough and walked out! If the tips are not enough raise the prices. read more
