I was so relaxed during the massage that all of the tabs in my head got quiet. My husband said he couldn't remember the first part of the massage because he practically melted. They gave a nice scalp and face massage to finish off the experience, and we really enjoyed the hand and foot massage as well. Staff was professional and asked how we were doing, and there was hot tea at the end as well. For the price (including tip), it was such a great deal for two people. We are planning to come back regularly for their services.

This was the worst experience I've ever had during a massage. In all fairness I came here two other times and had a wonderful experience but I was not given the lady I had today the last time I got the same woman both days. But today I basically paid to have oil rubbed on my body this could never qualify as a massage I kept trying to communicate with my massage therapist but she doesn't speak English she pulled out her phone to translate and still was not following my directions I kept asking her to go get the gentleman from the front so he could translate she would not. I literally sat up on the bed and was telling her to go get the gentleman from the front she just kept rubbing oil on me as if I wasn't literally sitting up. I called the front numerous times got no answer so I got off the table and as I was getting dressed finally received a return call. I told him what had happened that I came in because I was in a lot of pain from sleep wrong and I can't sleep as a result and that the massage therapist was not listening to me and that I had been trying to call to get assistance. I was offered no apology and no remedy for what occurred I also was offered no discount and asked to pay full price for my service which I did so I could be done with this place. I told them I would never ever come back to this place and I don't recommend anyone else coming here either. She also put some oil on my face which I didn't know she was going to do that has now caused me to break out and my massage finished 10 minutes ago. But I told her not to put anything on my face as I have really sensitive skin and I had my eyes closed and she did it anyway like I wasn't even talking to her. Then I started wiping it off and she hands me a dry tissue which was no help. I am completely upset and disgusted by my experience and I do not recommend anyone visiting this place take your money elsewhere!!

Unfortunately my…read moredoctors weren't paying attention to the issues I was describing, but going to The Art of Massage ended up changing my life because the therapist could actually feel the areas that were tight, needed to be worked on, or were tender (before me even saying so). The massage therapist at The Art of Massage has expert hands and knowledge, and also communicated back to me so that I could in turn also communicate the issues to my doctors. This gave me the confidence to describe the pain areas to my doctors and narrow down my diagnosis! Even though my treatment plan is long-term and I still have a ways to go, my recent flare-up has subsided; I no longer feel the suffocating discomfort I was feeling, particularly in the neck and shoulder areas, which is a huge improvement. I recommend The Art of Massage because not only will the massage therapist listen to your needs and problems, but they will also make you feel optimistic and hopeful, and gave you other health-conscious recommendations for a holistic approach to treatment. This has definitely opened new doors for me because I can focus on the next stages of my health, and I'm certain it can have the same benefits for you/other persons, so don't hesitate to give it a try. -Diana
