Came here and had an amazing experience. The customer service was great from start to finish very welcoming and professional. I got the Malai Thai massage and I highly recommend it. It's an oil-based massage with a Thai cream consistency and a light lavender scent that really helps you relax. What made it stand out was the sensation it gives off, which has both a warming and cooling effect, especially as you start to sweat, which felt really therapeutic. Overall, this is a great massage spot if you're looking to unwind and try something a little different. I'll definitely be coming back.

My husband signed us up for a couple massage for our anniversary. The place does not look like much from the outside but when you walk in it's really quite nice and serene. Note there's street parking only. With our package we got essential oils and hot stones included! Man, what a game changer! They also offer water and some tea. They give you sandals to change into. The two ladies who did our massages (I believe the couples massage is like a Thai massage style) were both great! They really worked the areas we wanted to focus on and ultimately got the whole body feeling less tense. It was a little hard/painful but that's what I wanted - they do check multiple times to make sure you're okay with the pressure level. The face pillow smelled like the scent I picked (eucalyptus) and when it came to the hot stones it just elevated the massage so much. The rooms/space is clean and it was such a great way to start our day. It was $270 for a 90 minute couples massage before tip. Highly highly recommend coming here!! The other massage options are competitive/fair and they do a really good job.

Super relaxing experience with friendly staff and a clean, calming environment. The massage was exactly what I needed and I left feeling so much better. Definitely coming back!

Got the Thai deep tissue massage. It was great and very comprehensive--even got muscles like quads often ignored in a 60min massage.

Do they play music? I prefer quiet....

Yes, they do play music and the tables are in one open room divided by curtains so you can occasionally hear others. It's still a very peaceful and relaxing environment.

What is the price for a migraine massage?

Just go to our website you can see prices. Thank you

Price includes tax and tip?

Found this place while scrolling through Instagram noticed it was in a clean safe area so I had to…read morecome try. Very welcoming, spacious and friendly I've been twice now first time was the body massage I don't think they paid attention to the body areas that I filled out on the clipboard so the second time I got the foot massage and it's basically the same thing as paying for the body massage.. Only downfall is when it comes to giving tip. They never seem satisfied, even though I did tip a good amount.

I've had this bookmarked to check out for years. I have had the worst calf and foot cramping for a…read moreweek or so, so today was the day. I called, they were friend and could see me right away. Didn't ask my name because they had caller id. I arrived on time, the only one there, and waited 15 minutes. No big deal. It may have just opened for day. Explained to the front desk the areas I'd like to focus on. They said no problem. 6-10 chair beds in one dimly lit room, good ambiance. Another person came in right after me and they sat us directly next to each other until the other person requested space. Massage was good, had to request more pressure. I specifically pointed to the places I wanted focus (forearm, thumb/hand, calf, Achilles, and foot & ball of foot -- all on the left side.) (also lower neck and behind my left ear to loosen the muscle near my eustachian tube) not only do I feel the right side was given the most attention, my left calf and Achilles weren't touched at all. Lots of attention paid to the feet and between the toes, shoulders and neck were nice too, but not evenly distributed. There were also supposed to be hot stones, but I don't think that was even done when i was laying flat. All and all, maybe a good massage if you're just looking for a general feel good rub, but don't go expecting transformation or anything mind blowing.

We came for the first time today under the new ownership. We weren't sure what to expect but once…read morewe got in we immediately noticed what the place was immaculate, much cleaner than before. It's a little odd they lock the doors so you have to ring the doorbell upon arriving. We got their 15 minutes before our appointment and waited but our appointment started right on time. I recommend that you call and make an appointment ahead of time. We each got the combination massage, which was $60 per person for a 40 minute foot massage and 30 minute body massage. Obviously the price increase is steep compared to what they used to charge, but the quality of the massage was exceptional. My partner and I were super relaxed and found that the massage quality, although great before, was even better than before. The body massage was like a deep tissue and a Swedish massage and we got so much of our knots out. There is still upstairs noise from people above, which can get annoying, and you can hear the stereos of those passing by in the car, including other street noise. We were impressed with our visit today and although we don't live around here anymore, we will make time to come back when we can.

My partner and I booked massages in advance and were placed in separate private rooms when we…read morearrived. The place was clean and simple, no fancy decor but inviting enough with dim lighting and gentle melodies playing in the background. Beware, you can hear through the walls -- cars honking outside, staff chatter (in Chinese) in the lobby and shared space with massage lounge seating, even my boyfriend's snoring in the room next to mine during our sessions. We got the combination massage (30 minutes foot/30 minutes body), and my experience was positive. Pressure wasn't consistent during the entire treatment, but for the most part it was on the deeper side and effective. The first half focused mainly on the back, plus neck, shoulders, and arms, as well as a bit of the legs. The second half, my masseur asked me to "turn over" as he left the room briefly. He meant not only to flip over to lie on my back but also to change positions so that my head would be at the foot of the bed. From there, he did a very detailed job on my legs, feet, and each individual toe, borderline painful but overall good. We paid upfront before our services, including a credit card fee (2.50 per massage). Afterward, we gave a cash tip. They have a sign at the front asking for $20 (with very friendly language), which is the typical amount we tip anyway. The staff was incredibly kind and professional, so I have no complaints.
