I really love the reflexology foot/body massage. I'd like to get the 90 minute massage. On this…read moretrip, I got a massage tech named KC and he was excellent. The head and facial massage part was really nice. Sometimes the techs just sort of scratch your head which I don't care for, but he really massaged my head. If you haven't tried this, I highly recommend it. You're in a open room with other beds so you may have other patrons getting massage at the same time. You are fully clothed. They soak your feet while they do the first part of the massage. They started at your head work down your arms then remove your feet from the water and do a reflexology treatment and then your legs then they flip you over and do the backside. It's a great massage! Unfortunately, I forgot my phone, so no pictures.

This place is clean and convenient, especially if you're looking for last-minute availability. I've…read morebeen here several times, and the experience has been inconsistent--sometimes it's great, other times just okay. One thing I've noticed is that the pressure varies quite a bit, even within the same session, which feels a bit unpredictable. The style leans more toward acupressure rather than a traditional massage focused on working through muscle knots with sustained thumb or deep tissue work. I did try to communicate that I was looking for more consistent, deeper pressure. While they adjusted somewhat, the technique still stayed within that acupressure approach. Overall, it's a decent option for convenience, but I wish there was more consistency in both pressure and technique between visits.

Also, it is a small business, with only two therapists and so feels more personal. The great reviews are well deserved! Jasmine was my therapist and made me feel at ease. She was friendly, professional, highly-skilled and intuitive. I'm a marathon runner and not a stranger to massage and this was one of the best, if not the best, massages I've ever experienced. I booked a 60 min Swedish massage but I was recovering from a migraine and Jasmine customized the massage accordingly to target points of tension. She used oils as per the massage description on the website, and I didn't feel greasy afterwards. I felt rejuvenated, and rid of my knots and tension. There are two rooms, nicely set up and both surprisingly big. A wonderful experience. Highly recommend.
