    If you're looking for a cheap massage and you're in the mall or nearby Massage Journey is a good place to go. Just keep in mind, they aren't some kind spa, wellness center, super professional therapists...it's a massage in the mall. You can pay $85/hr elsewhere or pay $50 here. I think if you keep your expectations in the right place and patiently communicate your needs you'll be fine. Harder, softer, no elbows, focus on lower back, all that is understood with their minimal English and that's all you pretty much need. Full body massages done in closed off areas and they can bring you a heat pack as well which is nice. In the end, I walk out with my knots worked out and feeling better and having saved a lot of money. There are some staff who are a lot stronger than others and some staff who are softer. Sometimes it's hard to find the right match but it should never feel like suffering or like you're just being patted on the back. I've seen someone literally stand up and say, "No, too hard." after already expressing this and another staff came and gave the massage and the customer was happy. TIPS: go at the end of your shopping trip because you will have creases on your face from the chair and the paper towel they use over the cushion. Sometimes they will work on your head so if you don't want your hair touched just let them know. If you feel like they don't understand your needs/requests pull your head up away from the chair/table and speak in few direct words..it's always worked for me. I've heard customers say things really fast while their face is in the cushion...it's difficult even for me to understand that. Tips are cash only and they do have a restroom in the back. Weekends are pretty busy for chair and foot massage but it's usually only 5-10 minute wait. Weeknights are empty. In the end, i think it's about expectations. It's a hard job that I would never be able to do so I'm just grateful for an affordable place that I can turn to for a quick massage. Yeah there's Massage Envy (although I'd highly NOT recommend it given the news..) or a higher end spa and you will receive much better service but sometimes this hits the spot.

    I've been to this location a few times, and each time was an enjoyable experience. The massage…read moretherapists here are fantastic. However, the last massage I had with Ronny was especially wonderful. I'd been struggling with shoulder pain for months, which I constantly thought was going to "get better any day now." It didn't. After one session with Ronny (though I was nervous for him to even massage near that area), my shoulder pain was gone and hasn't returned. It's as if I never had that shoulder pain for 6+ months! I was shocked and, of course, regretted not making an appointment with Ronny sooner. I'll definitely book with him again.

    Really unprofessional experience…read more I have Ben a long time customer. Always left a nice tip usually very polite people. But not professional at all what they did here. I had missed 3 appointments due to either traffic , etc. out of maybe 20-40 visits throughout my time there. Long story short, without any communication they blocked me :) What they fail to understand is that I valued them as a business and referred many people to them. Having a serious medical issue I was a regular customer. Missing appointments is not good, but blocking your customer without any form of communication. Not professional or good. Spoke with the front desk , they were very passive aggressive and tried to reason their blocking me because I had missed three consecutive appointments. I had always tried my best to communicate when I could not make it, but if I failed I apologize. She explained that my calls were always 30 min before. Yes, if I cancelled due to not being able to make it in time while driving in from work, you can let me know that I need to pay full price. I must have called on the days where I had extreme discomfort and was running behind but couldn't think of going without a massage. Sometimes I didn't end up making it, my fault. Maybe my pain got in the way of reality thinking if I could actually make it, but it's not like me to take for granted the people that help me with my issues. The masseuses here are good, no doubt. I have actually paid for an appointment that I missed in the past out of my own good will. But I was never asked to compensate or even a phone call. Thank you for the passive aggressive front office communication. You may have good masseuses, but not professional business practices. Having a real medical issue, you left a good customer hurt. Simple communication and asking me to pay for missed appointments, which I have done out of my own good will would have felt better! Cannot support, will not recommend. Unfortunate, but there are other options. Many of the masseuses here will actually give their phone number because they are not paid well. Just talk to one. They will come to your house for a much better price.... The masseuses, due to the business structure, don't see much to take home for their hard work. Sad but true. Good luck to everyone!

I was so happy she values her customer's needs. When I mentioned I had a gift card, she made sure it was something she honored before she made any promises(which I really appreciated). As I entered the small waiting area, I noticed a change in the decor, it was simple & welcoming. What was also nice was the prompt & professional service of having me in the room at 11:30am & not waiting. My masseur was Jimmy, he had a gentle yet effective technique. I didn't realize how tight & tense my shoulders were until he worked on my joints & muscles. Jimmy also listened when my right shoulder was more sensitive, he took a quick break from working on that side but then tried a different technique to get that knot out. I couldn't be happier but realized I need more massages so I booked another appt. w/Jimmy. Thanks Amador Spa for realizing self care is so important & for helping me release the tension on my shoulders.

    We called the day of to book an appointment for three of us (me, my sister, my mom)…read more We got the 5 pm slot as we requested and were excited for an over due massage. Massage was great, and it was very relaxing. The part that turned me off was when it came to pay they didn't appreciate my tip which was 14 % and insisted I pay 17% tip as listed on their tip suggestion list that they have printed on a wall. It became a bit awkward and we did pay the suggested amount but don't think I would return based on that.

    This is the worst massage I've ever had. I've never once walked out in the middle of a massage…read morebefore but here I did. I originally requested 90 mins deep tissue. The lady agrees then, when I'm face down on the bed she asks me it vitiligo was infectious? I tell her no, but I would have understood if she wasn't comfortable continuing. But she agrees to continue, and legit for 20-30 mins just very lightly moves her hand around my back on top of the blanket. I'm already getting annoyed then but I figured I can hold off to see if it'll get better. It doesn't. She then puts on gloves (which whatever, I get it.) But when she does she starts putting oil on, and its literally so uncomfortable, as its like zero pressure, and for some unknown reason, feels the need to put oil near my stomach and underarm area? Okay, at that point I'm getting mad but I asked her to please do it harder. She agrees and again literally just touches my sides, lower back with oil doing nothing. At that point, I just stopped her at 1 hour mark. She gets the hot towel and wipes my back down and she tries to continue, I tell her to stop again, this time I'm propped up already on my elbows and told her to stop. She stops but then asks if Im really angry at her. Well yeah. Then she offers to remove her gloves and continue the next 30 minutes. Seriously? I didnt care about the gloves its the not doing what was asked for. I told her that im just done i dont like anything about this. When I get up and leave I paid her $70. $60 for the worst hour of massage ive ever had the displeasure of paying for and $10 to at least acknowledge that she did... something? I didnt want me not tipping is just me being cheap, its me being pissed the fuck off that im still in pain and I wasted money and time being there. If you want to go there to be discriminated upon and have strange session of someone lightly placing oil on your body you should go there.

I…read moreusually get a massage every other week was my first time at this place The lady that worked there, she does not know how to massage at all. After a few minutes. She asked me if he was interested in happy ending, which I said I'm not and I said massage here and she start telling me about her life and how difficult it is the owner the place does not pay the employees, unless they make a good tip, they can keep the tip so I felt bad. I still paid her and give her a tip and walked out and felt really bad for the lady that was working there anyways.

They are very courteous people, but I just wanted to relax and enjoy the massage and calming sounds they put on. Nope, constantly asking questions I felt like it was more of an interrogation. It was questions about my personal life and work. I do not want to talk about that as this is my time . And I don't know how you tell someone that nicely, so I just rolled with it. I do not like to share certain personal things with people I do not know. I tried to be short in my answers in hopes he would figure out that I didn't want to talk, but nope it kept coming. And it is hard to talk with those covers they have on the pillow you rest your face on. The overall massage was okay. I didn't care for it .i think I would've had a better massage at Massage Envy. The mobility movements were good. But I didn't leave feeling like wow I feel so good and relaxed...that's how I felt when I left the Palo Alto spot, so I guess the hunt for a local spot continues.
