Best massage I have ever had and I highly recommend to everyone! Steve is clearly #1, and Sharmese is a close second. Both Steve and Sharmese are very experienced and spend the time with you to understand any issues before you get a massage. They are truly amazing! The space is crystal clean, welcoming, and comfortable and every precaution taken. I have never had any issue about safety. Both Steve and Sharmese's approach is warm, kind, and compassionate and they take the time and each has extensive expertise to understand and meet each client's needs and goals. The massage is always outstanding ... their skill is incredible! It was immensely therapeutic for me as it helped me greatly reduce my stress and relax deeply, as well as decrease my neck and back pain and increase my flexibility. I would strongly recommend both Steve and Sharmese at Restorative Massage and Wellness. Steve is a thoughtful, dedicated therapist that provides personalized treatment to his clients. He draws from a wealth of knowledge and experience along with completing the full doctorate program in physical therapy so Steve is beyond masseuse trained. I would highly recommend Steve to friends and family. I am regularly booked with Steve and find out well in advance if he is on vacation so I can book Sharmese as a backup. The desk staff is also excellent in working to get you in, if there are no openings, and you are waiting for a cancellation. True professional staff all around! I met Isaac my first time here who is the owner and a licensed trained masseuse too. Isaac treats the staff professionally because he truly understands what it takes to be #1 in this field! Parking on Washington Street is free, and if you cannot find a space, the side street has plenty of spaces as a backup.

I live in Norwood, and it takes me almost 50 min to get there. Then, I found "Fire and Ice." It is a lifesaver for me. Yes, it is not a Banya, and the steam is absolutely different. Yes, the price is higher, and it is a little expensive to go there once a week for a minimum of 4 hours. Yes, it is not a public one, and there is a different atmosphere. BUT, it is better than nothing! The quality is great, and the staff is super welcome, polite, and friendly. They follow all COVID regulations. Always clean and disinfect everything. I already recommended this place to a lot of my friends. Once again, it is not a banya. It is a sauna with a PRIVATE room, with a rest area with a table, microwave, kettle, TV, lounge chairs, etc. The price is awesome for what you get. PLUS, if you plan to go there a lot, you can get a Pack of hours with discounts.

My original plan to give 5 stars (because of the wonderful owner Mike) unfortunately turned into 1…read morestar because of the other employee, Brenda. Please use caution with her. I tried a variety of options and purchased packages for sauna and WBC. I was excited for these self-care packages to help me feel better overall. I had some significant joint and muscle discomfort and I was recommended WBC as a complementary therapy. My sessions with Mike were most excellent. They have six levels. After trying level 1 without feeling much effect, I got permission from my doctor to go to level 5 and 6 to improve the results. I would not have chosen this on my own without the ok from professionals. From the start, Brenda called me "crazy" for wanting to go to higher levels and showed intense pushback, both verbally and thru facial expressions, even though it is safe and I had full clearance. I repeatedly told her in person this is okay for me, but she kept pushing back and made my self-care experience extremely awkward and uncomfortable. Just because she is not brave enough to go to higher levels herself, it is inappropriate and annoying for her to dissuade others from doing so. On a side note, even though I did not have any contraindications, I noticed not all contraindications are listed on their website. For my final session, she refused again, even though I told her so many times in person I have the clearance to do so. Did that not register? I even e-mailed her a copy of the clearance. This became increasingly frustrating and I asked for a partial refund on the session that I chose to not ultimately use. In addition, I had a reiki session with her. While this was mostly uneventful, I picked up a smoky smell from her. I cannot say for sure whether she's a smoker, as I have no idea, but I definitely smelled the smokiness, but didn't feel comfortable asking her directly at the time. I just waited for the session to be over and took a shower when I got home. I did enjoy my sauna sessions at this place, especially the music hook-up in the infrared sauna, although there is no hook-up in the dry sauna. Again, it was a wonderful pleasure to see Mike the many times I did. He is a lovely man, even though Brenda said he made an "error in judgment" in letting me try a higher-level WBC. That is bogus. Mike was incredibly professional and consulted with me with care before every session. I'm glad I tried the higher level with him. Keep up the great work, Mike. I wish you continued success, but I had to be honest in sharing my experience with Brenda when you were away on vacation. You are a kind gentleman.

The two ladies took us in, you get ready in the room and after a couple minutes your masseuses come thru and get started. Now deep tissue was an extra $20 for the couple, we said sure, honestly didn't look at the price list but we went with the promo for couples massage. Not sure if that's just the standard Thai massage. The ladies went straight to work and i just say, they are some super strong ladies haha. I was in so much pain from the deep tissue massage that i was sore in my upper back / shoulders and calves for the next 2 days. I guess you can say no pain no gain. Definitely felt better. The calves hurt like hell when she was working out the tightness, i almost kicked her off haha. Overall one of the better deep tissue massages I've had in a long time. Will be back for another session for the lady and I.

We found Crystal Thai Spa & gave them a ring to see if they had any availability for walk-ins for 2 one hour massages. They gave us the green light & we headed over there in 20 minutes. They share a space with other businesses and when you arrive, it's up one flight of stairs. Our massage therapists wasted no time & went right into the massage. We did deep tissue & some parts were certainly a little uncomfortable, especially the areas that were tight, but super relieving afterwards. This was a wonderful massage & one of the better deep massages both of us have experienced in a very long time! We usually stick to more local spots to us but I'm glad we found this gem. Will definitely be returning soon. Price: couples massage 1 hr $210 card/ $200 cash. We did cash payment & Venmo'd tip. Parking: free street parking or can park in the back of the building.
