I think this place is called Sports Massage now. At least that's what the gigantic sign on the storefront reads and that's definitely what I got. Plus when she handed me her card, she crossed out Ni Hao but didn't write a new name.
This is a no frills spot. 35e for an hour. But if you have some major knots to be worked out, this is your spot. Do not come here for a soothing massage. This is definitely a sports massage - there's no denying it once you see the arms on the therapist. Guns! Deep deep deep tissue!
I had really bad lower back pain for the past two weeks. She kneaded into so many knots - admittedly at some point to near tears - but for the first time, I was pain free. Yes, I'm sore. Like I had an intense work out. Some areas are sensitive to touch. But I finally didn't have to take any pain medicines and muscle relaxers...so definitely well worth it.
Unlike other no-frills massage places, the therapist actually talked to me about the treatment, suggested some stretches, etc. She only speaks Dutch though. Hardly any English.
Will be back for sure. read more
