I just got the most amazing massage here, and wanted to leave a nice review and comment on a…read moreprevious review who was basing her gratuity on a percentage of the house fee. 15% tip would make sense if you had mediocre service at a mediocre restaurant. A server that takes your order and delivers your food and collects the bill might spend a total of 5 minutes with you during your 60 minute dining experience. Personal services like massage therapy however shouldn't be judged on the same spectrum. These highly trained individuals have to a minimum of 500 hours of schooling in order to receive their CMT. They spend the entire time paid for working on your body and providing 1 on 1 personal care. Additionally, many of these workers are 1099 contractors and only get paid when work is available to them. Subsequently, many of these workers rely heavily on their gratuities to live. The way I personally feel when I get personal services like a massage, haircut, manicure etc., I provide at least a prorated gratuity of $25 to $40 for each hour in addition to the house fee. If you can't afford this going in, then maybe you shouldn't be "treating" yourself to luxury personal services. Just my $.02

After a minor surgery on his calf, it's been tight & painful. Yoki was able to alleviate the pain & he feels more relaxed now.

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.

As a self-confessed massage addict, I can say Monica is by far the best massage therapist I've ever used. She finds tense muscles I didn't even know I had. She adjusts her technique and pressure depending on what I need at the moment. She has a repertoire of different types of therapy such as relaxing, Swedish, and deep muscle work. She is very personable and responsive to my needs. A big plus, too, is that she's not one of those practitioners who feel they have to keep a conversation going during my appointment. If I want to talk she's a great conversationalist, but if I want a quiet session she's comfortable with that as well. Last but not least, her pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend Monica for massage therapy.

Go to our room and not much is said. We get ready and decide to use the restroom before the hour plus massage. Throw on the robe in the room, and the the masseur literally yells at me. WHAT ARE YOU DOING THOSE ARENT FOR YOU! I was so confused. Any massage I have ever gone to has the robes in there for you. Moving on, during the massage there wasn't much technique and she walked out of the room at least 3/4 times. Even my partner mentioned it after, that my lady kept leaving me in there. Wasn't ask what type of massage we wanted, if we wanted hot stones or any extras which we wouldn have added. At the end I paid and was waiting for my partner. I handed my lady $25 for part tip and told her the rest was coming from the other person, She handed it back to me and said "ok they paying more tip?" The whole situation was awkward and unpleasant. And since, I have had a sore neck/shoulder blade area on the left for 3 days now. Highly don't recommend

I have been going to him for bodywork for over a year now, and I truly believe he has a natural gift of Healing. As a female, I wasn't sure about a male massage therapist at first, but I always feel very respected, comfortable and safe on his table. His touch has an amazing peaceful quality to it, which always leaves me feeling not just relaxed, but rejuvenated and restored mentally and physically. When getting a massage from Les, I often don't realize how truly relaxed I am until I have to come back to reality! Les has a quality of touch which separates him from other massage therapists out there. I always love Swedish massage, and ask Les to throw in some Deep Tissue work where I need it, which is great. Anything less than 90 minutes leaves me wanting more. I also learned about Craniosacral Therapy from him and have tried a few sessions. It is a great option for anyone who wishes to remain clothed, or perhaps has other special health needs. I look forward to having more CST in the future, although I adore the other modalities he offers! I have had many sessions from Les at other locations and am excited that he is now at Absolute Chiropractic. They have such an open, relaxed atmosphere with an emphasis on soulful healing - it is sure to be a perfect fit. Can't wait to book my next session!
