Before I could even get dressed, I was repeatedly asked how much I was going to tip and was told the tip had to be paid in cash. I had actually planned on leaving a generous tip, but being pressured and demanded to tip immediately changed that. Oh, and let's not forget that they also require you to pay for the massage upfront before the service even begins. When I questioned why I was being pressured over a tip, the employee tried to block the door and insisted that every customer is required to tip. Tipping should be voluntary, and situations like this make the overall experience very uncomfortable. Tipping culture is getting completely out of control, especially at some of these massage parlors.

I visited on a Saturday evening and got a one-hour deep tissue massage. The massage room was…read moresimple, clean and inviting with comfortable temperature and graceful piano melodies playing softly in the background during my session. I received excellent firm pressure from my masseuse as she did a thorough job working on the typical areas (back, shoulders, arms, calves), as well as my hamstrings, head, and a little bit of my feet. The use of her forearms and elbows was effective, and she even found and focused on the knots in my back. Service involved minimal communication, with limited english spoken, both at the front desk and during my treatment. I paid beforehand with a credit card, which included a $2 fee, and tipped in cash afterward. A pretty straightforward process. Parking in the Milpitas Square plaza was a pain. If you have an appointment on a weekend, I recommend coming early and giving yourself enough time to secure a spot.

The…read moremassage itself was decent nothing amazing, but it got the job done and helped work out some knots. The therapist was professional enough, the room was clean, and the ambiance was relaxing with decent music and lighting. What brought it down for me was the tipping pressure. She asked for my $20 tip after my session, which felt a bit pushy for the level of service I received. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't memorable either. For the price point, it's an okay option if you're in the area and need something convenient, but I probably won't be rushing back. Solid average experience.

Unfortunately, there was a significant communication issue, and despite explaining what we wanted, she ended up receiving only a foot massage for the entire hour. We didn't get the service we paid for or requested, and it completely ruined what was supposed to be a special experience for my mom. I understand that language barriers can happen, but it's important to make sure customers' requests are clearly understood before the service begins. I left feeling frustrated and disappointed. I hope the business improves communication with customers to prevent this from happening to others.

I have given this business multiple opportunities and have seen several different therapists over…read moretime, but unfortunately my experiences have been consistently mediocre. I was giving chances in hope I find a good therapist while filling my visit stamp card. One of the biggest challenges has been communication. I often find it difficult to effectively communicate the specific areas of pain and the massage techniques I need for relief. Even when I carefully mark the body diagram beforehand and explain my preferences, I leave uncertain whether my concerns were fully understood or addressed. For example, I specifically requested upper-body work using NO elbow pressure, but those requests were often disregarded. They also glide against my back so much I felt bruised. I also found that the combination of deep tissue and Swedish massage was not performed effectively to work on the fascia and remove knots properly. Instead of experiencing relief, I frequently felt increased soreness and discomfort within an hour after leaving my appointment. I was also disappointed by an experience with red light therapy. Before booking, I asked how the treatment would be incorporated into the session and was told it would be used throughout the full 60-minute appointment and moved to different areas. In reality, it was only used for approximately 30 minutes before being set aside for the remainder of the session. From a patient's perspective, understanding pain patterns, anatomy, physiology, and proper therapeutic techniques is critical to providing effective treatment. Based on my experiences, I often questioned whether some staff members had the level of training necessary to deliver personalized therapeutic care, esp when it is hard to be understood. Another difficult aspect is gratuity. At the end of a session, I often feel obligated to leave a tip because the service moment. However, after reflecting on the experience--or after the pain and discomfort set in later--I realize the treatment did not provide meaningful relief. This leaves me feeling conflicted, both for the therapist and for myself as a customer. Ultimately, when seeking massage therapy, health and well-being should be the priority. I hope management takes this feedback as an opportunity to improve therapist training, communication, and treatment customization so clients receive care that truly addresses their individual needs.

Masseuse: Gibb…read more Booking: Online booking the night before and it was very simple and convenient! 5/5 Interior: Cozy, complimentary tea, water, and candies. The rooms are equipped with relaxing music, adjustable lighting, and a warm massage table. There are also cubies for you to place your items and hooks for your clothes. There is also a robe in case you need to step out during the massage. Bathroom is very clean and the space was enjoyable. 5/5 Service: I got the 60 min Swedish massage and I should have booked for at least 90 minutes! They have you fill out a form on areas that you would like to work on and she did just that. She was phenomenal at locating the exact problem areas I had circled and this was by far the best massage I have ever had. I felt so amazing that I ended up purchasing a gift-card so I could go for the rest of the year! 5/5 FYI $500+ get 10% off, $300+ get 50% off which is a really good deal! 5.5/5 would recommend!

I called around 1:37 PM on a Friday hoping to book a couples massage for later that day, but they were fully booked. Fortunately, they had two openings available which was 2:15 PM and 6:00 PM. My partner encouraged me to go without him, so I took the 2:15 PM appointment. Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted by the receptionist, Josalyn (or Jocelyn... sorry if I misspelled your name!). Very pleasant on the phone and in-person. She had me fill out a form detailing the type of massage I wanted, pressure preference, areas of focus, and any add-ons I was interested in. I chose the 60-minute deep tissue massage with extra attention to my back, neck, and shoulders. My massage therapist, Gib, was absolutely amazing. Bless her hands because she really got to work on all the tension and knots in my upper back that I didn't even realize I had. There were even moments when we both laughed because the relief felt so good I'd let out an involuntary grunt. It was intense in the best possible way. The hour flew by, and I honestly wished I had booked a 90-minute or even 2-hour session. Now I know I'll need to plan ahead next time. Safe to say, I'll definitely be back, and hopefully next time my partner can experience it with me as well.

First the staff are warm, professional, and helpful every time I come in. I have used their services for foot massage, back massage, and my favorite, the massage where they walk on the back. I have a background in kinesiology and it is clear that the massage therapists are very knowledgeable in the musculoskeletal system and are very skilled in their techniques. Each time I come in, they focus on any request I have, for example my forearm was tight from my sport, and they were able to work on exactly what I needed. I left feeling so much more relaxed and comfortable. The atmosphere is always calm, including other patrons. Highly recommend!

The pressure was consistently excessive despite my repeated requests to ease up. Even after specifically asking them to avoid my lower back. They continued to target it causing sharp pain. The technique relied entirely on harsh use of elbows and forearms rather than hands making the entire session an uncomfortable and physically taxing ordeal. The experience turned from bad to worse at the front desk. I was already feeling dizzy and drained so I was trying to leave quickly. The staff stopped me to demand a tip, even though I had already prepared 20% in cash. After I handed it over, there was no "thank you" and no professional acknowledgment. Instead, I was met with a prolonged silent stare that felt completely hostile and awkward. I went in for therapeutic care and was met with physical pain and unprofessional rude behavior. I will absolutely not be returning.
