Credit cards take out fees from their tip and they probably take ages to make it to the right person. These workers have bills to pay, family's at home, no health benefits, and basically just wait for walk ins most of the day. Sorry Adam but your 20$ tip once a month ain't sh*t. So drop the credit card fees (why the hell would you pay with a credit card when you know cash is preferred at places like this? It's common sense). Pay cash and pay If you don't like it go back to the 100$ + tip massages elsewhere ok rant over , I think this place is legit, good massages, and no frills just as AI describes. Pay cash!

I've been coming to this location for about 5 years. Yes, the hourly rate is very underpriced…read morebecause it's expected to be made up with a large tip. Overall, very cheap and usually a pretty good massage. The masseuses don't speak very much English but that's not usually been an issue. I've had fine experiences except for my recent visit, which I feel obligated to share about so others don't go through the same thing. I asked for a deep tissue massage. It was probably the deepest massage I've ever gotten. Partway through, I could feel my skin starting to react to some oil. Then the masseuse Gail brought something out which felt like a rod and she kept pushing it against where my spine meets my neck. It was starting to get painful and overkill but then the hour was up. After the appointment, she kept saying my shoulder skin was very hard - when I felt it, I realized the whole area was simply swollen (perhaps an allergic reaction). Maybe that's what she interpreted that as a muscle issue - which she should have known better about - and that's why she went to town with the painful wooden stick (again, way too many times). I still paid $70 because she clearly worked hard. I went home and immediately saw my back was red, bruised, swollen, and my neck area had some sticky pus-y rash. I iced it for hours. Over the next two days, my neck area became infected with what is likely a second degree skin burn, according to a medical doctor friend. I've never asked for a refund for a massage before, but this time I tried. When I went back to the location, the one woman there would not give me any phone number when I tried to explain the issue and just kept repeating "make appointment online" before shutting the door. It was at first difficult to get through to any management to make a complaint - their local phone numbers, etc. only asked for a voicemail. EDIT: Management reached out to me via call that same day and they were able to offer me a refund. It's usually comp'd as a free massage for next time but they accommodated my request for a check since I will not be visiting Massage Ultra again. Overall, the masseuses do a good job and it is definitely worth the price. Beware of communication issues though so hopefully this type of accident doesn't happen to you.

Amy is a true professional and a good pleasant person as well. I doubt Amy ever has a bad day. She's always on the upswing. Happier than anyone I have ever met. Her massage skills are good and she uses the time wisely. I usually find an hour plenty of time to get my back in shape and my shoulders and arms functioning they way they should. Even though an hour is enough for the massage to work, I always find myself extending to 90 minutes when Amy is my masseuse. Amy gives a very relaxing massage.
