Thai was amazing! He really listened to all my concerns and tailored the massage perfectly to what I needed. I left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and taken care of. Highly recommend read more

If you're looking to just relax this may not be the best place. I was looking for a local spot to try since the gem I found in Palo Alto was kinda far, so I stumbled on this place after a quick google search. 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. read more

I've been to Pleasanton Massage and bodywork a couple of times and have had a great experience both times. Thai is the owner of the place and does a great job caring for his clients. The massage studio is clean, beautiful calm and serene. Thai even provides water and some snacks for his clients. the massage itself is relaxing and therapeutic. Thai does a great job focusing on the knots and aches to really relieve the tension in tight muscles. He puts a lot of energy into understanding and catering to each client. I definitely felt better and much more relaxed after coming out of the massage. After the massage, Thai took some time to recommend some exercises and stretches to continue to practice at home to help alleviate the muscle tension and tightness. It was appreciated for his recommendations. The locations is a bit hard to find and is a unit within the Phoenix Salon. You'd need to text Thai when you get there and he will open the doors and let you in. He takes his job very seriously and is committed to delivering a great massage and catering it to each customer. He is very professional and the whole process was very enjoyable. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

Our family go-to masseuse for several years. Thai is awesome. He has helped with specific muscle issues or athletic strains. We are repeat customers and very glad we found him! read more

Thai is an amazing talented person! I have been suffering from sciatica since 2019 where it shifted to both sides! I found Thai randomly and he has been able to relieve my sciatica pain and has helped the pain in my neck and back. The massage studio is super nice and clean, I cannot say enough good things about Thai and his studio! read more

Thai is the absolute best ! I have some complicated muscular spasm and Thai always helps me . Very professional and knowledgeable.

Thai was amazing and communicated (when I was awake ) throughout the massage, making sure he was administering the right pressure. Very comfortable setting and a heated massage table is always a plus. He provided water before the massage and chocolate treats after. read more

Pleasanton Massage and Bodywork - Massage Therapy Near Me - Pleasanton, California

Thai is not the massage therapist for you if you're just looking for a rub down. He empathetically listens and takes into inventory of what you share about your body history and current physical state. Few professionals can address your needs with both care, sincerity and technique (which all take years of practice, dedication, and passion to develop). I can't speak highly enough of Thai. Side note: if you're looking to continue your day after the massage be it work or otherwise, what I really appreciated was the non-scented AND non sticky lotion that didn't require a shower to interrupt my day. read more

I was looking for a day spa to get massages for the hubby and myself when I stumbled upon this place. They're new and only had 5 reviews but they were all solid reviews. So... I gave them a try. I messaged for an appointment and Thai replied quickly. He is professional and courteous. We couldn't work out dates for a couple massage but he was available to see me on short notice. Thai asked great questions about any aches and pains or any sensitive areas. I told him about my neck and shoulder, and about my plantar fasciitis. He took the time to listen and explain patiently, before the massage. The massage was not only relaxing but also therapeutic. He spent time on my troubled areas and any other parts that I didn't know about (my lower back). He asked about the pressure and observed my reactions and adjusted accordingly. (Wow!!!) Although some areas he applied deeper pressure, it was still relaxing and I'm pretty sure I was snoring a couple of times. After the massage, he discussed what he worked on and also showed me things to do at home and what to look for the next day in regards to my plantar fasciitis. You can tell that Thai cares about his clients. This is the best massage therapists I've been to and I plan on coming back for sure! Thanks, Thai!! read more

What a treat! I have been wanting a massage and my friend recommended Thai. Thai's studio is located inside the Phenix Salon Studio. It's a serene and beautiful room. Thai was very professional. After I filled out a health questionnaire, he asked what I wanted out of the massage. My massage was wonderful. It was both relaxing and therapeutic. My muscles feel relaxed. Plus, my tight and sore spots feel a little looser. I recommend Thai for massages and will be back! read more

Thai has been my regular massage therapist for almost 2 years and I'm so excited he has his own spot! The spa is quiet, clean and close to Dublin, Livermore and San Ramon. Thai is very professional, he will ask lots of questions as he consults with you and check in periodically to make sure the pressure and massage style is as expected. He is quite strong, but can accommodate requests for light pressure if that is your preference. I've recommended him to several friends and they are now clients who see him regularly. Whether you are an athlete, or have other aches and pains that can benefit from regular massage, Thai is a top notch therapist! read more

See all

I decided it was time for a massage after months of not being able to or not feeling comfortable enough to due to COVID. I was a long time loyal client of massage chains, but I cancelled when COVID hit. Although it would have been easy to go back to the chains, I wanted to do my part and find a small business to support and luckily found this place. The stellar Yelp reviews are rightfully justified from my experience. I was very impressed with the ease of booking the appointment, cleanliness of the suite, and quality of the massage. The protocols in place made me feel very safe and because of that I will absolutely return. You will not be disappointed if you are looking for a clean and safe facility and professional massage. read more

Thai is amazing! I came in with no specific pain, just a desire to be a healthier human. Thai asked questions to assess the best kind of massage for me, then got to work. Ohhh my goodness!!!! Holy melt city! Thai was one of the best massages ever. He noticed things that other massage therapists never even bothered to comment on before and even gave me total body health and wellness tips. My massage was fun, relaxing, and ended with gourmet chocolates and cookies. I plan to be a returning customer for life! Thank you, Thai! read more

Thai is very experienced and knows how to tailor the massage to exactly what you want. He is very nice and respectful as well. Two hours flew by quickly and I felt great afterwards. read more

Took my Mom in for a massage with Thai. She had a 1 hr massage. She said Thai listened to her her needs and did a wonderful job. I will definitely be taking her back to see Thai again. read more

Just had a massage from Thai. He is wonderfully attentive, inquisitive, and skilled. I especially appreciated that he listened to my concerns and addressed them whilst checking in. A massage isn't a random rub down here while counting down the minutes. Thai has many techniques as tools in his toolkit and knows how to appropriately choose the right one with the right application and dosage to the client's needs. Empathetic listening is a rare tool in many professions, which is evident in Thai's high customer service skills in addition to the attention to detail in his massage work. I'll certainly be back. Another great unmentioned bit in other reviews- The massage oil doesn't smell or leave an unpleasant sticky residue, so you can be comfortable with the rest of your day without feeling like you need a shower before returning to work, etc. read more

Had a wonderful session with Thai. I felt very comfortable and he knows the right pressure to apply to my tension spots. Already thinking when to go next! read more

I have gone to Thai twice. Once with a frozen neck from sleeping wrong and once with a strained trap from working out. Each time I have left with increased mobility and a significantly lower level of discomfort. The thing I love most about Thai versus other massage therapist is that when you tell him what is bugging you, he actually only works on that and related muscle groups and is committed to help you feel better. Thai is supremely talented and I would highly recommend him if you are looking for a massage. read more

Great quality massage at a fair price. Thai always does a great job focusing on the areas of the body that I specify need more attention that day. It's a great blend of a sports massage and relaxing. I highly recommend Thai! read more

Thai is amazing and very knowledgeable! I booked "The Individual" with him as I was experiencing extreme major lower back pain and very limited mobility that had me in tears this morning. I could barely turn on my side without feeling the intense pain, but by the end, I was moving much, much easier. His pressure was perfect and I'm usually quite ticklish, but wasn't at all with him. I'd recommend him to everyone, so don't hesitate to book right away. read more

Coming here was best decision I've made in a long time. Just left here feeling 10x better thanks to Thai. Don't think about it, just go!

I've been seeing Thai for about two months now and he is amazing. I've seen a big increase in relaxation and hip mobility. On my most recent visit I was hit with a bout of anxiety (thanks GAD) and told him I was super anxious that day. He gave me such a quiet relaxing massage and it helped me calm down so much. I was even able to do a couple things I usually struggle with because I felt more mellow. Highly recommend. Great ambience, amazing masseuse! read more

Really great massage by Thai! He focused on my problem areas and I left my appointment with way less tension in my shoulder/upper back area than what I came in with. Feeling totally relaxed and will definitely be back again. Thai came highly recommended to me by my brother-in-law, and I already passed on my positive experience to my friends and family as well, and recommend Thai to anyone else who is looking for a great massage place. read more

I'm not even sure if I can accurately describe in words how superb my experience with Jaye was this morning, but let me try. I called last Thursday to schedule The Individual with Jaye (thank you to Thai for all you did to arrange it for me!). I guess they are not normally open on Mondays, but Jaye generously spent the morning of her day off working on me. Even though this was my first time there, she made me feel like such an important customer. After I completed the questionnaire, she spent time going over everything I noted to make sure she understood what my issues were, and she described her game plan for tackling each one. She had wonderful technique and hit all these muscles I'd never had work on before, which I believe is why I felt so good after the massage. Jaye also gave me explanations for my pain and tension and gave me tips on relief I can do at home. She remembered everything we had discussed in during the consult and addressed every probably area. The most amazing part is the amount of extra time Jaye generously gave me because she truly cares about my well-being. Now, I feel like I'm on a cloud, a feeling that I have heard other people describe but have only felt myself once. If I could afford to get massages on a regular basis, I would see Jaye every month. Thank you, Jaye! read more

Had my first appt with Thai and the experience was amazing. Nice little studio and very clean. Already scheduled my 2nd appt! Highly recommended. read more

tl;dr - whether it's a relaxing massage or muscle/nerve recovery, Thai is the best masseuse in the Bay Area. Thai has done what 2 physical therapists, other masseuses, and a doctor haven't been able to do - he's saved my entire body from a variety of physical issues. When I first came to him, I was desperate for some relief from my sciatica and cubital tunnel from years of lousy posture and not taking care of myself. I opted for "The Individual" massage with Thai - he confirmed it nearly immediately. The studio (in Phenix Salons) is very calming, extremely clean, and has a perfect ambiance. It's nothing like the sketchy / run down places in South Bay. Thai first has you fill out a professional medical questionnaire, and afterwards asked questions to really ensure that he knows that type of massage is best for you, how much pressure, and what pain areas to focus on. However, there were a few points I didn't touch upon and he even, through the massage, was able to identify that I had nerve damage and muscle knots, and helped calm them greatly. After the massage, he gave me some helpful follow-up advice for posture, as I'm a software engineer and can easily develop a sore back and neck through bad posture. I've gone back 5 or 6 times now since June, and he's consistently been the best masseuse I've ever had. Even after tip, his massages are also a far better deal than the other spas in the area -- I now regularly go to Thai instead of PTs and have felt considerable improvement in my body after every massage session. :) read more

Thai was great! He really listened to my health issues and worked on it. I feel way better. I also felt really safe thanks to all the covid protocols read more

Great Experience! 10/10 would recommend this place. i gifted my boyfriend a couples massage, it was my first one and it was everything i expected. read more

On my way to hike half dome and got a 90 minute massage from Thai. Extremely professional , great customer service and a fantastic massage. Thai paid attention to what you wanted done and genuinely cared after to make sure the results were achieved . Pressure was adjusted to the need. Couldn't be happier. Will definitely be back but would like to see them on Groupon :-) read more

One of the best massages I've had! Thai is great and applied the perfect amount of pressure according to my needs. It is usually hard for me find someone that uses the right amount of pressure, but Thai nailed it. I felt very safe because of the COVID protocols and you can tell he really just wants to make sure his clients are comfortable. I feel so relaxed and I will definitely be back. Thank you Thai! read more

I have to agree with all the other five star ratings. I got a gift card for a massage here and I made an appointment with Thai. He listens and pays attention to the areas of your body that need work. He checks in to see to what is working or not. It was a wonderful massage and he definitely has another customer. I highly recommend. read more

Thai is great! Cares about his clients. I came in with the worst stiff neck, I have ever had yesterday that had been getting worse for 4 days. I requested he focus on my neck and supporting muscles. Unlike most places thats all he focused on and at the end of the hour he asked how it was doing and spent a few extra minutes working on the areas that still bugged be most. I left with increased flexibility in my neck and greatly decreased discomfort. Overnight, my neck has continued to improve. I will not be wasting my time and money at cookie cutter masage places anymore. Thai is legit and I highly recommend him. read more

I've been seeing Thai for about a year now and cannot recommend him enough. He listens to his clients and ensures his massages suit their needs, whether for relaxation or recovery. He is personable and professional, creating a no-stress environment. I can confidently say that his massage therapy has helped fix issues with my back, shoulder, and overall posture. Thai takes pride in what he does and it shows in every massage he gives. You won't regret your time with him. read more

My fiancé and I came here for a couples massage and didn't want to leave! These two are AMAZING massage therapists and we are so happy we found them. We loved how cozy the space was and how every detail was thought out. The therapists applied the perfect amount of pressure and really listened to what we needed worked. So happy we found them and we will definitely be back! 10/10. read more

Amazing place . Clean and all Covid restrictions followed thoroughly . Thai is a great therapist . He worked through all my pain areas and I feel so great after the massage . It's a place worth for every penny you spend . Highly recommend! read more

Thai is so nice and knowledgeable. He had all the right safeguards in place to make sure it was safe and comfortable. He listened to my areas of concern and checked in throughout my massage. His space was immaculate and comfortable. This is the best massage I've had in the Bay Area and I've had several. I highly recommend Thai. read more

Thai was wonderful! Not only did he make sure he understood what I felt I needed, he also educated me on how to improve the problem areas. Besides being a great massage therapist he also matched my energy by picking up on queues indicating when I wanted to be social, when I wanted to focus on the massage and when I was feeling discomfort. His space was very inviting and he was ver accommodating. I felt comfortable the whole time. After the session he made sure to educate me on his findings. I will be booking another appointment soon!! read more

It's nice to find a massage therapist that listened to me and what I wanted. The attention to detail really impressed me. Table warmer, beautiful space, even got some godiva chocolates at the end! You cant go wrong with Thai. read more

I was lucky enough to have Jaye work on me monthly for over a year. She always listened to my requests with regard to which areas I wanted or needed her focus on. I always felt like she and I could chat about my needs and she would tailor the massage differently every time as needed. It was sad to move away and have to find a new therapist. I haven't been fortunate enough to find the same healing hands I found with Jaye. read more

Very good experience! Thai was great, he really listened and focus on the specific parts that were affecting my pain. It was a very welcoming and relaxing environment would recommend to everyone super nice will be back! read more
