Since I gotta pay out of pocket for massage now, I thought I'd try Chinatown and see how it stands…read moreup against the rmt I've had over the years. I'm no expert but this was possibly shiatsu, although they told me this was Chinese massage, and it was different from the usual rmt in that they press on points as well as the usual moves. I was super happy with the service and value. Also the amount of effort she put into the job. I asked for 45 minutes which is $50 cash and seems a fairly standard price in Chinatown. The pace was much faster than I'm used to and it seemed that I almost got the usual 90 minutes worth in 45. Of course it's not the same, but quite impressive amount of work over the 45 minutes with no downtime or inefficiency. The room was small, clean and quiet, although I went in the evening when it wasn't busy. There was soft Chinese folk guitar twanging playing quietly in the room and the lighting was nice. The white disposable sheet on the table was great. I met two ladies when I went in, and it seemed like they were the only ones there. One was better at English. The one that massaged spoke only Chinese with rudimentary "ok" in English which was fine and I appreciated not wanting to talk. She ended up using the hot towels on my back which felt heavenly. I tipped $20 since that was all I had on my, but felt worth it compared to the usual $156 bill at the clinic with no tip. I'll be back and felt fantastic on the walk home and the next day.

After the soak and 10 Minutes in, came the constant interruptions of my masseuse, tending to other appointments coming in, making phone calls on her cell phone between touching me , talking to other patrons coming in. Did not hear or see the other masseuses cleaning their hands in a span of 5 seconds. Phone by my feet? Way to decompress hah. In the middle of my massage she asked if a male masseuse could replace me so she can tend to what it seem to b another appointment . I declined and then she proceeded to continue and then talk to a second appointment while being on her phone touching her cell phone and my feet. She then told the other man to undress and told him she would be there in 30 Minutes communicating from The other room. I got then moved To another room to complete my second half of the package and she left me there for another good long moment. She came back rushing,violently rubbing me quickly . Absolutely not peaceful at all. Then i said can you go Slower and she went softer. Then she got on the phone again speaking her language out loud massaging me With one hand . I asked her if she could take the call later she continued her call And ignored me and then she hung up and i asked her to stop. Then she kept saying no i will give u longer time i said no just stop . Will only pay for 30 Mins. Then she kept persuading me and i still declined. If u r looking for sanitary peaceful environment then skip this place. If u don't mind the hustle bustle then come on down.

As a reflexology addict, I have been to many foot spas for decades. I would say, this place was the…read moreworst so far. Many places are "hole in the wall" environment, which is the case here. But I do not mind it, because I focus on massage itself than luxurious embellishments which is not relevant for me as long as I have good, to-the-point deep tissue massage. I was here on a weekday few weeks ago, around 2pm. Getting appointment was easier than other reflexology places, as many places want advanced bookings. I asked for a package with body massage and reflexology here. It started with body massage - I expected deep tissue massage but it felt just gentle rubbing with slow kneading. So, I said to the masseur that I prefer more pressure - then in a few seconds, without any words, she started to apply pressures that were too strong to the point where I had to stop. I would say it was violent. I may be wrong, but I felt that she was upset by my asking for more pressure. It was too strong and later when I went home, I found bruise on the shoulder. I had to apply muscle pain relief ointment for a few days. And reflexology - I expected targeted pressure to specific points on the back of the feet, but the masseur kept rubbing my calf and instep. Again, I asked for pressure to the sole of my feet. She did not target pressure to the points - just rubbed harder on my sole a few minutes. Then she was back to gentle rubbing on my calf and instep. After the massage, she brought hot towel to wrap my feet to finish up, which was VERY hot. After this process, she threw the towels onto the floor, and left, that was it. I felt harmed rather than relaxed. And felt miserable. Probably, I had a bad luck, because many people review this place positively. But I just wanted to leave this review as there may be a gap between like-minded customers' expectations and what they can actually offer.

I was looking for a last minute place to have a massage to use up the rest of my benefits this year and stumbled upon Amaze Wellness. After reading the reviews I decided to give them a try. Appointments can be booked online and you will need a credit card to confirm your reservation. I opted for a 75min deep tissue massage. Day of massage, I was a bit skeptical at first due to the storefront of the massage place. They are located on the 2nd floor where you do have to take off your shoes upon entering. Never judge a book by its cover because as soon as I entered I was greeted by Nitchapatr who ushered me into a massage room. She gave me some hand sanitizer to use and left me alone to change out of my clothes. During the full body deep tissue massage Nitchapatr worked on some deep knots I had in my shoulder the most. She made sure that I was comfortable with the pressure throughout but knew that I was feeling some pain from my shoulder knots. She even offered to put Tiger Balm on me to make sure I was more comfortable. After the massage I quickly put back on my clothes and went out to pay. I was offered some Thai tea. Nitchapatr and I made small talk and she commented that I should likely come back for more treatments as my shoulder knots were quite deep. My body definitely felt the effects of the deep tissue massage. I felt tired afterwards but did feel great and had a good night of rest. Overall, great massage place, they definitely know their stuff and will treat whatever pain you are experiencing. Service was friendly and I did see that before and after my massage there were other people receiving services as well.

The finished product looked great but I didn't realize until I got home that she didn't properly exfoliate my feet. The nail polish chipped within days. Talk about cheap products!! Two weeks after I removed the nail polish from my nails, I realized that the tech ruined my nails. Firstly, she buffed them incorrectly so there were scratches and slight grooves on the surfaces of my nails. My nails were not like that before she did my manicure. Secondly the cheap nail polish she used stained my nails pink. I went into another nail salon to see if they could fix the damage to my nails. Even the technician looked in shock when she saw the shoddy work that was done on them. I will never go back. I can't believe I tipped these guys. P.S just so you know they double dipped with the cuticle oil just as I was finished my pedi knowing full well that the brush was used on other people's feet. Trust me I won't go back

The massage was so good, and Anton was very experienced and diligent. I checked in, and was treated to water or tea. After filling in a consent form, I was led to the massage quarter by Anton. It was a mattress on the ground with some pillows, with some see through curtains offering limited privacy. There were dimmed and colourful lights, with some groovy exotic background music. I was given a T-shirt and some loose drawstring pants to change, and then Anton walked me through the process. He told me to relax all my muscles - to not resist nor help him in my movements - and that he'd start from the bottom and move upwards. The massage lasted for an hour, and it was the right balance of intensity and comfort. Some parts were of stronger pressure, but when the massage ended, I was so relaxed that I was near asleep! I loved the experience, and will definitely return!
