I can't recommend her highly enough, and am so glad I found her!

Didn't ask my name because they had caller id. I arrived on time, the only one there, and waited 15 minutes. No big deal. It may have just opened for day. Explained to the front desk the areas I'd like to focus on. They said no problem. 6-10 chair beds in one dimly lit room, good ambiance. Another person came in right after me and they sat us directly next to each other until the other person requested space. Massage was good, had to request more pressure. I specifically pointed to the places I wanted focus (forearm, thumb/hand, calf, Achilles, and foot & ball of foot -- all on the left side.) (also lower neck and behind my left ear to loosen the muscle near my eustachian tube) not only do I feel the right side was given the most attention, my left calf and Achilles weren't touched at all. Lots of attention paid to the feet and between the toes, shoulders and neck were nice too, but not evenly distributed. There were also supposed to be hot stones, but I don't think that was even done when i was laying flat. All and all, maybe a good massage if you're just looking for a general feel good rub, but don't go expecting transformation or anything mind blowing.

I said that I would definitely be there by 6:00; I was marked down for 5:45 in case I arrived early. I opted for the Thai Combination massage. Kris walked on my back and leg muscles, which were incredibly tight. I did not want my massage to end! I was given 10% off the total bill for my first visit. I was also given a loyalty card with a stamp; after 10 paid massages, I will get one for free! My only complaint is that it was not a full 90 minutes - more like 85. That may be because I was still filling out some paperwork at the scheduled start time. This shouldn't have been counted against me, but I can imagine this was not conveyed to Kris, who was likely just basing off the clock rather than a time. The Lakeshore Ave location is just one mile from my new apartment, so it will be easy to come back.

The massage itself was excellent, thoughtful pressure, very attentive to problem areas, and clearly done by someone who really knows what they're doing. I left feeling incredibly relaxed, with my muscles noticeably eased, especially in my shoulders and back. I also slept like a baby that night, which says everything. Pricing is reasonable for the quality, and it's easy to book. This is now one of my go-to spots when I need real relief (not just a light spa massage). Highly recommend if you're looking for a solid, authentic Thai massage in Oakland

I've experienced massages that were not enough pressure, and too much - but this fit right in the middle.
