My husband was impressed as he normally is not with male masseuses. We didn't get the same moves/routines even though we both had the deep tissue massage so know that your masseuse may work on a specific area as needed. Mine gave a great head massage while hubby didn't get one, but his used the rails and climbed on top to go deep on my husband's tight thighs. Would return again. Thank you!

GREEDY AND UNPROFESSIONAL!…read more I've been here three times, but after my last visit, I won't be returning. I paid $80 for a 60-minute massage, which was decent but nothing special. The room was cold, and despite mentioning it, no effort was made to make me more comfortable. The biggest issue is their tipping practices. On my second visit, the staff took more money from my card than I authorized, and I had to request a refund. On my first visit, multiple staff members watched me to see how much I would tip, and on my third visit, the therapist outright demanded more than I was willing to give. I had hoped these were isolated incidents, but after checking reviews, I realized this is a pattern--they have a reputation for pressuring customers for tips. Tipping should be a choice, not an obligation. For the price, I expect better service and professionalism.

I have been dealing with back pain for weeks and randomly decided to go here to get a massage since…read morethey had a lower back pain therapy service listed on their page. I was not disappointed. My masseuse Nina was very focused from the beginning of the treatment. She asked me where my problem areas were before the service, and a couple of times again during the service. She asked me if there was any area that needed more attention after she focused on my back, and I told her my shoulders since I work at an office job. I think I'm just greedy I want everything rubbed for a while lol. Anyway she dug in and even climbed the table to apply more pressure at times. She lightened the pressure when I asked her to, and even informed me of where she felt the most knots. I would say if you want bells and whistles, then you may need to go somewhere else. But if you want a no frills, focused, deep massage that results in pain relief....you should give this place a try. Tell her Yolanda sent you ;-).

We were able to book an appointment relatively quickly. The interior of the business looks quite…read morenice, though it does have a bit of a rushed-still-in-progress feeling. For example, there was only a single light in the massage room that was hanging in front of where clothes are hung and when it was touched it flickered off and on. The massage room was also quite cold. The massage quality was quite good. They gave us little candies as we departed, and the candies were excellent, haha. Space: 3 Massage: 4 Candies: 5

If I'm ever feeling in need of tlc this is where I come. No matter what I always leave feeling calm, relaxed, rejuvenated, and frankly just taken care of. Every staff member here is extremely respectful and kind. They're hard working but I have never heard or seen any kind of negativity from any of them and I think that's rare in nowadays. They are so aware of the details that add up and create the best experience. The whole place low lit (still can see just fine), cozy, smells fresh, and light music playing. If you come here maybe three times they'll know your name. Every time without fail, I come out of the massage and there is a cup of tea or a bottle of water waiting for me at the front door desk. I cannot express how everyone should be coming here. Genuinely, over any other place, this is the best.

I've been a regular client here and always had positive experiences and great massages, but…read moresomething very upsetting happened recently that I feel obligated to share. During a massage, I removed my anniversary ring --a custom-designed blue diamond ring from my 10th anniversary--and placed it on the provided tray before the session began. After the massage, the ring was gone. I hadn't left the room, and we searched the space and my belongings thoroughly. The staff were cooperative and said no one turned it in. A police report was filed. Unfortunately, I still don't have answers or closure. I'm sharing this not to assign blame, but to strongly urge others to keep valuables securely on their person or avoid bringing them at all. This has been a painful and ongoing experience, and I hope no one else has to go through the same.

My friend and I were so excited to try this place because of the high reviews and limited places…read moreto select from in the area. We did the sauna and facials. Well needless to say, we will be on the hunt for a better spot- FOR SURE. Here's what our feedback was to the establishment since they asked, and I decided to share here in case it's helpful to anyone thinking about going here: "The overall experience was disappointing and did not meet the standards expected of a professional wellness or spa environment. The walk between buildings felt awkward and disjointed, and the areas where services were provided were visibly unclean. This immediately detracted from the sense of calm and comfort that clients typically seek when booking spa services. The sauna instructions were overly complicated and nonintuitive. Rather than supporting a seamless, stress-free experience, the setup required unnecessary effort and attention at a time when guests should be able to arrive, decompress, and enjoy the service. One of the facials was particularly concerning. The provider fell out of her chair during the session, left the room for approximately 15 minutes within the allotted service time, and complained openly about missing supplies that had not been ordered. Her presentation and behavior appeared impaired or otherwise not fully attentive, which was alarming in a setting where professionalism, focus, and client safety are expected. There were also sanitation concerns. Gloves were not worn during the sessions- in particular extractions & close facial work, which raised hygiene and safety questions. Given the nature of skincare treatments and direct contact with facial areas, adherence to clear sanitation protocols is critical. Both facials were performed below expected standards. Product application felt careless rather than intentional for both clients. Creams were applied in a manner that resulted in product entering the nostril area for both clients. In one instance, the technician had to awkwardly clean the inside of a nostril during the service, which was unexpected and uncomfortable (and something never experienced prior). In the other facial, cream entered the nostril and remained there throughout the session, creating concern about inhalation; the client ultimately had to clean it out herself after the session. This experience was distracting and far from relaxing. Additionally, massage and sculpting techniques reflected a noticeable lack of refinement and training, particularly for clients accustomed to higher-quality services. Overall, the experience lacked attentiveness, professionalism, cleanliness, and the level of care expected in a premium setting."

Met with Jane today and over heard her speech on why she would like you to come to Bus-Spa…read more Jane greeted me warmly and informed about the prices at Bus-Spa. There is a special going on where $50.00 is what it cost to get a massage for one hour. This is only for the grand opening which will end by the end of this month or partway through February. The regular price for massage is $80 per hour I am pretty as sure as half an hour is between $50 and $40 dallors. To stand apart from other massages as I heard Jane say, i think $40 an hour would have the other competition s%$#ing bricks. Especially when Jane's business is successful...but this is only my opinion. "Jane Says, I'm leaving tomorrow gonna kick back tomorrow..." oops, this is not Jane's Addiction...no, Jane said, that because of the construction it would be better if I could come back tomorrow. I will see if this can be do...oh, Willy Wonka's I've Got A Golden Ticket comes to mind...if you've seen the movie, than you know what I am talking about when I say "it can be done." The massage shop looks like it is getting two new rooms put in, but I can't say if there are other rooms in this establishment. The walls have a nice teal color and I wonder what else will be added when this place is up and running. Jane has a nice smile a great attitude. She would like to become a doctor and when she puts her mind to it, she will succeed at it. Until I get a chance to experience her massage, I can't give this place a 5 star, but her positive can do attitude gets her a 4 star status. I will return....hopefully the weather will be better too.

She worked on my severe back problems and actually made it feel better. And that is the first time in 30 years I can say that! So it felt like she is a healer as well as a massage therapist. Jane is a professional massage therapist licensed in both DC and Virginia. It did not take me long to see that she is well trained and very experienced. And besides being a phenomenal therapist, she has an interesting philosophy about life. Also, Jane has long-term goals to improve society and truly is in the business of helping people. Bus Spa is a unique concept massage studio that recently opened just off Leesburg Pike on Payne St. in Falls Church, VA. I won't spoil the backstory about Jane's business concept, so you'll have to go in to find out what it's all about. And I believe she also has a mobile element to her business. So if that is something you seek, you should call her. I know you've read reviews like this before and probably think this is just over-the-top hyperbole. But in this case, I assure you it is not. Just do yourself a big favor and go see Jane at Bus Spa and find out what a fantastic and unbelievably relaxing massage experience she provides.

7/16/23 Star Therapy…read moreMassage has had its star masseuse Jessica working here for a little over a year.   Jessica instantly remembered me the moment I walked through the door. Jessica remind me of someone body that I used to know. I even thought she was someone else, but was later informed she is not the same Jessica I was thinking of. Still, Jessica look very close to the woman in the red dress featured in the picture I took with the new prices for massage. Today, I was shown into the Autumn Room and it looked nice. It is very spacious with two massage chair/couches.  In the center is the massage table.  The Massage table wasn't  heated from what I saw. It is also Summer time and the heat wasn't needed for the massage table if there is one. I noticed the large window is heavily layered to keep out the sunlight.    The Massage: Covering the body is not necessarily a requirement, but can be done if you are not comfortable with being exposed...so to speak. Jessica asked me what kind of pressure I wanted and I went with medium pressure.   Lotion, oil or neither are your choices.   I went with the oil, but I think next time I will go without oil and lotion.   Ashiatsu (backpack massage) is an option, but Jessica didn't incorporate this option into my massage.  Jessica used her forearms  for my back , glutes, but I preferred her hands to Jessica's forearms.  Jessica massaged my legs and feet.    Jessica continued her massage checking to see if I wanted her to pressure to be harder or softer.   I am glad to say Jessica wasn't interrupted  with phone calls or someone else ringing the doorbell.  There is also no time clock is in the room, but there is a clock in the room.  Check your time before the massage starts. Hot towels supplied inside a heat box were applied to my body to remove the excess oil on by body.   Flipping over onto my back Jessica again asked if I wanted oil, lotion or nothing.  I went with oil and Jessica began her work. The stomach massage and chest massage were great.  Yet, the foot massage nearly put me to sleep.  The soft massage is another trick that can put someone to sleep.  It did not happen with me, because I wanted to be awake for the massage. Not fall asleep through it.  Jessica did the hot towel thing again before ending the massage.  Upon standing up, I felt some pain in my back. Jessica was able to massage my back again and removed the tight muscles in my lower back. I truly appreciate this Jessica.   I will definitely return here for another session.   I found it humorous an ironic that we were both wearing red and black outfits on this particular day.   What are the odds of this happening?

Unfortunately, the pandemic came along and we skipped massages for quite a long time. We recently moved nearby and decided to give it a try again and they did not disappoint! We booked a couples massage for 90 minutes with Frank and Mary. Neither of us can remember having massages that good. They spent the time focused on the areas we requested, with the pressure we requested, and we both left feeling so much better! Appointment was easy to book on the website. They sent reminders for the appointment and confirmed booking preferences before the appointment (gender of masseuse, single or shared room). As a side note- there are now signs in every room not to touch the masseuse and to basically be appropriate in their business. Not sure what people are thinking these last few years (though I can obviously guess by the signs), but no one goes to work to be assaulted so keep your hands TO yourself but OFF yourself. These folks are amazing! Give them some respect so they can do their work!

I tried the Art of Massage on a recommendation from someone at work and am glad I did. I initially reached out to Kim, but she was unavailable. She suggested I try Christina. I set up my appointment and the availability was awesome. She was able to accommodate me late in the evening during the week. This is key for me since family commitments make it difficult to find the time. I had a one hour massage with Christina after a quick 10-15 minute introduction session. As a runner I made it clear I wanted deep muscle therapy and wanted help with general flexibility. She was awesome. She had a great intuition for just how much pressure to apply. She also knew when to provide additional attention to any problem area. It really is the best massage I've had in this area. After our one hour session, she spent a little bit of extra time helping me out with some stretches and provided some great ideas for how to stretch while sitting at a desk all day. Truly a great massage and I will definitely be going back. Give the Art of Massage a try and you will walk out of there in better condition than when you walked in.

I have had a lingering discomfort from a stiff muscle on the left side of my back for many years. I have tried physical therapists, doctors, and even chiropractors to try and solve this issue. Nothing worked. I had never tried deep tissue massage before so I thought, why not? After hearing about my problem, Christina immediately zeroed in on the root cause. After working on my back with impressive endurance for an hour, my back felt looser than ever. The stiffness was significantly reduced. In fact, I had not felt so close to normal in so long that I almost thought something was wrong. I will definitely be back to the Art of Massage to get rid of this problem for good.
