I did not have an appointment, however, I was able to be seen within 15 minutes or so. Typically they ask you where you want them to focus or what have been aching you-- that was not done here, but I guess that was okay. There was no banter, the lady just went to work. I want to reiterate I'm very used to massages, even though it's been about two years since I did one. The lady was actually hurting-- I'm a bigger guy, I have a high pain tolerance but it was way too much. I think she saw me noticeably flinching a lot; I asked her not to be as rough. It got a little better but she applied way too much pressure. The whole massage to me was a bit unique, so of the style utilized was unfamiliar with me. I did appreciate the hot stones toward the end, though. I wanted to hold off on writing my review until I saw how I woke up or if I was going to be in pain, lol. I guess in the ends to justify the means!

I will be gifting couples massages so that I can have more of an excuse to come back. I will not stop raving about this place to anyone who will listen. I have found my massage @ wellness home.

Very disappointing after being a loyal customer for over 10 years…read more I've been coming here for over a decade, completed countless loyalty cards, received the promised free massages in the past, and referred many friends and family. Unfortunately, both the service and business practices have declined significantly. This past weekend, I came with two friends who were also getting massages. We drove an hour, and it was one of their birthdays. I had completed my loyalty card, which clearly states "complete 10 visits, receive 1 free." The owner refused to honor the promotion printed on his own card, despite having honored the same offer for me many times before. He even acted as though he didn't understand English when I questioned him. Only after I made it clear I would leave a negative review did he offer a discount on one massage--which was not the free massage I had earned. A note to other customers about tipping: The owner can be very persistent about having you pay your tip upfront when you pay for the massage. Don't feel pressured to do this. If you prefer, simply be firm that you will tip the massage therapist yourself, directly, after your service. That way, you can decide the tip based on the service you actually received. The quality has also declined over the years. An advertised one-hour massage is often shortened by nearly 10 minutes, despite paying for the full hour. After more than 10 years of loyalty, this experience was extremely disappointing. Refusing to honor your own loyalty program, pressuring customers to pay tips upfront, and cutting massage time short are simply not good business practices. I've included photos of both sides of the loyalty card so customers can see the promotion for themselves. I will not be returning or recommending this business anymore.

While waiting for my facial place to open (I happened to arrive earlier than them opening), I saw…read morethis massage place opening up. They are located next to the facial place and decided I'll try them afterward. I didn't check them out on Yelp or Google and made the decision on the spot. When I entered, I saw pricing for foot bath/massage at one price (large price banner outside shop) and inside smaller price sheet listed $5 more. Umm... okay, whatever (maybe that includes tips because some people no tipping?). The shop was bigger than expected as I walked deeper/into the inner area. There were many masseurs just waiting for clients. There were some small private rooms on the left side but majority of the front room was one open space with tables (and small side curtains) diving each table for massages (seems off putting). As I walked deeper inside, my inner thought said I should have Yelp it but too late as I followed the host inside. In the very back room were chairs for foot massage. As I sat and waited, I did a quick Yelp search and was abit more reluctant. Burning hot hot hot water basin tub was given to me to soak my feet. I guess there are many dirty feet that walked in here and they want to make sure feets were clean before massage? I had to slowly ease my feet in (a delicate dance of dipping my feet in and out to prevent burns). I wish they could have ask the temp at least and then adjust as needed. As according to other reviewers, this place is not your fancy spa place. NO FRILLS, shabby place but they get the job done. At this point, I'm abit concerned but no going back now. When he finally started on the massage part, it was lovely even tho I had to keep cautioning him to be more gentle. They do very hard pressure to work out the knots.... or maybe he doesn't know his strength? I'm not into very deep/hard pressure massage so I know that I rather have it abit more gentle (traumatized by my first body massage by a Korean auntie at a Korean spa. And you know they can be rough, hence me always like my massage abit more gentler.) After requesting him to "be abit more gentle", he ease up and I was able to enjoy it more. Steady-even medium pressure massage is perfect for me. There was a customer who got seated next to me and they converse together. She also got the foot massage (it also typically comes with a shoulder/upper back massage but I wanted only the foot part). As they converse (loudly), he forgot and would ocassionally increase pressure, hence me kept repeating to be gentler. Other than that, it was a lovely experience. I think and agree with other Yelpers, if you just want simple massage and like harder/rougher pressure, this is the place for you. I can imagine them working the knots out of your back if you did a full body massage, but make sure to opt for private rooms. Some of the reviews about the open public space made me cringe as I wouldn't want my bare bottom out for strangers to view/ogle.

The lady taking my appointment forgot to mentioned this to my masseuse and apologized for her oversight, however, I'm very seasoned when it comes to getting massages so I understand it's also my responsibility to speak up if I wanted more pressure - to which I did. In terms of the actual massage, it felt more like a rub with lots and lots and lotssssssss of oil, so much that I asked for a towel when she was done cause I was THAT oily. She focused mainly on my shoulders/upper back and went over this same area, completely missing my lower back, buttocks, thighs and calves. Well, this isn't completely accurate - to be fair, she rubbed oil in these areas. I expected to leave the establishment feeling relaxed and less tense but I left feeling the same. I was asked by the lady taking my appointment for feedback, which I gladly gave and was asked to come back and try a different masseuse in my next visit. I understand this is common business language to get customers to return, but I can't help but express that there should be standardized techniques - what if I come back and don't like the technique of the new masseuse? Will you ask me to come back to try a third masseuse? I understand if the client asks you to focus on specific areas (to which I did not, hence the importance of a standardized technique), but how was I supposed to know while making the appointment that she was only going to spend 90 mins on my shoulders and rub oil on the rest of my body? More importantly, how do you guarantee *consistency* for customer retention? Anyway, this review isn't specific to the masseuse which is why I haven't mentioned her name - I'm sure she's amazing in her own ways and requested by clients who prefer gentle rubs. I was really excited about this second location as it's much closer to home, however, I expected better customer service as I left feeling like I was out of $80+tip. I'm happy to pay as long as I receive the service in which I paid for. For context, I asked for partial comp service for my next visit, which to be fair, makes sense since she did not massage (only rubbed) my lower back, buttocks, thighs and calves. The lady taking appointments mentioned she would talk to the owner and get back to me "tomorrow", but it's been 5 days and I'm still waiting to hear back.......

Not the best location to get a massage in NYC but still a good one in 8 Ave…read more It's a smaller place than other massage places, but they also do haircuts in the front of the store. Cons: - The privacy here is practically nonexistent. The curtains are so light (and slightly see through!) that they open up like the Red Sea whenever someone passes. Also customers and staff open up the curtains like someone is not still naked in there getting a massage. - Since it's an open space with just a loose curtain to separate the beds, you hear everything that other people talk about, like staff talking to their friends/customers about previous customers. The massages I've gotten are super super intense. Could be a good or bad thing. I don't think they know how to massage lightly because when I ask them to massage lighter, the masseuse does it for a minute before she goes back to the same amount of pressure as before.
