AMAZING. In town visiting family and was having major pain in my neck and back. Found this place on Yelp. They took me right away. Tony wasted no time listening to what I needed and got right to work. I feel so much better! He took the time to ask me how the pressure was and how I was feeling and if he was working the right area and he clearly knew what he was doing. Thank you so much! I will be coming back! read more

Absolutely the worst massage I have ever had. I should have known better. I went for girl's day with my adult daughter and were rushed in to the rooms. Neither masseuse spoke English and relied on "ok ok" to determine the type of pressure/massage. Literally felt worse when I left than when I arrived. My daughter felt the same way and even worse her masseuse left the door open during the massage and left to greet a customer. No receptionist. The worst experience. For those who have orthopedic problems, the inability to communicate those issuse is critical. Never again. I hope my back (which now hurts) feels better tomorrow. Please do not believe the "amazing" reviews. read more

I went to get a couples massage with a friend and the two masseuses did not stop talking for the first 30 minutes. I talked to a friend that recently went there with their partners for a couples massage and she had the same experience. Very disappointed to pay for a relaxing service and not be able to relax for the first half. read more

How have I not found this place before now! Fantastic massage and reflexology. Mae was my masseuse and I'd go back to her in a heart beat. This is the first of many future visits. If I had one suggestion it would be to be a little more welcoming. This was my first visit and they assumed I knew their process. read more

If you're looking for real therapeutic relief over luxury spa vibes, Spa Haven is the place. The facility is simple and unassuming, but the massage therapists are truly gifted. I've been dealing with frozen shoulder since April, and after trying everything--physical therapy, medication, icing--I was still in pain with limited mobility. My husband and I booked a couples massage (he came to help me on and off the table), and I explained my issue at the front desk. They kindly translated everything to Lily, my therapist. Lily was amazing. She used deep tissue, stretching, and gentle pressure to target my problem area. By the end, I had regained about 80% of my shoulder mobility. The pain hasn't fully gone away, but the improvement was immediate and meaningful. If you have a specific issue, be sure to mention it when booking or at the front desk--not just once you're in the room. It helps everyone get on the same page and ensures the therapist can focus right away. Language barriers aside, the care, attention, and results here are outstanding. Spa Haven is a gem for anyone seeking lasting relief. read more

My bf booked us massages at this place late last year. Mind you, this was our second time here. The first time was pleasant enough but this second time was horrific for me! I had a male masseuse who had guns of steel and he handled my back like I was a man too. I mean, it wasn't supposed to be a deep tissue massage, but it felt like it x 10. I was in pain and told him that and he continued right along with his method for the most part. My bf enjoyed his from his female masseuse. If I ever go here again, I'm requesting a woman too, but I doubt we'll be back. It was supposed to be a relaxing experience and I was sore for four days after. Do better and listen to your clients. The women staffed there are pretty nice, I'll say. I would give them 1.5 stars if I could, but they're only getting 1 star especially because I complained during my massage and nothing changed. read more

amazing first experience. I had the pleasure of working with Yvonne and she was the best. really got some knots out! I will return.

Always attentive. Always affordable. Our go-to massage option in Newtown. Never a bad experience!

What a wonderful full body massage experience! It's real nice to be able to book same day appointments. The staff are very professional and friendly. The massage itself is definately deep tissue with good pressure and that allows you to leave refreshed and limber. Definately worth giving it a try as this place has become the only place I go for a therapeutic massage. read more

If I read the reviews, I might skip over Spa Haven, but I was going by word of mouth, my friend told me an hour massage was $60 and she was super strong and would climb on the table and dig in. I was like stop, you had me at $60. So I made an appointment for the next day at 10a. This massage was exactly what I needed and it did not disappoint. They also specialize in foot massages, if you have only had a pedicure foot massage, go to an Asian foot spa, it is life changing. It is serious business. I loved this little spa, my massage was no nonsense and she worked on all the knots in my body. Great massage and great pricing. read more

Went there today for couples massage. We both had to tell them more than once to lighten up the pressure. It actually hurt. There were 3 employees there and not one of them spoke English. As we were leaving, the guy actually ASKED for a tip! I usually leave the cash tip in the room before leaving. We found that so rude and unprofessional. I will definitely not go back there read more

I booked a 90 minute massage for 5pm appointment at 3:35pm. When I arrived to be told that they were running late. They simply took a walk-in appt that put them off schedule. No fret, I understand since they are trying to maximize business. BUT to add salt to the wound...they only were able to do a 70 min massage and then charged me 75. The menu price list for non-members clearly states 60 min for 60 and 90 min for 90. So why would my 70 be 75. The receptionist states she only works there and doesn't make the rules. She was trying to explain the longer the massage the less expensive per minute but 70 is in between the 60 and 90 so makes zero sense AND specifically they made me take the 70 min because they didn't have anyone ready for my 5pm appointment. I was there on time. I asked to speak to manager but they would not give me. Additionally, with her attitude says that she tried calling me 2x. BUT I didn't recognize the number so never picked up and she did NOT leave any message. No message! Super disappointed since I moved to Newtown recently and have been going once a week. Will not be going ever again. I rather pay double than support this nonsense. I tried to explain calmly and nicely and the receptionist was rude and dismissive. Massage was also not as good today. It's too inconsistent, Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's not. This review could have been avoided if she gave me a contact w manager. read more

I love getting foot reflexology here. The price is great and the massage itself is great but the therapist talk to each other, the phones ring, there's a lot of conversation and it's not relaxing. If I happen to forget my noise canceling headphones it's really not a great experience. I know others have mentioned this to the owner as have I but there have been no changes. I will still be going back but I make sure to have my noise canceling headphones. read more

The strangest massage I ever got in my life. Picture the massage you get at a nail salon while your nails are drying but worse. First off I requested a female and only the male massager was available. Fine, no big deal I guess. But there's no way he was a licensed masseuse. No idea what the hell he was doing. It was as if he was exfoliating my body. Hard fast strokes on my back and arms to the point my entire body was moving along with him. So uncomfortable I asked him to stop twice. In what world is it supposed to be relaxing when hot stones are being knocked together at my ears. The foot massage was a joke. He was pretty much tickling my toes. I actually was laughing because of what he was doing. On top of that, he said he's running out of time and next time to book a 90 minute massage. Never again. read more

The massage was very nice. I am shocked that after I paid cash and gave over a 30% gratuity, not even a thank you! Poor manners! A shame, I was looking for a new place . I won't be going back. read more

I went for a full body massage and they only did one side of my body which I asked several times if they would do the front of my legs. The beds are very uncomfortable. Then they want you to pay cash, which is fine (they have an atm without a fee) but my bank will charge me a transaction fee. Well my card wouldn't work in the atm and they seemed annoyed that I wanted to use my card. Then as I was walking out the person who rung me up said something really rude to me. Definitely gonna skip this place. read more

I received the foot reflexology massage and on a separate visit the neck and shoulder (with complimentary foot reflexology). I love this this place. The person giving the massage is skilled and knows what she is doing. She removed all my knots in the back around the shoulder blades and gave me an amazing foot massage. I would definitely recommend going here. Also suggest you just buy the service at the store since the Groupon price isn't any different. This way the cash goes to Spa Haven vs a cut going out to Groupon. read more

Peter is a great masseuse. He can sense my sore spots and really helps to alleviate the pain. I recommend Spa Haven

I did a couples massage with my significant other. I was unimpressed and uncomfortable. Being practically naked and the man gave no warning or signal that he was going to lift my sheet. Took it completely off me and told me to turn over. The man was also sick and breathing extremely heavy in my ear the whole time. The massage was mediocre. And the towels they wiped us down with did not smell pleasant. Like someone peed on them or left them in the washer for a extended period of time. Personally I would not recommend this place for a full body massage. read more

My daughter got a massage and it was horrible. It was so bad she cut it from 90 minutes to 60 minutes. he wouldn't take her card had her use ATM machine which she then got charged a fee for. After paying for the massage he counted the money and told her it didn't cover the tip. Feeling pressured she used machine again to get tip incurring another fee. Needless to say she won't be back! read more

I booked a couple massage for mr husband and I as part of our celebratory weekend for being married 10 years. 20 mins before our appointment they called. The woman said," I know you booked two females but are you ok with a male?" I said, "no, sorry that's why I specified two females" she said," one of the females won't be available at that time so we would need to change your appointment." We we're very upset especially that we were told this as we were on our way and couldn't find any last min appointments anywhere during the time we allowed for a babysitter. read more

I highly recommend Spa Haven. I have been getting massages from here regularly for about a year. Mia is my favorite masseuse; she performs deep tissue massage. I appreciate the massages especially as I am a fitness enthusiast who puts a lot of mileage on joints/tissue- the massages help me recover and also relax read more

Wonderful experience. My mom and I went for foot reflexology and left feeling so relaxed yet invigorated. Clean and comfortable environment. During the foot soak they massaged our shoulders. Then we relaxed while they massaged our feet and legs and then used hot rocks and a warm towel to finish our session. We will definitely be back. read more

Amazing couples deep tissue massages with Peter & Amy! Thanks Karen at the front desk for arranging a great experience!! So grateful

When I arrived no one was at the reception desk. After a few minutes someone leaned over the second story railing and told me to have a seat. On your finally greeted I was taken upstairs to a room and simply told to undress then lay face down. A massage therapist came in a few minutes later. No introduction, no name, didn't ask what kid of massage is like or the type of pressure I liked. She went into a drawer and grabbed a hair tie and tied up my hair. I imagine the same hair tie used by many people a day. Gross. The "massage" consisted of pressing so hard I thought she was going to break my back. Weird, random strokes, rolling her entire arm up and down my back. Then she proceeds to straddle me on the table to start from the bottom of my back and work upward. AWKWARD! I was never asked to flip over like most massages, and now my back is killing me from so much hard pressure. I asked twice for lighter pressure but she didn't listen. At the end I asked what type of massage she gave me and she stated a deep tissue massage. I purchased the new customer "spa massage". It was far from a spa experience. I feel like I was bulldozed. Worst massage experience ever! **Also they do not accept credit cards. If you hand them a credit card, they direct you to an ATM to withdrawal cash from. They say they don't charge a fee, but if your bank does then be prepared. Such an odd experience all around. And now I'm left with an extremely sore back. read more

Found this place while I was in town, and it was absolutely amazing. The best deep tissue massage I've ever gotten!! Highly highly recommend

Jinrong Li, Master Massage Therapist, LMT, runs this clean, state of the art spa on the north end of State Street in Newtown Borough. She previously was the massage master at the Newtown Athletic Club. Jin does an excellent job relieving neck and back pain in a comfortable setting. She is also a Skin Care Specialist, although I have never utilized those services. read more

Run, don't walk, to Spa Haven! This is an amazing spa - clean, beautifully decorated, and utterly relaxing. I received a mind-blowing foot massage from Peter. I have suffered from chronic foot pain for years. Peter used a firm touch and hit all of my pressure points. My pain has been greatly alleviated for the first time in many years. Highly recommended! read more

First time getting a massage there had a couples massage and it was great with affordable pricing!

The service I received today was just labeled a massage not a deep tissue or any other type of more intense massage. The massage I received was one of the most aggressive massages I've ever had. Pounding my body, smacking it and being super super aggressive to the point it was painful. The woman didn't speak English so it was challenging to communicate how I was feeling. The lady from the front desk told me to say lighter pressure if needed, that should have been my sign to leave. Once the first 15-20 minutes was over, it became more enjoyable where the woman was actually rubbing me in a relaxing way. It's a shame because the woman at the front desk was nice and very welcoming with great customer service. Her massage therapists need to be less aggressive for them to compete with larger companies like Hand & Stone etc. that are much gentler. I would not come back and felt compelled enough to make a review because it was such an aggressive and painful experience. I am worried that I will feel sore in the morning. read more

Very good massage that really worked the muscles as well as helped me relax. My neck was very sore and difficult to turn after traveling across the country and Mia knew just what to do- it was much better after the massage and my neck pain was gone the next day. Impressive and so appreciated! read more

My boyfriend planned a massage and a facial for me for Valentine's Day. He scheduled it a week in advance and we left our beach trip early to come home for this. We got there right on time and they had no idea we were coming. He even had the confirmation text from them. They had us waiting for 20 mins before they told us that we have to wait another 40 mins because they forgot about our appointment and I wouldn't be able to get my facial done that day. I asked for the managers information and the lady at the front desk told me she didn't have the mangers phone number only their email. I called back the next day to ask where our refund was and they gave me the managers phone number and admitted they lied to me about not having it. They made excuses about how it's hard to schedule their employees since they are a small business. We were really looking forward to this experience, the lies and unprofessionalism were very disappointing. read more

I have horrible migraines and spa haven has been the best place for a massage for me. They give the best deep tissue massage I ever had. I would never go anywhere else. read more

This place was amazing! I highly recommend coming here if you just want to relax or if you are feeling sore. The prices are worth it as well! I will definitely come back. They take the time to work out all the knots and they give their 100% the whole time! Don't miss out on this great place! read more

I've gotten massages in NYC and SF and I can say with confidence that this is the best yet. They fit me right in, 60 minutes for deep tissue only cost $53, and it was such a thorough and AMAZING massage. I don't feel compelled to Yelp often but I am big fans of this couple and want people to know how great their little Spa Haven is! read more

I consider myself a borderline massage junkie, so have become an aficionado of sorts. Spa Haven is a top-of-the-line Asian massage experience. It is clean, convenient, and highly effective. All too often masseuses go through rote routines and pay lip service to any particular problem areas. The therapists here are trained to go to the root of the problem. They'll work hard to get out all your knots, and if you ask for a strong massage, they do not taper off the pressure halfway through. Otherwise, this is a $$ massage, not a luxury spa massage experience, so hot towels are the garden variety, there are no steam rooms or showers, but the price point reflects this. I found my experience to be a perfect mix of relaxing and effective. read more

I had a massage yesterday by Cassie and it was great! She asked about the pressure, and did an amazing job.

This place is spa "heaven". Judy's hands are gifted!! I entered the room with stiff and sore body but came out so relieved!! I'm definitely going back!! read more

Both Jin and her husband are amazing massage therapists. This place is clean, cozy and simple with the best massages! I have issues with my back and shoulders with my job and every time I leave here I'm in heaven. Definitely a must read more

Weirdest most aggressive massage I have ever had. I get semi regular massages and received this one as a gift. I arrived for my appointment and was brought back to a room with little interaction. I got ready and assumed face down since the head booster was in. The holster had a mental bar across the bottom with very little padding around the rest of it. The metal bar dug into my chin for the entire time I was face down. The ankle booster was also the knee booster and provided no more lift than a pillow would. Certainly not enough to alleviate strain on critical parts of the body. The masseuse used very aggressive techniques I have never had (not in deep tissue, trigger point, needling ,etc). She pounded my body a lot. Massaged in obscure and random patterns and never established a flow. Each time her hands fully removed from my body, she would slap them down in a new location. After she would massage an area she would leave the room and the door open and go get a hot wet towel to aggressively scrub the oil off my body (I've only seen that done at speedy pedicure places, the oil is half the benefit for winter dry skin). She also close fisted pounded on parts of my back, arms, and legs. I could get over the weirdness of it all if I found it helpful. When she ended, it was painful to fully stand up. My lower back hurt a lot from both the massage and poor bolstering. I reread their advertisement and menu again to see if they give a description of the service I received and I did not see if anywhere in their info. This is certainly not a traditional massage place and what I receive was not therapeutic or relaxing in any way. read more
