If you're a veteran like myself that suffers from chronic pain type issues I highly recommend trying this place out!

Since moved to Des Moines 2 yrs ago, because I don't have time to drive far, tried a couple of therapists near my home, they were average, I gave up looking and purchased a nice massage chair to use everyday. Last week my Esthetician suggested I give Cynthia a try, and I did. Her place was clean and quiet with soft music. Cynthia has great massage technique with cupping and stretching. She's friendly, professional and has good people skills. Overall very nice first impression!

During my massage, she made sure i felt comfortable and asked about pressure or if i was okay during certain areas she was working on. Very polite & professional. cons: Outside noise. there was a lot of outside noise from her studio but that's expected because there's multiple studios around hers and people walking & talking near by, which i don't mind but it's kinda hard to ignore. she does play relaxation music though which helps hence the 4 stars. but overall great experience, i definitely recommend

After reading great reviews, I decided to take a quick bus ride to Smile Spa--and I'm so glad I did. I texted ahead right when I landed, and Molly was able to fit me in. She took the time to understand exactly where I was hurting and delivered one of the best massages I've ever had. She included hot stones and hot towels, explained everything before starting, and made sure I was comfortable throughout. If you're okay with deeper pressure, I highly recommend it--it made a huge difference, and I felt incredibly relaxed and refreshed afterward. I walked in exhausted and left feeling completely re-energized. The spa itself is simple but perfect for what I needed: real pain relief and genuine care. Molly is kind, attentive, and truly skilled at what she does. Burien is also a nice area with a great stretch of restaurants and shops nearby, making it an easy and worthwhile stop during a layover. Highly recommend texting or calling ahead--this was 100% worth it.

Serena is a bully, I was treated like an animal. DISCRIMINATION AGAINST DISABILITIES. I tried to…read moregive her a second chance, but she treated me horribly both times I scheduled with her... This woman literally kicked me out of her office for asking very nicely for her to turn off the television... as flashing imagery can cause seizures for me. I asked nicely 5 times and tried to explain why, but she kept cutting me off and saying, "Just don't worry about it." If I could simply not worry about it without making myself sick, I wouldn't have asked. I then said, "Please, can you just turn it off before we begin so I can open my eyes?" And she preceeded to kick me out, saying that "alright it's not the vibe, just go to massage envy,' and 'this is not the dynamic of Sanar massage." Okay? Then why are you making it the vibe?? She literally said, "I'm a healer! I don't play these games!" Girl... if you were a healer, then WHY would you subject someone to something that would make them physically ill when it's simple enough to just turn the massive television taking up the entire room OFF? She wouldn't let me finish a thought. Wouldn't let me explain why I was asking for this simple accommodation. My partner tried to interject and explain that I do infact need this in order to avoid a dangerous neurological response. She wouldn't let him speak either. I begged her to just please just hear me out , and then she threatened to call the cops... I am taken aback. I have no idea how this woman stays in business when she treats her kind, genuine, well-paying clients like absolute garbage. To Serena: I have to protect myself constantly from triggers in the outside world... I came in fully loaded with sunglasses (at night), ear plugs, a brimmed hat to help block out unwanted visual input, and a face covering because I'm immunocompromised. I did everything I could to protect myself and make my needs clear. It's your job to LEARN about your clientele so that you can best treat their underlying conditions causing pain in the body. If you won't listen to this one sentence, how am I expected to effectively explain my other ailments that may determine the treatment I can endure? I hope this message helps you learn the invaluable lesson of being open and loving to those with different needs than your own, and perhaps open your mind up to the idea that not everyone's perception of the world is identical. If you were a true "healer," then you wouldn't let your ego get in the way of providing care to those who need it most.

The massage itself was great. My entire body is very sore like I'm made up of 1 gigantic bruise so I was expecting it to be a really painful massage. In a few areas it was but over all it was far less painful than I imagined. I had no pain afterwards though. The guy either has magic fingers or is just THAT skilled. I got this massage 3 days ago and have for the first time in literal years slept through the entire night without waking up. We conversed throughout the entire massage. I'm sure some people may want to sit in quiet but not me. TLDR; Best of the best masseuse. Highly recommend. He's very interactive with his clients which I enjoy.

I got him all pumped up for this and when we got there? The gentleman was totally confused at why we were there. He explained that he didn't read the booking and wasn't able to do a couples massage since he had someone right after the appointment. It might be the best massage on earth but we won't ever know because they use a booking app that they don't read. Will definitely go elsewhere in the future. Super unprofessional and the reaction by the massage therapist was really flippant like it didn't matter. This was going to be my husband's father's day treat since we spent the actual weeks around father's day in the hospital with our daughter so this was just a huge bummer.

I forgot her name, but all of a sudden she's no longer there. Then I found out my former therapist Sandi who used to own her own massage business also worked there. She had a strange schedule so it was difficult to get an appt with her, then she moved away. So I tried others they were fine. Some were, some not to my liking. I heard the owner was fantastic, but I was never able to get an appt with her. It's more clinical than a day spa feel, but the place is clean, and comfortable. I decided to purchase a package deal they offered. Everything was fine pre-pandemic. But 2020 came around and we had to wear mask while getting massaged. I normally would be fine with except, I can't wear mask due to my asthma. So the last time I came in for a session, I was able to remove my mask faced down, then face up I had to wear my mask. All of a sudden I started wheezing. I tried to enjoy my massage as much as I could. I ended up sick with asthma the rest of the week, I messaged the business to let them know, and the owner was gracious enough to not only refund my last treatment, but the rest of the sessions I prepaid. Sad, because this place is only a 10 minute drive from my home. I ended up finding a therapist who would massage me unmasked, but the drive was 30 mins. Darn Corona!

I can tolerate a lot of pressure and she hits it right on the spot. She can feel the spots that are tight and works on them gently, but enough to loosen the muscle. She also always makes sure that pressure is okay and that it's not hurting me. I also enjoy talking with her. Sometimes I like my massages quiet but most of the time I like to talk. She's great to talk to and it's it awkward. One of my favorite parts is she has me take a deep breath in at the end which is great because I always forget to breathe in this way so it forces me to really relax. I'm so happy and lucky that I found my next massage therapist.
