Visited July 2024 (which seems to line up to the time when they were under "new management"). It's…read moretaken me a minute to write this review only because I am finally able to revisit my experience in my mind. I decided to try this massage place out because I read the great reviews. I feel like I owe it to my fellow massage lovers out there to share my experience. Long story short, my visit to Ya Ya Massage Spa was like a bad dream. My first impression of this place was the smell. I cant really describe with words, but it was disgusting. Next, was the room where my massage took place. It was eerie. It had a red glow from a light that had been sloppily painted red? Creepy. (See picture). I got undressed and soon realized there was nowhere to put my clothes because the hook on the door had someone else's shirt and some sort of negligee! Wtf! (See picture). I remember thinking to myself "what kind of place have I come to!" I thought about leaving then, and I should have. I'm too nice. After undressing, I realized there was nothing on the table to cover myself with and I wasn't given any instruction on what to use, so I found a towel in a basket and used that. The massage itself was mediocre and probably would have been considered fine if it weren't for the fact that the woman was playing an Asian pop song on her phone on REPEAT! I said something, but she just changed it to another pop song which then was on repeat. She also did a terrible job draping me--I felt completely exposed through the whole massage. The massage cost me $70 (I used a coupon on their website) and I still tipped because once again, I am too nice.

So when I slept on my neck wrong and just happened to be in this area for lunch, I searched and found Ya Ya! I called and asked if I could be in in two minutes cause I was right down the road and just needed a 30 minute neck and shoulder massage. The woman very politely said yes she was available, and literally within five minutes of the call! She was very strong intuitive and absolutely helped my body in a matter of 30 minutes! I can't tell you how many massages in Portland. I've been disappointed with not hard enough., rarely and only one session , but this was absolutely amazing & I really look forward to going back! Thank you Ya Ya! I will make sure to bring my husband next time. He will love your strength! Appreciate you!

Last night I decided to give them one last try and booked a 90 minute massage. For the first 30 - 40 minutes, I kept hearing a buzzing and the massage therapist kept either switching to one hand or just resting a hand for a minute or so without moving it. I finally looked up to find that she had been texting the whole time she was working on me. I called her out on it and she finally focused on the massage. Will not be going back. If you're thinking of going here, don't waste your time or money.

I double checked that this was ok since Yelp said they closed at 9, she said yes. I then called at 8:10pm to confirm before heading over. She picked up and said sorry she left for the day. I don't know how good of a massage place this is but I'll never find out since they wasted my time and lost business. This place already looked sketchy but this just confirmed the lack of professionalism and people should be aware when booking here.

First the place is very clean and smells great as soon as you enter. 2nd the young ladies are very friendly. But the most important part is they can give a really good massage. what I like also is you pay for 60 minutes and you get the full 60 minutes. You must also try the foot massage, it's amazing. 5 Stars for service and price

I get massages regularly and after two month spa closure I looked into therapists who will come to my home. As this was first time that I had therapist come to me, so was initially little hesitant, if she would have right equipments. Her table is very sturdy, the face planting pillow is better then the one at message envy. The lotion she used did not cause any rash. She was punctual and professional. Took all the pandemic precautions too. Once I had friend to have a massage too. We each had 90 min massage and even at the end her hands were strong! Definitely would recommend!!! Can't wait for my next session
