The north dale Mabry location I visited for the first time is a no frills space. The foot massage was ok. The towels were not really clean (left dirt and hair on my shirt)) and had an odor. The entire space has a heavy mildew odor. Be careful if you have upper respites issues. I will not be going back. The place needs a more welcoming aesthetic. read more

Haven't been more disappointed than at this foot spa. There were no formal instructions, and all they did was basically rub creme over the my legs and feet all for $100. I don't usually write bad reviews but we saw people coming into the store and wondered if they knew what they were (not) getting. We signed up for reflexology and there was none, just an attempt to upsale me to doing shoulders (at a foot spa). I think if I asked any person on the street to rub my feet, they would do a better job. Unfortunately, just having creme rubbed over my feet is not case for any review of a foot spa. read more

What a hidden gem! Went in a for a foot reflexology (feet and calves only) and it was amazing! 30 minutes of pure relaxation and bliss. Prices are reasonable, the facility is clean and the masseuses are super friendly. Will be coming back for the combo reflexology! read more

My friend and I had a decent foot massage and I tipped my masseur but the building was hot, the man who massaged me didn't know how to accept my gift certificate so I had to pay, AND I paid in cash and he didn't have change in the register so I overpaid. Not very relaxing. read more

I recommend Sunshine Foot Spa. Every time I have had an ache, pain or discomfort I have gone here and I always get relief. Ann is very knowledgeable about quality massage to help my body feel whole again. It is better then going to a doctor because I get relief without having to take any pills. It is like she has healing hands. You need to try. read more

I called there. They told me to come in went there drove 40 minutes. Out of my way. They said we have only 2 techs they said come back in a half an hour. I stayed in the area parked in my car went back in in a half an hour saying sorry we can't take you till 8 o'clock then the man comes out and got extremely rude 8 o'clock I said I can't stay until 8 o'clock. I said I will never be back here. You people are rude inconsistent they're open sign is never even on seems like there must be some shady crap going on. I do not recommend this place at all and I had been there at least six or seven times do not go here not to mention the fact that when I got there, I waited in the lobby for 11 minutes and I finally had to yell hello for somebody to come out and greet me just to turn me away after they told me to come back. read more

I wanted to start off the year relaxed - and did I ever! I booked a 60-minute combo reflexology massage (foot, calf, hands and head) and my massage therapist was Ann. The first thing I noticed in my solo room was how perfect the temperature was. It was cold outside but the room was neither warm nor cold...just right. This massage not only included my head and scalp but also my face, upper chest and neck. Ann's pressure was perfect and I could have slept all night when she was done. I do want to apologize because I'm sure I did snore a little bit near the end. This would be an outstanding experience/gift for any person in your life that needs a little bit of relaxation, including YOU. read more

I just went yesterday and I'm ready to make my next appointment already! Maureen was amazing! The place was clean, the service was friendly and the foot massage was fantastic. Orion was a good communicator... Asking right away if I wanted my massage to be deep but willing and able to adjust the strength if I wanted it deeper or softer. Wonderful experience! read more

We typically visit a massage therapist closer to our home. Our daughter was visiting and sunshine foot spa actually had availability for three people on short notice. We opted for the 90 minute combo massage which was nothing short of blissful. The foot reflexology is very relaxing. They offer a remarkable massage given that it is fully clothed. The only improvement I could suggest is a ride home so the relaxation continues. read more

Good quality massage and she addressed and focused on my problem areas. I forgot the name of my masseuse but she was awesome.

Ahhhhhh re-lax-ation! These guys know how to give a massage!! We purchased a Groupon that was for a foot detox and 30 minute reflexology massage. We were so impressed! We were brought to our own private room and started with the foot soak. They explained that the different colors the water will turn identified where you are detoxing from...not gonna lie we were kinda scared to look because some colors could mean something really bad for your health. But we were all good. After the 30 minute foot soak, 2 guys came in and went to work with some amazing massage techniques. We both felt SO relaxed. The pressure applied, the places they focus on, even the smell of the lotion was just perfection. I don't think they spoke English very well but that's okay. My only piece of advice is to wipe your feet off before leaving...I was sliding around in my sandals all night long! read more

Sunshine Foot Spa - As of 9/14/18 - Reflexology Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Come here and you will not be sorry. My husband and I needed a nice recovery day after our week of hard workouts, so we found this spot. They accept walk-ins! We got the 30 minute foot massage with our own private room. We wore masks and so did our masseuse. You lay down in a room with dim lighting and calm music for a nice relaxing foot and lower leg massage. Fun fact: I often hate pedicures because I'm super ticklish but I was not ticklish at all! Maybe it was the reflexology or the firm massage but I did not feel uncomfortable at all. I could feel them hitting the pressure points to relieve tension. It was a time well spent. You can even get ones that include the neck and shoulders. I will get that next time! Come here and you will not regret it! read more

A lot of people I know would not come here especially if you're used to those fancy spas... so if that's you go ahead and stop reading... OK NOW for us normal adventurous people... when you have some knots after being stuck at home with 2 screaming kids, a husband wfh and a yappy dog... this is where you want to go when you think it's safe to venture out... I love this place and its totally affordable and worth it regardless... It's the closest I'll get to a chinatown massage (where you walk out like you got beat up in a good way!) We usually get the 60 minute combo but my body is so out of wacks from not getting a massage in probably 6months to a year that we opted for the 90 minute and it did not disappoint. My masseuses was Jason and he had so many different techniques that my other masseuses never did when I went there.. he felt my knots and went right to work trying to break them up! This guy was as tall as me but had the pressure of an elephant! Just what I needed for this overwork mommy! Every masseuses I've had is great but I may have found my go to! They are super helpful and friendly on the phone when I set up my reservation and during the whole massage. read more

I came here because it was highly recommended by two of my coworkers. Walk-ins are accepted, appointments are preferred and if you're going with a more than two people, credit card is required. I like that the place is clean and the staff is friendly. The room is set up to have multiple massages at once. I wouldn't recommend the combo option though. The staff member who worked on me was literally breathing in my face the entire time they worked on my head and shoulders. With the pandemic, everyone is a bit cautious these days about personal space. I was super relieved once they moved to my feet. If they were going to spend longer on my upper body I was going to tell them to stop because it was really bothering me. I've had reflexology massages before and I think this was more of a foot rub than a reflexology massage. For the $69 for one hour I paid, I am glad I came to see what the rave was all about but I won't be back. For a frequent spa goer, this isn't for me. read more

I was straddled.... I wish I could give zero stars. Please understand I NEVER write reviews and I was so excited for a massage as a gift! But it was horrifically unprofessional. I walked in and had a gift card. I was put to the phone with who I assume is the owner because no one there spoke english. He told me come back at 12:30, so I gladly agreed. I came back. The woman working with me was wearing jeans and a jacket, she had no sense of privacy as she would fling the towel around to adjust it, and did not ask before taking off my bra. She SAT on me while giving the massage...I am talking straddled me while I was on my stomach. She whacked me multiple times and was so rough she knocked my hair tie out. I don't ever leave reviews but if you're looking for a relaxing time, I hope I save you the trouble of going here. read more

Ok... totally different story this time! Staff was on point... friendly and got me in quickly. I picked the 90 minute Foot reflexology which is a combination of foot/leg and neck/ shoulders. I had a massive migraine going in and was hoping this would help Started with a foot soak, and then the rest of the 90 minutes was a lot of pressure points, rubbing, massaging and techniques I had never had used on me before. The masseuse used his elbows quite a bit to dig deep in some of the larger muscle groups, and even used his knees when needed. Great deep tissue work. He also stretched me in some ways that I have not done since yoga or physical therapy. Gentlemen's name was Robert... and I highly recommend him Still have a headache... they don't go away easy, but it is not nearly as bad as it was. And the rest of me is relaxed an happy. I anticipate being sore tomorrow though... that was a workout. read more

My experience was totally different than everyone's consistent 5 star review. I was excited about this experience because of the 5 star review of this place. Initially, I just felt like we should have some consultation or direction of how our foot massage/treatment would work. I had no idea what to expect. I understand that there are tons of pressure points in your feet that correspond to different health conditions. I thought they would ask about that. We were welcomed into a room for two. It was comfy and clean. I started to try to relax, but I noticed that the woman doing my husband's feet, & the male doing mine seemed like they were in a tremendous rush. Felt like rush hour in Chicago hurrying to get to work. So I started trying to rest. My feet were soaked, they were getting massaged. Then...it stopped.. he came back, they left again... well turns out, the front desk person was not there. So meanwhile, hubby's massage was on going. He had a better one. His foot massage probably would have reflected the other reviews of 5's. Afterwards, we had our shoulder massages. I felt like my shoulders were being squeezed like a super wet sponge trying to get all the water out. My back and shoulders were being pounded as hard as can be and I swear I feel like I had whiplash in my neck. I told him to make it softer but it was not softer. I won't be back. I feel bad about this, but my husband, not I said first I was shafted of this experience. Mine was even finished before his including the time the person walked away several times. I understand needing to cover the front desk, but if that was what he had to do, then he should not have done my foot treatment. read more

Sunshine Foot Spa - Room for 2. - Reflexology Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I used to treat myself twice a month there. Then the price went up and I received less for the price. My son surprised me and his girlfriend with an appointment. The problem was that he tipped them $20 for me and his girlfriend. So they received a $40 tip. They stopped exactly at 50 minutes. They did not rub my thighs. He used the tool 80%. I love the hands more. My feet are sore now. I understand that it was not a combo, but they used to rub other parts of the body to respond to the reflexology that they found in the bottom of your feet. He did. not rub my neck, my hands, or my back. They did not even move the foot stool to put a towel on the floor. So we could put our shoes on after the treatment. That goes to show. Please do not tip before the service is done. My son made this appointment, and he prepaid. I feel that once they received the tip. They did not care about the services. I'm very disappointed. I have read some of the other reviews, and it seems like I am not the only one with the opinion that things have changed there. I'm sure they won't respond because they don't need us like they used to. Have a blessed day! read more

Giving it only 3 stars because I liked the place, however, my husband and I went for reflexology and he got the reflexology and I got a foot rub. The guy in the reception took over for a woman after a few minutes as she had another client and he was bad at it. Stick with one of the females if you go!! read more

Was able to get an appointment easily. Facility is clean and quiet. I got an hour foot massage and the massage was great. Relieved my foot pain. My masseuse used a tool to scrape my foot and it was painful but a good type of pain. Definitely recommend coming here to relieve sore muscles! Prices are decent too. Thanks! read more

I love this place...the price is affordable. I did a foot massage they are great. Very relaxing. Soft music. Relaxing chair. They set a timer. They really take pride in what they do. If you tell them you are having issues with arch they will focus on that. I have been here several times by myself and with others and I have never had a bad experience! All of the employees are so nice and pleasant! read more

Based on my latest visit to the Sunshine foot spa I gotta knock out two stars, and thats being generous. These are my issues. #1 They no longer offer the $78 promotion on the reflexology massage combo. This was the main reason why I was a regular here. #2 It's a ghetto operation. You call to make an appointment and they don't even take your name or anything. They also offer a rewards program that they've only brought up once the entire time that I've been coming here. #3 The messages are hit or miss. On my most recent visit, the massage was pretty good but my masseuse got up and out the room on three occasions. Wifey was next to me suffering, she claimed her masseuse went overboard on the deep tissue. Not sure Ill be going back. read more

I love getting foot massages, however, most of the places I go will do feet and back/neck, etc. I am sure that is fine for some people, but I really want my feet worked on. I've been here one time before and have also had a great experience. The lobby is really pretty and tranquil. The man at the front desk was attentive and courteous. There were 4 of us in our party and they quickly took us and brought us to a very quiet and relaxing room that was dimly lit with mellow music. Four different men came out and washed out feet and started to work their magic. It was nice because the place was empty and the four of us could talk without disturbing others around us. I've had a lot of foot massages before, and this one was above average. I know 60 minutes on feet alone is a lot of time, and there isn't too much variety you can do when you are concentrating on a small area. The pressure was ok, could have been a little firmer, but overall it was really great. read more

Awful and shady place. A friend went before due to a free gift card, so I thought that's a place to go when my visitor asked me where to go for foot massage. A total disaster! When we walked in, we didn't see any foot soaks or anyone working there. Two guys stood behind counter asked what were we there for? Don't they know??? They said not available for foot massage and gave us 2 biz cards? and there we go. What a waste of time and drive. My friend looked at me couldn't believe it. NEVER go close to it, who knows what's there. read more

The person who worked on my feet did a great job-- the person working the front desk was unkind when I called (which should've been a clue) and then was unkind to the gentleman who worked there which created an uncomfortable environment. read more

It was me and my husbands first time here and we were under impressed to say the least. They started 15 minutes late (we arrived 7 min early) and then ended 15 minutes early. We were charged more than what was on the menu prices. I don't believe the person I had was actually trained. She was the desk person when we first came so I honestly believe they were just understaffed even though we had an appointment. I didn't feel it was appropriate to give a good tip since considering the above and the gentleman asked us for more, which was incredibly unprofessional. Save yourself the time and money. read more

Great deal for the money! We had a wonderful foot massage, glad we found this place! The rooms are quiet and peaceful, the foot and calf massage is dreamy :) read more

Sunshine Foot Spa - Reflexology Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I had a terrible experience. I called the day before for a 90 minute appointment. I asked for 4 pm, they said they couldn't accommodate that time, so I settled for a 3 pm appointment for 90 minutes. They massaged for 55 minutes instead of even 60 and stopped. Spoke to the guy at the front desk who was a complete jerk, rude as hell, told me I was a walk in even though I was not. Then told me I was scheduled for 4 pm and basically looked at me like I was the jerk. Then proceeded to charge me, not even sorry about that, let me give u a discount. Just rude, obnoxious and disrespectful. I will NEVER go there again and I don't recommend it to anyone else. This place deserves a big fat zero! read more

I'm 51 years old and during that time I've had in the area of 175 to 200 massages from more than 2 dozen massage therapists. Max and Sonny worked on my husband and me for 90 minutes and hands down one of the best, if not the best, massages I've ever had. They clearly know the physiology of the musculoskeletal systems inside and out. I cannot recommend this establishment enough. The chair/table was comfortable and quiet throughout the experience. I was in euphoria for hours after leaving. read more

This is an early Valentines Date with my hubby! What an awesome way to relax and spend time together! These guys are so skilled at hitting pressure points and getting the blood circulated. I think I enjoyed this more than couples massages! We will definitely go back! read more

Sunshine Foot Spa - This is an early Valentines Date with my hubby! - Reflexology Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Great hospitality and great massages every time! I usually get the traditional foot massage but I tried the combo last time and I was very impressed. I always leave feeling great and appreciate the hard work the therapists put into my pressure points. read more

I hate to have to update my review from 5 to 3 stars, but after my experience tonight it's a must. I've been coming here for 3 years and recommending Sunshine to everyone. Sporadically a friend would tell me the massage was too rough. My mother in law said the massage was too rough. I just thought those people weren't used to getting massages and don't appreciate a great deep tissue massage. Again, I've been coming for 3 years and have always had a nice experience until tonight... First I want to say that although I've always liked the foot and back massages here, I have liked some massages better than others. HubbyStanks and I are used to getting massages by the elderly guys who work here however one Saturday we got 2 young guys who were truly gifted! We asked if we could request them again and we were told no. That's the biggest problem with Sunshine...you get what you get when it comes to the therapists. Every time after that night we hoped to get the two young guys and we always ended up with the elderly fellows...they were still good massages. Tonight we got new therapists. Hubby got a lady (had no idea the lady did massages as I've only seen her at the front desk) and I got a middle aged guy with shorts on. At first I thought he was just a helper to bring in towels and the foot bath because he looked annoyed and was placing everything down like he was trying to get it over with. He started with my head. Dudes fingers were digging into my temples and I though my eyes were going to pop out like the scene from Friday the 13th III. I don't know who needs their temples rubbed as many times as he went back to mine but it hurt like hell every time. Not everyone gives a good head massage so I patiently waited for the rest...everything he did was with aggressive, fast pinching...and too hard. He worked on my left foot for a ridiculous amount of time where he kept digging into the same areas over and over very rough. He did the same to my right foot and leg, but for a slightly shorter time. I pulled my foot back several times due to not being able to handle the pain, but he just got more aggressive with every pullback. He finished with what was supposed to be palpitations on the front of my legs, but it felt like he was punching me! When he was finally done (missing good spots and hurting my feet) he threw the hot towel onto my feet and rubbed my legs and toes so hard I thought my skin was going to be rubbed off! The worst was to come. When he was done with my front he pulled the towel off really fast like a matador, again with aggression and told me to turn over...the others were always very gentle with this part. As I turned over I tried to make eye contact with HubbyStanks as he was turning over at the same time, but as usual if I don't just bluntly say what's going on he doesn't pick up on anything. So no one else in the room knew I was suffering. Crazyhands now started pinching the back of my neck really hard and changing up with digging into my back with his elbow with all the pressure of an MMA fighter. I guess he couldn't tell that my body was as stiff as a board because I was trying my hardest not to yelp out screams! I almost started to cry it hurt so bad. I just wanted it to be over. Right when I was about to tap out the timer went off he gave me some slaps on the back (supposed palpitations) and he stopped and said "okay." My eyes were watering as I told HubbyStanks that that was the roughest, least relaxing massage I've ever had and that must have been the guy that Rachel, my mother in law and all the other people that said they had a massage that was too rough. I think this guy is messing it up for all the other wonderfully gifted hands at Sunshine. If I ever go back and Bruiser walks in the room I'll throw a fit until they give me someone else. I swear that if they get rid of this guy that takes all his aggression out on clients that they will get more repeat business. They need to get rid of this guy and allow people to make appointments with their favorite therapists. read more

I was visiting a friend in Tampa and decided to treat myself to a reflexology massage. This place had good reviews, so I booked 90min. It was the worst massage I ever had. The masseuse was really rough, pressed too hard, and checked the timer every 5 minutes. I had to keep asking him to be more gentle, but he kept checking out and putting too much pressure. He clearly didn't want to be doing this job, and I could tell. It was painful and not relaxing. I stopped it early because I couldn't take it anymore. Stay away from this place. read more

Yes-Sum-Masah, been in here twice in 2 weeks as my back under my shoulder ( I had sneezed and it froze) and also my right bottom muscle ( not too sure of the technical word) was very painful and I couldn't even touch my toes! The 1st visit the tech dug his "terminator" hands into all the "knots" in my back. Believe me it was pain and pleasure I thought I was having a baby! My wifey and I came back a week later and almost 95% of the stiffness and muscle freeze had gone . Good job! It's 4 stars as at $59 bucks a little pricey. But ask yourself this question ; is your health and back worth it ? read more

Affordable. Always great service. Would go weekly if I could! I drive all the way from Zephyrhills for a foot massage!

Great Time!!!! Happy foot happy life lol

Great service at a great price. The ambiance is beautiful, relaxing, and tranquil. The masseuse did a wonderful job. I did the combo foot/neck/shoulders. Not much else to say except I'll be back! read more

This place is AWESOME I love coming here any chance I can get. This place is clean and the staff is so nice. The services are worth every penny. I highly recommend this place for a message. Such a relaxing place. read more

Wow, this was a very different experience for me, but I have to give top of the line marks for the reflexology services offered at the Sunshine Foot Spa on Dale Mabry in Carrollwood. The spa is located in a very nondescript strip mall at the intersection of Dale Mabry and North Village Drive, roughly diagonally across the street from the shopping plaza that holds Carmel Café & Wine Bar and Chuck E. Cheese. I had a klutzy sports injury a few weeks ago when I stepped down too hard on my right heel, and ended up with a bruise on the bottom of my foot that was slow to heal. I mentioned this to my extremely adorable girlfriend and she suggested that I go to a Chinese reflexology spa to have it treated. She is a nurse, and spends long hours on her feet, so I figured I should listen to her advice and give this place a try. I made an appointment for Saturday afternoon, and showed up at the spa without a clue in the world of what to expect. I was shown back to a private treatment area, and the technician set out a bucket of warm water infused with some herbs and bath salts. I was instructed to sit back and soak my feet in this bucket while he prepared everything else. Now I have to confess....the bottoms of my feet are incredibly ticklish, and the thought of me paying to have someone play "This Little Piggie" on my tootsies was not giving me the warm and fuzzies. But, I promised to be strong and bear with the agony of someone dragging their fingers across the bottoms of my feet while I bit my lip and tried not to giggle like a little schoolgirl. The technician was fantastic, and he explained what he was doing as he started massaging my feet, my toes, my ankles and my calves. He was applying pressure on the bones of my feet and then rubbing and lightly pounding in other areas as he released the tension and manipulated my feet and toes. (Pop, pop, pop....ahhhhhh!) He spent about 30 minutes on my feet, and dug in with his thumbs and broke up the sore spot on my heel. Think of something like acupuncture without the needles -- just the pressure from his thumbs on various parts of my feet. Oh baby, baby make it hurt so good!!! But wait, we're not done yet... Next came a neck and shoulders massage where he had me sit on a stool, and then lean over from the waist as he once again used his thumbs and found all of my tensed-up pressure spots across my shoulders and up my neck. His manipulations helped to relax my muscles, and he once again popped the tension in my neck and shoulders. By this point I was feeling like Jell-O, but magically all of my aches and pains had disappeared. This whole treatment lasted for about an hour, and I was charged an amazingly inexpensive $39 for the service. While I have experienced chiropractic massage in the past, this was my first time enjoying traditional Chinese reflexology and I am sold on the benefits. I will definitely be back to Sunshine Foot Spa for another treatment. read more

Super spa. Made an appointment on my mobile and they were ready for me when I arrived. The space is clean and serene. The practitioner put much effort and care into the session, and was silent the entire time. I appreciate this as I have had spa experiences with chatty practitioners that even though you explain you want peace, they are incapable of providing it. Very thorough and relaxing experience. Look forward to visiting again. read more
