AMAZING! My mom and I swung by to check out this new local biz. If you've never tried one (this…read morestyle of massage), I'll just say, it's kind of one of those "lifesaver" options when your body is in a tangle and you just need a fix - and waiting until your therapist is available (if you even have one), etc. just doesn't feel like an option. Both of these gentlemen did such a fantastic job. Here's a little breakdown... - Open from 10am to 10pm (walk ins are the norm) - Did the 1 hour - $30 foot massage - Tip $10 (THEY EARN IT!!!) - Walked in and they were able to see us immediately - Peaceful, mild scent of green tea and lavender - It's an open air style room with multiple beds - I suggest wearing minimal style clothing such as "bike" shorts, yoga pants, spaghetti strap tanks, no bra, etc. - Be sure to tell them your preferred pressure (light, hard, etc.)... they bring new meaning to deep tissue, if that's your thing! - Started with a nice foot soak while laying on our backs (knees bent down into soaking bucket) - Amazing face and head/scalp massage - Placed a cloth over eyes for relaxation - Did neck, arms, and collar bone area (lots of pressure and stretching motions to really loosen things up - Worked on hip flexers, thighs, and calfs - Did an intense and very intentional foot and ankle massage *Note, heard him wash his hands after doing my feet, which was appreciated - even though they'd been soaking for at least 15 mins... I'm kinda a clean freak. They also used really warm towels to remove any moisturizer before pulling down my yoga pant legs. - Asked me to flip onto my stomach and proceeded to do my neck and move down my back - Worked on my really jacked up hips and lower back - Really loosened up my legs and calfs Was greeted at the front desk with a bottle of water - and a cup of water to ensure we flushed out the toxins (important after a massage) and a nice mint. Gave us stamp cards to get a free massage after ten, I believe. They offer other massage services, but the 1 hour, $30 massage is my absolute favorite. You can pay a more standard rate to get a more traditional, private massage in a separate room. This place is a respectable, legitimate place so don't go there expecting any funny business. Best $30/$40 I've spent in a long time! I may seriously go back tomorrow!!!

When think of a massage, you think of calm relaxation, but thats not what I got.

I receive regular massages and facials (high end to medium standard/locally & during my travels) so I am very experienced in spotting a quality spa and know what great service looks like! The dim lighting and ambiance is very nice and calming. The establishment feels exceptionally clean and nicely decorated, even the waterfall faucet was fascinating! Not high end but good enough, great quality massage spot. My masseuse, Stephanie, is so skilled, has great technique and was in tune with my body. She truly has the magic touch and maintained the firm pressure that I like. The customer service was excellent from all of the staff members. I love how easy it was for me to book online (a requirement of mine), even last minute booking worked out well! BUT...I should have CALLED to book as it is required to receive the $10 off of the first massage. Oh well, I love to support small business. The location is fairly easy to find with the help of Google Maps but, can be hard to spot since I do not recall seeing a business sign along the main road (I could be wrong). They share a building and entry with another business (I think it was some insurance company). The massage business sign is on the door so you know it's the right place! I was so pleasantly surprised by University Place Massage. I will definitely be a regular here with Stephanie. I highly recommend checking this place out ASAP!

UGH IF I COULD GIVE YOU NO STARS!!!!!…read more These guys were at the top of my list when I searched for massage places that accept worker's compensation insurance. I visited their website, reviewed all their services and read their reviews. I was eager to get relief from a job-related injury. However, I quickly discovered they are no longer willing to help. They advertise on their website that they assist with bodily and work-related injuries, but they have stopped doing so because they don't get paid the way they want when dealing with L and I. I was told this directly by a team member when I called. It's unacceptable that the medical field prioritizes profit over patient care. I injured myself on the job through no fault of my own, yet I am being denied proper treatment. This is selfish and unjust. If you want to retain customers, update your website immediately so people in genuine need are not misled or left suffering.

She did metamorphosis on me as well as the standard body massage. I wished I had magical powers to transport myself home immediately. I was so relaxed after her session. In my next session I scheduled an appointment with Doug. With my husband's rave reviews about Doug, I also wanted to experience his service. Wow, wow, wow!

Currently pregnant and have been looking for a foot massage place locally, since my feet have been…read moremy biggest issue. I came across Harbor Foot Massage on Yelp, saw the great reviews and decided to give them a try. When you walk in there's a small lobby and you have the option to either have your massage in a private room for an extra fee or out in the general area with possibly up to five other guests. The layout is six massage beds, three rows - with two side by side. My husband and I decided to go in the general area, which at first may seem off putting or uncomfortable but really wasn't because everyone is focused on their own peace/quiet/relaxation. You have a towel over your eyes for added privacy/relaxation and the soft music in the background makes it feel like you are in your own world. My masseuse was Ana (for the majority of it) and she was great... applied the perfect amount of pressure and focused on my problem areas in my feet. The Second Lady was good, a little softer with her technique, but moving forward I'd request Ana. My husband and I decided on the hour long foot massage, which also included a full body massage. The employee spent more time focusing on my feet, as I requested but my husband enjoyed the more in depth massage he received. Overall, for $45/1-hour, I definitely recommend and will be back weekly!
