    Been needing some relaxing and TLC so my sister and I wanted to check out The NOW. Two deep tissue massages for 80 minutes totaled $370 after tips. Quite pricey in my opinion but overall a good experience. Parking is convenient in a parking garage. The parking structure is shared with an apartment complex and there is a 2 hour parking validation which is a big plus! Parking can be so annoying in Pasadena lol. Upon entering the lobby, it was a nice clean area that smelled of soothing candles/essential oils. The people who checked us in warmly greeted us and gave us water while we waited for our masseuse. When the time came for our massage, I let my masseuse (I forgot her name but she was super nice!) know of any aches and pains I was feeling. My massuese assured me she would check in on the pressure and to let her know of any specific areas I would want her to massage. Before entering the main massage room, she let me know that we have to whisper and be mindful of the other clients getting massages. The main room was a dimly lit room with curtains to separate everyone. There was a very soothing and relaxing audio of ocean waves that made the massage so much more enjoyable. The massage was overall very enjoyable and the ambiance made it all the more relaxing. My massage started a little behind schedule so my massuese was kind enough to extend our session together. The only downside I would say is the price of the service. I felt like the total of $185 per person for a 80 minute massage was quite steep. Not sure if I would come back again, it was a nice one time experience.

    The Now is my most favorite place in the world. The aesthetic is modern, minimal and inviting. Every staff member is pleasant and professional. I'm treated as royalty when visiting and upon returning. I hope they never go out of business. I've booked with a number of therapist and each was able to attend to my needs and desires. I hope they more locations

    I work for the humane society and we have been working nonstop for the wildfire relief - this business kindly offered our team members a free 25 min. massages. The space is warm and clean. The front staff was kind and welcoming. Before entering the massage my masseuse asked me where I needed to be massage. When entering the place it felt like I was transported to Thailand. Big room with closed off smaller rooms. The sound of waves and warm light gave a great vibe. My massage was wonderful ( too short) LOL it was great! And I appreciate this company offering this to me and my team highly recommend this company!

    This was my first time at the Pasadena location (have been to the CDM location before) and my sister and I had a great time. It's located just slightly off the beaten path of old town Pasadena so it can be a little hard to find. I love how simple it is to book everything for yourself and a guest online, including all the add-ons. Everything is easy and transparent as far as pricing goes (although it is somewhat expensive but we were splurging a bit). I went with the Now 50 with hot stone and my sister went with the Now 50 deep tissue with scalp renewal add on. When we arrived, our massage therapists talked with each of us for a few minutes about our needs, preference, and any areas of concern. I felt like they really cared about making the experience personalized. Once they finished, they walked us into the treatment room. Everyone is essentially in one big, dark room with these big canvas sheets separating us for privacy. It's actually much nicer than it sounds and for the most part, I was unbothered by the surroundings because the soothing ocean waves drowned everything out. It's really quite a relaxing experience. Iliana took her time to really work out the knot in my shoulder that had been giving me pain, using the hot stone for targeted pressure. I felt so much relief when we finished I felt like I was in a bit of a dream state. My only recommendation is that they install a water fill up station! It's important to hydrate after a massage and the tiny single-use cups just didn't cut it and are so wasteful.

I had Cindy today and she exceeded all my expectations! Her massage style was the perfect mix of relaxing but strong. I have chronic back pain and I felt so much relief. This is going to be my new go-to spot for massages!! Dustin at the front desk was so friendly and made me feel welcome and Cindy was just amazing. I can't wait to come back.

    What an amazing experience!…read more I got a gift certificate for Christmas and I couldn't wait to book since I experience chronic pain in my back. Once I got there I was easily checked in and asked to fill the form of where I would like to focus on/avoid which I really appreciated. I highlighted my shoulders/traps area since that is where I carry most of my tension and pain. Upon entering the treatment room, it was quaint and perfect. My therapist started off in the areas that I experience the most pain and quickly helped me relieve the tenderness in those areas which I was so grateful for. I've been into countless other massage rooms where I spend nearly an arm and a leg and don't even provide any relief like my therapist Tina did! I was sooo so grateful, I could've cried. Throughout the whole treatment I felt really comforted and taken care of. Her touch was firm but most of all, perfect. The technique was unlike any other massage I've had in the best way possible. It felt like a lot of acupressure involved which I appreciated. The music was serene and the essential oils really help you relax! The 60 minutes felt like an eternity but in the best way possible because you just feel so well taken care of. Every minute feels set with intention. Thank you so much ABD Spa and Tina!! I am so grateful and can't wait to book my next appointment!

Noise/Vibe: SOOOO incredibily noisy. I came in a minute before my appointment and the workers were frantic, running around and speaking anxiously and it wasn't a huge deal, no one was rushing them and they were still checking out the previous appointment. Then they asked me if I wanted to buy a gift card for a couple hundred dollars (it was my first time there???). Also tried to upsell while I was on the table and again at check out. This was the biggest thing. The whole point is to relax and even when I was in the room I still heard the customers and staff talk so loudly. Other places I've been to always have quiet signs and the staff also speak softly. The facialist was slamming boxes in the room and also had to refill the water twice (never had that happen ever) Facial: Was okay. Average products. She used a suction thing and rather than drag it on my face she tapped it and pulled at my skin. She also caught my nose ring after I told her I had one and she was like "oh it hurts?" and I was like yeah when I have something pull it hurts. She did do extractions which was nice but said the time would come off my massage, which I did appreciate about the communication. If I needed an "emergency" facial, maybe. Otherwise I'd just drive to Wi Spa or Korea town and get the whole vibe for the same $100

    My wife and I recently visited Bamboo Creek Spa for a couples massage…read more We were able to walk in and they accommodated us right away, which we really appreciated. The price was reasonable, and the oil massage itself was good. They also used hot stones, which added a nice relaxing touch. Communication over the phone beforehand was a bit challenging due to a language barrier. We initially called just to check availability. Shortly after, they texted us their business card, which felt unexpected since we already had their information and that's why we called in the first place. We've never had a business text their card unless we asked for it. They then called again, which came across a little pushy rather than simply informational. The biggest downside during the massage was privacy and time. The door to our room was left open, and other workers and clients were walking past, which made it hard to fully relax. Also, my massage therapist stepped out during the session to assist someone at the front desk and did not make up for the time. Another comfort issue: they placed a paper towel over the face cradle where you rest your head. It made breathing difficult, and I actually had to poke a hole in it to breathe more comfortably. Most massage places use a breathable cover or cloth instead. One small but noticeable thing: most massage places offer water before or after the session, and that wasn't offered here. Overall, the massage itself was solid and the walk-in availability was convenient. With better privacy, a more relaxed communication approach, and a few comfort and hospitality improvements, the experience could be much better.

How unprofessional. I was baffled to hear this. Then the last half of the massage it seemed like she was simply rubbing just to pass time and not actually massage.
