Side note: I'm a certified massage therapist since 2012. I get terrible massages are a thing but half the body neglected is shameful. Guaranteed this spot is not licensed.

So, first I must say I appreciate that they try and accommodate walk-ins. I needed a massage and…read moremy regular provider was a bit far away, I did not want to drive - so stopped in here. My regular massage is $60 an hour- as are most asian massage places - so figured it would be the same or close to it. Well, I should have checked- as once done - and they had my credit card ( no price list was visable ) - I was told that it was $80 with a credit card surcharge of a buck or 2. I am like " OK...I did not know this" but agreed...fine, right?. Then she turns to me about my tip. Let me say - I am very generous and always leave a 40 or 50 dollar tip for an hour as the massages are relatively cheap for what you get - and they work hard; if it is good it is worth it its how I feel. I was informed that my $40 was not adequate...Umm ..this is a TIP people !!....so at this point I knew I was getting "rolled" - haha - Honesty, I just wanted to leave and not be rifled anymore. So I gave in for another $20 and left. This is sad because they were friendly enough on entry - and the massage was very good. The massause was talented and I would definitely recommend the service. However, I am just not happy about the business practices. I will continue to see my regular lady- even though this place is closer to home. I would have been a long time customer as I am pretty loyal, but not to be.

If you like deep tissue massages with hot stones (and I mean deep), you're going to love this…read moreplace. I asked for a *gentle* 1-hour Swedish massage with hot stones, but due to the language barrier, I was assigned to a male therapist who gave me what I can only describe as a full-throttle deep tissue session. Right now, At 7:33 AM the next morning, I'm still recovering. I can't even sit back on the couch. Ouch. To be fair: the massage itself was very good... if that's the intensity you're looking for. But I didn't request deep tissue, and despite trying to clarify mid-massage, the language disconnect made it difficult to adjust. Most of the time was spent on my back and lower waist, and I'll be blunt...there's a level of close contact here that not everyone will be comfortable with. In the process of maneuvering around the table and working deeply, there were moments of full-body proximity that included unintentional contact with the masseuse's more... PERSONAL areas. It wasn't lewd or inappropriate, just a side effect of close-quarters bodywork. But if you're squeamish about that kind of thing, this may not be your spot. BUT NOW...let me sing the praises of the hot stones. Truly the highlight. They're included with the massage and offer soothing, deep heat without burning. After the intense pressure of the deep tissue work I didn't ask for, the stones were a welcomed slice of heaven. I'd come back just for those alone. I could do this part every single day. In short: this place delivers a strong, effective massage...but be clear and very specific about what you want, and understand that the language barrier may require a bit of patience. Also, prepare for full-body immersion ***in every sense***. Body parts may touch but they are simply doing their job. Enjoy.

The entry is serene with white noise machines on the doors to keep what's behind them nice and relaxed. The lobby had several things to look at while waiting. Once JP finished the session before, the table linens were changed and I was brought in to review what needed attention. Since I was there specifically for my left shoulder, that was the focus. I did a 30 minutes session which went by wayyy too quick. JP did a great job of going slow to not cause any discomfort and asked how the pressure was along the way. Talk about relaxing! I'm intrigued to see how the area feels after a nights rest as I've been dealing with the issue for several months. Despite doing PT, there's was something not quite getting to the exact location of he tension. I could feel the areas I've been missing with trigger point in myself being addressed during the massage. Talk about a win! The cost wasn't too bad, $65 for 30 and I will do an hour next round to do a full body massage. The venue was quaint and quite perfect for relaxation.

We both enjoyed our massages and plan to switch therapists next time to experience the other's technique. That said, our rooms were noticeably different. Mine was smaller and more basic, while my husband's was larger and more thoughtfully decorated, which impacted the overall experience a bit. The music in my room was also unexpected--chill R&B instead of the usual nature sounds or soft piano, which I typically prefer. Kenia had a great flow to her movements and was really in tune with my body. She worked out all my knots and even found tight spots in my glutes. Afterward, I had a cup of water waiting for me at the front which I appreciated.
