I didn't want to post this but in an effort to save the next person's life some pain I am going to…read more This massage hurt my wife. I don't mean the lady pressed a little hard and my wife was tender I mean she used her body weight and elbows to cause bruising on my wife's body and she felt the pain of it for three days after. I purchased a "relaxation massage" as a Christmas gift for her, what we got was not that. Upon entering we was greeted by an older woman with a very withdrawn demeanor, almost purposely mysterious and dark. She was guided into the room which in the pictures looks 1000% different. Check out the ones I posted opposed to the ones the site posted. This is in the back of a hair salon in a small room not the entire salon. In reality there were trash bags on the ceiling broken Xmas lights and a small end table caked in dust with a 5 and below crystal plug in light. The bathroom had peeling dollar store stickers and a mound of paper towels that looked like they hadn't emptied in since dinosaurs roamed the earth. The angry masseuse did not ask her any questions but instead began the medieval beating. I understand they feel things with the muscles and "know" what they are doing, but checking in with the client I would assume to be part of the job. I mean your hands are literally on someone's body and pressing into muscles and skin, communication should be common. I have had tattoo artist more caring about pressure on me. She used her elbows 95% of the time to hold in place and dig into my poor wife's legs, arms , and back. I was not there but from what she told me she was praying it was over 5 minutes into this weird situation. She didn't say anything to the woman because it was just an awkward situation, she came in to be relaxed and unwind and instead was subject to this lady experimenting what it seemed a technique she learned on you tube. She also mentioned there was a glade fragrance mister that every 5 minutes pushed out a puff of apple scented air, other than that no candles, no oils, just this angry ladies body odor which also was something she was combatting while subject to her hour long tirade of pain. The massage finished and without saying much the lady got up and left. My wife got dressed and on the way out the masseuse was sitting cross legged playing on her phone and said there's water, pointing to a luke warm Dixie cup. My wife declined the tepid water and reluctantly handed the woman $10 as it was just the nice thing to do. The lady said nothing, took the money, and went back to her angry birds game I am assuming she just reached the piggies level and we all know how intense that can be. Now you can imagine how embarrassed, angry, and disappointed I was to hear this after I was the one who purchased the massage wanting to help my hard working wife unwind. She came home upset with bruising on the back of her legs, arms, and back. She showed me what the lady did and as someone who is built of pure steel I was begging for her to stop. I couldn't believe it honestly. I messaged the owner Kim who was in disbelief but wanted to make it right by offering a re do with her. I set up a time and when that time came, our infant son got sick and we had to reschedule. I emailed her several times to re plan and was ghosted. I think she was hoping I would go away. Ill post the emails and dates on here if you would like to see. She finally messaged me back very defensive at this point I want nothing to do with this place. I asked for a refund but again ghosted no response nothing. I really tried to talk and make this better as we paid money for a relaxing massage and instead got some archaic elbowing. I am not sure if the masseuse was having a bad day or had some bad blood with my wife we are unaware of but I am definitely not happy. This woman seemed to have a chip on her shoulder from the moment my wife walked in. I get it, your gothic, you dance with metal circles on weekends, and you have a shaved head cool man....but relax. When someone purchases something called a "relaxation massage" and for 90 minutes its digging and ripping heavy elbows something needs to be done. I don't like being ghosted, I don't like being worked with as I have tried to work with this salon to make it better. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I am sure there are more professional, better equipped, smelling, and looking salons out there. I am disappointed it ended up this way and feel bad for any future clients.

The first reviewer is right - it is odd to find something like this in a farmer's market, and the massage is serious. My last chair massage worked out a number of knots in my shoulders and neck, and my questions were expertly answered. The fee seems standard - about a dollar a minute, less so the longer the massage goes on. This was $19 for a 20 minute massage, plus tip. Well worth it, because the rest of my weekend just felt better. I'll be back.
