I was in need of a good massage after a stressful few weeks at work and some lower back pain and…read moreThe Royal Thai Spa did not disappoint! I decided to make a same-day appointment for a deep tissue massage on a Monday and it was easy to make an appointment online. One thing that I appreciated was that the person at the front desk called me ahead of my appointment and asked what kind of pressure I liked as it was my first time visiting. She said she wanted to ensure that I was matched with a staff member who would best fit my preferences to ensure I had a good experience. I don't think I've had that done before the actual appointment at any other place so that was thoughtful. They even offered to take me in earlier if I was available. Once I walked in, I could tell it would be relaxing as the environment was very quiet and peaceful. As soon as I was out in a room and ready for the massage, the staff made sure I was comfortable and asked if I had any areas I wanted them to focus on, to which I answered my lower back. I liked that they even checked in once they started applying more pressure to make sure it was okay. Overall, I was very satisfied with the experience and as someone who sometimes tenses up during massages because it's too much, was able to a actually relax during my appointment and even dosed off a little. Even afterwards, my body feels great and the lower back pain has definitely improved! Overall, I would recommend coming here and would definitely come back to try their other packages.

I suggest arriving a little early to check in, fill out paperwork, and use the restroom. The massage rooms are separated by heavy black out curtains. You can hear others walking by and talking, but everybody was respectful and kept their voices to a low whisper. They ask what areas you'd like more focus on and which areas are off limits, as well as the amount of pressure you'd like for your massage. I loved that they had a pregnancy pillow on top of their massage table; such a nice added touch to ensure optimal comfort. I loved my massage here and will be back for more!

I am a frequent customer of Health Day Spa and truly enjoy coming here. I have my favorite people,…read moreand they have a good group of massage therapists offering different types of massages and package deals to accommodate a variety of needs and preferences. I appreciate the reasonable prices, find the spa clean and nicely set up, and enjoy the convenience of ample parking, including two designated disabled parking spaces conveniently located up front. Jennie, the owner, is very nice and always does her best to accommodate my appointment times. However, I have one significant concern that keeps this from being a five-star experience: the lack of a consistently quiet, peaceful atmosphere during massages. Loud conversations among employees are a common occurrence, and customers can also be quite loud when entering the spa, checking in for appointments, or asking about availability. Conversations often carry throughout the space, disrupting the relaxation of customers who are already receiving massages. This is an issue in both the front room with the massage chairs and the private rooms in the back. In the foot massage area, where the reclining chairs are positioned side by side, continuous conversations among employees while performing massages are particularly distracting. I would like to see these conversations kept to a minimum unless they are directly related to the massage being performed or something that requires attention in the room. Customers come to relax and enjoy their treatments, and ongoing employee conversations can take away from that experience. A quieter environment would allow everyone to fully enjoy their massage. I would really appreciate a stronger emphasis on maintaining a quiet atmosphere throughout the spa. Posting visible signs reminding both employees and customers that massages are in progress and quiet voices are appreciated would be a great start. Perhaps a gentle reminder of spa etiquette could also help everyone be more mindful of the peaceful environment that customers come to enjoy. Employees could keep conversations among themselves to a minimum and speak quietly, while customers could be encouraged to lower their voices upon entering and checking in. These small courtesies would make a meaningful difference for everyone. I have asked for quiet on several occasions, and employees have been respectful when approached. I appreciate their cooperation, but customers should not have to interrupt their own relaxation to request the quiet that should be part of the spa experience. A spa should be a place of peace and tranquility. Quiet should be the standard, not the exception, and maintaining that atmosphere should be a shared effort. I enjoy Health Day Spa and want to continue coming back. With a greater commitment to reducing noise and creating a consistently serene environment, this would absolutely be a five-star experience for me.

I like to get their 100-minute special, which includes a 40-minute foot massage to start and ends with a 60-minute body massage. I noticed they specialize more in acupressure massages so if you like strong massages, this is the spot for you. Ask for Jane or Andy - they're amazing! To avoid a credit/debit surcharge, make sure to bring cash!

It was affordable, and I loved the music she played. She even put a healing spray on my bruises to increase blood flow and help them heal. Thank you so much, Tiffanie!!

This was a life changing experience. I never had a massage before (which I'm not beating myself up…read morefor) and have dealt with awful lower back pain for years after I had my youngest son. I had my first ever massage with Tiffanie and yall.... No pain. After it was done, I couldn't believe how easy it was to get up and put my pants on. No pain, no stiffness. She has miracle hands. Like frfr. I'll be going back even if my back pain is gone permanently because the experience was just that amazing. I was so nervous at first, a bit insecure and not really knowing what to expect but Tiffanie was so kind and inviting. There was no judgement. She gave me clear instructions and made sure I was comfortable with everything. She also talked to me about the importance of taking care of myself and even advised on other things we can do for next time - like acupuncture and waxing (for my facial hair). And her music playlist is on point! Thank you to my mans for making me go for Mother's Day and thank you, Tiffanie, for your healing hands.

The place wasn't very inviting to begin with, we weren't even sure we were at the right place as…read morethere's just a big sign saying "massage" in the plaza parking lot, no signage on the building. And staff wasn't the friendliest when we first entered the lobby. Plus, they make you pay in advance including a $20 tip, which is kinda weird (I'm fine with the tip amount, but requiring customers to pay it in advance is questionable). Fortunately, the masseuses were cordial during our massages in the couples room, and they did a good job delivering a satisfying deep tissue treatment. My bf had the massage table with the bars hanging from the ceiling above, so he got a bit of back walking from his massage therapist. He was satisfied with the pressure and technique. I was all good without the ashiatsu. I loved the strong pressure and my masseuse's ability to find and focus on my knots in my back, shoulders, and legs, using her fingers and elbows. She didn't do my feet, but my face definitely got worked on. Great tension relief while listening to the soothing sounds of peaceful music in the background. A positive experience overall.

I'm a pretty picky when it comes to massages, but this is my FAVORITE massage place ever…read more I used to live aboard and I have gotten massages in Vietnam, China, Thailand, The Philippines and I would say this is by far the BEST. They use good technique and the pressure is deep just how I like it. I have gotten the chance to get massages from all of them and I would say all the ladies technique and pressure are good. I am pretty spontaneous and would book last minute and they are very accommodating ! I usually request Elaine but after getting a massage from Hai Ying, I was blown away. I had this neck pain for a really long time... I got multiple rounds of acupuncture for at least 6 months to a year and it never got better. Each time I move my head left or right, it was super painful. After one message with Hai Ying, the pain was gone. I work from home so I gotten alot of knots and I believe some of the knots on my knees or somewhere was pulling on my muscles and causing pain my neck and shoulders. Honestly, I was super surprised I no longer had neck pain after my massage with her. After that, I been going ever since and would invite my friends whenever I could. I recently moved to LA but I do have family in the Bay Area so whenever I come back, I ALWAYS make sure to book a session with Hai Ying. Her techniques are also unique and I LOVE how she customized the massage based on the knots and my request. I appreciate how she doesn't follow a basic routine but would adapt based on the customers needs. Overall, my experience has been amazing and I would recommend them to anyone who has pain or need to untangle stubborn knots.

I came in for a 60-minute prenatal massage, hoping it would help me relax and maybe encourage my baby girl to make her arrival naturally. Little did I know, just 55 minutes after my massage, my water broke! I was so relaxed, and a few hours later, I welcomed my beautiful baby girl into the world! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Whether it was a coincidence or not, this place will always hold a special place in my heart. I definitely recommend it, especially to expecting mamas!

I had gotten great massages here before COVID. Today was the first time returning there in over a…read moreyear. A pretty, petite gal around 30 yrs. old who said that her name was "Bobo" attended me. I paid for the table shower and a one-hour massage for $70. After the shower, I waited around in the massage room for about 15 minutes as she attended to other clients that entered the business. Finally, she came into my room and tried to explain to me (in broken English) that she was so busy that she wouldn't be able to do the massage(?). Instead, she offered to refund me $20. I told her that I was not in agreement and desired to have the hour-long massage that I had paid for. However, she denied that request, pretended not to understand my English, and refunded me $20. So, basically, I paid $50 for a shower today and didn't get any relief for a very sore lower back. I'll never return to "Chinese Massage" again. I don't recommend that you risk getting played either ;(

So the receptionist told me to go to the room and change. I ask if the bed was just made because it look like somebody just used it so she went out and got me some towel and change the sheet. So if I didn't complain I'm gonna use the old sheet that's have been used. I laid down then the receptionist came and did my massage. I feel that she just practice on me. The worst part is there was this other costumer that had their kids with them and I heard the kids talking for the whole time I was having my bad massage. I don't usually write bad review but I just don't want other people waste their money to this place specially when you want to have a quiet relaxing time.
