This place looked legitimate every time i drove past it, i don't know the signs looked okay and they were 5 star on Yelp?
So when i call to schedule an appointment, the woman answers "HELLO!" And i was so taken back i had no idea what to say... booked an appointment (i think), get there and it's just this random room. I yell down into the hallway "hello?" And this woman greets me, speaking ZERO English. Believe me, i do pretty well with language barriers, but i wasn't able to have a single fluid conversation with her.
Once she leaves, i get onto the table and I KID YOU NOT - when i put my face in that little hole in the massage table i was looking down at 2 pairs of men's shoes and 3 quarters on the ground..... she proceeded to give me a one hour massage with ZERO LOTION in a silent room. No music, nothing. She yawned probably 15 times.
Not even kidding it was the most painful experience, she was rubbing straight bone, at one point had her knee up on the table with me (for leverage? Idk) and when she repositioned my arm it brushed up against her phone that was sitting on the bed. Yeah. She was one hand massaging me/phone in the other hand? Idk. needless to say, was very VERY clear she was absolutely NOT a masseuse and had zero knowledge of where muscles are in a body (? Could that be possible?!?) i am more sore today than when i started out yesterday.
Side note: Trust me, i have had a lot of massages and understand that sometimes it doesn't always feel like clouds and you can be sore afterwards. I am in PAIN now. There is a difference. Please see the photo of my back posted with this review.
Worst/best part of the story? To start, i can admit i was not wearing the appropriate underwear for a massage, not knowing i was going to book one until i was out for the day.
So I'm on my back and she's massaging my feet... and she grabs me by my ankles (kind of like you do when you're lifting a baby's legs up to change their diaper) she stretches my legs to the side, then to the other side then TRIES TO STRETCH MY LEGS TOWARDS MY FACE - LIKE UP IN THE AIR - almost completely mooned this woman before saying "no, it's okay, that's good", paying her and leaving.
When trying to make small talk during paying, i asked her if it was just her here and she said yes. Did not make my sign an intake form, and saw zero proof of a healthcare license. Not sure what that means. Not sure what any of this means. But definitely would NOT recommend that place to ANYBODY! read more
