A month ago, I got a massage at a fancy spa. It was nice, but it was like a weedwacker, when I need John Deer. Then, two weeks ago, I got a deep tissue massage from an old Russian man. I thought: This is going to be it… he’ll get the knots out. He made a small dent and told me I need to come more often. After a freak-out moment at work from stress and hating the world, I decided I needed to come here. It was a matter of life and death.(It wasn’t really, but that’s what I felt) And really I should always just come here in the first place. Because they’re the only ones that can do it right. They just attack my shoulders with such ferocity. And they go at it over and over and over. My massage therapist commented on how tight my right shoulder was and she spent like 15 minutes just going at it. And even after going to other spots, she would come back to that shoulder. It was as if it was a battle she wanted to win. That’s the type of massage therapist I want. I want therapists that want to win! Today, they are so sore. I love it. Because I know tomorrow, they’ll relax and feel so much better. No pain no gain! PS… Given they have a statement in their massage rooms, anyone who thinks this is an «oriental massagey» type place — this is NOT. If that’s what you’re interested in, go elsewhere. This is a legitimate place for actual therapeutic massage.

The 1-star is for the dishonesty of the female owner, not for the massage I received, which was FANTASTIC I walked in after a long day of work and told the owner that I’ve seen them before and it was my first time there, and i heard about the 1st time $ 10 off discount. She said that expired. So I got a great massage from EVA, and when I paid $ 60. She handed me the SAME promo flyer that I had(just didn’t bring it with me that day) and said next time if i bring that flyer i can get $ 10. i was a little disappointed at her dishonesty personally. It’d be better if she didn’t give me that flyer at the end b/c that’s the one i was telling her about that she said is «expired». i didn’t feel good about her business since the price was $ 60/hr and the room/ceiling were not sealed so you can hear everything. i rather pay $ 10-$ 15 more for a massage and get a more honest business that does not flip about the discount and has nicer facilities.

I highly reccomend coming here. Excellent professional massage therapists and very clean faucility. Been coming here for many years! I am a regular and buy the 6×1 hour massage pack for $ 300!($ 50/ea.) Can’t beat that as a price/value. I would not be coming back for years, if the service was not excellent. At the end of each massage, they even use hot wet wash cloths to quickly clean off the massage oil used and you get some penetrating heat. You walk out squeaky clean and refreshed! And, immediately after your massage, while your dressing, they change ALL the linens right in front of you! Hot shower, clean towels & linens. Great place.

It was more like a oil rub rather then a massage, not very therapeutic. I’ve had massages done before, and you can tell the difference between a trained and untrained massuist. The massuist was just rubbing my back with oils the entire time, not massaging tension prone areas. The people that work here could definitely use some training, they had no idea what they were doing. On top of that, they had the audacity to make us feel bad for not giving a big tip… definitely not going there again.

Super addictive relaxation. If you want to get away from all the stress of the real world, this is the place to be. At $ 60 it’s right in my budget for an hour of relaxation. I tipped $ 15, because she was really good at removing all the stress of the real world from me. My masseuse was a pro at getting all the knots out from my shoulders. I should’ve asked for stronger, but didn’t want to seem too demanding since it’s my first time there(I’m kind of wimpy like that). I like the walk on the back kind of thing and am into pain for relaxation. I actually fell asleep once during the massage, but only briefly. The place is very clean and well kept, not like some of the other places I’ve seen. It was raining outside and I was worried that it’d be cold or I’d encounter cold hands! But it was really warm inside and the masseuse had warm hands… perfect! Now if I only lived a bit closer so that I don’t have to drive half an hour in traffic to fall back asleep. WASABI P gives this place two thumbs up!

First and foremost, I had only(shame on me) $ 67 cash for a $ 60 one hour massage. I paid up front and there was no question, complaint, or even raised eyebrow. I’ve heard horror stories about people getting chastised or even literally yelled at over not leaving a suggested or generous amount. No such distastedul behavior here. Clean quiet environment, cheap, friendly, and a decent full body massage. If you’re looking for exceptionally well studied therapist and specialized care, you may want to consider other pricier highly reviewed businesses, but if you want to gift or enjoy a very general, relaxing massage than you’ll enjoy this place.

Danger! Danger! This place is dangerous because: A) I am getting addicted to feeling I get after I come out of this place. I was driving home, and i swear to god, it needs to be illegal to drive after a massage like that. My responsive state was greatly weakened. B) Great value — $ 60 an hour. C) They are really close to home. D) They are open, almost all of the time. And you don’t really need an appointment. The two times I went, I called about 2 hours before hand to make an appointment. But when I walked in, they were just kind of like, «1 hour? 1 person? That’s $ 60. Okay, come with me…» Which means I can go at any time. They feel your body out to see where the tension is and really target those areas. They will spend the whole time just massaging the living hell out of those areas, using a variety of techniques to get the knots out. My shoulders and glutes were like rocks and she just massaged the hell out of them. And many places kinda pass over the glutes. Not here — they dive right in. Okay, that didn’t come out right. Let’s just say they don’t shy away from the glutes. Their massages are serious. If you’re not looking for a serious massage, just some place to throw some money down to feel like you’re in a pretty environment, then go elsewhere. The storefront looks«interesting»… but when you go in, you smell clean sheets… clean floor, clean room. That’s all I need. I have gone twice already in a two week time span. …Yes, dangerous. Dangerous indeed. Thank goodness it’s only 60 bucks!
