Be mindful of having to pay for parking on some streets as well as parking time limits. One thing to note is that there are two entrances--if it's your first time, the entrance across from Dumpling Time is where you'll check in. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly warm and welcoming. The waiting area was comfortable and thoughtfully stocked with refreshments, including water, dates, and dried mangoes, which was a nice touch and made the experience feel more hospitable. I booked a 1-hour Thai massage with Vollra. Before the massage, I filled out an intake form where I could indicate my preferred pressure level and any areas that needed extra attention. I requested strong pressure and she absolutely delivered. She was skilled, attentive, and seemed to know exactly where my muscles needed work. My back had been feeling particularly tight, and by the end of the session I could immediately feel a difference. I left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and significantly looser than when I walked in. A few things to know before booking: the massage areas are separated by curtains rather than private rooms. While this didn't take away from the quality of the massage, noise does travel throughout the facility. During my session, I could hear guests checking in, conversations at the front desk, and people being escorted to their treatment areas. If you're looking for complete silence or total privacy, it's something to keep in mind. I also noticed that this location has a sauna available, though it was never mentioned or offered during my visit. If you're interested in using it, I'd recommend asking when you check in. Overall, the exceptional massage quality, welcoming staff, and thoughtful amenities far outweighed the minor drawbacks. While the open-concept layout may not be ideal for those seeking complete quiet and privacy, the skill of the massage therapists and the warm customer service make this a place I would happily return to. Vollra provided one of the best massages I've ever received, and I'll absolutely be booking again. Be sure to ask about their stamp card rewards program if you plan to go back.

She genuinely cares about her clients and tailors each specific session to her client's needs. My first meeting with Ronit, she wanted to know everything that was ailing me. She let me know what her methods were and how everything is tailored to fit my problem areas. She even goes above and beyond by teaching me about the different muscle groups and how they might be overstrained during my workouts. Most recently, she has sent me an email to incorporate stretches into my workouts in hopes of relieving my chronic back pain. I cannot say enough about the way Ronit handles her clients and she genuinely loves what she does. I highly recommend her if you are in the area. Her rates are competitive compared to any other full body massage therapist in the city so feel free to give her a call!

From the moment we met, she stood out with her petite build, natural curves, and unique appearance. Her expressive face and well-kept hairstyle gave her a polished yet approachable look. The session itself was smooth from beginning to end. After a short table shower, the treatment moved into a deep-tissue massage. Yuri did a good job maintaining consistent pressure and adjusting her pace around the areas that needed more attention. The massage felt thorough without being hurried, and her relaxed manner made it easy to settle into the session. What I appreciated most was how naturally she carried herself. Yuri was friendly, confident, playful, and professional without making the interaction feel overly formal. She was easy to talk to and helped create a comfortable atmosphere throughout the appointment. Yuri also accepts mobile appointments through Telegram YuriHakuha, and bookings are required and very necessary. Her rate is somewhat higher than I would usually spend, but considering the quality of the service and the overall experience, I felt it was justified. I came away pleased with the visit and would definitely consider booking another session with Yuri

I feel so fortunate to have found them that even started a membership with them today because I intend to go in monthly or even two to three times a month because they do such a fantastic job. My massages have all included a combination of massage and stretching. However, if you don't want them to do something, just say the ord and they'll change for you. My therapists have all been highly skilled, intuitive, and very open to minor feedback or guidance. Though, I haven't had to say much at all. Need to feel better? This is your place.

As active people we often have various aches and pains; it seemed like a double win to get massages and also learn how to better give them to each other. Another couple we are good friends with joined us. Alexis reached out ahead of the session to solicit our ideas for the time together and make sure we were fully prepared. When she arrived she immediately set a relaxed, joyful, loving mood. She taught us both a seated, neck/shoulder massage and a more immersive, laying down full back massage with oil. With our small group she provided regular 1:1 feedback, which was very helpful. She also kept it low stress and fun for all. Since the session we have continued to practice some of what we learned. The seated massage techniques are especially easy to incorporate into even a weeknight evening. It was freeing to learn a few easy moves that are consistently well-received. I would strongly recommend Alexis. She is a lovely, warm, talented instructor.
