    The massage bed
    Reika H.

    I was looking for a spa that offered scalp massages last minute and found this place online. The reviews were pretty good and I was easily able to book an appointment for the same evening. I had a very good experience and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. I booked the 40 minute head massage which started with the massage itself and then shampoo and conditioner and then ended with a blow dry//hair styling. The whole experience was very relaxing and since it was my first time, they gave me a 15% discount.

    I have to find one of these in ATL. First, 10 stars for Cece, sweetest, cutest scheduler, receptionist, front desk lady ever! She does it all, but is not the boss. So sweet, extremely nice, customer service 10 out of 10. We needed an appointment for two at a specific time, they were booked and short staff but she called in backup employees and squeezed us in. As far as the setup and interior, very disappointing. I really was expecting a quiet, private spa like setup, it's not that. You are separated by a curtain from the person next to you. If they cough, you hear it. The stations are literally at the entry. So while you are trying to relax, you hear people talking, coming in and out of the place, paying their bill, making appointments, just a mess. I of course was in the first station so I was freezing because it's right by the door and it's winter in Boston! Fun! It's not dark in your wash area/station, it's very bright because everything is in one place so forget taking a nap. They try to combat this with a HOT eye mask. I nearly passed out from a headache. I need cold compresses on my eyes, not heated. They explained it's a Japanese tension therapy method. No thanks. I took it off. The actual head spa table/bed wash station: Extremely uncomfortable. I am 5'3 and I could not relax and kept moving around the entire time because the mechanical bed was too short even for me and my lower calf right at my ankle was hanging out and hurting/falling asleep. Can't explain it. The actual hair wash was awesome, the atmosphere, not at all they really need a revamp to be more of a private room spa. I would definitely get a membership. At the end they offer blow dry and styling your hair and have cheap old products you can use. That was a no, we left with our hair wet. Tips: 1. Request the station furthest from the door. It still sucks because now, you're closest to the people blow drying, but better that than hearing Karen's argue about appointments they don't have at the door like my experience. 2. Bring your own hair products. Your hair will feel really clean and fresh, make sure you have your quality products to put on after. I use Olaplex and Moroccan oil products. They need to get a contract with one of those companies. 3. Bring your own NECK SUPPORT! They had my head sitting on the bare hard surface with nothing in between my neck. Just open space. I have so many neck pillows and even the bath head pillows that are waterproof I wish I had. You'll need it to enjoy the service. They have nothing there. A towel maybe but no. Thank me later. 4. Bring your own heated blanket or a throw. I get cold. They literally cover you with towels that have zero insulation to keep you warm and cozy. No. Bring your own that you don't mind getting wet. 5. Bring you own eye cover. They have the cucumber circle looking ones I got from homegoods that you catch put in the fridge and cover your eyes, bring something like that to at least combat the light. 6. Ask to see the hair after. Before your service, they use a tool and computer display the state of you hair. Mines was full of gel and had some dry spots. Because we came before closing, when we finished they were leaving and did not show how clean the scalp was after. I wanted to see that. All in all try it. For the purpose of having your clean be washed and really clean, highly recommend.

    Before (dry, flakes) and after of my scalp

    Lay back and relax at An Japanese Spa. I have been longing to try out a head spa and one of my friend's had posted about this place so naturally I had to try it out! I booked a 100 minute deep cleansing scalp therapy on their website. Quick and easy. This place is located in the Kam Man market plaza in Quincy. Easy to find. Upon entering, I was greeted and waited since I was early. They had tea and candies for patrons which was nice. Once my appointment time was ready, someone took me to a chair where they examined my scalp with a small camera. The woman told me that my scalp was dry and flakey but overall my strands were thick. She said it was good to have multiple strands in each root. She saw that I had some noticeable blood vessels which could mean stress or lack of sleep (both true). After I was taken into a small room with a curtain. The room was next to the waiting area. They had me change into a body wrap and then I laid down in the massage bed. It was very comfortable! From there Bella started on the treatment. She did some scraping, added serums, washed, lathered, and massaged my head. She also gave me a mini facial (no extraction) and she put a sheet mask on and put my head in an herbal steam. This was my favorite part! I felt like I was on a warm beach. The only downside to the treatment was because the room was only separated by a curtain so it was kind of loud. The massage bed was good and there's a place for your arms as well! She could add more or less pressure on the bed. Afterwards, she brought me back to the camera to look at my scalp. What a difference!It was so satisfying to see how clean my scalp was afterwards. Then she gave me a blow dry. My hair was super soft and shiny after. I had asked her how often the treatment should be done and she said monthly. My deep scalp treatment was $128 total but for first timers, she took off 15% so it was only $105 plus tip. Honestly a great price for what you get! I would definitely come back.

    Wow! This experience was truly exceptional! I can't wait to share my wonderful journey with you. From the very beginning, their responsiveness while scheduling the appointment was impressive. Upon arriving, I was immediately taken aback by the comforting ambiance of the place. The staff's warm and friendly nature made me feel right at home. Let me tell you about the 100-minute scalp therapy - it was an absolute revelation! I had no idea how much my body needed this kind of relaxation. By the end of the session, I felt completely rejuvenated and refreshed. Without a doubt, I will be returning for more of this incredible experience. Thank you to the team for providing such an unforgettable spa visit. I highly recommend everyone try it out and indulge in some much-needed self-care. My hair is so soft, shiny and smells amazing.

    If you are looking for a relaxing experience to forget about life for a few hours, this is the place! Spa is extremely clean and the staff is wonderful. I got the combo with the scalp treatment with the one hour massage. I can't stop talking about my experience with everyone I know. Thank you!

    You must go!!!! I frequently get massages/ spa services (2x per month minimum) and this had to be my most favorite experience I've ever had in 15 years! My day was magical. It was like 1/2 day. It was incredible. From the services, to the cleanliness, to the staff. I felt like I was in a dream. The prices cannot be beat. This was such an experience. Cannot wait to go back. I got the 100 minute scalp experience followed by a one hour massage. Everything was wonderful. P.s I asked them to take these so I could show what it all looked like to my friends. I am not getting anything for free to write this review. The ladies & the spa just deserve it!

    Massage bed: comfy, all over massage including your arms + legs; heated eye masks

    Wasn't luxury, and wasn't a head spa as advertised. Just typical hair wash bowl and spray. Not up to par....

I can't speak for my fiance but he walked out feeling the benefits of the sports massage. (IMO: My fiance lifts weight 4x/wk so he definitely needed someone with strength working on him!) My prenatal massage may not have been the routine prenatal massage you'd get at any posh place that would smell like lavender and offer you a foot soak with rose pedals before you come in. I am a hygienist that has been working a desk job and 16 weeks pregnant. So walking in I told them I am uncomfortable in certain places and reported that I clench my teeth and do get numb in my right shoulder. I asked ARLYN for an areas-specific message and he addressed it and is super effective at finding and relieving knots. I read in other reviews (Yelp and groupon) not to come here expecting a typical "massage." Which they were spot on. But that's ok. If you are like me and experience aches and tightness in places no other massages were able to get out.... come here to get fixed!

    One of the better spots in Quincy for deep tissue work. I had neck pain and my wife had back pain…read moreso we were in desperate need of someone to work out the knots. Joe was able to give us the relief that we were seeking though I was sore afterwards and the next day. It's going to be tough and painful but it works. Definitely don't come here if you are looking for a soothing, relaxing Swedish massage. It's called therapy for a reason. Joe is very friendly and approachable and took all the necessary COVID precautions to make you feel comfortable. This is a no-frills, small operations so set your expectations accordingly. Scheduling is done via email instead of the website. Joe was quick to respond, and we were able to figure out a time via text and email. He does take credit cards but it's quicker to transact in cash if you can.

    I like deep massages. Not the relaxation kind. Especially not the someone's-just-touching-my-back…read morekind. I mean deep, intense massages that work your muscles and make you sore the next day. This is really hard to find. Most massages just aren't that satisfying, and until I met Joe, the only massage therapist I really liked was in St. Maarten. Not exactly convenient for this Brookline girl. I met Joe by chance two years ago when he provided chair massages at work for a group of us working on a big project (same company as Freya H, who reviewed Joe previously). I do not like chair massages. I think they're completely unsatisfying--no benefit to my muscles and just a waste of time. But after three people independently told me how incredible Joe was for their chair massage, I signed up for a spot. And WOW. I wouldn't describe it as a chair massage but more like a massage that happens to be on a chair rather than a table. I was grunting like Claire Dunphy in the massage chair at the mall. Joe came weekly for several months while the project continued, and I never missed an opportunity to have him work the stress and tension from my muscles. After the chair massages in the office ended, I started making the journey to Quincy to see Joe. Totally worth it. He's my guy. Awesome massages and just an overall nice, affable person.
