A few years ago a friend and I were spa members at a place in pismo. It was expensive but it was nice. I went to the mall and decided to try out this place. It was amazing! Great prices and it was honestly nice having the ladies get on the table and put their back into it! So we cancelled our pismo memberships and decided to stay local. The first couple massages were nice. But lately, something's changed. The last few times I've gone they always seem distracted. Their phones are ringing and they have to leave in the middle of the massage. Multiple times!! Then one of the ladies is yawning the whole time. LOL!! Today a lady was wearing a rain-like jacket and every time she moved it would just rub against the material and it was just super loud. I guess when you go to a place with "relaxation" in its name you figure you could at least do that. Kind of a bummer but not sure if I'll give them another chance. It's been not so great the last 3 times we've gone. Bummer. Maybe paying more is worth peace and quiet. read more

Never thought I would enjoy getting massages from a massage place located in the mall, but here we are, keep going back to Asian Relaxation Massage almost monthly. We had been living in the area for about half a year, and I was super skeptical about this place. We have tried several other places in the area, but none we were really happy with. It wasn't until my husband decided to give this place a try and persuaded me. The place is exactly what you would imagine a massage parlor in the mall would be like. It's simple, can get a big loud with kids running and screaming outside. However, everything is clean and tidy. They have the usual relaxing music plus the mini waterfall machine or whatever you call it, both going at the same time to help drown out the noise. The star of the show here is of course the massage itself. Every time we have been here, even with different people we have gotten, everyone has been very consistent with their techniques, knows exactly where all the knots and tight spots that need the extra attention are. They specifically focus on them until they feel like the knots have been resolved. Don't be shy to ask them to move on or be a little gentle. Overall, the price is extremely reasonable. We don't care much for anything fancy as long as we feel like the massage helped. They also offer loyalty program where they give you a stamp card for each massage you get. After 6 or 8 (i can't remember exactly) massages, you'll get a free one of the equivalent, even more reasons for us to come back. read more

Very clean, tidy, welcoming, and professional masseurs. This massage parlour has been in business for 16 years and is a very cosy family place. read more

Great place for a quick massage! Anda is fabulous. English isn't their first language but they make it work for your needs.

I thought I'd give this place another try after some years later. I walked up and waited for someone to greet me and asked which massage I wanted. I was able to get a 60 min massage. The lady I had got all my knots on my upper back area, but once she got to my lower back I had to tell her to go lighter. She didn't understand and asked another lady who was in the same room what I mentioned. I was surprised and a little uncomfortable. I felt a little sore on my back area but I wanted my knots gone. She was a bit rough where my body was moving back and forth. After I left I saw people waiting for a massage. This place is still in business read more

I have always received an excellent massage from this place. Always polite, never pay until done. Very much worth the money. Only suggestion is a darker table massage room. Better massages? Yes, but the value is there. I always tip. read more

Worst massage I have ever received. I usually get massages at least once a month. On this particular day, I was passing through town and was desperate for a massage. I pointed to 1hour table massage, thinking I would get a full body massage. Nope. My therapist spent the majority of the time massaging my back, shoulders, and neck. Everything else was neglected. She also did not cut her fingernails so there were several times where her nails were scratching me during the massage. It was so uncomfortable and made my skin itch. This experience makes me not want to get a shopping mall massage again. read more

I really like this place for a foot massage the value is really great and they do make you feel relaxed. Het name was leah

Great stop in the Santa Maria mall for a foot massage. Always professional, relaxing, and clean. They have specials for foot and back massage combos. They have frequent visit cards if you want to rack up the points for a free service. The foot massage includes a foot soak, hand, food, head massage, and a super comfy chair. Well worth the money, stop in you won't be disappointed. read more

I had a 90-minute massage at Asian Relaxation massage.There was nothing relaxing about this massage, It just caused me pain. After 40 minutes I got off the table and left read more

Quiet relaxing atmosphere, clean and professional environment. Did a 35 min full body massage and it was amazing. The masseuse really focused on most tense areas and used deep tissue massage on those. Every area from the scalp, back of neck, shoulders, back, back of legs, calves and soles of the feet was addressed. Operated by two certified massage therapists. I'd rather skip going out to eat and get a massage instead now! Chinese relaxation chair massage and foot massage offered as well. read more

I've been looking for a place like this in Santa Maria. I like to try places that don't have doors on their rooms. No place to be sketchy. I made an appt at 10. They put me in a rather large room. I got a 60 min table massage. It was a good massage. I like getting massages to get all my knots out more than to relax. She definitely got my back and neck! It was good getting the knots out. I do wish the room was darker and that they used hot stones. I am really good at blocking out noise I don't want to hear so it being in the mall didn't bother me. For $49 it was great and I will definitely be back when I am in town and need a massage. read more

How this place only has one other review I do not know. This was a spur of the moment visit. We had been walking by and saw the sign with the prices. I frequent the mall but this is the first time I actually really noticed the sign. I asked my mother if she wanted to try it out with me and she said yes. I requested the larger "special" package of 60 minutes of table massage and 30 minutes of feet massage for her and just 60 minutes of feet massage for me. They whisked my mother off behind a curtain and I was whisked into a chair lining the wall. The lights got dimmed and a large plastic lined wood bucket of hot water appeared for me to stick my feet into. Once my feet started their soak I was surprised to receive a short neck/face/head massage. She quickly did an arm and hand rub-down, gave me some headphones to listen to some music and stuck my head into a neck pillow. The foot massage came next. Oiled, rubbed and covered with a thick white towel. I drifted off a few times, this lady was so good. My mother's hour and a half special along with my own hour procedure cost me $108.00. Excellent price and amazing service. I will definitely be back and I wish them much success. read more

Sorry, but this is one of the worst and most expensive foot massage I've ever had. In Los Angeles average $15-25/hr and in San Jose $20-25/hr. In santa barbara county $39/hr! Too rich for me but price is not the reason for a low score. I walked in late afternoon and massage had no energy, perhaps my masseuse had no energy that day =( Massage started with the head then hands and lastly the feet going back and forth left to right to left to.... I'd give a 2 star but the neck pillow and headset to attempt to drown out the noise from the mall was relaxing but still noisy. Maybe I just got a lackluster masseuse but seriously up there for worst massage read more

The woman that worked on my upper back burped twice during my 30 minute massage with no shame haha. Worked the right side of my upper back just fine but when she got to the left side she worked my spine like she was not paying attention and now i feel badly bruised. Won't be going back unfortunately. read more

This place is wonderful. I've been here 2 times now and loved every minute of it. It's relaxing especially during the foot reflexology massage they put headphones on with oriental relaxation music I went for a 30 min foot massage and took a mini nap! It was amazing!! first time I went I got. 1 hour combination massage which was to die for!! read more

Went in for a 30 minute massage. I am not impressed, it is in the middle of the mall, it was noisy and not relaxing, will not return.

Large, clean room. Very professional. Great reflexology massage. I will definitely be back!!! Thank you.

6/19/19 I"ve probably gotten 200 chair, foot or whole body massages at the Asian Relaxation Massage in the last 5 years. They are always fabulous and I leave feeling the stress drained from my body and in much better shape than when I arrive. They have really made massage so much easier for me to just pop in and get my pain relieved in a short, quick few minutes. Or I've had the full body treatment to luxuriate in. Their employees are very good! read more

Their 20 minute foot massage should be called the 12 minute. Maybe they count the minutes your feet are in the tub. This happened last time I went too. I wanted to sit there a few minutes after she was done, but she promptly removed my headphones and pulled the ottoman out and prepared for the next customer. Won't go back. read more

This is my Favorite! Excellent Massage. Great service. Courteous Staff. Great Positive Attitude. Great Prices too. Couldn't ask for more. I've been coming for years. The Best!! read more

First I got sat in a broken chair for a 20 neck massage. Then they moved me to another chair that could not maintain its setting, causing a few minutes of stoppages. Apparently this counted against my time. When I mentioned it to them after, the lady who did the massage started smirking, as in disbelief that I would not be happy about paying for the time they spent constantly fixing a chair. The massage itself was good though, so if you're okay with bad equipment and poor customer service, this is the place for you. For me, it was cheap for a reason. read more

This place is really good I've come in with lots of pain and left feeling really good. I go all the time as they keep track of your massage after 8 you get a free message. Way better then orcutt massage here they actually respect being quiet read more

This place used to be really great, for a quick chair massage or foot rub. Not so much anymore. My friend and I went last Fri. evening and the two ladies doing our massages talked to each other the entire time!(not very helpful when someone is trying to relax!) Also, I had to ask the woman to please go lighter. She very sweetly would reply "sorry" and begin to go lighter but as soon as her converstion ensued, it was back to the same pressure! Also...the two ladies switched places during our massages because..I guess the one lady understands little to no English...so the lady who took over must have been "in charge"...because she ran to the front at least 3 different times to help her co-worker check out another client. She would then breathlessly run back to my rub and say.."so sorry." Its funny how my foot rub ended at the same exact time as my friend's. I thought maybe she would extend it a few minutes to make up for those several disruptions, but....nope! Will probably not give my business to this place anymore. Very disappointed! read more
