Despite the other really strange 5star review on here we decided to give this place a try when our usual $20 foot massage spot didn't have room for us on a walk in and I'm glad we did. The space is much much bigger than the store front suggests with 3 private rooms. 3 foot massage beds and a couples massage space and steam room. Its only been 6 months since they opened according to one of the owners and the space is nicely remodeled. Dimly lit, peaceful music, clean and cute decor. My wife and I went in for her birthday massage on a last second whim and found two great masseuses. They were really attentive and thoughtful, especially since my wife is in her late 2nd trimester. Apple made sure she was comfortable and always checked to see if the pressure was ok. We walked in like boards and walked out like jello, if jello could walk. I'm pretty sure we found our new favorite foot massage for Oakland. Will definitely be back again. read more

This place deserves a 5 stars guys, I used to come here at least once a week before the pandemic starts, super enjoyable and calming. Especially right after you get out of work! I usually tell them to focus on the parts that need more strength, although they're not very good in English, but since they're all professional so you can just describe it to them, I'm sure they'll understand you. read more

It's right on the outskirts of Oakland's Chinatown on a little gritty little street, but I didn't feel unsafe. The place its self is also gritty and not pretty. You need to pay up front and the rooms are bare boned with a curtain over each door for privacy. If you need spa music and mood lighting, you won't find it here, but if you're looking for a deep tissue massage that will leave you limp like a rag doll, this is the place! I specifically asked for a male massage therapist (masseur) and Ken was my massage therapist. I have extremely tight QL muscles that most massage therapists cannot or will not dig deep enough to find. It takes work digging into it. I showed Ken the sore spots and he IMMEDIATELY found it and worked on it for a good 30 minutes. It hurt, I'm not kidding, but it's the GOOD HURT you need to break up deep muscle adhesions. He used deep pressure throughout my body and found virtually every knot and adhesion. He did ask several times if the pressure was OK. He even found some on my scalp that I didn't know I had! The massage was incredible all around and I will absolutely be back for more massages!
