Our 1 hour couples massage began with a rose-petaled foot bath. I usually get a deep tissue, but wanted a more relaxing message and my therapist Karina met the perfect "light" pressure for me.

My massage therapist Karina was professional, attentive, and took the time exactly where I was feeling tension. The massage itself was incredible--the perfect balance of pressure and technique. I left feeling completely relaxed, refreshed, and with so much less pain and stiffness than when I arrived. If you're looking for a skilled, caring massage therapist who truly knows what they're doing, I highly recommend this place. I'll definitely be coming back. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.

Shirley is very talented, has very strong hands and has a deep understanding of the body. She was able to get some of my deep knots to the surface by massaging other parts of the body. I booked a two hour deep tissue and she definitely delivered. The place is professional and clean, but note that it is not a spa. I don't think I'd come here for couple massages or a "luxurious typical relaxing" experience, I'd come here for a truly relaxing massage that'll help heal your body. Also, this is not a cheap foot massage spot if that's what you're looking for. I think this is actually the perfect spot if you're looking for a real massage. Would definitely come again!

Hands down, pun intended, this was the BEST deep massage I have ever had. It had been over a year…read moresince my last massage which was given during a vacation. I lost my last local masseuse when he moved from San Mateo to Portugal some years ago & never found a replacement. Let me start by saying Shirley's massage Studio is very peaceful with high ceilings, lovely decorative touches and is painted in soothing colors. The soft music she plays in the background is very relaxing. Shirley is petite, but very strong and her massage techniques really helped to work out some serious knots and kinks that I had been storing up in my body. I know she is trained in a variety of massage techniques, but I requested a 90 minute, very deep one & she delivered. Not only was the massage phenomenal, but the additional touches of hot stones, as well as hot towels used to soothe & then remove oils as she finished each area, we're unexpected and contributed to the lovely experience. I will most definitely be back in the near future. Thank you Shirley!

From the moment I arrived, Jasmine was warm, welcoming, and instantly made me feel like I could trust her--which made all the difference. The massage itself was way more intense than I anticipated--definitely not your average relaxing spa treatment. But Jasmine talked me through every step, explaining what she was doing and helping me understand exactly where my body was holding tension and inflammation. It hurt--but in the best, most productive way. Now? I'm addicted. I try to go at least once a week. We're actively breaking down hard fat, draining puffiness, and targeting areas that really need support. She has an amazing sense for where your body needs help and adjusts accordingly. Adding the hot stones was a perfect, relaxing touch. After just one session, my face looked noticeably less puffy and I felt like I was glowing. Jasmine is absolutely amazing. While I'm hooked on the lymphatic massage, I already know I need to come back just to try a Swedish!

The first time, both my husband & I had deep tissue massages for 90min. It was my 1st time getting that. Swedish is what I get generally, and I much rather that. So, for my birthday, got that the 2nd time, while my husband enjoyed his deep tissue for 60min. If we went 2 times already, that means we enjoy it for the prices, as long as I get Groupon prices. Had Mia & Monica the 1st time, and Even & Yanni the 2nd time. Yanni said don't purchase the Groupon, they'll match the prices.

The session started with a brief consulting session for you to circle your pain areas, followed by selecting your preferred aromatherapy. The message started with softer touches and full relaxations. Once knots have been identified, you will start feeling firmer presses. Very gentle cupping will be used (after your consent) if very stiff areas identified. Even though the goal was getting knots out of the way, the entire session was very relaxing, and of course a good night's sleep.

His style may not be for everyone, but if you want a whole body approach and longer term results, go to Garion! After the sessions, I always feel like a new person. -He fixed my husband's chronic neck pain that he's had for over a decade in just the 1st session!! -Garion is very knowledgeable about all the connections throughout the body. He'll diagnose the sources of your pain and will work along the path. Just cause you have pain in your shoulder doesn't mean you only just deep massage the shoulder, everything is connected so he'll also work on the other parts that lead to problems in the pain area. I was postpartum so he'd ask questions to understand how I held my baby so that he could identify which muscles I was straining -The sessions are not ones where you just relax and fall asleep, you'll work with him by breathing to shift the muscles around for him to access. -Some comments didn't like his light touch but I actually found that the massages where he did very light touch were very effective. I felt a difference and I was amazed. But there were also many sessions that were deep pressure too. It just depends on what your body needs Also, shoutout to the front desk staff who were always very friendly and helpful

The rooms are all pretty similar in layout. There is a bench where you discuss the areas you'd like to address and this is also where you undress and hang your clothes. There is an aromatherapy scent and music preference you choose, and then it is recorded in their system for future visits. The rooms are all nicely consistent in temperature. Once you're on the table, there is a buzzer on the bottom where you let your therapist know you're ready to begin.
