We both opted for the 60-min massage/30-min facial combo, which was $150 (a little less if you paid in cash). You could choose your massage style and pressure, and I went with a Swedish massage with medium-firm pressure and it was perrrrrrfect. I've had massages where I'm sore or could hardly move afterward, but this one left me in a state of bliss for several hours afterward. They also offered add-ons like hot stones or food scrubs (I was too scared to note that they could walk on my back and legs, so I skipped that part!) Our massage therapists started on time and they were friendly and attentive, asking a few times if the pressure was OK. I loved every minute of it. The facial was amazing too, and the combination of products and the facial/neck/head massage was dreamy. I felt like a clean, 100% refreshed lady afterward. Front desk staff is also very nice, and they offer tea or water before and after services. The waiting area and private rooms have soft music, dark walls and low light, and trickling fountains. No sales pitches afterward, too! They have a free parking lot in the back, too! Can't wait to visit this place again!

I really appreciate them taking the time to make better of this situation. --------------------------------------- Disappointed to say the least. Called ahead of time for a 90 minute massage. Once I got in the room and my masseuse met me, she stated I'd be receiving a 60 minute massage. I explained I booked for a 90 minute massage. She left and asked the receptionist and they denied me of a 90 minute massage - if I had known this was the case, I would have gone elsewhere. The massage begins and it was as if the massage wasn't in the room with us. I kept needing to ask for more pressure, and it did get harder but never got there. I asked maybe 8 times until I was just completely over it. I sat there and thought, thank god this is only 60 minutes, what a complete waste. It felt like the lotion did more work than the hands. The massage concluded, and she left for a hot towel & guess what? No hot towels. Typically wouldn't be a big deal but was just the icing on the cake. When I went to check out, I explained to the receptionist that I did not enjoy my massage and I had told her I booked for a 90 minute. All she responded with was "I wrote down 60". The compassion and customer service was also not in the room with us. From what I've gathered, they wanted to leave early. Safe to say worst massage experience, would highly recommend going elsewhere.

AMAZING DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE BY BODA!!!…read more First off, I was asked before the massage what pressure I like, and then during the massage, boda also asked me if the pressure was ok. I LOVE a very deep tissue massage, I have a lot of pain in my neck and shoulders and I've tried so many massage places and I never leave feeling satisfied, I always wish they spent more time on the areas I asked. She released so many knots and I had tears from the relief I felt . No one can ever give me enough pressure, and she was STRONG. I'm 100lb female and at no point was boda hurting me at all. BODA stayed true to a deep tissue massage, while also incorporating Thai, Swedish, shiatsu, and even sports massage techniques. She stretched my neck and back in ways that gave me a release I've never had from massage. Her vibe was calm, and sweet, and the overall place was nice. It really is a secret hole in the wall spot. I won't go anywhere else for a massage after this honestly. For the first time in 15 years I woke up in the morning without shoulder and neck pain. Very professional, and I felt very comfortable. Thank you BODA. I will be back :) Please try this place out if you are in the area, You can't beat it. I paid 70$ for an hour massage and gave a 20$ tip .

Disappointed -- especially by the attitude toward tipping…read more I booked a massage after a really hard, exhausting week and a long working day. I was extremely tired and came there simply wanting to relax and switch off. To be completely honest, the massage itself was not perfect. The woman who worked on me seemed very inexperienced -- honestly, at times it felt like it might have been one of her first massages. There was no real flow, some of the movements felt clumsy, and there were moments when it seemed like she wasn't sure what to do next and would simply repeat the same movements. The massage was $80, and I decided to leave a $10 tip. The woman at the reception looked at me, laughed in my face, and told me that it was not enough. At first, I genuinely didn't even understand what she wanted from me because her English was limited. Then she told me that I should leave $20. So I have a question for the woman who was working at the reception on August 12th around 7 p.m. Who are you to judge me based on the tip I choose to give? Who are you to laugh in my face? Who are you to humiliate and embarrass me over $10? You know absolutely nothing about me. You don't know what kind of day I had. You don't know what kind of week I had. You don't know what $10 means to me or what circumstances I may be dealing with. Maybe $10 is not enough for you. But it was my money, my choice, and my gesture of appreciation A tip is a gesture of appreciation, not something that should be demanded, judged, or used to embarrass a customer. If you expect a specific gratuity, then make it a clearly stated service charge -- don't shame people at the register for exercising their choice.

So like I said she was tearing me up so I asked her move down to my legs and she just kept saying later. At that point you continue to just tear me up no matter how painful it was. Then when I first got there she kept going in and out of the room then when she finally came back in she said give me a couple of minutes I've got a customer leaving It took her almost 5 minutes to get me a hot towel to wipe me down since I was all oily. To me this was the worst experience I've ever had. Needless to say I will not be back Take this as a warning to everybody please be careful and try to go somewhere else.

I sensed this might be the case because I tried calling shortly after they opened but no one picked up. I got a call about 15 minutes later though. I requested 2 70-minute massages and asked for strong massages. She reminded us to bring cash for tips and that there was an extra dollar surcharge for using card (and that they did not accept Amex). She also asked us what we wanted to focus on that session and we let her know, but I felt like the therapists didn't necessarily focus on those areas too much ultimately. The massages themselves were fine. Mine started off strong during the foot massage with a nice shoulder rub. But my partner said his started off less strong during the foot massage. He also said that much of his body massage entailed massaging a lot of bone but not necessarily tissue, although the person was strong. My body massage was just okay. There was a lot of rubbing and pressure point massages but not necessarily getting out knots. Overall it was just fine and the massages themselves were more like 3 stars. For the price, it is a solid massage place -- $50 for a 70-minute combination massage (30-minute foot and 40-minute body). But it's nothing special.
