I walked in and asked for the combo. There are multiple tables in one big, clean room. I was pointed to a table and put my things in a plastic container. The language barrier is very strong, but the people were very nice, and the services great. They covered my eyes and wrapped one of my feet with a heating element (it was a bit too hot and made my big toe so uncomfortable I was distracted for the other foot's massage). Also, there were two mall speakers just outside the door blaring different songs -- the auditory conflict was pretty bad and hard to get over. Foot massage was good! I was then led to a table for the body massage (still in the big room, so all your clothes stay on). I had gone in because my body was extremely stiff from a workout and a long plane ride. This woman worked me OVER! She was NOT effing around. She asked me multiple times if the pressure was okay, so if this is not for you, there's other levels. My massage was 60% not enjoyable but I knew it was going to be worth it. She fixed my stiff body in just 20 min! I will definitely be back, particularly when I'm post-flight!

My husband and I had massages from Maria today and they were excellent - some of the best we've…read moreever had. Maria was especially good with the upper back and feet. I've had massages from chain massage places like Massage Envy all the way up to $1,000 spa packages and the quality of this massage is top rank. This isn't your full service spa with a relaxation room, steam rooms, slippers, robes, and other amenities, but if you are looking for a less-expensive but fantastic massage in a well-decorated but quaint atmosphere, then this is your place! I cross-checked all the massage Groupon offerings with Yelp, and this place was the clear winner. Although it doesn't have a ton of reviews, all of them are glowing - and for good reason! They sometimes have two massage therapists in the office, but I think that was just Thursdays at the time we were booking. Therefore, if you are two people you might have to take the massages in sequence, but it's worth the wait! There's a groupon for $49 for a 60 minute massage. I think if you call and ask they will honor the groupon price without having to purchase it. I highly recommend Maria and Lotus Touch to anyone!

Just ok. That pretty much sums up my experience…read more I got the Swedish massage and the lady was digging her elbow in my back. I've never had a Swedish massage where someone digs their elbow in my back. I feel they do the same massage for everyone and there is no attention paid to someone's individual needs. This is fine if the establishment is charging $29 as most other massage places do that give everyone the same massage in a big room. So I guess here you are paying more money for a private room. The bed wasn't heated. I was cold every time she took the blanket off a section. The bed didn't have a head cradle at the top, was rather a hole in the table where you stick your head. At first I hated this as it was uncomfortable but I didn't get a stuffy nose like I typically do with the face cradles. So I preferred this. I don't understand the tea house portion of the name. They had random boxes of tea on a shelf in the waiting area..... Overall, if you get a "deal" then I'd say come here. I would not recommend it for the full price as you can get more customized massages elsewhere.

Upon arrival I explained I have spine and neck pain, and I was offered to upgrade to a deep tissue massage for $10 more. The room was dimly lit, very clean and there was pleasant tranquil piano music. I loved the atmosphere. My masseuse (Amy) was very good: she asked me beforehand about ongoing issues, told me to warn her if whatever she was doing hurt, and asked my permission to also massage my head/hair (apparently not everybody wants that- it was so good!) I liked that Amy made sure to give attention to my leg which I have injured, without ignoring it all together or overdoing things. I could tell from her technique she knows what she is doing. I will definitely be checking back if there are deals to go here again, or ask for a gift card for Christmas.

This was one of the closer options to me since I don't drive, and I was worried this was going to be a mediocre massage since it didn't cost a lot. This was actually one of the best massages I've had since shopping for them on groupon. Laura was so nice and she had wonderful pressure as well as identifying where the tension was. She used a machine first for my shoulders and back to relieve and warm up my body for about 20 to 25 minutes, then she started rubbing the knots out and it hurt so good. The conversation we were having kept me distracted from how sore my body was. She also noticed that the amount of tension on my shoulders resulted in a slight misalignment in my neck. She got most of my knots out and rubbed the rest of my body for a bit. I appreciated it so much as her husband was kind enough to also adjust my neck and back for me. An absolutely wonderful experience where I will be recommending my family and friends as well.

I was gifted a groupon to Healing Hands and had a disappointing and somewhat nerve-wracking…read moreexperience. First of all, the scheduling system and office both seem to need some tuning up. I made the appointment and was told I would receive an email confirmation....I received 5 (somewhat annoying). I was also asked to fill out a survey beforehand but the link did not work. When I went in for my appointment I was not asked to fill anything out. Strange. The office does not look very professional. The massage table had a drab, wrinkled sheet placed over it and I wondered if it was used by the person before me. I don't even think it was a sheet (maybe just a piece of fabric - as I don't remember seeing seams. The nerve-wracking/scary part of my experience began as I came into the building. The office is in an apartment building at the end of a hallway on the 4th floor. I had the last appointment of the day and was surprised to find the halls dim and quiet (no one around) and no receptionist at the desk. The therapist was finishing with another client and when she left I looked around expecting to see someone else. I was alone in the big, quiet building with a 50-something year old man dressed in black. Besides being creeped out that is also unprofessional, especially when a male is treating female clients. You should always have someone else around for the clients safety and comfort and therapists (so they don't get accused of anything). Since the groupon was a gift I hadn't looked into the clinic, but soon realized it was a chiropractic clinic. The groupon was for a swedish massage but the therapist did a lot of just stretching my arms and legs (which I didn't really care for and couldn't relax because of the atmosphere - being alone and the bright room). He also was cracking my fingers and toes with is painful and creeps me out, but he stopped when I asked. The massage was very mediocre and I honestly didn't feel much different after leaving. When I was leaving, the therapist asked me to fill out a survey on the computer. Again, this seemed unprofessional and he was standing right there so I felt pressure to write a good review. :( Overall, it wasn't a very good experience and I was happy to get out of there.
