Luckily I found Massage Essence online and it matched my needs pretty well. It is located in a strip mall on Red Hill, pretty easy to find. A good landmark is the MacDonald in the same lot. Massage Essence is on the second floor. I used the staircase since I didn't find an elevator. The massage room is nicely decorated. The music is piped in from a wall mounted speaker. I was happy with the strength and techniques of my masseuse. The price is reasonable too, a 60 minutes signature massage was $65, cheaper than other places I have visited. Yes, I plan to be back next month.

DO NOT GO HERE!!!! booked a reservation for couples massage today 5/11 at 3pm on Mothers day …read more.. have text confirmation... get to Tidi Thai and they tell us "Sorry but we can't do your couples massage" even though there were 2 massage therapist there. offered nothing ! not even if we waited an hour and tried to send us to another place on other side of town but wasn't sure if could book appointment thanks for ruining Mothers Day YOU SUCK! she said "no one communicates and we have no idea about your appointment" ... guess this is only for Happy Endings ... just not the one we were looking for no manager. no accountability. no sorry we ruined your planned Mothers Day and did absolutely NOTHING to make it right

Perfect example to never judge a book by its cover!…read more The outside of this location looks a little run down & sketchy but once you get inside, it's a very humble, well-kept place that gives off zen energy. My bf got a couples massage off group on for $116, which includes a regular Thai massage, hot stones, "yoga" & herbal tea. They have regular massages that differ in price when you pay with cash or card & they're by appointment only. We've gotten so many Thai massages in Thailand but this was one of the best we've had. The ladies here know exactly what they're doing. Thai massages can get pretty aggressive, so make sure to specify the pressure you prefer. Our "medium pressure" massages were perfect enough to release all the tension in our bodies & to untie all the knots in our backs. First they give you a regular massage, lather you with oil + massage, then apply hot stones. I remember saying "WOW" in my head once those hot stones touched my back because it's something I never knew I needed in my life. My masseuse, Mona, also put me in different yoga like positions that I didn't even know my body had the ability to do but felt amazing. Our only negative comments/suggestion is to maybe keep the room a little warmer because the towels did feel a little cold in the end & a warmer room would just add to the relaxing feeling. We also didn't get our tea so maybe that's given upon request? All in all, get your massage with either Mona or Lynne & trust that you'll be sleeping like a baby later on that night!

Good deal on yelp too! Don't know why there are bad stars, but my massage was amazing. My therapist's name was May/Mai (not sure of the spelling). She has been by far the best massage therapist I've had in my entire life. You know how some paces are good but not amazing, and you feel like you get shorted when you leave? Not with her. She kept her pressure and worked on all my knots. It was so good that I was thinking maybe I'll get a massage from her every week while I was laying there . Granted the place is straightforward, no frou frou scented aromatherapy oils and stuff, she did use some hot stones. I think I found my go-to place for massages!

I called ahead for a 3pm deep tissue massage, but when I arrived, they were busy and asked me to wait 30 minute...This was red flag #1 but i decided to wait in my car outside for 30 minutes. When I finally got in, I had to remind the therapist multiple times that I wanted a deep tissue massage. The pressure was so light it literally felt like a tickle, and I gave up asking for a deeper pressure after asking over, and over, and over... To make matters worse, during the session, the therapist left the room for about 8 minutes to talk to someone, and I could hear her switching between my massage and another customer. I am 99% sure she was working on me and another person at the same time. When I flipped over, I experienced an inappropriate touch. I told her I wasn't comfortable and didn't want that, but instead of finishing the session as paid, she left the room again, came back quickly wiped me down and ended the massage early. I tipped $15, and when I did, I overheard her yelling at another employe through the hallway. I felt like she was upset and calling a guy over to demand more money, so i rushed out of the place without my socks on. This experience was so bad when I got home i did some research and found provocative ads online for this business that don't match the experience. For anyone reading this who is looking for that, be warned the staff looks absolutely nothing like the pictures i saw on some of these ads they have online - I will not be returning and do not recommend this place to anyone

With the same service & enjoyment, I had it once in Santa Monica, it cost almost $120 for the full body massage, but this place is way cheaper than I expected. I personally never visit any spa that where messy & smells, but this place is super clean & always have the candle lightning for the full body massage, so that I can relax my self first, before they give me a massage.

This was mostly due to the fact that over the course of an hour, only my back, chest, and legs were massaged. My neck was barely touched and my shoulders, arms, and feet weren't touched at all. It felt like the hour went by extremely quick since only part of my body was tended to. It was difficult to relax for me because I kept wondering when she was going to finish doing my back. I guess I could've addressed it at the time, but I've never had to bring it up with any other masseuse. Again, it felt good but just didn't do it for me and I ended up leaving a little disappointed.
