Their certified bodyworkers charge the same rates as register massage therapist - $150 for 75 mins, $125 for 60 min massage. Normally certified bodyworkers at other establishments charge $80-$100 an hour. Example: Barefoot Oasis Spa 1 block away only charges $80 an hour. So while they are clean and professional, my qualm is that they are way over priced for bodywork service they provide. Tip: Make sure you shop around on price and quality.

This is magnificent place for massage, quiet, peaceful, very friendly and accommodating, and all therapists assure you are comfortable with the pressure.

I've been going to this gastown location for almost 2 years now, and while the staff or set up may…read morechange, I've always had the most relaxing time here. During my first visit, I had the entirety of my experience explained before I went into the tank. Now that I've floated a few times, the staff is quick to just let me in and float however I want, but for those that are a little unsure what to expect, it really helps to ask for suggestions. Whoever is at the front desk is always willing to help out with music suggestions or tips on relaxing in the tank, and there's never any pressure to stay after the float or to leave right away - I've run out when I have somewhere to be, but if you want to have a cup of tea and sit afterwards, there is a great lounge to do so. This location is also great about renewing expired floats! I have a terrible memory when it comes to using 3-pack seasonal sale floats and etc. and they've always been really nice about letting me extend them past the original expiry date.

I visited this clinic on May 6, 2025, for cupping therapy--my third time receiving this treatment…read morehere. After the session, the practitioner mentioned I had "a few blisters" and applied some ointment. Since the cupping was done on my back, I couldn't see the area myself and trusted their assessment. However, once I got home and checked, I was shocked to find that nearly every cupping mark was filled with blisters--far more than "a few." Sleeping that night was very uncomfortable, and the affected areas grew painful over time. What concerns me most is the way this was handled. Before leaving, I was asked to sign a waiver. In hindsight, it felt like the practitioner was aware of the extent of the reaction and had me sign paperwork before I realized what had happened. I understand that blistering can occasionally occur with cupping, but the lack of transparency and aftercare, along with how the situation was managed, left me very disappointed. I hope this helps others make an informed decision.

The therapist was skilled and able to find the tension located in my problem areas, that required immediate attention. I feel decompressed.

You'll have to follow Covid Protocol which ensures the safety of yourself and the practitioner. I absolutely love the Gastown studio, very bright with and modern in a historic building gives it some charm. I'll definitely book again with Brenley. The parking has spots across the street and will run you about 5$ for an hour and half. Lots of little lunch and coffee spots close by to grab some nosh after your treatment!
