Damned be the days that I didn't know about Chinese reflexology massages. I used to try to book with conventional massages but had many struggles. Mostly their hours are narrow. Many masseuers that I contacted had appointments from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and I work. Saturday appointments were hard to get and often got canceled. Actually the cancellations were what drove me away. I have had massages at some of the franchise joints down the hill and have been very disappointed. The one that stands out was more like a fondling my skin rather than making any headway on knots in my muscles. It was expensive and it took a lot of time to fill out all of the contracts and medical info. Then one day I found myself in Crystal and was quite surprised that they don't care about my name. Don't make me write anything down. Take me to the back, soak my feet and give me whatever intensity of massage I ask for. Today they asked if I wanted soft or hard and I said hard- I meant it- so did they. While I never felt like my life was on the line, there were times when I was convinced I was losing a wrestling match. They did get every knot addressed and my super tight neck and shoulders finally have some relief. I definitely got my money's worth. I highly recommend. However, if you do not want a full intensity massage, do not say that you want your massage hard. read more

Inconsistent experience. The person I came with received a proper therapeutic massage with great technique and pressure, while mine felt like inconsistent light rubbing with little actual massage technique involved. Even after politely requesting adjustments multiple times, nothing changed. Unfortunately, this has happened more than once, so the inconsistency between therapists is difficult to overlook. read more

The massage and reflexology appointment we had was amazing! A group of nine of us were there for a girls weekend and we stopped in and each one after said it was probably one of the best massages/reflexology we've had. Not a traditional Swedish massage or reflexology, but still amazing, so relaxing, friendly and for the price point, divine! Would definitely return if ever in the area! read more

Crystal Massage - Reflexology Near Me - Grass Valley, California

Opted for 90 min and entered a state of total relaxation. The woman who gave me a massage had a very sweet energy and knew how to get into my knots and smoothe them out. Highly recommend. read more

Samur gave me a great 30 min back and 30 min foot massage. She was very present, strong with pressure the way I like, and didn't chat with other people while massaging etc which is common in some reflexology massage places. This was in shared space with another client getting a massage at the same time so remember if you go to wear loose pants, easy to remove top. Back massage requires you to take your shirt off and she snaps a towel over you so you can semi disrobe in private. If that bothers you, book a full body and have your own room. read more

I'm pretty experienced getting body massages. All over the world actually. And I highly recommend crystal. I don't live in grass valley full time so when I visit I make sure I see Jack at Crystal Massage as often as possible. Jack's like a Buddhist monk. Calm. Intuitive. Beautiful touch. read more

This place is awesome. We have been looking for a replacement for our old massage place, and we really enjoy coming to Crystal Massage. The massage technique is excellent, and my wife and I come out feeling brand new. It is our new massage place of choice and we will be coming back regularly. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Prices are fair and again fantastic massage. read more

I recommend Crystal Massage to all my friends. I refuse to go anywhere else! I've had great experiences with Lili. I love Lili's technique and splurged on 120 minutes (worth it). I know it's a job well done when I catch myself dozing off. Thank you Lili and Crystal Massage. read more

This place is great- clean, efficient and the massage was great! It is possible to get a same day appointment as well. I opted for a 90 minute massage and it was definitely value for money. read more

Excellent massage, welcoming atmosphere, Great price and convenient location . Friendly staff. read more

I feel cheated. Today's massage was horrible, like real bad sex. The guy basically put lotion on me, he needs more training. They didn't understand what ticklish meant. Most masseuse's know how to handle my ticklish feet. I was stressed most of the time. I don't want the guy fired, but TRAIN HIM BETTER! I had asked for David, but when I got there he wasn't avaliable? Not going to let that happen again! Going back to spring massage. read more

Amazing!!!! I came into today for the first time to checkout some of their pricing & I was able to get a 20 minute chair massage right on the spot. Even with just the chair massage my back & neck feel 100% better. The staff were super friendly & the quality of the service was fantastic. I will be coming back for all of my future massage needs. read more

Second time I've been to this spot. The first time it was excellent. The Second time it had really gone down hill. The massages were beyond basic. Zero pressure. And, to top it off after getting the massage I offered a 20% tip and they rejected it wanting more. I paid the $20 tip for the terrible massage and I will never ever go back. Lesson learned. read more

Every town and city should have a Crystal Massage. Sure I love going to my regular therapist for deep tissue etc but massage doesn't always need to be so "fancy". The body heals itself, it just needs a little nudge in the direction of relaxation. Crystal Massages nails it every time. They are polite, professional, efficient, and affordable and full of talented bodyworkers. I don't live in Grass Valley anymore but I always go for a massage when I'm in town. Thank you Crystal Massage!!! read more

Excellent Chinese style massage. We both got the 60 minute cloths on foot massage and fell asleep which was perfect. English is limited but once you've had a Chinese style massage once or twice you will understand the routine. We will return. Why not 5 stars? Because it's hard to compare to a traditional western massage with the ambience, custom for you, and English speaking. However at a fraction of the price we prefer to get a Chinese style massage and do it more frequently. read more

Best Asian massage I have maybe ever had. Very clean, quiet, and the masseurs skills were amazing!! She worked out knots that were probably 3 years old. It was painful but needed. I will be back again and hopefully often. read more

This is my go to massage place. Personally I have been a massage therapist for 23 years. I have significant brain damage and feel pretty terrible in my body 24/7 due to raging nerves. Whenever I have an outcall massage to give in the area I stop in to get a session at Crystal Massage. I get a different therapist every time. They have all been excellent. With low walls it's not very private, which in Asian massage is a good thing. You wont have to negotiate yourself out of a "happy ending." It's therapeutic massage and good therapeutic at that. Also remember to tip well the economy of Asian massage studios requires this. read more

Amazing deep tissue massage for a great price. I've had a lot of issues after multiple spinal and shoulder surgeries following an accident. I am so glad I tried Crystal Massage. read more

I have had massage by David for 4 years. I come once a week for 75 mins combo massage. David is the best massage therapist in our area. He is firm, steady and works with deep tissue. I also worked with his other employees, all excellent! The rate is very reasonable. The studio is clean and tranquil with traditional Chinese music, a beautiful space for relax and rejuvenation. I highly recommend this place! Charlotte read more

I've been here several times, they never disappoint! Great deep tissue technique, the 2 hour foot and body combo is awesome! I've had a few different massage therapists here, they've all been very good. English is limited, but they're patient and friendly so we can always figure it out, and the price is fantastic. Clean place, very professional and legitimate, no shady business which is nice! Even the oils are scent free which is a bonus for me. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem to anyone, and I'll remain a regular myself. read more

These guys are great! I've had many massages, more recently at Massage Envy, and these guys know what they're doing. Great firmness! At times, I was thinking the intensity would be too much, but I just let it ride. It was worth it! Felt completely relaxed at the end. My back felt brand new! read more

I love going to Crystal massage. The Staff is friendly. super clean. Relaxing and quiet. I highly recommend it. My whole entire family has Gotten a massage. read more

This place is absolutely incredible! My husband and I were able to book same day/same time massages and had the best experience. We were even able to tune out an obnoxious Karen who was loudly ridiculing the staff due to the amazing professionalism of our masseurs. 10/10 will be back! read more

Wow! This place was great. Kinda awkward with a huge room with partitions but you can get over that. Their English is very limited as others have stated but it's all good. The massage itself was great. I went through stages of feeling like I was being punished to pure bliss. The guy who was working on me was very good. Worked out a lot more tense spots in my back then I thought I had. Prices were great. We will go back the next time we are in town! read more

Is it supposed to hurt? This guy was digging and I mean DIGGING his forearms and elbows into my entire back and now I feel sore, I'm worried if I look in the mirror I will see bruises. Too rough, I asked a couple times to please not be too hard but it was just pain, I nearly was brought to tears when he was digging his elbow into my shoulders... I was hoping to have a relaxing massage before my log drive accross the states and I got the most excruciating 30 minute massage I have ever had. It seemed extremely rushed as well, there was not much time to just relax, I could barely catch my breath with the movements and before i could finish taking in a breath, my back was pressed hard and it was hard to breathe. I would ask for my $30 back but honestly I don't want to bother... read more

I love this place because it is clean, no nonsense, affordable and the massages given are very effective. David is an amazing masseuse there and he never disappoints. Very consistent. The foot massage is a type of whole body massage. Tip well! The staff works really hard. I have migraines which affect my shoulders and neck. David's massages give me instant relief and they also help prevent my headache cycle. I am forever grateful for this. This is not a massage experience with aromatherapy or fountain sounds, etc. It is a deep body work. No funny business. You can get an appointment on the same day you need a massage, sometimes within an hour. Crystal massage is very assessable as they are open 7 days a week from 10 am to 9 pm, and are located near CVS in the Brunswick basin. read more

I have been coming here for years and highly recommend the knowledge and work of the massage therapists here. David is always so kind and considerate. The office itself is clean and quiet. The staff is courteous, respectful, professional and skilled at the art of massage. After over twenty five years of receiving a variety of massages from various therapists, I can wholeheartedly say that this is my regular go to place. read more

Amazing. Im lucky enough to have gotten a lot of foot massage/reflexology over the years, and this was in the top 3 EVER! That's saying a lot because I've gotten at least 40 over the past 10 years or so in many different places, from the bay to la to the east coast. One thing that was unique to this location was the Velcro towel they provided so you can remove your bra for the massage. Much appreciated because it allows the masseuse to have more fluid moves and you can relax even more. Also, it was great pressure, great technique, very clean and relaxing. You need to start coming here twice a month if you live in the area, you owe it to yourself. If you've never gotten one, just stop reading this review and get over there asap! And just so you know, if you're new to this whole "foot massage" thing- you're signing up for a full body massage. The "foot massage" just focuses on the feet more (about 20 mins out of the 60) while the body only doesn't focus on feel at all. I like the foot massage, my husband usually does body. You really can't go wrong either way, it just depends on what you prefer and what your body needs. Enjoy your massage and congrats on getting to enjoy such an amazing experience! read more

Crystal massage is the best! If you love deep tissue and reflexology, there is no better place! My boyfriend and I are regulars here. I usually request david, cindy is also amazing! Everyone is excellent, we've never not had a great massage! There are individual rooms for your party for more privacy and the prices cant be beat for the service they provide! Always best to make an appoinment, bc it gets really busy especially towards the evening. You ll definitely leave with a happy pocket and a happy body when u choose crystal! read more

This is a great little place to get a massage. They are friendly and very professional. I received a full body massage that was very thorough and professional. There was soothing music and the lights were dimmed just right, creating the perfect ambience. Everything was on point. I will definitely be going back! read more

I have been going for massage to Crystal Massage for four years. It is the most respectful. professional and clean massage business. Every service provider is exceptional. The owners are wonderful and warm people. It is a slice of heaven . I recommend the 1 hr. Foot Massage for 40.00. The best deal in town. I always tip well. They deserve it. I go every 2-3 weeks. I always feel better. Always! Do not miss this local gift! Victoria Manning read more

First time to have a massage here. The best massage in years! I will be going back. I like deep tissue massage very very good. I am so relaxed my back popped on it's own when I got up! NO FUNNY BUSINESS ether! Very PROFESSIONAL. read more

Awesome reflexology! The shop is super clean and well put together. I have gone twice on my own & once with my husband. The therapists that I have gotten each time have been excellent. They really paid attention to my muscles. They also gave extra attention to areas that were really tight and needing to be worked out. I always leave feeling so much better and relaxed. A lot of people feel like the Asian massage places are a bit rough. The pressure they use is harder than just a traditional Swedish massage. The therapist needs you to communicate your pressure needs. read more

Crystal Massage is conveniently located at the Safeway shopping center off Brunswick Rd and Sutton. I had just moved to GV and because of the lifting, twisting, and turning I decided my body needed a good massage. I called and made an appointment (best way to be seen in a timely fashion). I found the facility to be very clean, the massage table comfortable (though I would like the hole for my face to be a little bit bigger when having my back worked on). I opted for the man to work on me and he did an excellent job of kneading, pulling, pushing, and applying pressure where needed. I was very surprised when he applied the "hot" stones to my back. Once I got used to the heat it was pleasant. I think I will ask not to have the stones so I can gauge which method works best for me. If you speak Mandarin you will be able to communicate your specific needs or desires. Otherwise, miming really works well. The staff is very friendly and gracious. This adventure was well worth the money and I will return. read more

Good massage. Friendly service. They have a hard time understanding what you tell them though

I've had three incredible massages from Peter! It is the $30 foot massage. The best foot massage I've ever had and I am a massage therapist of 35 years. Also worked very good neck shoulders back arms legs, I don't know how he covered so much territory so well in only an hourI also recommend you call ahead and schedule an appointment. Very happy customer, CATALINA read more

Jenny gave me a fantastic massage today. Totally unexpected. You never know what you will get with a new massage place but they did a great job. Clean, very fairly priced and a talented therapist Thanks Jenny I will be back. read more

Love that I can book at the last minute and get a great massage no matter who is available. They're consistently terrific! Thanks!

If you been to other cheap massage places this is the best around. But that is not saying much. You get what you pay for. Depends on the person giving massage. Sometimes you get a pro and some times a trainee. The foot massage also includes full body. Wear thin leggings so the can massage over pants. Ladies ...they will give you a wrap to put on top. You start off sitting while they massage your shoulders while soaking feet in warm purifying water. Then you lay down facing toward ceiling. They start off on legs and feet. After that they flip you on your stomach and start on your back. I always get the 1.5 hr foot massage. Good luck. read more
