    Hong L.

    Love this place! I did a couple's massage with my husband and we initially did 30 minutes to "give this place a try." The massage therapists must've known how much we enjoyed it because after 30 minutes, they asked if we wanted to continue. We didn't even need to think about it-- it was a hell yes lol. We both had such a hard time getting up from the massage bed because we just wanted to stay there, but we left very relaxed. I got Amber and she was great! I like her technique and I didn't really experience pain or discomfort when she got my knots out. I actually enjoyed my massage with Amber so much, I came back a second time a few days later. My husband got Angela and said he knew it was going to be a great massage as soon as she stepped on his back and cracked it, haha. Overall, we are very happy and have already told all our friends about this place.

    Reasonable price. Good massage. You'll usually get an appointment the same day. It's a traditional massage place. Not too fancy.

    I am very sorry, but we do not have any male certified massage therapists.

    Do your massage therapists wear masks? Thanks!

    Yes, they do!

I booked an appointment in the morning, and left refreshed. Iveta is such a great esthetician. She offers a customized facial based on your skin concerns, and the time she spends interviewing you and asking questions doesn't factor into the time spent on your facial! You can tell that she really cares about her craft. She discusses the ingredients in each of her products and what they aim to do. Her hands are so gentle as she works the product into your skin, she asks you about your skin concerns and also observes them herself. She always makes sure you're comfortable and her bed is heated and in an ergonomic shape for massages too!!! I left very refreshed and rejuvenated. I will be returning to book the combination full body massage and facial when possible.

I've also gotten a facial by Iveta and that was super relaxing as well. Iveta is awesome at what she does and is super mindful where she'll ask if there's any specific area I'm struggling with. There was one instance where I really needed a massage but there was no availability on her calendar so I called her and she was kind enough to fit me in! I will always come back and support her because of her amazing services!

However, each time I've come in, the noise level, especially from the outdoor area has been extremely loud and disruptive. It would really help if doors were kept closed during sessions and if noise was minimized overall. Customers are walking in and out of that common area, so that door should remain closed at all times to avoid noise entering other people's sessons. I've heard loud conversations that felt like people were shouting across the space, cabinets slamming, and even staff walking around on speakerphone speaking loudly. While I was able to somewhat tune it out during previous visits, I recently brought a friend, and he was very unhappy with how noisy it was. People come in expecting a relaxing, and peaceful environment as that's the whole point of getting a massage. Unfortunately, the constant noise made it difficult to fully relax and took away from the overall experience. I hope improvements can be made to keep noise levels down, because a quiet atmosphere truly makes all the difference

    IMPORTANT: Martha deals with deep tissue and sciatic issues! And thank God!…read more I came here on emergency with my bestie. Martha gave us same-day appointments. (Of course, this isn't a guarantee that you can always get same-day appointments, but I'm so grateful Martha was able to that day.) The place is small but adorable, and the massage rooms are so cozy and soothing. But the thing I absolutely adored the most about Martha was that she is willing and QUICK to listen to her clients, whether it be their concerns or requests. I told her something was too painful (just due to my sciatic muscle issues of at least six months) and she immediately took a break from the area to focus on something else. She listened to me throughout the whole thing and made sure to consult me about my history and how something felt or if her massage technique was doing what it should. I also have bacne and had leg stubble that I was fairly insecure of--Martha did not care. She worked through them both as if they were not there. I'll have to come back because the muscles are still messed up but it hurt too much to keep going--mind you, though, that's to be expected after being messed up for so long, and I was 50% looser walking out of the place. Bestie said he absolutely enjoyed his massage. While some parts were painful, it turned out it was the only way to get his own relief; now those areas are no longer tight or bothering him! Glad to have found you, Martha. :)

I didn't have any of the post massage body pains with Cheryl. What ever her trick is, I need to be back for more since I feel so much better. My 90 minutes went by fast and I wished that I had booked 2 hours. Yep, she's that good! This isn't a fancy shmancy spa. It's clean, relaxed atmosphere and the rooms are calming. The prices are reasonable and Cheryl is a magician with her hands. Looking forward to next time! Highly recommend Cheryl. She's kind and knows her craft.

Although these chair messages aren't advertised as deep tissue which confused me a bit. In any case, after about 20 minutes, he not only starts digging in more aggressively but is basically pounding me with his elbow and jabbing the back of my neck. I begin to feel a burn right below my shoulder and I start thinking maybe some hairs are getting rubbed out which can cause pinching sensations, mind you I don't have a very hairy back at all as you can see in the photos. I ask him to take it easy, frustrated with his overly aggressive methods. He begins to apply whatever cream they use and it stung like hell on both sides of my back. I told him to stop and take a photo of the area as it felt like my skin was being ripped off. He insisted it was hair being pulled. The photos only showed red irritated skin which is to be considered during messages but I knew something was off. I told him the session is over and that he is far too aggressive. Since I couldn't see any blood, I could only assume it may have been ripped out hair so I did pay for the time but told him I absolutely will not tip him. Once I get home, I take a shower and the warm water is burning my skin, at this point, it hurts to even lift my arm or bend over since it stretches the skin. I could barely sleep that night and sure enough, this morning, you can see skin literally broke and peeled away on both sides of my back. This guy assaulted me and needs to be removed from the profession!
