    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.

    How do we know which is the best massage that we need? Because Im not familiar on the Thai, Swedish etc. When I go to massage place none of them ask for that. Can you help me pick. Thanks

    Gazelle, I suggest that you go to our website where we describe the different massages. Our website address is: www.elegance-spa.com… 

    What are the prices for all your massages?

    You can see the pricing, and all kinds of other information on our website: https://elegance-spa.com

    Do you have man on man massage if so how can I get that appointment ? Should I call you and ask that while getting the appointment or should I get the appointment and ask that in the office?

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

    Do your massage therapists wear masks? Thanks!

    Yes, they do!

    What would you recommend to someone that does not like deep massages and would prefer a massage to relax? I just don't like when it hurts.

    Cristy, we are very happy to do a very soft and gentle massage if that’s what you prefer. Just be sure you communicate your desire to our on duty manager and your therapist. Elaine, Owner

    April returned to China, and as far as we know, she won’t be coming back. However, we have many other outstanding massage therapists.

They have water bottles and hot tea for you while you wait or for after your session. I checked in at the front and was immediately taken back to a massage room. The room is very nice and clean with relaxing music playing in the background as well as nature sounds of water. The lights are dim to your level of comfort. You can remove as much or as little clothing as you like. I laid down on the comfortable table and waited for my masseuse. You can choose a male or female masseuse when you make your appointment. Laura came in and described what she was going to do. She asked if I had any areas on my body that were bothering me. I let her know my low back is an ongoing issue. I really appreciated that she asked me that and how much pressure I would like for the massage. I have to say, this was one of the best massages I have ever had. She did a combo of deep tissue and Swedish massage all over my body and also focused more on my low back. The hot stones felt really good and the heat level was just right. It was so relaxing and therapeutic. I really liked my experience with Laura. She helped my back feel better which is a miracle. I will definitely be coming back here again for more services. The staff here are all very friendly and make you feel comfortable and welcomed. I highly recommend coming here.

Parking is fine with three spots in front of the business and more areas to park on the sides. It did not seem like a busy area and parking does not seem to be an issue here. Amanda asked me if there were any areas she should focus on and also let me know I could let her know if I needed her to adjust the pressure. I've been getting massages in the San Jose area for years and Amanda is the first masseuse to ever ask me those questions. They also did a layer of heated towels between the sheet and the blanket that was magical and again, not something we've had done in other massage locations. The room was calming with low, warm lighting while we undressed. It was mostly shut off during our massage. The music was also playing low. Very easy to let yourself relax here. The lobby and overall space is well curated. The lobby has a coffee and tea bar that also has water post massage. 100/10 be sure to call and make an appt for you're girl!Can't wait to be back!

I enjoyed the choice of calming tones and left very relaxed and no longer tense. I also like that their sheets do not carry scents and the massage table was comfortable.

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

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!

Prior to seeing Lucy to deal with my shoulder issues, I've had hundreds of massages around the world--Bernardus Lodge in Carmel Valley, The Ritz Carlton at Half Moon Bay, 10,000 Waves in New Mexico, etc. Hands down, the technique, pressure, and precision of massage therapy at Luxe Spa is second to none--even though the humble establishment is discreetly posited in small market parking lot. Lucy and her therapists know exactly the spots to rub and push out and they use a variety of sophisticated techniques--even "walking" on the back use toes like fingers to press out spots of tension. Truth be told, it is a newer business and things don't go perfect every time, but Lucy is very gracious and professional if there's ever a schedule mix-up or if a therapist used happens to fall below expectations (rare), Lucy always goes out of her way to make it right. I can't emphasize enough how 'renewed' I feel every session--and I've had over 30 for this year. WORTH. EVERY. PENNY. Go there!

    Unprofessional and Disrespectful Experience from Start to Finish…read more My friend purchased a Groupon deal for a therapeutic massage for my birthday, and I was really looking forward to it. I haven't had a massage since I gave birth, and given how stressful things have been, I was excited to finally relax. Unfortunately, the experience was frustrating from the very beginning. The woman at the front desk initially did not want to accept our vouchers. She called the manager, who then told us to cancel our Groupon vouchers and pay them directly instead. This was extremely inconvenient, especially since there is no guarantee that Groupon refunds go through right away and can take 3-5 business days to process. We declined, but they continued to push us to pay upfront even though we already had valid, prepaid vouchers ready to use. It wasn't until I said, "Are you saying we can't be seen today? Because we are not going to cancel our vouchers," that they finally agreed to take us back. During the massage, the two masseuses kept talking to each other and laughing. Instead of being in a calm, relaxing environment with peaceful music, it felt distracting and uncomfortable. The constant talking and laughter made me feel uneasy, and at times it even felt like we were being talked about. The situation got worse at checkout. We both left a tip, and when they asked how much we would be tipping, one of the masseuses said in her language to the other, "She's only tipping ____," and they both laughed. Then the other masseuse responded, "How about ____?" This felt extremely inappropriate and unprofessional. Tipping should be based on the customer's discretion, not something that is commented on or suggested in that way. Overall, this experience was far from relaxing and left me feeling uncomfortable and disrespected. I will NOT be returning.
