Ricky is amazing! I'll explain how this happened. I train consistently with the 'bells' (kbs,…read morebarbell and dumbbells). One day, I was putting my weights away and I tweaked something in my shoulder blade. I had a nagging pain for about 2 weeks. I was at critical mass - had to do something. This past Friday, I contacted Ricky (solely based upon yelp reviews) in the morning to see if I could schedule a same day appointment. I was able to text him (which was great) because skillful massage therapists are always busy working. So, it can be challenging to get an answer immediately. I understand this dilemma well. Thankfully, Ricky had something at 630pm. I scheduled a 30 mins half table session. Let me tell you, in less than 2 minutes, he found the spot that was aggravated - I immediately asked for an hour. He obliged as he didn't have an appointment right after me. Thank goodness!!! He did a deep tissue massage and my muscles were sore thereafter. However, it was definitely what I needed - skilled and focused attention. I will definitely return over and over again! Again, I train hard and work full-time. So, being able to have someone work on my issues is fantastic!

I opted to give the tip at the end. 2) upon entering my room, the sheets were damp so I felt a bit cold. If anything the sheets to lay in and drape over you should've been dry. Freshly warmed sheets and a heated table are even better. 3) the lady sneezed a few times in the room and even though my eyes were closed I don't think she sanitized her hands. Thankfully at this point, the drape was on me so she didn't touch my skin after sneezing. 4) although I walked out relaxed and the massage therapist got some knots out, about an hour later, my upper back felt a new kind of pain and feels out of adjustment. She adjusted me towards the end and I didn't expect that. I don't think they're supposed to do that. She was nice and the hot stones were great but the few details such as damp sheets, sneezing without disinfecting your hands.

I looked around and I wanted to have a legitimate massage and I found this angel spa, which is near me and I thought I would give it a try. I met the masseuse Jenny and she's very very nice. What I liked about her is that she was talkative. She asked me what was wrong and where and she addressed those issues. She worked on my back and she used the right amount of pressure and I was very happy It's clean it's orderly. There's very easy parking and I will go back again. I was happy to have a real massage from a very nice person and it's very reasonably priced. I'm older and she was very respectful because I do have some mobility issues and she gave me some suggestions and I'll do the stretching and I will do the positive thoughts and the meditation that she suggested. So I will be back and hopefully I get to meet with her again. I think there's other masseuses that work there I've never met them, but I've read good thoughts on the reviews

It's dated, dim, in a less-than-glamorous strip mall, and it can get ridiculously loud when staff answer the phone or greet walk-ins while they're working on you. Inconvenient, yes but I can look past that. So why do I keep coming back when I've had some of the best massages elsewhere? Because this is the only place that gets my plantar fasciitis to shut TF up. Specifically -- the owner (or at least I think he is). He's the one who usually greets you at the door and works the front desk. I come back because of him. When I ask for hard pressure, he goes HARD -- like clench-your-glutes hard -- and he keeps the pressure consistent the whole time. He gets deep into the bound fascia in a way that very few people ever do, fancy spa or not. So yes, I'll keep coming back whenever my feet are screaming for help. I pop in my AirPods, bring a little patience and flexibility, and let him work his magic.

Let me start by saying... I am not a massage therapist's favorite client. My body is basically made…read moreof rocks, boulders, and steel -- especially in my neck, shoulders, and upper back. So when Coco started my 2-hour session and asked what kind of pressure I wanted, I said: extra hard, please. And she did not hesitate. The first hour honestly felt like a full-on wrestling match (in the best way). Elbows working overtime, digging into every knot and layer of tension I've been carrying around. She may be small-framed, but the strength and control? Next level. I know some people feel a certain way about these Asian reflexology-style spots, but I don't discriminate -- because every once in a while, you find a someone who truly delivers. Coco is that person. After she worked on one side of my back, I had to stop and ask for her name so I could make sure I request her again. What stood out most was her understanding of leverage, pressure, and muscle release. She knew exactly how to find the hidden tension points and work through them. And when she hit areas that were especially tender, she adjusted -- shifting to slower, more controlled movements. At times, her rhythm even synced with my breathing, which helped the muscles release even more. That level of awareness? Rare. This is not a gentle, fall-asleep kind of massage -- and that's exactly what I want. I go for real work, to break through tightness and pain, and Coco delivered. If you're looking for a deep, no-nonsense massage that gets into those stubborn knots, Coco is your person. Yes, it's not for everyone -- and that's okay. But for me? I'll absolutely be back to see Coco.

I give this review with a heavy heart. I'm the type that wants local businesses to succeed…read more E Massage Therapy used to be owned by Eva, who definitely put the customer first and cared about everyone who walked through those doors. When she passed a couple of years ago her daughters took over and I'm sure they never had the passion for the business as their mom. Evidently recently there's been a change in ownership. All gift certificates previously bought are no longer being honored. I tried to explain that when they acquired the business they also took on the previous debts ( the already paid for massages via gift certificates). They say they will only honor them if Alia ( Eva's daughter) tells them to, but after my son tried to contact her to no avail and then I tried she finally got back and said the new ownership is not accepting them. So basically she threw the ball back in their court after they threw it in hers. Doesn't matter who's court the ball is now in, I've left the arena and will never come back. And I suggest any of you to look elsewhere for a massage but if you do feel the need to go there do not under any circumstance buy a gift card because who knows how long this business that's unwilling to work something out with a loyal customer will last. Over the years I've purchased no less than forty or more certificates and had countless massages myself. No more. Ever again!!

The 90-minute massage was honestly 10/10 relaxing, professional, and exactly what we needed. The only thing that rubbed me the wrong way was the tipping conversation at the front desk afterward.

I don't mind tipping for good service, but I do think expectations like that should be clearly communicated on the website or during booking so customers aren't caught off guard at checkout. Other than that, the massage itself was excellent.
