HEATED BAMBOO THAI MASSAGE (5 stars + meteor shower + star…read morelinks) This is one of the best Thai Massages I've had in San Diego! Hurt so good, went home so relaxed and limber. :: BOOK :: I am no stranger to Thai Massages! Do not mistake my small figure as fragile - I have a high tolerance for what is to come. I booked in advance a Bamboo Thai Massage because I never had a massage with Bamboo and needed to try it. I followed the owner from a previous place but upon booking she was not available the day I was coming and picked Nita for a 75m session. I read each of their backgrounds and had a hard time selecting because they all sounded amazing but went with Nita because her profile showed 15+ years of experience. :: EXPERIENCE :: Upon arrival, several of the women treated me (they were so genuine and kind). The place is clean and legit. I was escorted to the room and Just like any other Thai Massage, you take off all our clothes except for your panties (or underwear) and lay on the massage bed with a light bedsheet over you. The room looked like a typical Thai Massage room. I had alot of tightness, knots, and soreness on my back muscles and needed strong presser for this session. Nita had the hands and strength for that. I love pressure and can tolerate it - most times I have to tell someone to apply more. Nita applied perfect strong pressure I was looking for. She even kept checking on me to see if I was okay of it was too much - yah my ooh's and ahh's were not silent! I was 100% okay thru the session. it hurt SO good! She did a phenomenal job giving me a good Thai massage and even noticed the tightness and knots. She focused on all the right places with the right amount of pressure. Heated Bamboo. The temperature is similar to hot stones but since it's wood the heat isn't kept and the rotation of bamboos to reheat was needed. However, I did enjoy the bamboos, the shape gets in narrow or curved areas better than heated stones. The session was not entirely heated bamboo, it was mostly a Thai massage and then a session with the heated bamboos. I lost track of time - this massage was fantastic. Nita even massaged a little extra out of kindness which really made my day. Everything felt so good - HIGHLY RECOMMEND I now know not to wait too long for a massage and to treat myself to this place much more often. Love this place! Until the next massage....

I really think this is the best massage I've ever had. I've had the Thai combination massage twice,…read moreand both visits were exceptional! I came in with very tight muscles and lots of tension, but afterward I felt like a bowl of jelly (in a really good way). I prefer a strong, deep tissue massage that will be effective in relieving muscle tension. I especially enjoyed my 2-hour massage with Jane, the owner. I really liked her technique, and she was able to identify and target my knots. Her pressure was spot-on using a combination of hands, knuckles, elbows, and walking on my back. During my session, she suggested that I try cupping and the bamboo massage, and I'm glad I agreed. She implemented the cupping and bamboo into my session, and I think this really helped loosen my muscles as well. I can tell that Jane really cares about her customers, and wants to help them feel better by providing a great experience. The location has plenty of easy parking, and the inside is clean and quiet. Massage beds are large, heated, and comfortable. They offer early bird discounts if you book early on a weekday, and also have a military discount. Even without the discount, pricing is very reasonable for the exceptional service. It makes it tempting to come in often for a massage! I think I'll definitely become a regular customer here.

Do not get your prenatal massage here, so not worth it! And you don't find out how not worth it it…read moreis until you see your massage therapist. Price point was wildly unreasonable, but I was desperate to feel some relief. I scheduled a prenatal massage with an add-on. When I arrived, the massage therapist told me all the areas she could NOT work on, I wasn't eligible for any of the add-ons, and I could only get light pressure. If anyone I spoke with while scheduling this appt, or even if the prenatal massage description online included any of this, I would definitely NOT have made an appt here. On top of this, I had prepaid for the massage and an add-on, so the add-on went to waste.

Here you lie down on a massage table and they wash your hair and give you a scalp massage with some face and neck for about 45 min. They shampoo and condition you twice, then dry and comb your hair. The best part is that they then remove the hair wash sink and you flip over for a full back and shoulder massage for the last 15 min. I think this is better than the typical $100+ head spa service. The comb, hair dryer, table and sink were all very clean and I left feeling super relaxed. There's also an option to do a 30 min foot massage along with this head spa service which I thought was cool. I will be back!
