Tl;dr: Good, clean shop for a quality massage at a reasonable price. Not a "spa-like" experience; expect some noise during your massage. Pay for the massage first; tip after.
Full review:
Lured by the grand opening special, my daughter and I visited this new massage place for one-hour, deep-tissue massages. To get the special, we had to show the special "flyer." That was easy enough; all I had to do was show the photo from Yelp.
Parking was free and easy in a dedicated lot just south of the building. The shop was nicely decorated, giving an Asian spa vibe. The staff speaks Mandarin Chinese; English fluency varies.
Massage choices included clothing on and clothing off options. We opted for clothing on, with 30 minutes of foot massage and 30 minutes of deep-tissue body massage. We paid an extra $10 each on top of the grand opening special to get the deep-tissue option. After our massages, we were given small bottles of water, an option for some candies, gift certificates (another grand opening bonus), and a punch card.
Physical massage: 5/5 stars. The massage itself was pretty good. My masseuse had strong hands and good technique.
Ambiance: 3/5 stars. The ambiance during the massage was not as peaceful as it otherwise could have been. The staff did some chatting, there was a lot of phone ringing, and my masseuse took a phone call while giving my massage. I could tell she was minimizing what needed to be said on her end of the conversation, but it was distracting nonetheless.
Pricing: 5/5 stars. The grand opening special is 10/5 stars for pricing, but even the regular prices look like a bargain for a quality massage. Be sure to tip generously, as these are quite low prices in comparison to other local options.
Overall, I give this new massage shop 4.5 out of 5 stars. The chatting and phone ringing mean that this is not a "spa" experience by any means. But if what you need is to address sore or aching muscles, this place has you covered. read more
