First time here. Booked easily for noon on a Saturday for 90 minutes. I don't know the name of my massage therapist but she worked nonstop for 90 minutes and never let up. She was sensitive when she needed to be and rough and tough as nails when she needed to be and I appreciate that. She found the knots and addressed them painfully but skillfully. Combo Thai and Swedish. Deep pressure and stretching. The price board said 90 minutes would be $100 but my gal said $115 at the end. I paid $140 (that's including tip) and that's about $10 more than I was expecting to pay but she earned it. Facility was inviting and friendly. Easy parking. read more

Very disrespectful experience. The rule about not using phones was never clearly communicated to us in advance. No one explained it or told us professionally before the service started. When I said the pressure was too strong, the staff member blamed me and said it was because I was on my phone, which made no sense and felt very unprofessional. She just left suddenly during the massage. What bothered me the most was her behavior afterward. She raised her voice in the hallway, kept pointing at me in a very disrespectful way, and made the whole situation uncomfortable. When I asked her to stop pointing at me, instead of handling it professionally, multiple staff members came over and forced me to leave. This was one of the most disrespectful services I've ever experienced. I would not recommend this place. read more

First time at Iyara Thai bodywork, I booked 60 minutes massage. Alice was massage therapist. She is super sweet and and professional. I personally like gentle and relaxing massage so I let her know not going too hard on me. Since I'm petite I don't like having her foot massaging me.I requested hand only, pls! The massage she delivered was so on point I just love it. She is such a good listener and paying attention with all the details. I felt so relaxed and refreshed. So happy to have her as my massage therapist. Have to go back and book with her again. Thank you, Alice! You're amazing:) read more

I booked a combination massage, but the pressure was too light, so I asked to switch to deep tissue. The therapist then told me, in a hushed, almost secretive way, "I'll make it deep tissue, don't worry," which made me feel a bit uneasy. However, I decided to go along with it. Unfortunately, the massage itself was not good. None of the pressure points were properly addressed, and the entire session felt uncomfortable rather than relaxing. I honestly just wanted a good, enjoyable massage regardless of the type, but that was not the case at all. I regularly get massages 1-2 times a week, so I'm familiar with different techniques. When a massage doesn't work well for my body, I often ask for stepping, which alone can be enough to make me feel satisfied. However, when I requested this, it was refused. Instead, I was told that my body wouldn't improve that way and that I need to get massages more often, which I found uncomfortable. Overall, I left feeling not only unsatisfied with the service, but also uncomfortable with how I was spoken to. I hope there can be improvements in both technique and communication. read more

When my sissy wanted to treat me to a much needed massage day, we Yelp'd this place and boyyy lemme tell ya that my body never hurt so good. For only $69/hr for a combo massage sesh..not bad at all ~ I chose to do the traditional Thai and Swedish massage. I asked for a mild/medium pressured massage. Sooo worth it!!! Angelina was my masseuse and she was a perfect at working out my knots & kinks. Not gonna lie, there were some points of the massage where I was in pain from her strong hands, but no pain no gain sometimes people. It hurt so good in the end because I truly felt the pressure lifted from my focus areas: lower back and neck. We requested to be in a couples room, so my sis and I were side by side, sharing in the experience. The ambience was peaceful & inviting. It was dimly lit and soothing & relaxing music played in the background. There was cute Thai decor thruout the place. The establishment was very clean and they give you slippers to wear once you check-in, leaving your shoes in lil cubbies by the front door. They have a bin within your room (on a chair beside to your massage table) to place your personal belongings and clothes in. We actually made a last min rezo and they had availability within the same day, which was cool & convenient. I will definitely come back and get another massage soon. Highly recommend! read more

I highly recommend! Sara was my masseuse and she knew what she was doing and she got all in my neck and back which I desperately needed to get worked on. I immediately felt instant relief after, mind you I was in an immense amount of pain. We did a deep tissue massage and some parts hurt too good (but that's the point of a deep tissue massage-- it's not meant to feel entirely relaxing!) I also loved how they incorporated mobility movements and stretches at the end. It felt so invigorating and nice. Thank you Sara! Will be coming back again. read more

Iyara Thai Bodywork - Clean, serene massage rooms - Massage Near Me - Irvine, California

Don't normally give reviews, but my experience was so wonderful, I felt I must. First time at this shop, my assigned masseuse was Angelina. Angelina was very informative and professional. I have had some issues with a frozen left shoulder and this was my main concern. Angelina spent the time to understand what I was looking for and got to work. By the end of our hour I was feeling great. Will be coming back and asking for Angelina! I gave a five star rating but was limited by only five stars being available . Scott read more

My go-to Thai massage spot was fully booked, so my husband found this place and scheduled a session for me with Angelina. The space was clean and comfortable. While sound does carry a bit in the treatment rooms, they do a good job of keeping it moderately quiet. O. M. G. -- Angelina's hands were incredible! She knew exactly where my knots were and worked on them with precision. I look forward to my next visit with her again! read more

I was going to a different massage place, but I am officially in love with this one!! I've gotten the deep tissue massage a couple of times here. Each time, it is great! I like the option of the heated massage table. The ladies here are serious and talented. Definitely recommend people to try this out to help with soreness or for a relaxing experience! read more

Not concrete massage to pain point. Stretch is not professional. Overall not worth it. Will never come back. read more

I didn't take any photo's unfortunately. It's a small massage place. They give you a really strong massage. I felt it for days. If that's not your thing then don't ask for a Thai massage. I loved it but would go with a lighter massage next time. read more

I've been here a few times and have always left feeling more relaxed and 100% happy with all the services. I'm finally leaving a review because of the extra amazing massage I had by Linda who just joined this location. She was amazing and I have already booked my next appt for next week. On top of the amazing massage I accidentally dropped $40 in the shop and the honest owner/manager called me to let me know so I could come back and pick it up. I will be supporting this small business more often moving forward. Their prices are extremely reasonable, it's clean and inviting, and the hours are very convenient not for during the week and weekends. read more

This is my go-to massage studio! Every masseuse I have seen, has been fantastic, but my go-to girl is Angelina. She has healing hands and can truly work my body to help heal aches and pains. Cannot speak highly enough about her!! This is such a hidden gem in irvine - if you are looking for a wonderful massage, I highly recommend going here! :) read more

Find this in a business area in the same plaza as TP tea. Came for a couples massage and were quickly whisked into our room. The rooms are separated by other a curtain if you choose to be private. My only complaint is that the rooms aren't completely closed off so you can hear someone cough next door. The massage itself was decent. My therapist gave me a combo massage with some light stretching. Best suggestion is to bring cash. You will be paying the therapist separately, I had to venmo one and pay card with another. If you pay with a card, they will charge you 3%. read more

Always love coming here! I did a 90 min massage this time and it was amazing! I think I'll still with two hour cause it's so worth it!! read more

See all

I've never received a thai massage before, but this was my first experience & it was amazing! Vanda did a great job with her deep tissue work & I felt so incredibly relaxed after. I will definitely be returning! read more

OK. NINA changed my life. This was the best massage I have ever had. I've never been stretched and cracked so easily before. She adjusted parts of my body even my chiropractor couldn't in the last 3 years. I love her. I miss her. I'll be seeing her again soon. Great little gem in Irvine with very fair pricing. $69 for that sweet sweet combo wombo massage. Side bar: I realize this review has several innuendos. Try to think wholesome, yelpers. Cheers! read more

I showed up early to my appointment and they were able to put me in as soon as they can. The rooms were clean and the staff was courteous.

Lemme tell you. All aches and pains gone!! Cant remember the name of the therapist but she was good! Was having headaches due to tension and let me tell you all tension gone!! read more

We were able to get a last minute appointment on a Saturday for a couples Thai massage and it was the best last minute decision ever! From the moment we stepped in, we were impressed by the establishment's cleanliness--requiring guests to remove their shoes upon entry. The staff and therapists were very friendly, and I appreciated how my therapist took the time to inquire about any specific areas of focus before beginning. Our massage space was fully enclosed, quiet, and peaceful throughout the session. The Thai massage itself was nothing short of amazing! I found myself able to completely unwind as the therapists employed specific techniques to decompress my muscles. For those unfamiliar, Thai massage stands out from other modalities due to its unique blend of deep tissue pressure, muscle and joint stretching, and gentle manipulation aimed at stimulating organs and enhancing flexibility. Be prepared to experience a thorough stretching if you opt for this massage style. As someone who regularly engages in intense workouts, I often struggle with numbness or tightness in my muscles and joints. However, after my session, I emerged feeling rejuvenated, as though every joint in my body had been revitalized. It was an incredibly relaxing experience that I would highly recommend to anyone in need of physical and mental rejuvenation! Price for a 60 mins Thai massage is $79 before tip. read more

Had an appointment for a 90 minute deep tissue massage with Ms Angeline and it was great. She is warm, very professional, and perceptive with pain points, pressure, and tension. She asked me to return in a week for her to continue treating some neck and back tension after the muscles had time to rest but my travel plans changed! Will definitely be back next time. Your session is in a partitioned space with privacy but you'll be able to hear other people. Just a note if that's important to you - the shop space is very clean and polished and quiet and a great value for the price. read more

Amazing 2 hour combo massage for $140! Deedee was fantastic - she worked out most of the kinks in my neck and I felt sooooo relaxed after my massage. Will definitely be back again! read more

Pad Thai was fabulous! She asked me the areas I wanted her to focus more and she knew exactly were those trigger points where. It was a very therapeutical and relaxing massage and I am extremely grateful for her dedication. I will come back soon :) read more

This place is a gem. Weeks later I am still thinking about how great this massage was and looking forward to returning soon. I got a 90 minute combination massage with DeeDee and was shown to a private room. She asked if I had any areas I wanted her to pay special attention to and I told her my neck and upper back have been bothering me lately. She honed in on a knot in my back that she kept coming back to (it was painful but painful in a good way... and I nearly asked her to stop but glad I endured it since it get relief afterwards). read more

Emma is great; she found all of my pressure points and did an absolutely phenomenal job, I will be back again soon.

This place is so wonderful. From the moment you step in your senses will be heightened by the aromatherapy in the air. You'll leave your shoes at the door and then be taken back to your room. I had the combo massage (Thai and Swedish massage) for 2 hours- $140. I couldn't believe 2 hours for that price- such an incredible deal. My massage therapist checked in on pressure- I was in heaven nodding off every once in a while. The combo massage is so great because you get the best of Thai massage with stretching and a little back walking coupled with deep tissue. I left feeling so incredible. I hope I can visit again while I'm here and next time include the herb ball. read more

So I came to Iyara to relieve my back, neck and shoulder pain. I've gotten deep tissue massages at other places, but it never relieved the pain for me. My appointment was with Angelina. She was very professional. Her room was clean, and she made me feel welcomed and relaxed. When she massaged me I immediately knew she would be able to help me. She knew where all the tightness was and started to loosen the muscles for me. At the end of the session my neck pain was gone! I felt much lighter. She told me to schedule a 90 minute or 2 hour follow-up session so she could continue the healing process. I saw her for 2 more sessions and now my back and shoulder pain is gone. She's unbelievable! If you have any muscle or joint pain, I absolutely recommend Angelina! She's AMAZING! read more

I usually get a massage once a month, and I can truly say this was by far the best massage I have ever received. I will now drive the extra distance to come to this location. read more

Thank you for the attentiveness & customer service in reaching out! Very professional & the masseuse did an excellent job

Tammy was great I came here for a 1 hour Thai massage. She stretched me out and cracked my back and I feel back to normal. Easy to make an appointment and accepts credit cards. Very clean inside and the staff is very friendly. read more

I just had to come back and leave another review for my massage with Dee. Two days ago, I did my first big 100 mile bike ride and my right knee was in so much pain the whole time. I think it was tightness in my hip or quads or something. I couldn't straighten my leg without pain that night and the following day so I made an appointment for a 90 minute Thai massage. Dee worked her magic and I felt much better after. But what shocked me was that when I woke up this morning my knee pain was gone! Thank you so much for the pain relief. It was incredible and immediate. read more

came here for a couples massage and had a wonderful time! The place was clean and quiet when we were there. Recommend bringing cash to tip and pay to avoid extra fees. read more

Angelina is amazing! She took me as a client when my previous massage place refused me because of my back injury. Every time I get a massage from her, my pain decreases significantly. It's one of the only things that helps. She has also worked on my sprained ankle and bad knee. I can tell she really cares about helping me relieve my pain. I plan to keep seeing her regularly, even after I'm finally recovered. The place is also very nice and clean. The staff are all very welcoming, and it's easy to relax. read more

I've been going here for almost 2yrs and I never had an issues with them and the 1time I actually drover 20/30min to get there, I called to reschedule it and said I was coming the next day and she was rude and hung up on me and then blocked from their land line. Thats rude and not professional read more

Came here in pain and got a Deep Tissue Massage with Coco and Nadia. My wife and I are extremely relieved from all our gym workout related activities. Totally recommend this place as it's the best so far. Thank you Coco and Nadia read more

Angelina is the best. Great technique, uses the right amount of pressure, intuitive, and cares about her clients.

I had a wonderful experience today at Iyara Thai BodyWork with Ms. Coco, a professional therapist. She was being professional and accommodating throughout the 90mins service. She was willing to be flexible and understanding that I had severe stiffness in my neck and back, so she focused on those areas and relieved my pain. Overall, I highly recommend this Thai Bodywork for severe pain and stiffness. They will definitely help you out! Thanks, Jake read more

This is a small business that I would Never had discovered I'd it weren't for Yelp- and I'm so glad I did! They are affordable, comfortable, and not only did I get an amazing massage, but I was stretched, leaving me completely comfortable at the end of my hour. I highly recommend them! read more

I have a Thai massage background from Bangkok at watpo. These ladies are incredible. I have been worked on by 3 ladies and they are all amazing. read more

It was a pleasure going to Iyara Thai Bodyworks. Very clean, professional, and welcoming staff. Angelina is truly an expert on pain treatment. She helped me with my sciatica, IT band, and knee pain. I asked her to focus on these problem areas, and she did just that for my ninety minute massage. She knows exactly what she's doing. I walked out feeling like a brand new person. No more knee pain! I will definitely be coming back here, and Angelina will absolutely be my massage therapist again! read more
