    90 minutes of bliss! The massages here are always top tier! I feel completely rejuvenated afterwards and can wait until my next visit.

    Hands down one of the best massages I've ever had. Ambience, cleanliness, technique, and service are all amazing. Oh and did I mention the unbeatable price at $90 for an hour?! I love how you can fill out a form and let them know which areas to focus on. My sciatica has been killing me so I was able to get my glute and quads stretched out and it felt so much better afterwards! I'll be adding this place to my monthly self care.

    My husband signed us up for a couple massage for our anniversary. The place does not look like much from the outside but when you walk in it's really quite nice and serene. Note there's street parking only. With our package we got essential oils and hot stones included! Man, what a game changer! They also offer water and some tea. They give you sandals to change into. The two ladies who did our massages (I believe the couples massage is like a Thai massage style) were both great! They really worked the areas we wanted to focus on and ultimately got the whole body feeling less tense. It was a little hard/painful but that's what I wanted - they do check multiple times to make sure you're okay with the pressure level. The face pillow smelled like the scent I picked (eucalyptus) and when it came to the hot stones it just elevated the massage so much. The rooms/space is clean and it was such a great way to start our day. It was $270 for a 90 minute couples massage before tip. Highly highly recommend coming here!! The other massage options are competitive/fair and they do a really good job.

    The massage was really good - I got Thai deep tissue massage. The environment is clean and quiet, and the staff are very friendly.

    beautiful lounge area

    I came with a lot of pain in my neck, shoulders and lower back and Nina took super good care of me. I haven't had a powerful massage like this before, hence it was also my first time having a thai massage. I highly recommend them, and the prices are so convenient.

    Do they play music? I prefer quiet....

    Yes, they do play music and the tables are in one open room divided by curtains so you can occasionally hear others. It's still a very peaceful and relaxing environment.

    What is the price for a migraine massage?

    Just go to our website you can see prices. Thank you

    Price includes tax and tip?

    Why choose Rachel?…read more Massage therapy should be a holistic experience that benefits both the mind and body. While massage helps promote relaxation and the release of endorphins, that experience can be diminished if the therapist appears disengaged or unhappy in their work. Whether you prefer conversation or silence, feeling comfortable and cared for is essential. Rachel consistently provides that experience through her warm personality, professionalism, intelligence, and genuine care for her clients. I specifically asked her to address my chronic shoulder pain, and she was able to identify and work on the muscles that were triggering my symptoms. The treatment was targeted, effective, and left me feeling significantly better. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, I understand the importance of patient experience and quality care. It's easy to see why people appreciate Rachel's work ethic and the positive environment she creates. Good vibes overall. Thank you, Rachel!

    Long story short, Rachel is a great massage therapist. She creates a relaxing space just by her way…read moreand aura alone, and is attentive to client details. After a single visit, on coming back a month later, she somehow remembered a lot about me - that I practice brazilian jiujitsu, do regular soft tissue work at home, that I have family and business in Orange County. We chatted for at most 10 total minutes during my first visit. It's exactly this type of continuity that I was looking for in finding a massage therapist to go to more regularly. Berkeley has a few great Thai massage places but therapists rarely speak English and they never seem to honor the specific therapist you book. I was looking for someone who will retain information on what I like and what my muscles need, and Rachel is exactly that kind of massage therapist.

I'm appalled looked at these 1 stars.... and there are plenty..... Anyways, I will speak to my experience: I went here because I heard about it here and there. Will never return. The woman at the front desk was extremely rude and gruff, the place felt dirty, and massage itself sucked, didn't seem like she knew what she was doing, there was no presence, or attention. So, I did NOT tip (and I usually always tip because its a nice thing to do, especially if you really appreicate the services etc but I was upset by my experience and a massage is supposed to relax you).. when she was done, I got dressed, and start walking towards to the exit door and the message therapist accosts me "Why didn't you tip me?! I gave you a massage!?! Why no tip!?" I just shook my head and left. I will not return. They are rude, really poor interpersonal skills and have no skills in their craft.

    My partner and I booked massages in advance and were placed in separate private rooms when we…read morearrived. The place was clean and simple, no fancy decor but inviting enough with dim lighting and gentle melodies playing in the background. Beware, you can hear through the walls -- cars honking outside, staff chatter (in Chinese) in the lobby and shared space with massage lounge seating, even my boyfriend's snoring in the room next to mine during our sessions. We got the combination massage (30 minutes foot/30 minutes body), and my experience was positive. Pressure wasn't consistent during the entire treatment, but for the most part it was on the deeper side and effective. The first half focused mainly on the back, plus neck, shoulders, and arms, as well as a bit of the legs. The second half, my masseur asked me to "turn over" as he left the room briefly. He meant not only to flip over to lie on my back but also to change positions so that my head would be at the foot of the bed. From there, he did a very detailed job on my legs, feet, and each individual toe, borderline painful but overall good. We paid upfront before our services, including a credit card fee (2.50 per massage). Afterward, we gave a cash tip. They have a sign at the front asking for $20 (with very friendly language), which is the typical amount we tip anyway. The staff was incredibly kind and professional, so I have no complaints.

    I would not recommend this place…read more The experience started off strange but bearable when they required us to pay for the massage and tip before receiving any services. They asked if I was comfortable with a male massage therapist, and I said yes. However, the therapist appeared extremely nervous and was shaking throughout the massage. He was unable to apply much pressure, making the massage ineffective and uncomfortable. I paid for a full-body massage, but only the back side of my body was massaged. The front was completely skipped. When I asked why, I was told the therapist wasn't sure whether it would be appropriate. That explanation made no sense to me, especially since I had already agreed to having a male therapist. If you're advertising a full-body massage, customers should receive a full-body massage. What made the experience even worse was how my friend was treated. After her service was finished, she was told to wait outside in the cold while I was still receiving mine. The area is not the safest, and I found it incredibly unprofessional to ask a paying customer to stand outside and wait. Overall, this was one of the most disappointing massage experiences I've had. Poor service, poor communication, and not the service that was advertised. I will not be returning.
