    Back in 2015 - I had a massage in Maui that my wife and I paid huge bucks for and went back twice. The outdoor experience, authenticity, warm 80+ degree weather in the shade with a traditional lomi lomi massage made it incredible... This massage here in Irvine was the first time I left a massage place and had the same incredible feeling as I did then. A 110 minute birthday massage - it was not cheap but you pay for what you get. Beautiful set up, high end look. The massage tables are very comfortable and warm up while you lay down there. The blankets that cover you are heavy which is always a bonus (especially as a guy who is fully disrobed). The price is higher than I would want if I am going there regularly but its great for special occasions. Masseuse was very professional. A little bummed she didn't get the glutes and appeared to be very shy in that region - look I am there for a massage not a happy time. Its part of the gig. As long as you are professional so am I. No worries, still an excellent massage. Will definitely recommend and return.

    I normally never write public reviews, so for those reading this please pay attention and avoid supporting this business due to their management/front desk staff. For context I started going to this studio back in February 2022 and started 2 massage matters wellness programs for my partner and I pausing between September-December 2022. A base massage matters wellness program allows for a 50-minute massage for each person. I restarted my monthly membership back in December 2022. An appointment was booked for the both of us on Friday January 13th 2023 back in December 2022 when I re-started the wellness program for my partner and I. Due to scheduling issues I called on Thursday January 12th to rebook the January the 13th date to January 18th. The attendant told me since it was 24 hours before the Friday the 13th date that no late fee would be charged and my 2 80-minute massages on Friday the 13th would be booked on Wednesday the 18th. Context that will be important later, the 80-minute massages were booked several days later due to the availability for two simultaneous 80-minute massages from the therapists Steven and Joseph. On Saturday the 14th evening I get a call that I'm being charged $119.00 for a late fee and $30 (still not sure why this was charged) for missing our Saturday the 14th appointments! I'm absolutely flabbergasted as to why I have an appointment two days in a row for their monthly wellness program that only allows you to get one monthly massage per account. After some back and forth between front desk and the management that night I was told that there was a mistake in the booking from the front desk and that I would be refunded on the card. At this point I think the issue is resolved and both my partner and I go to our Wednesday 80-minute massages that were rescheduled to have the specific therapists Joseph and Steven. When I go there it turns out that the appointment was booked for two 50-minute massages with the therapists Joseph and Kam. (See screenshots for confirmed appointment time and receipt of a 50 minute massage) I am disappointed and the front desk can only apologize for the misbooking. Today January 19th 2023 I check my card for the charges for the 50-minute massages just to confirm it was charged instead of the 80-minute massages. I find out that the charge from Saturday's missed appointments were still on the card and call in the front desk. Apparently, I will not be getting a refund as promised by management on the card. A "cash" refund is being given instead. I go ahead and ask the attendant if this "cash" refund can be used to my monthly massage wellness massages and she says no, they can only be used for add-on purposes (extra tools used in massages, extra massages for the month, etc.). At this point I ask for an explanation of why this is the case because I'm exhausted from the deceit of the management and the front desk attendant rudely states that she will send over a massage matters wellness program cancellation request form. To sum it up: X I was double booked January the 13th and January the 14th for a wellness program that only allows for one massage every month (Why did the attendant that booked us in December book us two days in a row ??) XI was charged $119+$30 for the late fee of not showing up to a forced double booking on January the 14th X Management's answer was to give a full refund on the card that was promised by the attendant on January the 14th X I rescheduled my 2 80-minute massages on January the 13th for January the 18th but got 2 50-minute massages with the wrong therapists (Joseph and Steven were promised but it was Joseph and Kam) X I'm still being charged for the forced double-booking on January the 14th but have been given a "cash refund" instead as compensation which can't even be used for the monthly massage matters wellness massages. If you support fraudulent businesses and shady management then be my guest and go to this location. Prepare to be double booked for no reason, in addition to not keeping appointment times and promises.

    I honestly did not come here initially but was brought here by surprise by my boyfriend to help de-stress myself before a test. Boy did I enjoy my 50-minute massage!!! For COVID, masks are mandatory. They clean the tables of course between clients. The staff were super nice and assisted with everything from the choosing of aromatherapy and also using the CBD oil for the massage itself. My masseuse was DJ and he was able to take out the knots/stress on my shoulders and lower back. Did I fall asleep? Yes..yes I did but only for like a minute lol because I want to feel the massage. I definitely would like to come back and I recommend at least trying this place! They even have a Yelp check in deal!!

    How much does it cost and how long?

    Cost depends on length of service, their website has all of the information on prices and times

    Hello, I was wondering if your massage therapists are still wearing masks throughout the session as of May 2022? Thank you ☺️

    I got my first massage done there today (7/5/22). He was wearing a mask along with the front staff.

    How much is the relax massage for 80 mins?

    Hi. Prices are listed on their website. 😊

    Do you guys do massages to help with chronic myofascial pain or scar tissue adhesions? Specifically in the cervical area and between the shoulder blades?

    Hi Jonathan, the short answer is YES! Our therapists have extensive Neuromuscular Training so this sort of pain and scarring is something we deal with regularly. Feel free to contact the front desk and set up a service, they will walk you through…

I booked a massage with scalp rejuvenation. I'm not one for deep tissue so I asked my masseuse to go pretty light and she was excellent.

We showered off and headed in for our one hour Wren Massages. The two lovely ladies we got were absolutely fantastic, what a relaxing 60 minutes. Very attentive to everything and they paid special attention to the areas we pointed out prior to laying down on the tables. All the aromatherapy was absolutely fantastic as well, we had some good conversation in between with a couple of laughs. Honestly, my sister and I can't wait to come back. We plan to at least try and do this seasonally as we both work high stress jobs and it was exactly what we needed to relax and reset.

They do have a sound machine playing waves in the background, which helps gently block out some of the surrounding noise. If you're someone who gets easily distracted, I can see how it might be harder to fully get into that relaxing zen if someone starts chatting or snoring (). This actually happened during my last visit, and it took everything in me not to start laughing. The few times I've been here, the massage therapists have been pretty considerate and always check in to make sure the pressure is comfortable. During my last visit, I felt like some areas were a little rough, but I always recommend advocating for yourself and letting them know if you need them to adjust the pressure. My only real issue with this last visit was that my 90-minute massage ended about 5 minutes early, which was a bummer. My friend, who went with me and booked the same massage, also finished before I did, so it was a little confusing and something I didn't particularly appreciate. That aside, the prices are affordable, and overall, they get the job done. If you're looking for a reasonably priced massage and don't mind the more casual/open setup, I'd say it's worth giving them a try.
