did a walk in today and booked a 5pm appt. was told by woman at the counter we are too busy come back tomorrow, then received 2 calls saying my 5 o'clock appt was ready. wtf? read more

I got an hour and a half massage last night. The lady wouldn't stop hitting my spine with her elbow. I was in pain during the massage and am in pain now. She also acted confused and was insisting I didn't pay enough until giving up a 35% tip. This place can be great or a huge miss. read more

This was my first massage at this location and it was amazing! She was checking in on my comfort level all throughout and I appreciated that. I also took my husband for his first massage ever and he will definitely be back. Great value and very responsive on appointment details. read more

It was excellent. I felt much better right away. Younger, lighter more energy and good feeling.

Yes, good price but you get what you pay for. Customer service is low, mainly because they don't speak English. Tried to ask specific areas but mainly went ignored. The actual deep tissue massage was more of a rub then a massage....so yea, price is cheap but they should really put some peeps in place who can speak some level of English. read more

The massage you get at this place is unbeatable for the price. As someone who has lot of tight muscles, the massage was really relaxing. Felt very rejuvenated overall . Will definitely go back :) read more

My second time back at Massage Ultra and I'll definitely be coming back again. Lisa was AMAZING! Just the right amount of pressure and focus on knots without irritating the muscles. You can't be the quality of the massage for the price- and such an easy and quick booking process with lots of appointment availability on short notice! read more

We had a couples massage booked last week at this Brookline location and would never recommend to anyone. Even though I filled out a questionnaire on the pressure level and areas I wanted to focus on, the masseuse seemed to completely disregard that and when I kept speaking up that the pressure was too hard or too soft when she was massaging areas. We were told hot stones were included in the massage but didn't receive any. When it came to pay, we paid by credit card for the massages but were told that there were additional $4 fee per $40 if we were to use credit card. What the hell? Nothing on the website indicated any credit card fees would be added on. That would have been a nice thing to know before hand. We also gave a 20% cash tip based on the $39.99 per person massage (this price is listed all over the website when booking). The masseuse told us the real price was $70+ and that our tip was too low, that we needed to give extra tip, which we were shocked by. Nothing on the website during booking said that it was a discount or for first time customers and honestly felt like it was a scam by them to get more money out of us. It would have been one thing if they politely pointed it out to us but they were outright rude about it. If they wanted a tip based on the real value of the massage, then why isn't the business advertising on the website the real cost? We didn't have any additional cash because we had brought only exact change for the tip. My husband felt pressured to pull money from the ATM they had on site to give them extra tip. I honestly felt that they didn't deserve the extra tip based on their rude behavior. I honestly felt like the mediocre massage and shakedown for extra tip left a bad feeling. Please don't come here and go somewhere else instead. read more

Massages are great, for the price you get a relaxing experience and of good quality. Very punctual and Amy in particular is so good. However the price is a little misleading. Yes the massage costs $39.99 for one person BUT if you don't tip at least $12 they will ask you for the $12 (I tipped $10) and will look at you weird if you don't. So really the massage costs $52 but even for that price especially around the brookline area where there are other massage places this is worth it. If you insist on tipping less than $12 just be ready for an awkward conversation. read more

I have walked past this place hundreds of times and never gave it a second thought. However, I needed a massage and couldn't beat the price so decided to try this place out. Turns out, I had one of the best massages ever! My masseuse used the perfect amount and pressure. The place was clean and cozy and the staff were friendly. I would 100% go back. read more

Great massage place. I had some really bad back problems recently and this place really helped. Very friendly women associates and the place was very clean and comfortable-feeling. $40 for a one hour deep tissue massage is great and they suggest a minimum of $12 for tip but I honestly think $15-20 is a good tip because the base price is so low and they do great work. 10/10 recommend read more

My body was hurting and I'm from WAY out of town, so I tried my luck with this place. I've had many, many massages, and this was one of the very best I've ever had, bar none. I was a teeny bit hesitant about the location, but it turned out to be quite nice. Everyone was very friendly and businesslike, and the work was fantastic, and also a real bargain. Don't hesitate, it's extremely good! If I lived here this would be my go to place! read more

I was a bit nervous this place was going to be a bit seedy based on the price but decided to give it a shot. I'm so glad I did! It was super clean, the women were lovely, and it was one of the best massages I've ever gotten. With the low price, I'm planning to go more frequently. read more

My friend recommended this message spa, my husband booked the appointment for two, the price was great $39.99 for 60 minute. We got there earl, inside the spa no one was at the front to greet or check us, someone came out in a few minutes which wasn't bad but a need to let you know in the front they a sign which states that they accepts cash, checks and credit cards, there is also a sign which says we recommend a tip of $14.00, they also have an ATM machine in the front. My husband and I was called into the room inside the room smelled like basement mold, the massage was okay, we got done got dress went back to the lobby to pay I tried to pay with my debit card, the front desk person kept tell me to take money from the ATM which I did not want to but was forced another thing I didn't like is we gave a tip of $26 and was told that's no enough it had to be $14 or more for these reasons it was the worst experience ever and I would never recommend this place to anyone I know friend or fo. read more

Decent massage. They accommodated a walk-in which was great. No frills, no conversation, no check-in about whether I was comfortable or satisfied. I chose medium-hard pressure and I am sore today, but that is what I expect and prefer. Pretty good value for money. $40 with tip for 30 minute massage. Would go again for shoulder and neck pain relief, but if you're looking for a spa-experience, go elsewhere. read more

My friend bought me a gift certificate for a prenatal massage. I booked a day in advance with no problem at all. I also booked for my sister, and we were able to come at the same time. The space is new and very clean. The room was warm (perhaps a bit too much, but I'm 35 weeks pregnant, so I tend to feel warmer than most people...) I loved the massage! It was surelaxing and addressed all my aches. My sister also enjoyed her regular massage very much. The price is very good and the service is friendly. We will be back for sure! read more

Love this place! Booking appointments is very easy and it's open until pretty late everyday so that you can go after work. The rate is super great but they don't cheap out on the experience at all! After the massage I smell great and feel relaxed. Will definitely go back! read more

My friend and I went to get a quick massage and found this hole in the wall salon. It was super cheap so we were unsure what the quality would be like but we were more than impressed!!! These two women were adorable and gave great massages. The prices are crazy reasonable & the experience all together was refreshing and exactly what we needed!!! read more

Consistently the best massages I've ever got!

Amazing massage for an unbeatable price! This place is a hidden gem. there's plenty of availability and they were also very punctual. I totally recommend! read more

The staff that assisted me was extremely rude. After the massage I took cash out of the ATM because I was told that it was cash or check only. The max dispursement amount allowed was $40. I took the $40 then proceeded to take another $40 out to cover the cost of the massage and tip but the machine ran out of cash. I let her know and she said that I could pay by credit card. I was a little confused because I was told that it was cash or check only. I then received a link to pay online via credit card. I paid and then asked if she had received the payment. She said that she had but that I only tipped $15 and that the tip was normally $18 as she pulled out a sign from behind the counter showing the same information. I let her know that $15 was what I wanted to tip. She then looked at me with a confused expression and said something to her coworker in Chinese. I asked if everything was okay and she replied that I can leave and gestured with her hand for me to leave. It was an uncomfortable incident. The fact that she told me how much I should tip and that my tip was not enough even though it was was ridiculous. I will not be returning to this location unfortunately . read more

Excellent massage! No frills, relaxing, perfect. My masseuse played relaxing spa music, did their thing, and I almost fell asleep. I felt deeply relaxed and much less sore after. 10/10 recommend Massage Ultra! read more

Great experience, from making an appointment online to walking out, and also the best deal you can find! I will definitely be going back :)

got out of there feeling like i just woke up from a dream. Friendly, and a nice price. 100% recommend!

It was excellent I liked the atmosphere and Emily kept me relaxed!...I would come back and will recommend!

Decided to try this spa based upon their reviews and I was not disappointed. Located in Coolidge Corner near high-end shops, eateries and night life. I saw Ada who was my massage therapist. Ada was very friendly, professional and courteous. Ada performed a light-medium massage which was very soothing and relaxing. I was well refreshed afterward. Ada is a great massage therapist and I highly recommend her. The pricing guidelines are very, very reasonable and are actually the least expensive in the entire city. The spa is also exceptionally clean. Thank you Ada and Massage Ultra for a great massage experience. read more

Amazing!!! Such a good deal, very nice people working there, and truly one of the best massages I've ever gotten.

Left feeling VERY uncomfortable. Had so many massages before and this felt weird. Don't recommend. Seemed unprofessional

It really is this good for this cheap. I don't really understand how it all works, but every massage therapist I have seen has been extraordinary. read more

I went in for a massage recently, during COVID, due to excruciating back pain. First, the place was extremely clean, all staff wore masks, sanitizer was readily available in all rooms and distance was maintained in the lobby. The massage was fantastic. The therapist quickly localized my problem areas and provided excellent deep tissue massage. Given the hygeine practices and quality of care, I will be returning despite pandemic. read more

Massage Ultra called to remedy the situation and explained the misunderstanding to me. It was via voicemail because I was unable to answer the phone. But this shows how they're able to run a business correctly. UPDATE: I feel bad writing this but believe it needs to be said. I've treated myself to a lot of massages since my first review I wrote, and it's been so hit or miss for me. IMO, Emily is the best therapist there. I request her online the website if she's available. My S.O. bought me a massage as a gift, and requested Emily for me because he knows I love her. I got there yesterday, and did not have Emily. I feel like if I'm requesting someone, it's for a reason. If I had known I wasn't going to get who I requested, I may have cancelled my appointment entirely. The woman I had was very kind, but she barely used any massage oil, to the point where my skin was literally hot from the friction! To be fair, I didn't say anything, but I'm also someone who feels awkward in those positions, especially in that situation. This place used to be a $60 massage for $40, but now I feel like it's a $40 massage for $40. I think we may start to go somewhere else less frequently, but spend more money in the future for better quality. So happy I found this place! A super relaxing and friendly environment. They are located on the basement level so keep an eye out for their sign. First client pricing is amazing. They only take cash but have an ATM there that doesn't have a service charge I will be back read more

I had a. massage yesterday with Kelly and she was fantastic! She gave me the right amount of pressure and had a great touch. Very nice and welcoming! She didn't chat but got down to work. By the way, the music was very calming. I definitely will return! read more

Emily is absolutely stunning in her work, making me feel so good when done from head to toe! Very discreet and professional. Sweet and cheerful to go with her talents! read more

This place is fantastic! Great massage. GREAT value. Forty dollars for a 60 minute massage - where else can you find that?! And that's there all-the-time rate. Seriously. Go. read more

No nonsense massage place that offers great massages at a price you can't beat. The staff is professional and very friendly.

Absolutely amazing!!! Found this cute spot and they were able to squeeze my friend and I in for an appointment later that day! Two very sweet women gave amazing massages for a very reasonable price! read more

So easy to make an appointment, very clean and pleasant place, fabulous massage. The price is absurdly good. I can't recommend this place strongly enough!! read more

Wonderful experience here and at a great price. They were professional and gave a great deep tissue massage. Will definitely be going back here. read more

This is the best massage I had so far. I am 36 weeks pregnant and needed a massage so bad. My masseuse gave me enough amount of pressure to ease my discomforts. Service is excellent. Ambiance is very relaxing and clean. If you are looking for a good massage with a budget, this is the right place for you too only that they are on cash basis. Make sure to bring cash or you can withdraw on the atm that they have. read more
