I went here for a Bachelorette's party and it was awesome! Big soaking tub and a massage…read moreafterwards? Heaven on earth!! We had an hour in the soak room which was big enough for 6 people! A steam, hottub and a cold plunge! They also gave us totes with robes so we could move to and fro areas. The massage was the best massage Ive ever gotten. It was a deep tissue with I believe her name was Jessica or Jesse. It was dim and very relaxing! I will say this place was pretty pricey so I'd do it for a special occasion! The only blip, and it really is a small blip is that one of the front desk ladies misheard my friend when she said she was paying for 2 of us and charged her for 3. We able to sort it out amongst ourselves (Thanks zelle lol) but they were very apologetic! I'll be sure to come back for an anniversary or something!

For the price I paid everything was nice but the MASSAGE which is what I was looking forward to. I…read morewas really disappointed. I asked for a deep tissue massage when i got there they said i had prebooked for Swedish massage. When we were about to get our massage they asked if I wanted to her to focus on any parts of my body. I told her my shoulder blades and lower back. I thought I was going to still get my full body massage but my whole massage was just based off that and rushed with everything else. One side of my body was massaged nicely then the other side was not massaged the same leaving me feel unfinished. Everything felt clean hot tubs were a perfect temp and cold tub next to it was a perfect cold temp. I won't go back again due to unprofessional massage. I was very disappointed with massage.

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!

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.

So, Amy contacted me and expressed she had never been treated in the manner I treated her; which…read morewas confusing. She stated she would offer to refund me the difference of what I paid her and whatever I thought the massage was worth. I thanked her and named a price. I sent a request for the refunded amount in VenMo. That was 4 days ago. I have not received a refund, nor have I heard from Amy. Instead I received a random message in Yelp from Amy telling me to write as many reviews as I like. This was odd and I flagged the content of the message exchange in Yelp so they can facilitate whatever was occurring between Amy and I. I then copied and pasted my reply to Amy into VenMo, hoping Amy would see it and acknowledge her offer to refund me for part of the cost. I still have not received the refund Amy offered nor have I received any communication from her to clarify what she did intend to communicate or to proceed with a refund she offered. So, at this point I presume she never meant to refund me, like she stated.‍ Approximately an hour after posting this, Amy accused me of harassing her.‍ Proceed with caution if you decide to reserve her services. First and last time for me.

Didn't ask my name because they had caller id. I arrived on time, the only one there, and waited 15 minutes. No big deal. It may have just opened for day. Explained to the front desk the areas I'd like to focus on. They said no problem. 6-10 chair beds in one dimly lit room, good ambiance. Another person came in right after me and they sat us directly next to each other until the other person requested space. Massage was good, had to request more pressure. I specifically pointed to the places I wanted focus (forearm, thumb/hand, calf, Achilles, and foot & ball of foot -- all on the left side.) (also lower neck and behind my left ear to loosen the muscle near my eustachian tube) not only do I feel the right side was given the most attention, my left calf and Achilles weren't touched at all. Lots of attention paid to the feet and between the toes, shoulders and neck were nice too, but not evenly distributed. There were also supposed to be hot stones, but I don't think that was even done when i was laying flat. All and all, maybe a good massage if you're just looking for a general feel good rub, but don't go expecting transformation or anything mind blowing.
