I just walked out of a massage floating. Lucas did an amazing job. The best massage I've ever had. I am a masseuse myself and I know what's good. I walked in with my shoulders up to my ears, and now they are where they should be. I feel amazing. Bless his hands. I will be back for more. read more

Had an amazing foot massage from Lucas today! I let him know my calves were really tight from exercise and he focused on them and released a lot of pressure. With the foot massage, it included a quick neck & face massage as well as a quick back and shoulder massage and I was in heaven. This was the best massage I've had in a while. read more

Womp womp!! I went here for a date and we both left disappointed and tight. The ambiance was nice but they didn't get the knots or kinks out, we both were saying harder but they just didn't execute... then had the nerve to ask for a tip. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. I was gifted a massage with Tony at New Happy Day Spa after hearing great things from friends. I went in looking for something calming and relaxing, and I told him that upfront. He said he understood. But instead of a soothing massage, it started off with full on "Hulk Smash"... literally. Tony actually banged and smashed on my back the moment the massage began. It felt like he thought he was Tony Stark and had let the Hulk take over the massage table. It was all brute force, intense, and completely opposite of what I expected or asked for. I had to end the massage early out of fear he might injure my back. This was by far the worst massage I have ever had in my life. To make matters worse, New Happy Day Spa never offered any apology or accountability for the experience. I have never gone back, and I would not recommend Tony or New Happy Day Spa to anyone. read more

Highly recommend their massages. I've been here before and they never disappoint. I usually have lower back issues and I just let them know ahead of time that this is my target area and they definitely take care of me. Very attentive on checking on the pressure and making sure I'm okay. No matter who I get they always have those magic hands. Very punctual and kind. Great customer service and the atmosphere is very relaxing and smells so good in here. I love the hot towels they put on me after the massage. I recommend coming here. Easy parking behind the building since you know downtown is always busy and hard to find parking, they have their own parking lot in back which made it so convenient for me. Will be back again. read more

Such a great place . All are very good massage therapists. Would recommend this place always.

The massage I received here on Mother's Day was a bad experience. I was massage by female and she was so rough with me, didn't ask me where I had knots at or if the pressure was to hard. She just kept rubbing deep into my skin. To the point where I kept saying ouch all the time. And now I'm sore from her being so rough on my back. I will definitely will not be returning. Maybe she had a lack of English? But she didn't communicate with me at all. It was bad experience read more

Went in for a foot reflexology and got almost a full body with still significant focus on the feet. Overall great experience and very reasonably priced. read more

We called around to several locations for a last minute massage on a Saturday afternoon. I gave New Happy Day Spa a call. They didn't answer, but within seconds returned my call. They had availability about 2 hours later. The entry was nice and simple. The staff at the desk was very sweet and let us know our therapists would be out shortly. I got Jason and my husband requested back walking and got CiCi. The rooms were cozy with soft background music. I was very impressed with the massage. I get massages often and this was really one of the best ones I've received in Sacramento. My husband agreed. We will definitely be back. I recommend giving this place a try. Thank you!!! read more

Not particularly the best experience. You get what you paid for. The masseuses were repetitive, and although the massage was marketed as 60 mins, they account for the changing time and setting up and you only really get ~40 mins out of the experience. My boyfriend and I came out disappointed with the lack of effort put into both our massages. side note: You need to tip at least 10 dollars. So even if your experience is boo boo, you still gotta show gratitude w/ minimum of 10 dollars. Don't get seduced by the price, I'd spend more money for a more fulfilled time. read more

I came here after receiving a Groupon for a 60-minute salt massage. Upon arrival, the receptionist was friendly, but there was a lack of introduction or consent process. Unlike the woman in front of me, we weren't asked about our preferred pressure level; instead, we were directed straight to the room. Once in the room, the massage started promptly. My masseuse, a woman, maintained decent pressure, but unfortunately, my husband's masseuse, a man, continued with uncomfortable pressure despite his feedback. There were many times I heard "ouch" from him even with feedback to the masseuse. Upon completion, during checkout, there was pressure to provide a $10 tip. Despite the expectation, we chose not to tip that much due to our experience. The disapproving stares we received made us reconsider returning. Prepare to be very sore when you return from the massage!! read more

I was looking forward to a relaxing massage but unfortunately thats not what I got. Super intesnse with constant, pinpoint pressure. I got a male masseuse and despite requesting multiple times the pressure was too much. I even verbally expressed my pain and got very little feedback in return. I am now extremely sore. Would NOT recommend. They also pressure you to tip $10 and if you don't they question you. read more

So much to improve here. Got there at 10:15 and asked for the 60 minute Holiday Special Massage for $50 offered on their webpage. I was told they don't have that. I mentioned to them that they literally have signs posted in their windows advertising it. Then the woman tells me we don't offer it on Mondays. I pointed out the flyer as well as the web page says offered M-F before 1:00pm. I am finally in the room and the massage therapist says she will give me hot rocks. I said I prefer the salt scrub. This is one of the options listed on the flyer. She told me no, too messy! At the end she, asked me for a tip. If I had not been feeling stressed when I went in I was when I left. I will never return. read more

My all favorite massage place in Sacramento. Always a very clean and professional establishment. The massages are always the best. I've been to many massage establishment throughout my years but I'm constantly coming back to this place. Highly recommend! read more

As soon as I walked in I was greeted by Isabella, whom was very sweet. The waiting room was clean and quiet. Shortly after arriving I was introduced to Amy. Amy was soft spoken, direct, and kind. The room was clean, dimmed, and smelled pleasant. I mention the smell because I've been to a place before that had an unpleasant stench and I had to cancel my service! The massage was very relaxing. I have been getting back into my regular gym sessions and the need for a physical body tune up has been long overdue. Amy had firm pressure and she checked in often with her pressure. Her soft voice was unstartling and kept me in my Zen. I found this location while looking through ads on Groupon. I saw they had a great deal for a full body massage and salt scrub. I honestly don't remember the scrub or if she applied that service but I didn't mind. A hot towel was applied towards the end of the service which was nice. After the massage I made my way back to the waiting room and I was greeted by Amy who had a bottled water waiting for me. I gifted her a tip for her services and spoke to Isabella regarding future appointments and preferable parking. Unfortunately, the parking situation can be an issue during busy days or times. With the other businesses located close by it seems like HDS's dedicated parking area gets taken up by others. I was able to find a parking space just a block away. However, this was not a major factor for me. This was my first experience with HDS and I feel they nailed it, I will absolutely keep them in mind next time I need services. read more

I love this place! I've gone four times and had three different masseuses and everybody has been wonderful. It's clean, professional, and everybody's very nice. I've been able to get in without much notice which is great for my schedule. read more

New Happy Day Spa - Prices March 2024 - Reflexology Near Me - Sacramento, California

My bf and I got a couples massage here yesterday, and it was good for the most part given the price! I paid around $100 for both of our massages for an hour. There were a few times where each of us had to ask the masseuse to go a little lighter and/or move off bony prominences (lol) but overall we left feeling a little lighter and looser. I'd go back given the cheap price, but not necessarily a high end massage if that's what you are looking for! read more

HATE THIS PLACE they got super upset when I didn't give a tip and as soon as I left, she blocked my number. I don't mind giving a tip but I don't want to be forced to give a tip. read more

Yup!! They will definitely get your knots out!! I came because I always get knots on my back and I'm not from here and I needed a massage place to take them out and they sure did it! I paid 60 for a full body massage if I ever come to Sacramento again I will make sure to stop here again! read more

I received the best massage from Tony! This is a clean and classy establishment that was able to accommodate 4 of us on a Sunday morning. We are visiting Sacramento and I was looking for a deal on Groupon so I called first before purchasing. I'm glad I did because she offered to match that price without purchasing on Groupon, that's better for the business because they don't have to give Groupon a cut, it's not a bad idea to ask if you're looking on Groupon. They were able to get us in within an hour and a half. We all 4 enjoyed our massages and would recommend stopping in if you're in the area! read more

Last night, my husband and I went in for a 9 pm massage appointment gifted with two Groupons. Linda was the one who assisted us at the front desk. When Linda found out we had Groupons insisted their last appointment is 8 pm. I told her we can reschedule but said it was fine. When we got in the room, I've noticed right away that the room had an unpleasant odor, bed sheet had some hair, soiled dirty white. I could just imagine if the light was even brighter! I wanted to change my mind and walk out as I didn't want to lay my body in that hard, sweaty, soiled bed. I wouldn't want to catch any disease. The oil had a very old stale smell even when I was wearing my mask, I can already smell if. His hands were very sweaty. The crystal salt scrub took longer than usually should be. As we headed back out to the front desk, Linda asked us if we felt good about the massage. My husband and I replied it was good. As my husband took out our tip of $10, she asked again if we felt good. I didn't catch what she meant at first and so my husband told me that she wanted us to add more on our tip. Because we didn't bring cash, my husband asked if we can use our credit card. I was so shocked and was speechless. I cannot believe that Linda was so bold to ask for more. Good thing I had $10 more dollars I found in my purse. I'm sharing my experience not to talk low or bad about a business or other people but it's helpful to warn other customers before going there. Tip is given what your heart says, it should not be a force gesture. read more

My husband and I had a couples massage today and we had a wonderful experience. I am a regular customer. My husband comes occasionally. Such a nice staff. Massage rooms are always clean. Same for their bathroom . We made a reservation because it was a holiday and I'm glad we did because they were busy. The massage therapist will always change their pressure at this place if you ask. They don't always speak the best English but they are trained well. That's one of the multiple reasons I like this place. Parking on the street and behind the building, which really helps because this is a busy part of East Sac. Right on J street. Good prices and I always leave a good tip! read more

I had an appointment for a 60min Body Massage with Salt Scrub yesterday in the evening as I had a Groupon for. Everything was fine but the only problem was the actual massage itself. This was the most painful and worst "massage" I've ever had. The masseuse put way too much pressure when using her elbows and fingers, despite me asking many times for lighter pressure. The masseuse did not seem to understand what I would say when I would ask for lighter pressure; I had even told her that what she was doing hurt and yet she still continued with the same pressure. When massaging with her fingers and especially the boniest part of her elbows, she put ALL of her weight on that point that she was massaging. The masseuse also did not take any pressure off when massaging bony prominences; she would press just as hard. When massaging the back of my neck, she also would have such hard pressure and would be squeezing the SIDE of my neck instead of focusing on my actual neck muscles. Absolutely horrible. I had come to this business for back relief for my back pain but I left in worse condition than when I came in. I found that I was left with bruises on my spine and shoulder blade from how hard she was pressing down. I came to this business for my back pain but I left in much more pain than when I came in. I've had many massages and I have never had a problem with the pressure and have never been in that much pain during a massage. I would never recommend this place to anyone. I'll come back to update on the bruises and how it progresses. read more

It's really a shame yelp doesn't let you give negative stars. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE!!!! We learned the hard way you get what you pay for with massages. First of all my girlfriend and I went together and she specifically requested to have a female masseuse, they didn't listen and she got a male. This wasn't as big a deal because we were in the room together and I made sure she was ok. Granted we did both request a deep massage and told them which areas to focus on, they ignored our request for which area and I think they made sure to go way above and beyond our "deep" massage request. As you can see from the pictures my girlfriends back is completely bruised, she can't even sleep on her back now and is in a bit of pain. I didn't end up bruised just in a lot of pain and in worse condition than when I went in. We also both were supposed to get body scrubs (my girlfriend was most excited about this), but that didn't happen. Obviously disappointing. Call me crazy but I always thought a massage was to make you feel better and relaxed. What we received was pretty much the complete opposite of relaxing and made us both feel worse. I have no idea how anyone would ever go back to this place if they got the same treatment we did. This place should be out of business, probably why they're selling their massages on Groupon. I repeat DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!!!! Find someone to kick you in the back if a bruised up back is what you're after. read more

I have had many massages in my life and by far this was the most uncomfortable experience I've ever had. This was my first time booking an appointment at New Happy Day Spa. When I arrived, and checked in, I was immediately brought back to a dim lit room and was told the massage therapist would be in shortly. My masseuse turned out to be the same man, Lucas, that checked me in. There was no consultation regarding the areas to work on and to avoid. Nor was I asked what type of massage I'd like or if I had a preference on the gender of the person who would be working on me. All of which is totally out of the norm. I SHOULD NOT have ignored those red flags. The massage started off like any normal massage. However, when he was massaging my back, at one point, he actually straddled himself on top of me which I felt was very inappropriate and unprofessional! It made me question if he was even licensed. I told the person at check out what happened and she told me she didn't understand what I was saying because there was a language barrier. I called the establishment a little later that day, hoping to speak to a manager, to let them know how uncomfortable I felt and was told to text a woman named Isabella with my complaint. WTH!!!! I was so angry I went online to file a complaint with the BBB and could not even do so because this location isn't on their website. Based on this experience, I truly believe the people working there are not licensed massage therapists. I am absolutely disgusted. DO NOT give them your business. read more

Total luck of the draw. Called to book a couples massage. I asked for someone "really " strong like super strong for my large husband and someone strong for me. They said yes of course. We got two women who it didn't even feel like they were trained. Repetitive and timid and stayed in places so long it started to burn. We asked for things like (no legs) and they did legs anyway. I wanted to write down their names but they gave me ones that I swear weren't there's. I think I've had an "Amy and cici" each time I've been but these were not the same women. I guess you get what you pay for since it's so cheap but every once in a while it's a good experience. Proceed with caution read more

I was questioning going because of some of the negative reviews here - but I went anyway. And I had one of the best massages I've ever had. I've just moved to the area, and after one massage I know that this is the place I will be going to moving forward. Super reasonable pricing too and the spa was relaxing and well kept. Definitely recommend ‍ read more

Have you ever felt a kink in your neck leave your body? Well, today it happened to me for the first time ever. I have had a kink in my neck for 6 days and the massage I had done here was the best massage I have ever had. I will definitely be back read more

My husband bought me a 60 minute full body massage with salt scrub for mothers day and it was fantastic!! I was with Cici. I asked for medium hard pressure and she sure delivered. The massage was great and the space was very clean and welcoming. So happy to have found a new favorite massage place! We will be back for sure. read more

Nothing fancy, but does the trick if you've got achy muscles. Super affordable , with lots of package/membership pricing options if you're a regular. 4-stars only because service is fine not very personalized and sometimes staff talks loudly in the hallways. read more

100 times over for I recommend this spot. So much so, I don't want to tell you about it! And...they give you a birthday discount! Anytime the week around your birthday. What better gift than self care! Will be back as often as possible! read more

Horrible place , talking throughout massage , walking in and out of room to answer calls, does not give full 60 minutes only 40 minutes, demanding higher tip always, horrible attitude rude staff will Never return in my life, do Not recommend at all. read more

The massage therapists at this spa are very skilled, professional and very thoughtful. I have gone to New Happy Day for several years now and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Candence read more

Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be coming back. My first few massages were fantastic. The last two were absolutely terrible. My pain threshold is quite high and I was in absolute pain my last two massages. Which defeats the purpose of a massage. I actually prefer hard pressure but this was not it. I felt like both times they just used their knuckles and nothing else. I spoke up but I don't believe they understood/did anything about it. They are very friendly though to add one positive to this review. read more

Never regret getting a massage at this spa. The masseuse was detailed and worked out the knots on my shoulders. Definitely will be back

Went for a couples massage and I never knew someone would be so racist or biased against the fact that my husband is black & happens to have and ankle monitor. As soon as the lady in the room saw it her whole attitude towards him changed. She didn't massage him Correctly she hurt him bad read more

Used to be my preferred Happy Day Spa location but I won't be returning due to the new management/employees they seem to have. The quality of their service and massage therapists have changed. It now operates like the other Happy Day Spas where the massage therapist are roughly "new" & inexperienced about the human body. During my last visit, I was told there is a minimum tip of $10 after offering a $5 tip (even for a bad experience) and that made me devalue the business even more. I'm not a fan of the greed of businesses & the lack of sophistication I experienced when it comes to customer service. In one of my last experiences my massage therapists walked out of my session to answer the phone and greet another customer because they had overbooked themselves and customers were walking out. She did this on my time & money & then expected a high tip. Makes no sense to me the lack of transparency these places have about their "services & its policies". Getting pinched and abandoned on a massage table & then asked to over tip on my way out? Never again. read more

This place is the only business that can provide consistently hard pressure massages that are top quality.
