I found this place after reading yelp reviews. I got the 30 minute reflexology and 60 minute body…read moremassage combo for $80. Overall the price was a very good deal. I requested a male therapist. Personally for me for the body massage he was a little too strong. He used a lot of elbows and each time he did that I had asked him to go softer as it hurt me too much. Someone who likes extremely deep pressure would be happy. When he used his actual hands everything was perfect. There was also a lot of rubbing over the sheet which I'm not used to. I didn't realize until I was done that all body massages are done face down with Covid going on. I understand safety precautions but if I would've known this ahead of time I definitely would not have not gotten the 60 minutes as it is too long to be face down with a mask on. The reflexology was so relaxing. I did a half hour the pressure was perfect. I almost fell asleep at that point. They also had a plastic barrier between you and the therapist. Would come back for the reflexology. Update: i originally gave 4 stars. I had to change it. my back is so sore i couldn't even sleep on it. I feel like I am bruised all under my skin. Unfortunately the pain I'm in overshadows the good things about this place. I go for massages a lot, never been this sore after one. Please don't dig your elbows into people in the future. especially when they asked you to lighten up the pressure several times.

I'll start by saying that I don't have terribly high expectations of chain massage places, so my…read morestandards are already pretty low. A friendly greeting, a table warmer, a passable massage, and I'm pretty happy. Simple. So tell me why this spa decided to hire someone with all the warmth of barbed wire to be the face of their business? Jasmina is incredibly rude and unwelcoming. If I wanted to be treated with contempt by a place I give my money to, I'd skip the spa and book me a water boarding. Why do businesses still think it's ok to have rude people in customer service positions?! It's 2026. And no, I don't want a performative, canned response. I'm not calling a number we both know you won't answer. Besides, it's not me you need to have a talk with. Fix the problem. Or don't. I for one, will not be returning.

From the receptionist to the setting, I felt like I was in Paradise. Super chill atmosphere ! My therapist did a fantastic job.

She welcomed me into her inviting, cove-like space on the 1st floor of Institute for Spiritual Development (right next to Cafe Pierrot). I layed down on the warmly heated massage table fully clothed and she quietly worked her way around my body with a gentle touch, ending with a cranial-sacral massage (a really *amazing* scalp massage). Her touch is absolutely intuitive and I could swear she was reading my mind. She gave some extra attention to a hip that has been bothering me and seemed to take a little longer massaging my neck - it felt so good! I really felt so taken care of and in the talented hands of a healer. While it wasn't a traditional full-body massage, you could've fooled me! I ended the treatment so incredibly relaxed and in a great mood for quite a while. I had a delicious night's sleep that evening and I think I was breathing much better too. Definitely interested in going for a few sessions to see the continual effects of manual lymph drainage. Thought it would be a great idea for anyone with long-term ailments to help clear up their body or an awesome gift certificate to give to the person who has everything.

I struggled this evening with posting about one of the lamest massages I've had in my life…read more Struggle over. I worried that a business struggles to make it in this economy. I worried that perhaps the "therapist" just had an off day. Then it hit me. Who's going to worry about new customers coming here and shelling out $150 for an hour's worth of mediocre tepid substandard whatever this was? I will. What about my endless long work hours that would shock most people, coming to this place for a decent massage to relieve the bad body effects of extreme overwork but walking out with zero effect? I'll worry. Not one knot found, much less kneaded out. Zero reflexology. Faking it over and over. She started off telling me - not asking me, but telling that she doesn't talk "because she listens to the body." Guess her hands were deaf. I've gotten massages for decades here in the U.S. as well as other free countries. This wasn't just a below average massage - the only massage worse than this was a masseuse in her 70's down South that after just running her hands tepidly over my skin here and there, she left after she tried selling me a Bible. They're so charming down there I couldn't get mad. And I had never returned to Bennesere until today. My prior visit, I was subjugated and subjected to -and I'm not kidding you: an hour of unwanted Russian propaganda talking points. You think I'm kidding? I'm not. That massage wasn't great either and I wasn't buying "Ukraine had it coming". So i struggled tonight with whether or not I should just write privately to them but I don't want a third wasted hour offered. It's clear they don't hire quality masseuses. It's clear they don't vet or train these people. And for $150, I don't just expect competence: I deserve it. Never again.
