Amazing massage, from scalp to toe! If my hair doesn't grow 6 inches from all that scalp stimulation it'll be beyond me. The tea and chocolate at the end is such a nice touch. read more

I wanted to like this place more than I did. I think mainly because I switched my massage treatment to shiatsu from combo and it either wasn't communicated or noted because I didn't want them to use forearm or elbows. She was definitely using forearm. I didn't even smell any of the essential oils they said they would use. I was also a little bothered by them leaving the door cracked. It is a very cute and calming place. It was clean. The bathroom was clean. They definitely accommodated us a lot by allowing us in early. However, I don't think I'd return. read more

I never leave reviews. But wow, thank you. I had Nana, and she was the best massage I've had in Pasadena. There's other great places in Pasadena but this is #1 for me now. read more

I was referred by my doctors office for the pain I was having to this massage place. Honestly 100/10. I had a massage by AMY. They suggested I do a Japanese Shiastu which is mostly hand, and finger points to help with the release of my shoulder and neck pain. I had low expectations because I wasn't feeling good but this massage was easily the best one I ever had. She really took her time and did a true full body massage. There's plenty of street parking. The building can be a little noisy but the massage, the music and heated bed will drown it out. Definitely will be back read more

Highly recommend this establishment. The staff is incredibly polite and thoughtful. Was recommended this business by my wife's best friend to take my wife on a couple's massage for her birthday. She absolutely loved it! Now, I'm writing this review for 5-stars as she booked a couples massage for my birthday! Haha read more

My bf brought me here for a birthday massage and it was such a relaxing experience! The spa felt cozy and had a gentle, calming vibe. We were able to book a same-day reservation. We chose the Japanese Shiatsu Therapeutic Treatment for a one-hour couple's massage, and Lisa and Kelly did an amazing job. They ended the session with tea and treats, which was the perfect touch. read more

This is our go-to massage place in Pasadena. It is clean and well managed. My husband and I always do the 90 minute combo massages and the massages are nice and strong! Everyone is super nice and we appreciate the service. we've been coming here for a couple of years and love the consistency. You can pay by regular means or by Venmo. There is parking available in the back or you can find street parking out front for free. read more

Had one of the best massages of my life! Went for a 90 min combo which I highly recommend. Elsa was fabulous, I highly recommend her. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Such a really cute place. I'll definitely be back. read more

I took my mom here for her first ever massage on her 60th birthday, and we loved it! We did the couples' massage. Our masseuses were so kind and professional, and very responsive to our few requests. The beautiful old building was was very thoughtfully designed in a modern Japanese style, and the complementary tea and chocolate. We would definitely come back! read more

I was excited to discover this massage place that advertises shiatsu massage. I called to make an appointment. The person on the phone was professional and she scheduled me for a shiatsu massage at my preferred date and time. I reviewed the website before arriving and read that parking was available in the lot behind the building, and a few specifically numbered spots were designated for its patrons. I arrived to the lot only to discover some jerk in one of the designated spots parked over the line, making the already small space impossible to park in. I drove off the lot and eventually found street parking. No big deal. When I entered the store, I was greeted by the reception woman who showed me to my room. She confirmed the service and instructed me to remove my clothes, but to keep my underwear on. The massage therapist entered and began a 90 min massage. She was professional and the massage was fine, but it was not shiatsu. Unlike short finger strokes on pressure points that I would expect a shiatsu massage to be, the therapist had long strokes akin to those when giving Swedish massages. The pressure good and she was professional, but the service was not a shiatsu massage. After I changed and opened the door to the room, the therapist was there and I tipped her with cash. She said, in Mandarin Chinese, to the reception woman that I tipped in cash. I made my payment and left in time to move my car from the two hour parking spot. Overall, the massage itself was not terrible and I appreciated the efforts to massage my glutes when most therapists would avoid the area. I did not get a foot or a palm massage, which I thought would be standard, even if for a minute or two. She gave me a 30 second scalp massage and a 30 second upper face massage, but did not touch the lower half of my face, my chin, or my collar/decollete area. Overall, the experience was ok, but I don't think I will return. read more

The ambiance is unbeatable. Had a wonderfully relaxing massage. They specialize in both swedish and deep tissue. Will come back in a heartbeat read more

Went for a couple massage and it was amazing. Clean space, friendly atmosphere, and great staff. Felt relaxed and recharged.

4.5 but rounding up. I made an appointment for 2 people and showed up slightly early. We were welcomed by the owner/manager who allowed us to be inside while she was opening up. She was very friendly and nice. We were lead into a nice, clean, and modern room for 2 upstairs. The massage tables were equipped with built-in warmers! I took my bestie here and we both got under the sheets of our respective tables. The room maintained its temperature effortlessly. We each chose our massage oils and had the tuina combo massage. My massage therapist was very communicative and checked in with me about the pressure. I know I was stiff and have a hard time letting loose, since I haven't had a massage in a long time. Overall, 60 minutes flew by and she just figured out where I was mostly knotted and stiff. She focused on those areas and did everything from scalp to my toes. For a price of $175 (before tip) for 2 people for 60 minutes, it's a steal. Yes she got on the table to maneuver me for extra stretching and hit the bigger muscles on my back, so kudos to her for working that hard. I will return for quarterly maintenance. I hope they keep it up, because it's hard to find a good massage place with a nice ambiance that's reasonably priced. This is not the typical day spa where you get to lounge around after your service. There are no amenities to do so, and that's okay given the prices for the massages. read more

I've booked a shiatsu massage for my husband here twice with Amy and Tina. Both times he really enjoyed the massage. Would definitely recommend! read more

Great spot for a relaxing massage! We came in for a couples massage and both of us walked out feeling so much better. The place was clean and had a calm, welcoming vibe. The front desk lady was super nice and made us feel right at home. The massages were solid just the right pressure and very relaxing. Definitely coming back next time we need to unwind. read more

Loved the massage here. Whole experience was positive from start to finish. Definitely would return!

This is the first time I bring my wife as her birthday surprise and we both love it so much! Highly recommended

Excellent service. Very clean environment and kind staff. I went in feeling very tense and carrying a lot of pain that I'd gotten used to, but after today's session I realized I need to make this part of my routine more often. I left feeling far more relaxed and with much less tension. read more

Such a tranquil place tucked away in Pasadena. Highly recommend this place. We got the couples massage and the massage was perfectly tailored to us, our knots and tension areas. They checked on us multiple times to make sure we were comfortable and strength level was good. Def will come back! read more

I had a really excellent experience here and would highly recommend them! It was very easy to make an appointment with the front desk. They were ready for me as soon as I arrived. The space is small and intimate, warmly lit and very clean. The massage room is private and quiet. My masseuse was fantastic and attentive, and checked in with me often to see how I was doing. The 90 minite shiatsu massage is listed as $130 on their website but I was charged $145, so maybe that info is outdated. It was very convenient to be able to pay with Venmo at the front desk. Overall a really fantastic and relaxing experience. read more

I just came back from Japan trip last month. Really need a shiatsu massage for my back and neck which helped me a lot while I was traveling in kyoto. I know this place will take care of me as usual. Wow! After many years visit this place, they are as great as always. I can feel that they really CARE about you. Everyone here are very professional, kind and welcoming especially Julie. I recommended this place to all my friends and family. Thank you shiatsu ! read more

Shiatsu of Pasadena - I love howe they always change their seasonal decor in this facility, very tranquil - Day Spas Near Me - Pasadena, California

Fantastic massage here at Shiatsu of Pasadena. I've actually been in the past a few times, once by myself and once for a couples massage, but I went recently after a few weeks (months? Years?) of life stress and exercise-related muscle tension finally built up. My masseuse was Tina, and she did an extraordinary job and working out my super tight calf muscles and upper back. Somehow both invigorating and relaxing, and I appreciate that she did not follow a really standard massage pattern but rather focused on the areas of my musculature that needed the most help. And, I'm not one to get cold extremely easily, but I also really enjoyed that the massage bed was heated; so comfy. Easy parking too on Green Street, very fair prices, and a nice little tea + chocolate afterwards. Will happily return! read more

We really enjoyed the couple massage from Lisa and Kelly. The place is very clean. The service is professional and caring. Totally recommend it. Will come back again when we are in the area. read more

Just received the most amazing massage at Shiatsu of Pasadena! Lisa knew exactly the right amount of pressure for the 60 minute Signature Chinese Tuina & Shiatsu Combination. My friend also had the same massage with Wendy and said her massage was incredible also! The Tea & Chocolate was wonderful and we will both return for a 90 minute next time! read more

Came in for a couples massage and they fit us in last minute for our anniversary - absolutely amazing!!! The location is peaceful and calm, very spa-like, and the service was fantastic from both the reception and the two ladies who worked on us. The room was private and low-lit so it was exactly what we were hoping for but very well priced compared to some other places in the area. The massage itself was firm but very relaxing and invigorating! They asked us our preference and really took their time so we didn't feel like anything was rushed (we booked the 60 min combo massage with CBD oil). We will definitely be back!!! read more

We've never tried Shiatsu style massage and this was a great introduction to it. Since it focuses more on specific pressure points instead of only large muscles, I felt more refreshed and relaxed after compared to when I've had Swedish style massages. We came here for a 90 min couple's massage as a birthday gift, and it was really fairly priced for a massage of this quality and duration in the Pasadena area. read more

LOVE this place. As a massage therapist it's hard to find someone intuitive and knowledgeable and you can find both in Tina. She is a true healer read more

A hidden gem. Big thank you to my masseuse Tina, who released a lot of tight muscles in my upper back and neck. She applies just the right amount of pressure and spends enough time in each area, and will adjust as needed. Book the 90 min sesh if you can, that way you can get deeper work done, without rushing :) read more

My 90 minute massage had me feeling like a whole new person. It was just the perfect amount of strength and softness. If you come you won't regret it! read more

Shiatsu of Pasadena - Sweet treat at the end of the - Day Spas Near Me - Pasadena, California

My besties treated me to a 90 minute Signature Chinese Tuina & Shiatsu Combination Package. I picked the Provenca French Lavender as my massage oil. And it also came with a complimentary hot stone treatment too (only good for 90 minute massages). Amy was my masseuse and she was awesome. This was the best massage I had ever had! The place itself is very clean and calming. Our receptionist gave us chocolates and green tea after. She was also very accomodating and nice. Fun fact about this buliding is that Albert Einstein's office is at the top floor. Will definitely come back again! read more

We've been here 2x and this was our 3rd. It's been a few months. It used to be exceptional. Not sure if they've hired new people but this time was sadly disappointing for $240. Will not be back. read more

My girlfriend and I had a couples massage. Our masseuse was Amy and Wendy. It was a good experience. I loved the ambience and decor in the waiting area. We were looking for a local massage spot since we just got back from a long airplane ride from the Philippines. At first it was a bit hard on my back specifically the whole spine area but the massage Wendy kindly asked me if I wanted it light and I said yes. Overall it was good and not horrible. My girlfriend and I both got the Royal CBD hemp oil for 60 minutes each and was $200 overall not bad of the price of two. The oil was very much relaxing to our body. read more
