So I've gotten A LOT of massages over the years from a lot of different massage therapists. Thank goodness I was referred to Sean because Sean is hands down the BEST CMT EVER. Super knowledgeable, and amazing techniques! We have good detailed conversations about my injuries and disability and preferred pressure before the massage. I thought my neck and shoulders had permanent knots, and when they disappeared for the first time with him, I literally cried tears of joy. If you're not going through a doctor or chiropractor, he gives discounts when you book multiple massages at a time. I've referred friends - they say to get the 90 minute special.

I get trying to build a business, but maybe the guy shouldn't offer so many discounted massages if he can't properly service those people. In the future I'll read yelp reviews before purchasing to see if others have the same attitude as this massage place. Here is his comment to someone else "I wish you the best in your search for "Reasonable Deals" and "Cheap Massages". " Obviously the guy is a bit of a dick and thinks providing poor service should be expected if you get a great deal on a groupon. Just a little FYI on running a business... treat your customers all the same and you'll get repeats at a higher price.

My SO and I went to New Era this evening with a 7:30 appointment. Since they aren't on Yelp; I…read morethought I would give them a complimentary review. I did want to say we used a coupon from "Our Neighborhood Shopper" which we receive monthly in the mail. The coupon was $16.99 instead of $20 for the one hour foot massage. We have driven through this Savings Place shopping center before to check out this place which is located on 65th Street about one block East of Stockton Blvd. From the outside; it looks ok but you can't really see inside so it makes it tough to see if they are "legitimate" (which they are completely). The place is actually wider then it looks from the outside; the outside pillar kind of divides the place slightly so there is some room inside :) After arriving, there is an entry lobby area with some massage chairs to the left which can be curtained off from the entry kiosk/cashier. I believe we were the only customers at the time and we were immediately brought to our rooms. It looks like they have 3 to 4 rooms back to back. I was given the first room while my SO received the second room. I sometimes don't like being separated but B2000 Spa on Freeport is the same way. In each room was the recliner/ottoman and a massage table. You get your head, neck, upper back, arms massaged first; then your feet; then legs. After the hot wipedown and dry off; you are transferred to the table where they massage your upper back down to your legs done. My massage person is named Salsa while my SO's is Angelina. I thought the massage was pretty good and I felt relaxed and comfortable here. I also liked getting the back done on the table which is a first for a foot massage. I have received the back portion of the massage (after the feet) done: sitting backwards on the ottoman; laying face down on the recliner and on the portable angled massage chairs you see at the mall. The table was a nice touch! Payment is done after the massage and we tipped our servers after that. A small cup of cool water was given to us too. Location: B (South area but comparable to other foot massage places) Inside: B+ simple but nice surroundings with nice soothing music. I could hear the thump thump music coming from the restaurant next door but it was not too loud. Massage: A I actually had to ask Salsa to lighten it up a little bit on the feet since I can only take so much good pain. Price: A+ Great price at $20 (normally) Personnel: A Nice people. Salsa works 7 days a week :( Please give them a try; I'm pretty sure you will be happy. Now I have to go for the Body massage . . . Check it out! I just also want to say we have been to these different foot massages (in Sac) and New Era ranks among the top of these places. Happy Day Spa (Stockton Blvd and 65th St) Miya Spa (Stockton Blvd) B2000 Spa (Freeport Blvd) Foot Reflexology Expert (Stockton Blvd near McMahon) Healthy Body (Elk Grove; just East of 99)

Came here with my GF and had massage with Angelina after reading the previous review (Ron). We…read morecalled around 2:00 on Saturday and found out there was an opening at 3:00. There was no wait. Very good foot massage for only $20 each person. Actually, it includes scalp massage, shoulder massage, hand massage, legs, back, and a foot soak. The lady spoke Mandarin so it was easy to communicate. She was able to adjust pressure immediately, and the conversation was good. I definitely recommend this place. P.S. The place looks small from the outside but is actually very big and clean inside. It is right next to a liquor store which has "no one under 21" signs plastered on the entrance. At first, I thought the signs referred to the spa, but they were actually for the liquor store. Definitely check out this spa.

She does deep tissue massage, sports massage, functional body work and shiatsu. Stella is a good communicator and listens to my needs. She is happy to chat with you during the session or work in silence. Her studio is conveniently located in Midtown and there's plenty of meter-free street parking on the side streets. Her practice is neat, clean and relaxing. Stella's rates are reasonable and her excellent service is a great value. Best of all, she is a community-minded small business owner and shares her talents with local non-profit organizations.

I found myself here by way of treating my girlfriend (and myself) to a well-deserved massage - We both have busy schedules and I decided to surprise her with a wonderful evening! Estevan is the certified massage therapist who treated us very well, welcomed us with herbal tea, and asked in-detail what kind of massage approach we wanted. I decided on the deep tissue/sports medicine approach because I condition and workout constantly, and he could tell my muscles were sore. Great customer service which leaves you with a great impression. He was very professional, accommodating with the applied pressures, and I felt comfortable with him massaging me. He applied warm stones for the adhesions in my upper traps and recommended that I stretch and hydrate. You just melt with his massages and I definitely will be scheduling another appointment soon. If you want a balance between value and service, go schedule your next massage appointment with Massage Therapy by Estevan Rodriguez. He is the Man!

Even my 16 year old son who sometimes has back pain gets in to see phil, and says it really helps him out as well. Not only is Phil good at what he does, but he's just a great guy.

My back was in pretty bad shape and I had been to the Chiropractor the day before with no luck. I wanted to compete in a Roller Derby bout the upcoming Sunday (this was a Friday) but was barely able to walk. Thai yoga massage combines passive yoga stretching poses with massage. It sort of reminds me of shiatsu, swedish and yoga combined. Regardless, it was amazing, Phil (my massage therapist) was a pro and I was able to skate in Sunday's bout. Needless to say, I've since been back for another one and recommend them to everyone I know.

I will state up front that I went to Derra at La Vita Bella because she is a friend of a friend …read more.. and I thought her story about why she went into skin care was very cool and humbling. (If you want to know, you'll have to go in and ask her!! ;) Anyway, I will first say that the service she provides is very unique based on the product line that she uses -- which is all natural and is based on whole fruits, vegetables and spices. So natural that you want to eat the stuff she puts on your face! (Ok, I did take just a tiny little lick. Delicious.) She gives an awesome facial and head, neck shoulders massage too! The salon is beautiful and relaxing, and you'll never want to leave! Only things that have kept me from going back ... 1. The cost 2. I got charged for an hour and a half treatment when it was only one hour long due to the fact she was not ready when I got there for my appointment. I wanted to say something, but didn't, so in that respect, it's kind of my fault! Maybe I'll go back again and ask her about it ... I'll give an update if I do.

I wish this was a review about Derra's services but unfortunately I didn't even get that far. My…read morefriends bought me a facial for my birthday and I was super excited about the whole thing. However the DAY OF my birthday Derra informs us that she is unable to show up and cancelled. She said she had an injury, which may have been true but she didn't even call. She just sent one of my friends an email at around 1 AM. That was that. So we rescheduled. But she didn't have a number for anyone to call so we had to interact via email. I tried to reschedule with her, but doing so was extremely confusing via email, we couldn't find a time that worked for both of us through the week so I scheduled it for another Saturday. I arranged for a baby sitter for my son, cleared my schedule and got excited for the appointment again. However, once again, THE MORNING OF, Derra emails me and tells me that she still hasn't received payment for the service (even though I confirmed with her 48 hours prior and she said we were set) and therefore I would either have to fork over the $150 myself or reschedule again. At that point I was livid and told her that her services are no longer desired. I am a stay at home mother, I don't get to have many days for me and this was going to be a way for me to finally relax and pamper myself. However due to Derra's mind blowing unprofessionalism and lack of proper communication it just turned into a day of extreme frustration. I am dazzled by how good of an esthetician she is said to be - that's all good and very well. But I honestly think when businesses take advantage of people by offering severely lack-luster customer service it tarnishes the entire experience. I would recommend you save yourself the incredible hassle of dealing with her (for lack of a better word) ghetto customer service and go with a place who has a better knack for dealing with clients.
