In a private room, the massage is a set routine with no room for personalization. With English at a minimum, there is no way to explain to work on troubled areas. Lighting is very dim and music is soft. In the same room, the facial takes place with the same person, I think. It's difficult to tell with the dim lighting. During the facial one of the products they used was very oily and it got into my eyes. Additionally, the mask product was still stuck to the sides of my face and nose. When I arrived home, I had to get a warm towel to try to extract the oil from my eyes and scrub the mask from my face. Whatever they use, it's tenacious as it took some scrubbing to remove. While the massage is a standard non-personalized routine, I would return for the massage as the prices are attractive. However, I am unable to recommend the facial due to the application and products that are used. With cash, there is a small discount.

Their approach goes far beyond quick fixes--they truly understand sports therapy, root-cause healing, and long-term mobility.

Seeing how their gentle, specialized care benefits my children--and how much our entire family has thrived under their guidance--has made the team at Thrive an indispensable part of our lives. If you are looking for practitioners who are knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely invested in your family's health, look no further. Highly recommended!

I called about an hour prior to the time I wanted and they gave me a slot. I opted for a 90 minutes Thai massage. It was more like the regular chinese massage but there were some stretching done. They use oil to massage my back and wiped it off with hot towel after. The masseuse had good strength and pressure points which I appreciate. You get slightly lower rates if you pay with cash. Room and restroom were clean and the music was not loud. Overall, I had a good experience getting a massage here.

Before I could even get dressed, I was repeatedly asked how much I was going to tip and was told the tip had to be paid in cash. I had actually planned on leaving a generous tip, but being pressured and demanded to tip immediately changed that. Oh, and let's not forget that they also require you to pay for the massage upfront before the service even begins. When I questioned why I was being pressured over a tip, the employee tried to block the door and insisted that every customer is required to tip. Tipping should be voluntary, and situations like this make the overall experience very uncomfortable. Tipping culture is getting completely out of control, especially at some of these massage parlors.

The towels smelled clean and the place seemed okay overall. However, I do feel the massage could have focused more on my tension areas I wish I had spoken up more about that. What really made my experience negative was the situation with the tip. I left a $20 tip, and the owner approached me saying there were three people and that I should tip more. That made me very uncomfortable. Tipping should be optional and based on the customer's experience, not something you are pressured into. If I had loved the massage, I would have gladly tipped more on my own. But being asked for more like that completely ruined it for me, and I will not be returning. Just a heads-up for others: be prepared to be asked for a higher tip, and the environment did not feel very family-friendly, with women wearing very short dresses.

I had this shoulder pain from a strained muscle. I decided to get it massaged. Before I walked in,…read moreone of the guys took me in. I told him an hour of full body and he said the Combo was better. The combo just adds the foot massage. Since reflexology believes that the foot has pressure points in different parts of the body, I decided to do it. During the full body massage, I told him I want it stronger, he said yes, but it only lasted for 10 minutes. It seemed that he worked on my back for most of the time as he did the same routine twice. I wish there was more on my neck and head. He also spent a short time on my legs. In the foot massage, it seemed more like a foot rub. Not sure why there was a lot of emphasis on my toes. Of course what they do is try to get more minutes out of you during the massage session. What I should have done was tell them 45 minutes to get the hour. Overall: Pass on this place. Although some masseuses differ, my first experience gave me a lasting negative impression. There are better places

The rooms are equipped with relaxing music, adjustable lighting, and a warm massage table. There are also cubies for you to place your items and hooks for your clothes. There is also a robe in case you need to step out during the massage. Bathroom is very clean and the space was enjoyable. 5/5 Service: I got the 60 min Swedish massage and I should have booked for at least 90 minutes! They have you fill out a form on areas that you would like to work on and she did just that. She was phenomenal at locating the exact problem areas I had circled and this was by far the best massage I have ever had. I felt so amazing that I ended up purchasing a gift-card so I could go for the rest of the year! 5/5 FYI $500+ get 10% off, $300+ get 50% off which is a really good deal! 5.5/5 would recommend!

Unfortunately, the customer service I received over the phone was disappointing. I called because I was interested in becoming a new client and wanted to schedule an appointment. I greeted the receptionist when she answered, but there was no greeting in return. I explained that I was calling to schedule a new-client appointment, and her immediate response was, "OK, what date are you looking at?" I then asked what the schedule looked like, but rather than answering my question, she continued asking what specific days I was looking for. She also interrupted me while I was speaking. The issue was not necessarily the question she asked, but the tone and manner in which they were communicated. It came across as very abrupt, dismissive, and as though assisting me was an inconvenience. At one point, she said, "We are open 7 days a week, so what days are you looking at?" Again, it was the tone and delivery that made the interaction feel unprofessional. At that point, I decided not to move forward with scheduling an appointment and chose to look elsewhere. I understand that everyone can have a busy day, but when someone is calling as a potential new client, a basic level of courtesy and professionalism can make a big difference. Given the positive reviews I had seen, I was expecting a much better first impression.

We first discovered these places in socal where they are only $15 for an entire hour of massages. Royal Health Spa is pretty good though, especially in the bay, $20 special for a food massage.. It has been advertised as this grand special for quite awhile. I've been here 3 times and I really think it depends on who you get... I'm sorry I never ask for names... but in my experience the guy that does the massages is better... I had one lady who actually made it painful.. like instead of just massaging my head she was digging her nails in and scratching my head... it really hurt.. she was also chit chatting away with the woman next to me. The man that does massages asked how much pressure I wanted and it was very relaxing. I had just had a hike the day before and definitely needed the relaxation. It is conveniently located next to the gym (which is how we discovered it). The place is very clean and this is a more legit massage than the ones at the mall for a cheap price. We recently brought our mom here for mother's day and upon leaving they gave each of us a boutonniere.. which i thought was very kind. When I'm looking for a cheap massage in the bay this is the place to be.

I visited Serentiy Day Spa in the early afternoon on a weekday for the first time and the whole…read moreprocess was very smooth - I called them in the morning to make a booking, showed up 5 minutes early, filled out a short form, paid the massage fee and I was good to go. A few things to note here - 1. You do not tip upfront. Your initial payment is only for the base massage rate. You tip after your massage. They have a sign right next to the front desk which basically encourages you to tip more (1 thumbs up - 20% tip, 2 thumbs up - 25% tip, 3 thumbs up - 30% tip). Don't feel pressured because of that sign. It's better if you carry cash for the tip. They prefer it that way because you give the tip directly to your masseuse. 2. The short form you fill out lets you provide information like pressure level, sore points to focus on during the massage and any injuries that the masseuse needs to be aware of. This is very helpful in case there is a language barrier. The front desk lady was really nice and friendly. And I wasn't pressured into tipping a certain amount which is great. I opted for the Swedish massage with back walking. The rate was very reasonable and the massage was well worth the price. You can find all the rates on their website. My masseuse was quite good. I have had back walking experience in the past but this one was a little different (and more intense). My masseuse used her heels and the toes to dig into my back to loosen it before the oil massage. It was maybe 5 - 10 minutes long but there were times when I definitely struggled to breathe. This part was definitely not relaxing but it's on me. I could have asked them to lower the intensity/pressure more but I thought that they were already doing the lowest pressure because I had mentioned it in the form that I filled out. My masseuse engaged me in a few conversations during the massage. I was okay with it but I can see how that can hinder the overall experience for folks who enjoy their massage in a more quiet and peaceful setting. There wasn't any communication barrier so I was able to ask my masseuse to lower the intensity for the oil massage which was great. Their massage tables are heated but you can ask them to turn it off if it gets too hot. Unlike other massage places, this spa didn't have water or tea after the massage was over (or at least I didn't see/get any) but that's fine. Overall it was a good experience.
