I had a right knee replacement about 3 months ago. My body is out of whack. Maybe because from learning how to walk again. While my knee is ok, the right side of my body are sore from shoulder to toe. I had insomnia as the result of it. I returned to this massage place because every time I have serious issues of knots in my body, a therapist named Kim who is working here is able to fix them. Thus I only make appointments with her. She is the BEST. Hence, it took seversl times of sessions and mostly 90 minutes of sessions for 3 weeks as my issues are big but they were so worth it. I was able to sleep 5-6 hours after the first 2 sessions. After the last session I was able to sleep 8 hours! No more insomnia. My body was all sore, tight, and ache-y and Kim knew it. She asked when was the last time I had a massage? Lol. Well more than a year ago! She gave hard massages so beware of the pressure but I love this kind of massage since it will fix my body. I came out as a brand new person. This is the best massage you can get. I am also a 15-years customer of this place. There are so many other massage places but I keep going back to this one when I have issues. The business changed owner but the massages still have the same quality. read more

Absolutely incredibly helpful for my body. I come monthly! Thai Swedish massage- yes the walk on my back as I'm an athlete- long distance swimmer. Love the Thai environment. Every staff member has been an a strong and enduring hands. 90 min massage restores me. Love the stretch. Enjoy - hot tea and water to relax in their Thai lounge. read more

I treated myself on my birthday to a massage and I'm so glad I chose this place! I called to make a reservation a few days before and they were able to get me in. I knew I had a lot of knots from my job and from sitting like a shrimp for the past few years when I was still in school. I went with the combination massage, which combines a traditional Thai and Swedish massage. Hana was SO good at working all my knots out. She asked me what areas I wanted to focus on so I told her my neck and shoulders. She definitely focused on those areas, but also took the time to look for knots elsewhere. I didn't realize I had so much muscle tensions in certain areas until she massaged them out for me. It was so relaxing and I was offered tea afterwards. I walked out of there feeling like a new person! read more

I got a deep tissue massage and it was amazing!! I don't get massages rarely ever so I was a little nervous but everything went so smoothly and my massage therapist was amazing. The space was calm and relaxing. My back really needed to be popped and this service was great for that and relieving deep tension. I will be back! read more

I have been a come to this place since 2021, while back I can get 2-hour massages and currently receiving 90-minute massages. After a fall that caused significant pain and sprains in my back and shoulder , arms, I sought treatment at this facility, where Kim successfully fix my back and shoulder . I would like to extend my gratitude to Judy for help me out I always get massage for 90 minutes I told my Boss and my friends too My families love this place Thank you Kim for your help and fix my back And Judy Thank you so much for help me out read more

Beautiful decor. I did some searching on line before getting a massage anywhere and this place had the most prettiest pics online so I went w this place. I was very happy w my massage. The service was great. They have closed private rooms and they also accommodate couples for massage in the same room. The massage does consist of them walking on your back so if u have breast implants you should definitely let them know before. I would definitely come back it was very relaxing. read more

Amazing service 10/10 would return. I can't wait when I can return. Helped my body relax

WOW! One of the best massages we've had in a while. We've had massages from many parts of the world and I have to say, this place is by far one of my favorite. The entire process was efficient and seamless from scheduling, check-in, the therapist to check-out. Amazing service! They offered us complimentary warm delicious to-go teas after our session. Most importantly, all my knots and aches were virtually gone. The Swedish massage felt relaxing and firm. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for expertise, prompt service, clean environment and a relaxing vibe: A+. We will be back! read more

They charge an extra $5 per person for using a credit card! My friend paid for both of us on her card thinking we'd save $5, but nope -- they still charged the fee for each person. As for the massage itself, the lady only focused on my shoulder and didn't stretch my upper body at all, which was the whole reason I chose the combo. I asked for her to do more twice, because it felt like she was just applying the oil and no pressure. No back massage just the shoulder. The tea afterward was really tasty, but overall, between the price, the service, and the additional credit card fee (who even carries cash nowadays?), I probably won't be coming back. read more

Another great massage! I haven't been here in a while. Amy was awesome! Definitely will be back soon!

I booked this place from a ClassPass discovery (needed to use my credits since I keep forgetting to cancel and now use Equinox) and am SO glad I did! Booked the night before, so there's lots of openings (at least on weekdays) MASSEUSE: Got Diane and think she was really good (though wish she applied just a TAD more pressure in some spots - but sometimes I feel bad asking when they're a little older, so that's my fault). I have really tight shoulders/back from all the deskwork and exercising/not enough massages regularly, and she spent SO much time trying to get the knots out. VIBES: The place was one of the nicest (more authentic feeling) massage places I've seen outside of Asia; they REALLY put in thought to create the ambience and it smells so good! Rooms are dimly lit and have nice decorations. Would come back, definitely! Think it's $65/hour if you're paying cash then $70/card. Parking lot available so don't have to pay for parking read more

Enjoyed my deep tissue massage. Felt so relax after. Definitely coming back. I really like the stretching, helps me for I am so tight and I'm so stiff as a board. Thank you! read more

I don't understand all these great reviews. I gave this place three tries before writing a review. The first massage I got was with Key/Kay not entirely sure, and she had the worst attitude. Upon her arrival she threw her oil bottle on the massage bed aggressively. Then when I asked her for more pressure since she didn't check with me my preference, she gave me an attitude. It was a very unpleasant experience and I wanted to end the session early. After that I came back twice and all three times the massage was just not good. The last two ladies were very nice and sweet but the technique was so weird. One of the lady even told me she's not specialize in Swedish massage - but I booked a Swedish massage so why would I got assigned someone who was not specialized in the massage I requested? I wanted to like this place but it's not working out. I don't know about others who got the post massage refreshment but I was never offered. read more

I've already raved about the establishment now I would like to rave about someone specific, DD. Because of some major injuries, I begin seeing DD regularly. I am not exaggerating when I say this woman has changed my life. I encourage you to find a masseuse with a style that you really enjoy and develop a relationship. DD is able to use her strong hands for a relief, firm and deep massage. Any athletes with any tightness I would highly recommend. She keeps a pulse on the pressure and is communicative if it seems like too much. I've had massages all over the world and this one I keep coming back to. I literally leave feeling like a King. And then, as far as the rest of the establishment, everything is super clean and professional. Everyone is super friendly and there's always some fresh tea or water as the endorphins come down. I have seen a few of the other masseuses as well, all of my massages were definitely good just not for me. Deep tissue Thai massage . The best. read more

Diane must be a graduate of X-Men Institute for Gifted People because she's got MRI vision. She knew exactly where the tightness was on my body without me saying anything. The pressure was superb and she made it a point to work on the places that needed it the most rather than just going through the same protocol for everyone. I always love the service here from the quick appointment process to the massage itself. read more

The worst experience I have ever had...with no accountability from manager or owner!! I booked a body scrub here, the beginning was a massage, it was the worst massage I have ever had, then came the "scrub" the girl never scrubbed the front of my body, only the back, and I wouldn't even consider it a scrub, it was so beyond lackluster, the point of a scrub is to exfoliate, there was no exfoliation. She proceeded to use ice cold towels and water to get the scrub off and then threw the wet towel on the bed next to me so I essentially was laying on a wet sheet. When I asked for warm towels, the first towel was fine, the second towel was scalding HOT. She threw it on my lower back I jumped up and screamed it was so hot, I was on the verge of tears it was so painful. She literally burnt my back. I explained to the manager everything that happened and I still paid the $90. There was no apology given and i requested a call from the owner which I never received. I received a scrub here a year ago and it was great, that's why I came back. Outrageous that the owner has not taken accountability for this. Very disappointing!!!! read more

Always great service and they're accommodating with scheduling. This is one of our go-to spots!

I had an amazing experience! I'm on my feet all day at work, so I'm constantly dealing with soreness, and I'm also a restless sleeper, which leaves my neck in pain. This visit relieved all of my issues! The staff was incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere was so welcoming and beautiful. The space was spotless, too. They worked wonders on the knots in my back. My boyfriend and I tipped 30% because they truly deserved it. I will definitely be returning! 5 STARS! :) read more

I saw god haha. Kidding. But actually the Thai ladies who work here are truly dedicated to humbling you and your poor office posture. I came in here with a weird chest tightness (not a heart attack lol I'm under 30). It was so tight I couldn't breathe properly and it hurt to sneeze. Apparently this was due to a terrible knot in my back and shoulder. After working on me for an hour, my assigned masseuse patted me on the back and I sat up able to breathe again. CRAZY. Truly there's something about middle aged Asian ladies finding all your knots that's healing. Afterwards they gave us this delicious and soothing longan tea. I ended up buying a few packs to brew at home. This is by far my FAVORITE massage place in OC. They offer Thai, Swedish, combo, deep tissue, sports, and one one other one I can't remember. Prices are standard around $60-$70. By the way, the decor is absolutely beautiful. Traditional Thai architecture is what it seems like and nice private and dark rooms. Tip: call a day in advance to reserve a spot Parking: free lot but limited when it's busy Seating: chairs in lobby Wifi: no Payment: accepts cash and card but cash is cheaper Vibe: traditional Thai massage Dress code: casual read more

The service was fantastic! Clean, calm and the staff was considerate and attentive. I got a deep tissue massage and it was amazing. Hannah did a great job! Be warned, this is not a relaxing massage. I was stretched and manipulated a lot. Hannah was communicating the whole time about the pressure and stretching. I left feeling better than I have ever felt after a massage. I will definitely be back. read more

Absolutely amazing! Highly recommend, clean, high quality, exceptional Thai massage. I've had many massages and this is the best Thai massage outside of Thailand. read more

I had the lowest quality massage of my life. The girl didn't even do the same thing on both sides of my body, who needs to leave a massage feeling uneven. Even the head massage was poor. More training & quality control is needed. If you go there & get a decent massage, be sure to get the name of the person & request them, don't just take anyone. Last year I had a good experience, but will never return. read more

Haven't had a better thai massage than this one in a long time. You know how you go to different chiropractors, massage parlors, or sports therapists? I went it cause my sciatica what inflamed like crazy and my over night shifts worked me good. Im a heavier set guy, but K or Kay really pushed me to my stretching limit and it felt great. I literally walked out with less pain than I have been dealing with my lower back for years. She is really great at her craft targeting key pressure points, so you are really going to feel it if you ask for it. Im the kind of person who needs to for lack of better words need to be handled with force with the kind of weight I pull around. I plan to return multiple times for as long as she is working there. read more

I love this place! I've been coming here for a few years now, and it never disappoints! I actually feel like these lady's are getting better each time I come! Today I booked on ClassPass since I had extra credits in my account which was a good option, but you do get more bang for your buck when you pay cash. The parking can sometimes be tricky but there are spots in the back of the building. Today I got my service done by Kay, and I left drooling! read more

Seriously I missed this massage the most in this pandemic, much more than eating at restaurants or meeting people. Lol. This made my 2 times vaccinations so so worth it. I was cautious going in but felt better with the way they are handling the precautions. Staff wore masks all through the session. I also wore my mask during the session. I also found out my therapist was vaccinated. My body was all sore, tight, and ache-y and my therapist knew it. She asked when was the last time I had a massage? Lol. Well more than a year ago! I came out as a brand new person. Best Thai massage you can get. I am also a 10-year customer of this place. The business changed owner but the massages still have the same quality. read more

I loved this place until the treatment I received in Sept 2024. My husband and I had massages in August, which we both enjoyed. We went back in Sept (different masseuses from August) for our anniversary and both of us had two-hour massages. My husband enjoyed his massage, and mine was okay. We tipped $20.00 to each masseuse and were called CHEAP by the masseuses. We didn't understand. When we went to the front, we saw a menu of preferred tips by services. The minimum we were to tip according to the menu for our service was $40.00 per masseuse. We were going to adjust and give an additional $20.00 for a total of $40.00, but after being called cheap twice, we did not and will not return. Tipping culture is OUT. OF. CONTROL. read more

Massages are always great. They walk on your back for almost all the massages. You can request that they don't do that too.

1 hour Swedish massage--very relaxing and so good! We got a couples massage and will definitely return!

This is truly a hidden gem. It's located in an unassuming strip mall and is quite plain from the outside , but when you enter you are enveloped in a richly decorated lobby area filled with pretty and ornate decor. They are great at listening to your needs , then customizing your massage. I wanted a deep tissue / Swedish massage . The therapist was thorough and really got to the core of my many knots. She kept checking if the pressure was too much at any point since it was deep tissue with a firm touch. It would have been nice to include a bottle of water after. That was the only thing missing. After an intense massage , it's important to drink a lot of water. I would return and I would highly recommend it here to anyone who needs a good massage ! read more
