As a holistic nurse and integrative health professional, I've experienced a lot of bodywork--and my session with Mr. Yang was truly one of the best. Yes, the massage studio is pretty bare-bones, and English isn't widely spoken, but true healing transcends language and fancy environments. Mr. Yang's intuitive touch and skilled technique worked through my muscle tension with expert trigger point release and followed with a hot stone oil massage that melted me into total relaxation. I walked in skeptical and walked out feeling like a new person. Also, for those wondering about the smoke concerns mentioned in other reviews--during my visit, neither his hands nor his clothes smelled like smoke. And honestly, even if they had, his skill far outweighs any minor distraction. If I lived in LA, I'd be a weekly regular. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town. Thank you, Mr. Yang, for your incredible healing work. read more

Call them numerous times specifying that I needed an appointment exactly at 2:30 and I needed to be gone out of their location at three. So when I get there at 2:30, they tell me 10 more minutes. All they had to do was say they didn't have time available so I could've went and got food or lunch or literally anything else besides wasting my time doing this. read more

Very good female masseuse. 60 minute, and she used hot stones. Clean, friendly staff. This spa is improvement over last one that had all customers in one room. spaces are divided by curtains, giving some sense of privacy. Only distraction was noise behind the curtain next to me with another customer. read more

I CALLED and made an appointment. And they said yes. I get there and they said, oh, can you come back in an hour??? We're busy. Umm....I don't live next door to you. So no. I'm not waiting around for an hour. I drove 20 minutes. All i got was a sorry. And that was it. No compensation for my time or a discount. BE PROFESSIONAL. read more

Wow I feel so relaxed after leaving my appointment! I booked a couples massage and me and my gf are both very satisfied- I feel Reset and refreshed , definitely recommend @xrayvisionn read more

went in today for a 60 min massage thinking id treat my self to some relaxation and walked out in pain allan the guy who gave me the massage was so rough and heavy handed I kept repeating softer to the point where i mentioned to him you're a strong man please be more soft i walked out of there in pain and have pain in my shoulders and neck the hot stones were also left to sit on my back and were still extremely hot i still tipped and paid for the service but i don't recommend this place probably the most uncomfortable and painful massage i ever received 2/10 stars the I should have just stuck to the corner spa HAPPY FEET instead of trying to try something new read more

OK, so I was a little scared because I think some of you people who get on this app and get massages think that when you pay under a certain amount of money you're still expecting to get the Ritz-Carlton experience and what you have to realize is that you're not you didn't pay over 100 or more dollars to get a 30 minute to an hour massage so why are you expecting The red carpet and the Nobu experience you get what you paid for and if you're getting these massages off a Groupon and you're getting a discount what are you complaining for? You're not gonna get the most extravagant massage but it's gonna be damn good and it's gonna be worth it, stop complaining about things if you want five star experience then go pay the $250 and get the private room somewhere the guy who did my massage today was James he was great. I think he could have went a little harder on me, but it still got the knots that I had in my shoulders out perfectly. He was effing amazing on my feet and my legs like I gave him a tip as much as my massage was because he was so amazing on my feet and I so I carry a lot of weight in my feet and he got every single knot and pain and I've had in my feet from cooking for my mother-in-law's funeral the past week , I will definitely be back read more

Zen Foot Spa - I had a lump here and it's gone now Combo (foot And Body) - Beauty & Spas Near Me - Culver City, California

If you know who to ask for and what massage you want, this place is a gem. Just be ready to make a couple efforts to communicate. If you have patience, you will be well rewarded. Also, tip big and you will not regret! read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!! Let me preface this by saying- I have gotten enough massages in my life to know what is normal and what is not. The man who massaged me for 30 minutes fully M*LESTED me and I was completely shocked and scared that I was frozen the entire time. Even the times that he was "massaging" the correct parts of my body he did a terrible job and continued to only focus on the parts he SHOULD NOT EVEN GO NEAR!!! I am so disgusted and I know there is nothing I can do about it. After looking at the laws around what is acceptable in a massage, he did everything completely wrong. I do not even want to describe what he did because I am so disgusted and ashamed. Payed $50 (30 minutes-ridiculous for such a terrible place) to get s*xually assaulted. I have payed $40 for really good 60 minute massages without getting assaulted. DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!!! read more

Hey I'm impressed! , I got a 30 minute amazing foot massage for only $19.99 I am usually Soo ticklish on my feet but the guy was so good he managed to not even make me flinch with tickle I honestly died it was so good . I will be back Frank read more

Don't miss to Watch the GIF Consider this 1 star as -5 star. If you are not prepared to give a hefty amount of TIP don't go here. They are absolutely standard less and rude if they are not happy with the tip. I had foot massage worth of $20 not to mention massage was not really professional they just go hard in the senseless procedure they have no clue how to handle a muscle. They don't speak English and talk a lot and in the middle, they just disappear for minutes. After the massage, I have paid 25 percent of the tip and I was leaving and this person who did massage to me walks out so mad follow me and shows me $5 bill with ridiculous expression. That was the moment where I was scared and felt unsafe. Seriously, guys and girls, this place goes crazy beyond stupidity. Enough for me. I will never step into this massage place neither recommend. Don't go here and regret it later. Watch the GIF. read more

Zen Foot Spa - Beauty & Spas Near Me - Culver City, California

Excellent massage, lovely people and relax and vibe. $30 Plus a nice tip gets you a thorough full body massage Ask for Liu or Cindy Definitely going back here. read more

Toa was very friendly welcoming me. Angela gave me one of the best massage ever! Affordable $40 for 60 foot and body massage!

Have come here many times, and they are sooooo worth the price. It's not bougie at all, and you share a common space with others divided by sectioned-off curtains and sometimes you'll get a person snoring one over next to you cause the massages are so good, but for the price, you really can't complain. Even though I only get the foot massage, they literally still work your entire body from face, ears, scalp, down to your arms, hands, legs, feet--why, duh, and then your back and even butt. The hour goes by too fast cause it's so good and relaxing. Plus, they're super accommodating if you want to request for different pressures. Keep in mind that there can be a language barrier depending on the masseuse but simple requests should be easily accommodated. Get a stamp card too if you plan on coming here often. After you the 10th massage, you get a free one. read more

Went there this past weekend for a couples massage with my fiance for some much needed self-care and relaxation. It was not what we expected at all! As mentioned earlier in Yelp, the massages were a complete joke. The man that massaged me wasn't very good at all. There was no focus whatsoever. He was very fast, hard and repetitive with his movements. DIdn't seem like he had experience at all and instead of relaxing me, I was stressed. read more

This place is good. A little tough to communicate but they know how to get the kinks out! We will for sure be coming back whenever we are in LA. Tom (NF), Mike Chen (did me) and Anna (SF) are all really good. I am doing this review as much for us to remember it (and who) as for them. read more

WARNING: SEXUAL ASSAULT I received a massage from Tom today who unfortunately thought he could get away with trying to touch my private areas. Completely unacceptable, unprofessional, and disgusting excuse for a "healing experience." Find practitioners with integrity. Steer clear of this place. Plus it fucking smells. read more

I made an appointment over the phone earlier & I got a call back when I was 10 minutes away, the girl asked me if was on my way & replied yes. So I arrive on time & this man asked me if I called & I said yes I have a 5:30pm appointment. The man starts speaking in his language to somebody in the back, suddenly a girl appears asking me do I want a male masseuse, I said no I want a female, she then asked me why I didn't ask for a female, I said I didn't think I had too! Upon making my appointment the girl should have asked me what masseuse I preferred ! They were unapologetic & unprofessional! PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY WITH THIS TRASH HOLE! They don't even deserve 1 star! read more

First time massage by not elbow. Usually these kind of massage place use elbows and so painful to me. I thought foot massage is only foot but they do massage head to toe and only $30 . They take cash or Venmo. I definitely come back read more

I've come to this place for over 10 years. And I haven't been here in over a year. And it's under new management and it's just not the same. The quality of the massages that I got today is just not the same maybe because the gentleman's a little older in age and he doesn't have the strength anymore. Less attention to detail not enough pressure in the massages. The lady before me complained about not being happy with her massage and not leaving a tip. I got the same person. And I completely agree with her I hope for the best. I just won't be coming back here anymore. The one on Centinela Is the one that I will continue to go to I wish them the best. A little frustrating I know you ask questions but no one understands you. They need someone who could speak and understand English. read more

No appointment necessary, they took us in within 10 minutes of calling. Great little massage if you're in the area. I got the AccuPressure Massage which included my entire back, legs, arms, neck, head, and face. This package focused mainly on my back with and oil rub down. Thoroughly enjoyed the massage, however, they don't speak English well so don't try to have a full blown conversation with them. They were a bit confused when we tipped them cash individually. Not giving them a 5 star rating because the women kept talking to each other during the massage which was distracting. read more

Went there today, and if I was alone I would have walk right out after my massage started. The guy doing my boyfriend's massage, was burping nonstop. It was so gross! No manners at all! Zero class! He also also tossing my boyfriend around (like, legs, hands), with no professionalism. Regarding my massage, I was very clear that i wanted a foot massage that included hands and shoulder. And while I didn't mind to pay for a combo, which I did, I didn't want anyone touching my back. Took like, 10 minutes for the guy to understand that, but during the whole 60 min he kept asking! While my foot massage was great, my hands were awful. So many points of my hands he could touch, and he did a basic massage, that I could have done myself. Shoulders too! He keeping doing something on my head, that is far from a massage, and even my hairdresser does it better. I won't come back here, and you shouldn't also. Stay away from this place! read more

Pretty good massage for a great price but I do wish that the masseuses and the people at the front would be quieter and more respectful of the people trying to relax. During my massage at Zen, there seemed to be some kind of dispute going on at the front. It was loud and frustrating. My masseuse ending up leaving to try to resolve it since she actually spoke English. She came back and apologized for leaving. The rest of my massage was pretty good. When we left to pay, we gave each masseuse a $5 tip which was a 25% tip... after all each massage was only $20 (part of the appeal of this place). Our masseuse insisted if not demanded that we gave them at least a $10 tip each... a 50% tip!!! This is completely unheard of.. since when is tip required and since when do they demand the quantity of the tip?! Especially since my massage was interrupted by some rude and disrespectful people. read more

First of all, the manager/owner was very nice and accommodating. We were gonna buy groupon but went in without buying one and she gave us that price. However, the massage was a complete joke. I could have done a better job. People say you get what you pay for but this wasnt even worth half of what i paid for. She put no effort and had zero skills. My husband also said the same thing about his masseuse. His massues even got switched out in the middle of it so wasnt professional at all. Will not go back again. read more

This is a fairly typical Asian massage place. The $40/hr body massage includes an oil and hot stone portion (back only) that adds a little bit of luxury to what is otherwise a beautifully and somewhat brutally efficient, and very effective massage. If you're looking to be pampered, this probably isn't the place for you, but if you'd like to spend an hour being tenderized till your muscles feel like they're roughly the consistency of a veal cutlet, you'll love it. read more

$20 foot massage $30 Combo foot/body I did the combo, was surprised that it included taking my clothes off, hot stones. and oiling up my body. Normally, these $20-30 foot massage places I've been to keep clothes on, in a public setting with all the chairs and massage you over the clothes. Thank goodness a lady was working on me because she unclipped my bra from behind to do the oil/hot stones which felt pretty amazing. It says 29.99 on the board, but the main guy charged 30 and an additional 3% cc fee of $1.50. Sketchy but effective. read more

Comparing this facility to the foot massage palors in SGV, I rate this place 3/5 for skill. I am more accustomed to deep tissue massage and this place is more suitable for people seeking swedish massage. But at $30 (including $10 tip) for a 1 hour foot and body massage, it's a pretty good deal for the westside. Parking: You can look for street parking or try your luck behind the palor for 1 of 3 parking spaces available. Be sure to read the signs! read more

Zen Foot Spa - Beauty & Spas Near Me - Culver City, California

Zen is one of the best foot massage spa's in the greater LA area. I have been to Las Vegas to Seattle and I have yet to find a foot spa for $15! Normally foot spas charge $20 for an hour and that includes them massaging your arms, head, legs and feet. The trick is that you don't ask for anything but a foot massage. This forces the masseuses to concentrate on your feet. But if you want the everything package then don't say a word, they will know what to do, but keep in mind your feet at that point only get 10 minutes of attention and to me it defeats the purpose. When you enter Zen they will ask you if you want the 1) 60 min 14.99 foot massage 2) 60 min 19.99 foot massage and back 3) 60 min 34.99 combo massage 4) 60 min 39.99 acupressure massage To be honest, I tried them all and there was no difference in the type of massage other than #2 takes you to a section to where you are in a sleeping position (verses a recliner for the #1) and 3&4 take to to a massage table. Other than that, you are better off taking the #1 as there is no difference in time or style. The owner's name is Lee, she is an amazing business woman and if you are fortunate when she is there, everything goes very smooth. Unfortunately when she is not there, there are some language barriers to deal with but all in all you will manage. The masseuses are hard working people and its a good idea to tip as you seem fit. I usually tip anywhere between $5 to $15 depending on how much care the masseuse takes and how much I have in my wallet. There are some good masseuses: if you like a light massage, then Vivian is amazing. She has a really nice touch and 10 minutes into your massage you are falling asleep. If you want a really deep and aggressive massage, then the guy who looks like Bruce Lee (no joke) is awesome as well. Another good idea is to load Google translate on your phone. It's a great way to communicate in Chinese and if you turn the phone on the side it will show in large characters. For example: Softer = Gèng róuhé - Harder = Gèng nán - More Oil = Gèng duō de shíyóu - Just Feet = Zhishì yingchi - Thank You = Xièxiè - Now you don't need to learn any of this but if you are a foot spa junkie like me, then it's best to be prepared as things go smoother. Another thing to do is bring your own Epson Salt. While your feet are soaking in warm water for about 5 mins, best to pour Epsom salt. You can get some across the street at Rite-Aid for $6 for a 6lb bag and it will last you some time. It's just makes the foot massage that much better! Cellular coverage is spotty. Doesn't matter if its Verizon or AT&T, I don't get 4G when I'm there so best to put away your phone for an hour and give your body the time that it deserves. Hope you enjoy Zen as much as I do! read more

Zen Foot Spa - Entrance to Zen. - Beauty & Spas Near Me - Culver City, California

I've been going here off and on for years. This past Saturday I can honestly say was my last. After a massage that started off good but ended up being too rough leaving me sore the next day, I was told "cash only", actually yelled at "cash only" when I tried to pay with a card. I pointed to the Visa/Mastercard images they have posted as well as the typed message saying they take cards and the so-called masseuse YELLED at me, "Cash only! Cash only!" Because I've been going here for years AND I'm an honest person, I drove to an ATM, got cash and brought it back but I will NEVER step foot in this place again! If you're not taking cards then TAKE DOWN THE FRICKING CHARGE CARD LOGOS and let your old customers know your new policy! Well, it's too late for this one but your other customers. read more

I was looking for a cheap massage place nearby, and ended up discovering this location. I went with a friend, and we each got the foot massage w/ back massage for $20 (basic foot massage is $15)--so cheap! When we first arrived, they told us it would be a 30 minute wait, but we ended up waiting less than 10 minutes. The guy who massaged me did a good job--he used strong pressure and my upper back definitely felt less tight afterwards. What bothered me, though, was all the distractions during our massage. All the people working there talked loudly to each other. At one point, the manager was giving my guy money (probably tips?), and he stopped massaging me for awhile to take money and talk to the other person. I understand massage places like these won't offer the same relaxing environment you would get at a spa, but the staff here talked a lot more and was way louder than ones at other Chinese foot massage places. I paid and tipped in cash, because they charge ~$1 for credit cards. They offer a rewards card, which gives you a free massage after 10 massages. We came on a Saturday night and found street parking right in front of this place. This is definitely not one of the better foot massage places I've been to. However, considering the cheap price and the distance, I think I will continue to come here once in awhile. read more

I been going here for 7 years- they upped the prices, but due to the pandemic it's understood. I had the best massage today, i been once in the last year due to my busy schedule and the pandemic but I'll be back again next week. read more

I was introduced to the Zen a few months ago, and it's always an enormous treat for my body and mind. The vibe is very mellow, with soft lighting, whispers and gentle instrumental music. I opt for the feet and full body for 1 hr, and it always is such a relaxing experience, I'm left in a daze when it's all over. Granted, this is the first reflexology / massage parlor I've ever been to, but even my girlfriend who has been to a variety of different places at higher prices swears that this is the best, so she's become a regular! I prefer a male masseuse to really put the pressure down, but they have females also for a more delicate touch. The massage method employed by the masseuses is incredible--they are really attentive and thorough every time I've gone so far. The hot foot bath, warm towels and lotion they use is heavenly, and always felt clean and invigorating. I tip at least $15, $20 if it's really amazing--don't be those cheap jerks who gives them a fiver, they really do an amazing job and deserve more given how good the massage is! read more

I'll preface this review by saying, "You get what you pay for." The massage is fine but not great. It mostly depends on which employee you get. I've had two employees who provided good massages and several who provided average (at best) messages. What actually baffles me most at this place is the fact that the employees will demand a minimum tip of $10. Demanding a 50% tip?! read more

I want this place to not suck, but every time I go back it still sucks. They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, I guess I'm insane for thinking Zen Reflexology would eventually give good massages. I will give you a quick rundown of what I expect from a massage, then I'll tell you what I got at Zen. What I expect: Masseuse has some familiarity with the human body and works out tension in tight muscles, specifically in the feet (because I ordered a foot massage) What I got: I got draped in bed sheets that were so ratty mine had a hole in it. I've gotten bug bites from the place and I am curious to see if they'll magically reappear after this hellish experience. They gave me a male masseuse because I asked for a rougher massage (I'm an athlete I need the knots worked out.) This guy just straight up wanted to scratch my head for 15 minutes... I shit you not they might have pulled the cashier off his stand to come try his hand at massaging for the first time. I've never seen someone so unfamiliar with a human body in my life. It felt like I was getting pet with vegetable oil by someone's arthritic grandma. The old me would have just weathered the storm, but the new me said "fuck this, if I'm gonna pay a dude to rub my body he better at least know not to fuck with my goddamn scalp... doesn't he know that shit gives me dandruff... also for fucks sake what are you scratching at??? My brain? Aren't you supposed to be massaging???" So yeah I tried to end it mid massage and just wait outside for my boyfriend to be done. But they insist that I let this other lady try. I accepted this offer because at least having a woman shittily rub my body is less creepy. She gave me what can only be described as a gentle sponge bath. She swore she was working her ass of rubbing me but the only useful part of the massage was her awkwardly stretching me. Idk man, I'll never go back to this place. Not only is it a waste of money, it's also a waste of life and I'm legitimately mad I'll never get that hour of my life back. read more

We have enjoyed returning to Zen Foot Spa. The staff members are attentive and friendly. Great prices in a great neighborhood. My only complaint is the staff members will switch half way through if someone else comes in wanting a specific massage. I prefer a masseuse rather than a male and during my last visit they made an unannounced switch. Just speak up. read more

Filthy. Several workers were hacking up a lung. Long black hairs on the sheets. Pressure was too hard even when I asked to ease up. Cheap, tho! Charged me for an hour but it was probably 30-35 minutes...some of that time was lost because he had to get up and hock a big loogie he was choking on. Then demanded a tip. When I refused he huffed off like a child. All in all a very lovely experience. read more

Ok I'm a bit confused, so I decided to sit in my car to write this review immediately. Originally I went to Happy Foot and Happy Back right up the street but they were completely booked. I then walked down to Zen and was greeted nicely by an elderly woman. After about 10-15 minutes into my massage, the elderly woman began to complain that her arms were hurting, I don't speak the language but I could see everything under the cloth that were supposed to be covering my eyes and it seems like that's what was happening. Sure enough a bald guy came over to her rescue and started to massage my feet. Here's where the confusion lies. This guy had it out for my feet, I mean he wanted to permanently cripple me for no apparent reason. I couldn't understand why this guy wanted to break every bone in my foot. Like a guy, I tried to man up and deal with the pain but I couldn't last too long, I tapped out. I nicely asked him to lessen the pressure and even gestured with a small hand signal, I guess he didn't get it because he continued to fracture every bone on the dorsal and ventral side of my foot. As he moved upward towards my legs and back, it became clear to me that I must have done something to this guy in my past lifetime. I'm not sure what it was but I didn't deserve this treatment. Listen yelpers, I'm a dramatic guy but on all seriousness, this was out of f***n control, I barely made it out alive. My eyes are bulging out of my sockets and I couldn't feel my toes. Thanks to him, a guy will never give me a massage again. At the end he acted as if he did that and it was the best thing ever. He even looked at me like "yeah bro I hooked you up didn't I?" I slid him a quick $10 and was gone. Never again, if you come here stay the hell away from the bald Asian guy w the big ears. You will not survive. read more
