One of the best massages I’ve had in my life. Can’t wait to come back.

These girls know what they’re doing. It’s a no frills salon — four or five rooms separated by curtains, but they have relaxing music on. For $ 45 for one hour and $ 60 for 90 mins, you’re not going to get much more bang for your buck than this. If it’s a massage you want, knots unknotted, then they will get it done for you. I went in for a 60 and pushed up to 90.

This place is seriously a gem. First of all it’s only $ 45 an hour and the massages you get are incredible! Be careful when asking for hard pressure because these ladies are strong. I always ask for Emma who is amazing! The one thing to keep in mind is that this isn’t a spa experience. The beds are clean & private but you can hear everything in the room since you’re separated by curtains. Come here expecting a really solid massage at a really reasonable price.

Don’t let the«shady» façade fool you, this place is amazing(and legit)! I’ve been here several times since they opened a few years ago and have had a great experience each time. I have my favorites, however, every single masseuse there has been on point. Emma is outstanding and can pinpoint my troubles as soon as she places a hand on my body. She absolutely beats the shit out of me(in the best way possible) and I love it! I squirm and occasionally cry on the table, and leave feeling like a million bucks. The only thing I can see people not liking is that the tables are separated by partitions, so you can absolutely hear what’s happening on the next table over. However, due to the insanely reasonable price, you can’t complain.

I’m really hesitant to say this, but I think Wendy gave me the best massage of my life. My friends convinced me to join them in a ridiculously luxurious two hour(!!) massage, and I really didn’t know what to expect. I have general aches and pains, but nothing serious – yet Wendy worked me over so incredibly well that I felt like I was on a high for several days. She’s very knowledgeable and not only spent time on more pressure points than I knew existed, she also explained to me what and why she was going certain things – particulatly when she needed to apply extra pressure. Prepare for a massage that will actually start to «fix» your body as opposed just a general pat down. I’ll definitely be going back.

I finally went here after many recommendations from friends and my first experience was amazing. The staff here really knows what they’re doing and the prices are very reasonable. My second time here though wasn’t as good — the woman had seemed a little less experienced and she farted during my session, which was weird?

They were able to accommodate me last minute which was a plus! Wasn’t a big fan of the«rooms» which were separated by curtains but the ladies here do work. The lady I had didn’t speak English but knew what area I wanted more work on which was my upper back. She was able to massage the knots out thankfully. I was right by the AC and I wasn’t a fan of how cold it was. My body was cold throughout the whole hour which wasn’t comfortable. And if you use a credit card, there’s a $ 4 fee.

A friend had just been and had a really good massage so after lunch I walked on over. I was sore from 24 hours of air travel. No longer. Good vibes! Greeted with a warm hello and solid attention. These women are good people, the vibe is palpable. My massage was $ 45 for 60 mins and my therapist super intuitive. I didn’t mention that I have a shoulder issue but she found it and stayed on it. I will definitely be back.

This place only gets better and better! I come here once a week and they take great care of my back and shoulders which are always strained.

Excellent massage work. These ladies know what they are doing! I wish the interior was more private. I dislike hearing chatter of the other customers and their massage therapists. Other than that it is win win! Prices are great. Very professional.

After reading reviews by fellow Unilocalers I decided to give this spot a try today. My shoulders and the middle of my back have been really tight(due to working long hours working with metal at a work bench) and getting a massage was long overdue. A lot of other reviewers have mentioned this but this is NOT an upscale spa. It’s your typical asian massage place that specializes in deep tissue. Upon entering I was greeted by two very friendly women and was escorted back to the massage table. The area is really clean but simple and the«rooms» are divided by curtains. I must also note, don’t be shy! They make you strip off everything(bra, shirts, pants, etc.) except for your panties and you lay down waiting with a blanket draped over you. The music was really relaxing and I liked that the lady kept checking to see if the pressure was okay as she massaged different parts of my back and arms. She was very knowledgeable about my shoulder tension and immediately knew the ailments that I had. Also note — they massage your buttocks so don’t get all weirded out/scared. It’s just another body part that they massage and they are not trying to be perverted. Because of how tense my body was, the lady also rubbed some chinese ointment(it seems something like tiger balm but without the strong smell) thru the parts of my back and shoulders that were most tense. She said to keep it on for six hours and then wash it off. Overall, she was knowledgeable, had great general advice on how to care for my body and was very friendly. I will definitely be going back; the prices are also easy on the wallet. This place is a thumbs up! Note — take cash as they won’t charge you tax

Been here twice and each time it hurt so good. These women will rub you deep and strong(if you can take it, which is still an open question for me especially when receiving a sharp elbow to my «pressure points») and have impressive stamina. I was exhausted just observing the amount of effort shown by my massagers. My only concern: once safely inside my draped portico I was unsure whether to remove my panties, because unlike other places there was no sign telling me the protocol. That confusion aside, this was great full-body massage at a great price($ 68 for 90 minutes).

Hole in the wall massage place? Yup. Will I be Back? Yup! This is a no frills place so if you are looking for a spa atmosphere go to a spa instead. If you are looking for some good body work and you are local this is great! for 120 mins I paid 60 for massage and let me tell you that poor lady had a lot to work out. These massages can be painful they tend to be more on the deep tissue side although you can request a softer touch if you like. I advised Med to Hard and she was more on hard due to the nature of my muscles. These can be painful ! She did something on my left buttocks that hurt so bad! but today I walked down the stairs and this lingering pain I’ve had in my left knew just wasn’t there anymore ! I will be going back each week! TIP! Ask for a section furthest from the door

VERY good massage. I was working as a foster care caseworker and the stress of that job necessitated that I get regular massages so that I didn’t get a freaking aneurysm. The ladies here are clearly well trained and 100% professional so pervs need not come here.

So I’ve been wanting a massage for quite some time now. I woke up today feeling like death. I decided to try this place 3 blocks from my apartment. It’s a typical asian bodywork place. It’s not a spa at all but it’s not bad. This place isn’t bad for the price. But you get your money worth. For one hour I receive deep pressure massage with focus on my back. She was a little clumsy because she was applying pressure in my spine, kidneys, and along my brachial plexus which is a big No No. There also was a problem with the credit card machine. Luckily since I knew how to work it I helped her. I was double charged but then resolved the situation. Besides that I enjoyed my massage. Please note this is not a spa. If your looking for just body work with no spa expectations then I recommend it. My body was super sore before going in. The therapist did a good job in breaking up all those adhesions(knots). And she also worked with some hot stones which I definitely appreciated. It’s a great place to drop in get a massage and be on your way. The prices are a steal and I will be back in two weeks.

I went here on a Sunday evening without appointment and there was no wait. Wendy was my masseuse and she was incredible! She found knots in my shoulders and back I didn’t even know I had, and she worked on them diligently(I asked for strong pressure and she delivered). Wendy was friendly and professional. After an hour, I felt so much better. Definitely a fantastic value for the quality of service.

I live close to this place so I’ve wanted to check it out for some time. My back was all wrenched so I decided to go in. The massage was top notch. The masseuse, Wendy, gave the ultimate deep tissue. She instinctively found every knot in my back and neck and I walked out of there feeling like a million bucks. Relatively cheap(40 bucks for 45 mins) Clean and relaxing environment Professional staff I’m going back once a week to maintain. Happy it’s so close
