| - This is a reflexology massage business, so think deep tissue meets thai meets acupressure. Read the other reviews if you want to have a good sense of what to expect in terms of the differences between this and say, massage envy.
That said, I feel sorry for people who had a less than positive experience here, because it is such a gem in my life. I know I can go in here and spend $30 plus tip and have a deeply healing massage from someone who is working their butt off to make my body feel better. It is a mystery to me how the reflexology works, but I don't care! I have gone in with everything from a really sore achilles tendon to a tweaked neck and have always left with a great improvement. The last time I went I could barely walk without a limp going in because my achilles was so sore, and after they did their work, the next day it was like nothing had ever been injured. During the massage I had to kind of breathe through the part that involved rubbing it, because it was so sore, but it took care of the problem and then some.
I also took my good friend with me last time, who was visiting from out of town. She is a body worker in a very prestigious spa catering to celebrities and others who can afford the best of the best. She was really impressed with the level of care and attention.
The only negative I can see to this place is that there can be a small language barrier if you are asking for something out of the ordinary, and also, it isn't the type of massage everyone is going to love. If you're elderly aunt just wants to have her shoulders lightly rubbed with lavender body oil, this may not be the best choice. If you really need someone to work hard to get the knots and kinks out, and you are up for a little out of the ordinary healing, this is going to be a godsend!
