| - Ok, $20/hour for a full body massage? And it had amazing reviews on Yelp??? I had to check it out. I didn't have an appointment so I was paired with the first person available. Yay for being able to walk in, but it was downhill from there.
You definitely get what you pay for. Here's why...
1. So instead of there being individual rooms, it's one big room with everyone getting their massage. I couldn't fully relax because I kept hearing noises from other people. (I.E. phones, movement of the employees, sounds of the tapping of massages).
2. The bed I was on was creeky. When he would push down on my back, the whole bed would make sounds. Every time I felt myself falling asleep, there goes the creek sounds.
3. The actual massage was really painful. I've a had a deep tissue massage before so I know what it's like to feel pain. About three or four times DURING the massage I just wanted to say stop. I think he could feel me tensing up, so he pushed even harder. I only weigh 100 lbs so it was definitely painful. It's the day after and my shoulder is so sore that I can't lift my arm up.
4. What's with all the slapping?!? I know some people may like that, but not me.
I do have to give credit on the massage he did on my scalp, hands and feet. I'm on my feet for 10+ hours and I work a lot with my hands so this was very helpful to relieve some aches. I told fellow Yelper Khatherine T. about my bad experience. She loves this place so she was shocked about what I told her. She said that her friend got the same guy as me and had the same bad experience. Next time if I go back, I'll definitely book an appointment with the guy that Khatherine suggested.
