Shanti Spa — Attraction in Palisades Park

After trying an hour massage here earlier this year (around February-March), I was very interested in coming back because the massage was actually very good. I used to enjoy trying different spas in Flushing, Queens to find a good place for massage. I could tell the quality of the massage here was on point, the masseuse had great technique, knew precisely where the pressure points were and applied the right strength of pressure to release tension.

When I came back the second time a couple weeks ago, I was quite disappointed with the communication and customer service. The massage quality was still great! However, it was not communicated well to me that there was now a minimum range requirement for tips. When I came out to pay, I initially gave 20% tip ($10 for $50 massage).

Highly recommend for anyone looking for a truly relaxing and top-notch...

Hi, if I can leave a 0 star I would. I’m a lash technician and I work with my upper back & neck. I went in for a full body 1 hour massage and it was HORRIBLE. Worst massage of my life , my partner does a better massage! When she was doing my neck she was applying wayy too much force! To the point I was having difficulty breathing. My upper back I feel like i have bruises. I have sharp pain on these areas more than what I came with. I have trouble sleeping because of the pain. I will not come here again. And then the audacity to ask me to tip and look confuse when I say no because of the...
