As a licensed massage therapist myself, I wish to address the complaints below about the therapist not knowing where to relieve pain.

Not only the pressure was off, she also totally ignored my pinpoint that I circled in the sheet which is my lower back. She's just trying to scrub the oil all over me but not massage. Very disappointed and my session was shorter than my friends who were also there during the same time. Ive been to many other places with better massage and cheaper price but This is the first time here and I'll not...
