Okay so it's a Sunday and I woke up with another migraine which has happened more frequently and that means I need to see the chiropractor and or get a massage. I was finally able to find a place that had availability at the last minute on a Sunday afternoon and this place was it. I always read reviews before I go so naturally that's the first thing I did. They have a 4.7 and a lot of great comments so I figured I didn't have a lot of options so why not give it a try. This is a No Frills massage location, I won't call it a spa LOL. It definitely is missing the small touches such as aromatherapy in the room, larger rooms that have a chair where you can kind of catch your breath after your massage, the small niceties of having the sheet politely folded back as they work on you, and lastly massage oil versus the very heavy oil that they use. I have never felt so oily and slick in my life LOL. I don't know what kind of oil this is but I've never felt a massage oil that made me feel like I was ready to be dipped in the fryer. Other than those couple of small pleasures, my masseuse Jimmy gave me one of the best massages I've ever had! I will take this great massage in exchange for the niceties of a massage parlor or Spa and will be returning.
If you are used to or if you are expecting a welcoming salon or Spa where you want to sit and sip some tea after your massage, you want a plush room, you want someone that is having small talk with you, then this is not your place. If you want your body to be worked out and stretched out, possibly with tons of oil lol, then this is your place. On my next trip I will just ask them not to use as much oil.
I had to take off a star because the room was very small, the sheet was shorter than I am and I'm 5'10, there was no aromatherapy available, the music was very low and not in the room with you but rather piped through the entire building I'm guessing, the walls were thin so I could hear the people in the neighboring rooms as well as people in the hallway, there were some shoes in the room when I entered and they did not belong to my masseuse or to me , and I had a small concern about the tiles on the ceiling not being closed completely and being a little dirty. It sounds like maybe I should have taken off another star but the massage was so good I could only deduct...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI WENT TO THIS ESTABLISHMENT FOR THE FIRST TIME AND HAD A MIXED EXPERIENCE. I WAS VERY PLEASED THAT FOR A WALK-IN, THEY COULD GET ME BACK RIGHT AWAY. MY ISSUES WERE THAT I WAS NOT ASKED IF THERE WERE CERTAIN AREAS I NEEDED TO HAVE FOCUS ON, OR LESS PRESSURE. THERE IS NO MUSIC PLAYED IN THE ROOMS, THE LIGHTS ARE NOT DIMMED DURING THE MASSAGE SESSION, AND THEY DO NOT ASK IF YOU WOULD LIKE CERTAIN PARTS OF YOUR BODY TO STAY COVERED DURING THE SESSION. THE MOST DISTASTEFUL EXPERIENCE CAME WHEN IT WAS TIME TO CHECKOUT. I PAID WITH CARD, AND I ALWAYS TIP IN CASH, AS I DON'T LIKE THEIR TIPS TAXED, AND I HAVE BEEN GETTING MASSAGES FOR YEARS WITH MASSAGE ENVY. AS I PAID WITH MY CARD AND FILLED OUT MY TOTAL, THE MASSEUSE GRABBED THE RECEIPT AND AND DEMANDED A TIP BE ON THERE IN A VERY RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL, AND EXPECTANT WAY. I INFORMED HER THAT I TIP IN CASH AS I WAS GRABBING MY WALLET, AND SHE TRIED TO NOT RETURN MY CARD, UNTIL SHE GOT HER TIP. I ALWAYS TIP 20% OR MORE, BUT THIS COMPLETELY TURNED ME OFF AND RUBBED ME THE WRONG WAY, SO INSTEAD OF THE 25% PERCENT SHE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN IN CASH, I TIPPED HER A FEW DOLLARS THAT I DID NOT WANT TO GIVE BECAUSE OF HER ATTITUDE AND I LEFT.
THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!! WHAT IF THIS WAS A GIFT TO SOMEONE, WHO SHOULD REALLY ONLY HAVE TO SHOW UP, AND RECEIVE THEIR SERVICE, NOT BE OBLIGATED TO TIP. THERE ARE MORE PROFESSIONAL WAYS TO ASK FOR GRATUITY, AND THIS WAS NOT IT. HAD SHE JUST WAITED A FEW MORE SECONDS BEFORE SHE OPENED HER RUDE AND EXPECTANT MOUTH, SHE WOULD HAVE MOST DEFINITELY GOTTEN MORE THAN WHAT SHE WAS EXPECTING.
I WILL NOT BE BACK, AND I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS ESTABLISHMENT, UNLESS IT'S A WALK- IN SPUR OF THE...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI have been a regular customer at Ying Massage Spa, primarily for their foot reflexology massages, and I must say they do a really good job! The therapists are skilled and provide a relaxing and rejuvenating experience.
The foot reflexology massages at Ying Massage Spa are truly effective. The therapists apply the right amount of pressure and focus on the reflex points that correspond to different organs and body systems. After each session, I feel refreshed and revitalized.
One aspect that impressed me is the knowledge and expertise of the male therapist I had the pleasure of receiving a massage from. He was well-versed in the techniques and theories of reflexology. He explained the process and its benefits, which added to my overall satisfaction with the experience.
However, there is one minor area that could be improved upon. During my session, I noticed that the therapist's hands seemed a bit rough, which affected the overall comfort level. It would be beneficial if the therapists could maintain softer hands to enhance the overall experience.
Despite this small concern, I highly recommend Ying Massage Spa for their foot reflexology massages. The therapists' expertise and the effectiveness of the treatment make it a worthwhile visit. The spa has a relaxing ambiance, and the staff is friendly and professional. I always leave feeling refreshed and with a sense of well-being. A visit to Ying Massage Spa is definitely a treat...
