Thai Body Works — Local services in Irvine

I hate doing reviews, but I think people should be aware

I’ve tried to give another chance to this place and it was a complete disaster and disappointment. Me and my husband decided to have some relaxation time but ended up getting nervous break down, a lot of pain and masseuses who don’t know what they are doing…

Firstly masseuse don’t understand English , but it’s okay as long as you know what you are doing …. Not the case, my masseuse used A LOT of oil and the massage felt like a light palming …. Then I asked to not used so much oil so I can at least feel the massage, so she aggressively wipe off this oil and started to do massage with her elbow SO PAINFULLY AND AGGRESSIVELY as if she wants to kill me and ended up going over my ligaments on the back of my leg , which was insanely bad and not even healthy, it’s dangerous ….

They also don’t have blankets and cover you with a towel so during the massage I felt so cold, asked to Give me another one but she still left my feet open and by the end of the massage my feet were freezing….

We ended up paying 150$ for two obviously left no tips because this is horrible and not polite and moreover NOT PROFESSIONAL service!!! You work with the human body so you better know where to press and where not….. my husband had pretty much the same Experience……

Not coming back and would love to...

I recently visited Thai Body Works massage at their new location and overall, I had a good experience. Having previously visited their Laguna Niguel location, I was familiar with their services but did notice that the prices had gone up over the years. Despite the price increase, the quality of the massage was still very good.

We opted for the 90-minute couple massage and were pleased to be placed in a private room with two beds. The masseuses were skilled and attentive, ensuring that our experience was relaxing and enjoyable. After the massage, we were provided with hot tea and pineapples, which was a nice touch and added to the overall experience.

However, the one downside of our visit was when we went to pay and leave a tip. The person at the counter seemed to be expecting more than what we gave, and we were unsure of how much more to give. In the end, I gave an additional $20, but I was not happy with the facial expression that I received. This put a slight damper on the end of an otherwise pleasant visit.

Overall, Thai Body Works massage is a good choice for those seeking a high-quality massage experience, but be prepared to pay a premium price. Just be aware of the tipping expectations and try to communicate with the staff to avoid any...

A Hidden Gem for Total Relaxation

THE SPACE: Clean, quiet, and refreshingly simple—just what you’d expect from a classic massage salon. The ambiance is calm, with soft music playing, no overpowering aromatherapy, and a minimalist vibe. One unexpected detail: the massage bed is set on the floor rather than a traditional table, which took a moment to adjust to but ended up feeling very grounding.

THE MASSAGE: Absolutely top-tier. It was a full-body experience—literally head to toe—with perfect pressure, soothing hot stones, and thoughtful stretches that melted away the tension from a long flight. You can really tell the therapist knows their craft.

THE FINISHING TOUCH: After the session, I was treated to a lovely surprise: a plate of chilled, juicy pineapple paired with a cup of hot green tea. It was the perfect, refreshing end to an already relaxing visit.

If you’re looking for a no-frills, deeply restorative massage experience, this spot is well...
