Eden House Massage Spa — Local services in New York

I get massages to help with recovery from athletic training and a desk job but my usual place was booked up so I came here instead. Some strange things happened that made me determine this isn’t the best place for that. First, I was asked to pay in full upfront before the massage, which I have never been asked any of the massage establishments across multiple cities and countries I’ve frequented over the last decade. Second, it became clear within the first few minutes that the young woman working on me was not a professionally trained masseuse. Zero training. Didn’t know a thing about where or how to work on sore knots or key body points. After receiving massages of different modalities (Swedish, Thai, Chinese, sports massages, deep tissue, special hybrid/mixed modalities), I can confidently say no modality was used and it was just “figuring things out as you go while rubbing a lot of oil and pinching in the wrong places at the completely wrong angle”.

When I tried to leave, the lady insisted that I stay to let another lady work on me. The second lady was also completely untrained. I asked her three times to stop before she would take her hands off of me and leave the room. She tried to get a third worker to enter my room but I quickly changed and left. I received 2/3 of my money back which was fair for the time but still, a waste of time that couldn’t be earned back.

Overall, there were some…interesting, vibes. I don’t judge people for wanting to run a business serving customers nor do I judge customers for wanting what they want, but if you’re looking for a massage, I would take a look at the satisfied male customers and come to your own conclusions about...

Absolutely Horrible and Inappropriate Experience – Ruined My Birthday

I came to this spa on my birthday hoping for a relaxing and professional massage. What I got instead was an unprofessional, aggressive, and downright manipulative experience that left me feeling violated and disgusted.

I specifically booked a massage with one masseuse, expecting a calm and rejuvenating session. About 15 minutes in, another woman suddenly barged into the room without warning, disrupting the massage and creating an extremely uncomfortable atmosphere. She then began pressuring me to pay for two girls, and started offering explicit services—something I never asked for and never wanted.

When I tried to decline and explain that I came for a peaceful spa experience—not this kind of service—they became pushy and intimidating, making it difficult to leave without confrontation. It felt like a trap, and I honestly didn’t feel safe.

This place is completely unprofessional, and if you’re looking for a legit, relaxing, respectful massage, stay far away. I would never recommend this business to anyone. No one should be made to feel cornered or harassed—especially not on...

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this spa, and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience. The massages were not only incredibly relaxing, but also executed with a high level of professionalism. The service provided by the staff was top-notch, leaving me feeling pampered and well taken care of. Overall, it was a wonderful spa experience that I would highly...
