The Foot Spa — Local services in Spring Valley

This review pains me as I really wanted to like this place. I recognize my experiences may be a one off, but it is an alarm for concern.

I came in on Sunday evening. As I walked into the tiny lobby area, Tim (I believe the front desk), asked if I wanted one of the specials on the wall. I said fine to the 1 hour deep tissue. I was taken to a single room where they told me to take off my shoes and get ready etc. For background information, I just finished a 4 day backpacking trip in Zion. I was sore... my legs were beat. I frequently receive reflexology in my hometown in CA. I always prefer more pressure, but I recognize that I really didn't need much to feel it after this trip. Nonetheless, the gentleman who was working on me had zero pressure. I felt like I was just getting oil/lotion applied to my skin. There were times that he used elbows for a little more pressure, and it was great. However, they were short lived and amounted to maybe 5 minutes of the entire hour massage . Furthermore, the poor guy was constantly sneezing, and left to the back room to handle handle his nasal/sinus issues. It kinda grossed me out, but I thought, hey... this guy really needs the work. After the massage, I walk past the room which had like 10 or so other workers...

When it came to paying at the front, Tim asked me how the massage was. As politely as I could, I said, "eh, it was okay." Regardless of the poor experience, I tried to give the masseuse some credit and left a $10 tip on the receipt. Tim, the front desk, pointed out that I HAD to leave a $15 minimum according to their policy. Although this was one of the worst massages I have ever had, I was going to drop, let it go, and never return. Now that I was being pressured to leave a larger tip, I told him that my masseuse was sick, sneezing and that it was unsanitary to be working on customers. Tim did not try to deny it, and asked how I wanted my massage. It seemed that he tried to schedule me the next day with a different person. He asked for my number and said they would schedule me with someone who can offer more pressure. I still left the "correct" required tip and left. The next day, without surprise, I received no phone call.

Save your money, and go...

I had set up an appointment two days before. I heard this place has like a lounge that has multiple beds so when I called I asked about if they had private rooms instead. The owner was very nice and caring and told me they do offer private rooms and set up an appointment for me. I have sciatica and haven’t fully recovered from it and on top of that: the day before my appointment I gotten a gout flair up (I know being Asian it happens lol). I went in the day of my appointment. The environment is chill and they showed me to my room which was good enough for me. There was a pot of hot water a massage bed and some towels. I got undressed and used the towels and placed my feet in the water. From there the guy who did my massage was Jesons and all I can say is that this was the best massage I ever had in Las Vegas!!! The foot and body combo massage was out of this world!

I was scared to get my feet massage due to my minor gout flare up but I’m glad I did because after my massage I don’t even feel my gout no more! It’s like he did some kind of voodoo to my foot and it relieved my pain or something 😆. This massage was a deep tissue and he really goes deep by using his elbows into your muscles. It hurt a bit but not in a bad way. It actually helped my sciatic nerves that I have an issue with. I did the 90 mins for $60 and it was worth every dollar!

If you do tons or martial arts like myself and want a strong massage, I highly recommend Jasons. He is a kind guy, respectful and has some serious skill! Thanks guys! I’m definitely coming back!!! 10 ⭐️ if...

An updated …. I’ve tried this place 3 or 4x and I think my favorite masseuse therapist is Nancy. She takes direction well and listens to your needs

The other therapists are good too but not as good. I always ask the therapist to focus specifically on my feet for 30 and on my shoulders for 30 and then 30 on the rest. It’s clear who actually understands what I’m saying vs who is just pretending to understand. Some therapists don’t give much pressure, while others will start off really hard and let you tell them to chill. I prefer the harder massages but my most recent one was superrrrr light even when I asked to go harder.

Two notes to management…, in the winter, crank the heat up a bit. My masseuse therapist had go get me an extra towel it was so cold. 2 when it’s cold outside, nobody wants cold lotion rubbed on them. Warmed oil is definitely the move. You’re welcome

Loved this place!

It’s a little weird to get a massage in an open room full of people so I think you have to order a full body to get one of the private rooms. My masseuse took directions very well and made adjustments as I gave them.

They do charge a credit card fee as well as a mandatory $10 tip but honestly the price is so low, I can’t complain.

I will...
