Sorry to say I do not recommend jian min massage therapy at all. First, the massage therapist was talking with each other and it was not relaxing at all. Second, it was 10 mins short. Third, it demands a good tip based on (1) and (2). Third, I tried to talk to the owner but the massage therapist said owner does not care and you have to pay good tip or cannot go. I was in a rush and need go somewhere so had to pay good tip. Fourth, the massage therapist left in the middle of the session and changed another one without any communication to me. Last, at the time of payment, telling me cash only. It was just such an unpleasant experience. I wish I could rate this place 0. Anyway, as there are so many massage options in Chinatown, I am sorry but I do NOT recommend this place at all.

Went in for a 1 hour foot message. Wasnt sure what to expect honestly. Got a full hour and was impressed that they didnt try to include the foot soak as part of the hour. Cash only, but will take Zelle. Would definitely go again if Im in BOS.

Rita gave me a 30mins deep neck and shoulder massage before catching my flight back to France. She is very strong and managed to release my pain in a very short time. Thank you!

I have been here twice and both times I have had an AMAZING experience! Totally worth getting a full hour :) I have chronic neck and back pain and both times, the therapists have been able to work MAGIC! When friends visit me, I have brought them for a session and so far, there have been no regrets :) I highly recommend! Everyone is so sweet!

10 out of 10. Probably the best massage in my life to date. Walked right in to clean comfortable room and therapist took me for a rigorous 45 min tour of the universe! She zero’d in on my sore back area and more. Did not want to leave, ty!

The place was nice, very clean, but they really want you to pay $80. They tell you the cheaper massage is a light touch to upsell you. They also ask for cash only, and $20 tip. The massage was still light and they often stopped to talk. I honestly wouldnt come back.

The entire experience was very bad..the lady at the front was aggressively asking us to pay even before the massage started. We booked a 4:00 pm appointment and they kept saying “5 minutes” and started only at 4:30, and this was only after I asked to talk to the manager. The person giving the massage was not very good and the overall massage experience was only neck and shoulders instead of full body which is what the lady said when I called, so I thought this was very overpriced. Finally, after the massage when we were about to leave, the lady aggressively yelled at us to give a tip, even though the our entire experience was underwhelming, with the wait time, bad massage, and lady shouting. I would not recommend this place to anyone…avoid it if you can.

Wonderful massage! One of the best massages I’ve ever experienced. I’m recovering from recent surgery and the masseuse took special care and made the areas feel much better. Highly recommend and the price point is great. Will go again the next time I visit Boston.

Nice massage but they massage only the back and the back of the legs. They don’t massage the front, even with the 1-hour massage. The 1-hour Deep Tissue is 80 dollars, the Swedish is 70 dollars, which is 20 dollars more expensive than at the Chinatown Pain Relief Massage, in the parallel street. And they really insist on getting a tip.

I received the best deep tissue massage I’ve ever had!! They made me feel really comfortable the whole time and made sure I was doing ok. I felt like a new person walking out!!! Looking forward to trying the other massages

I love their deep tissue massages, I always feel much less tense the next day and for a while after. Its always been a true deep tissue in my experience, they dont hold back if you tell them youre ok with it. They also seem to know where my most tense spots are and focus there.

One of the better full body massages Ive had in years . Not the best kept place or the most modern space . But Im here for a good massage and thats exactly what I got. Would be back and highly recommend

Review №16

Hands down the best massage I have ever had. Even better than the Spa at Mandarin Oriental. The really knew exactly what I needed without me saying anything. I did a couples massage with my boyfriend. He has a bad ankle, and without saying anything, they focused on releasing the tension in that ankle. These women are miracle workers. Their english is not perfect, but your experience will be worth pushing past the language barrier. The experience is authentic, and I havent felt this good in a long time. Thank you! I will be back soon!

Review №17

Awful experience! Been here many times because I didnt want to try other stores. One of the three massagists really sucks. I dont feel any better after the service and she blames it on me not coming often. The other two are competent but keeps persuading me to come often and buy more time. The last time I went, they lied about the duration and tried many methods to charge more. Wont go again.

Bad experience , masseuse didn’t know what she was doing , she didn’t even completed the time paid. And still expect a $20 dollar tip

Review №19

After my friend highly recommended this place, I decided to give it a try. I have had neck pain, leg pain for many many years. When the owner Xiang touched my body, she said your neck is so hard. The massage process was painful, due to many tight knots in my neck, shoulder. But after the massage, for the last two days, I feel I have not slept so well for many years. Thanks to Xiangs good knowing hands. I would highly recommend this place too.

Review №22

I had a terrible experience there.I went for a deep tissue massage. The woman just gave me what I think resembled a normal massage and even though I told her and pointed at her my trigger points she ignored them and continue with a lousy job.If you are unlucky enough to have one of these workers then you are gonna have a bad time.The place is not set up to have costumers back as their way of doing business seems a bit sketchy

Joe is the best. He uses authentic Chinese massage methods, and was able to open my clotted veins. Its normal to feel a little pain the next day if the area has been clotted for too long. But he doesnt have the English to explain it to people so here you go. Anyway Im glad I was able to find an authentic like Joe

I suffered neck and lower back pain problems for years, this deep tissue massage helps me a lot. The stuffs are so friendly, professional, and always did amazing jobs. It is definitely the best massage I have found in Boston in the last five years. Highly recommended.

Small place in the heart of Chinatown. Two ladies provide massages. Excellent deep tissue massage. Her hands work fast and strong strokes.Your English maybe lost in translation and you could be asked to pay first. Cash only.They don’t expect tips. Which is a little odd. I tipped anyway.

Cash only but very professional, great service and a great massage by Anne! Went in with lower back pain and upper right back contraction and came out without lower back pain and 95% full neck motion. Will definitely make this a recurring visit to keep healthy and as a preventive measure.

Review №29

It’s a extremely terrible experience here. The person hurt my neck badly. When I was massaged, she answered a call that a guy urged her to have the next appointment. I don’t think she was pay attention to my massage. Most of the time she stepped of my back instead of using hands to massage. I said pain, but she said I will few comfortable later. After I was massaged, I immediately felt my neck was worse. Hours later at yesterday night, when I lied on my bed, my neck felt SO pain. I couldn’t not lie and move my neck anymore. The whole night I sat on my bench, when I was asleep I woke up soon because of pain. Today until right now I also feel pain when I eat, talk even without doing anything. My neck was hurt BADLY! I didn’t ask they refund me any fee or any compensation. I only want to share this issue with others to may help you avoid this kind of malpractice here.

During my 2 years stay in Boston, I always went to Jian Min. I enjoyed the deep tissue so much, and it always solved all my pain. I’ve tried Huo Guan too. The masseuses were so professional and so great! I received a lot of massages back in China, and the service here at Jian Min was among the best! I recommended this place to lots of my friends who suffered from sour neck or back due to long time sitting. If I have a chance to go back to Boston in the future, I will definitely go to Jian Min one more time! Thank you!!

Review №32

I started going to Jian Min Massage Therapy when it first opened 7 years ago. I had been working in front of a computer for over 30 years. My posture was not the best because my occupation. My neck and back were very tight. My massage therapist, Ah-Heung (Rita) had helped me untied my knots in my back and neck so that my back posture has improved. I used to go every other week but after the pandemic I have been going every week because I have become more active with hiking, biking and rock climbing. Ah-Heung helps me to loosen my tight muscles and get ready for more activities to strengthen my body.

Review №33

Should have left ASAP when they asked for $$$ before we even sat down. Went in for a foot massage that was interupted by phone calls, asking for money from customers walking in, and then the women walking out the front door to give atm directions to potential client. Left with such oily feet as they do not take the time to wipe your feet and legs properly.

This place was unprofessional. The person that did my massage focused mostly on her tip and not my troubled area. My deep tissue massage was more like a pat on the back. NEVER AGAIN

Very surprising experience! My whole back was extremely sore, but after being massaged by fellow Shenzhen fellows and then cupping, it was almost completely relieved! The acupuncture points are very precise 👍The pressure is very precise, and the intensity can be adjusted freely. It seems that you have good skills at first glance. I stayed in Boston for three days this time, and I plan to go there for the second time. It is also true love.
