I booked this massage for my wife for Mothers Day I knew something was wrong when I picked her up and she started talking about everything but the massage! she didnt want to tell me how horrible and rough of a job they did. However this is how her back looks the day after and she just couldnt keep it to herself. I will be demanding a refund. I advise everyone to stay away.

Best deep tissue massage you’ll get at this price point and even higher ones to be honest. If you want a gentle massage this is not the place. What’s the point of that anyway?

This place use to give amazing massages. My husband and I came in for a couples massage and I have to say it was below average. The girl was texting while massaging my husband and the woman that was providing me with a massage was giggling and talking the entire time. I will not be returning.

This was the worst massage of my entire life. When we came for our appointment, they rushed us into the room, didn’t make us sign a waiver or ask where we needed help on our bodies. We did a couples massage and I had a man massaging me wearing a shirt with beer cans on it and an AirPod in his ear. Not only was it terrible, but he completely forgot to massage my other arm! He also didn’t massage my hands or legs. Both our masseuses left without saying anything during the massage , and multiple other people came in speaking to them in a foreign language and interrupting us while we were getting massages. On top of that, there are no doors in the place, just curtains. So you can hear everything going on in the entire establishment. After all of that, the male masseuse in the beer shirt demanded that we tip at least $15. My boyfriend and I have been to many massage places, and we always tip. But this was the most nightmarish place we could’ve imagined, and didn’t plan on tipping, but they forced us to in order to leave. I don’t understand how anyone could rate this 5 stars. Please stay away.

I went for massage first time here and walked in. I was greeted nicely, Amisha was great. She was respectful of my privacy and gave really good massage.She gave me complementary hot stone massage at end and it was perfect.Recommend to try this place!!!

I love getting massages so I brought my friend here for a couples massage. The guy that did her massage was good and applied the right amount of pressure. He was professional and my friend loved her massage. On the other hand, my massage was not only painful but the masseuse did not listen every time I told her to go lighter and put less pressure. She would apologize each time and then continue to hit my body. She did not listen to anything I said. Its the next day after my massage and Ive never been in so much pain after a massage. Still tipped her because she provided a service (not am enjoyable one). If you are in the market to get beaten, then I found the perfect place for you. If you are looking to have a peaceful and gentle massage then go elsewhere.

I was really really hoping it would have been better. I have had professionally trained and certified masseuse and I have had the chair massage at the mall and boardwalk this place definitely came in 4th place. On the positive they took me as a walk in and massaged for full 30 minutes. Place seemed clean and pleasant but the person who massaged me was clearly not professionally trained and just dug her thumbs into every muscle very hard which I asked to go lighter but did not. The following day I have spots all over my back which feel like I was clubbed. It was also disappointing that for a chair massage I sat on the end of a footstool hunched over!? Suggest you get a professional massage chair. I may give it another shot to be fair.

I was extremely impressed with 2 different body massage I got here. It is very rare that I will get a massage and think to myself the entire time that they are hitting the all right spots with the perfect amount of pressure, but that has happened here with both the half hour and hour massages I got on separate occasions. These ladies know what they are doing!I prefer harder pressure massages and because of this, at other places, there have been sections of my massages that are a little painful. Not the case here. The pressure was always very hard, but they know how to apply it to the right areas.Their prices are very reasonable, especially for what you get. The ambiance is where you are getting the discount in my opinion. It’s not bad, but it’s also not on par with the upscale spas where you pay twice as much. To me, it’s the product that matters and they deliver in that respect. Even more so than massages at those fancier places.Note: I did want to acknowledge that I do believe another reviewer about the couple’s massage and the kid being swapped in. I’ve seen him there and he’s nice, and Ive also seen them switch him in if the main masseuse is called away. To me, it looks like this place is a small, family-owned establishment. They probably must deal with more people than they can handle at busy times. It’s just something I have observed and not based on anything other than that, so I did not factor it into my rating. Everyone must learn, I guess.

I had an awful experience. My daughter and I l had a couples massage Sun. I had Michelle who was way too rough and hurt me. When I was screaming ouch she laughed and repeated ouch. I told her is was too hard and she continued not understanding I guess. It didnt seem that any of the 3 that work there understood what we were saying. It was not relaxing at all. I woke up with a horrible headache Mon and my back is still sore. I did call last night to tell them but the woman Mary did not understand what in was saying. I have had plenty of massages and never had this experience. I will not be returning.

My daughter and I have enjoyed the massage many times there. We glad to find the spa near home. Price is excellent and all massagers are friendly and give great massages! It can be hurt for American so you must speak up when it gets too much. But we enjoy it.

I found this place by accident, but so glad I did. These have been the best massages of my life. Obviously everyone is different in terms of preference, so not saying this style of massage is for everyone, but for what I like, its perfect. I prefer a deeper tissue massage and I have a lot of tension in my back, shoulders and neck and they spend ample time in these areas. To boot, their rates are very reasonable. At a full-scale spa, I end up spending 2x as much for a lower quality massage. I found this place three weeks ago and Ive been there once each week!

I would give no stars if that were possible. My husband and I went there for a couples message through Groupon and after our very inexperienced and rough massage they said our coupon had been used. We had never been there before and would never go back. The guy at the front desk ignored us when we came in and just read his paper. Not until we went to pay did he say anything and it was to demand a tip. This isn’t how it works here and I had tipped them he just read it wrong. The ladies definitely didn’t know what they were doing and I couldn’t wait for the massage to end. I don’t know how this place stays open. I can’t believe this is a legitimate business. I wanted to call the police after they made me pay again and demanded a tip. It was scary. Believe me when I say go somewhere else and stay safe.

I don’t even think you could believe our experience but you can’t make this stuff up—I came in for a couples massage, my massage was great. My masseuse was thorough and worked on my trouble areas. Five stars for my portion of the massage.My husband on the other hand had his masseuse leave after fifteen minutes to take a walk in, and had her son (a preteen child) finish his massage. I looked up during my massage curious to see this child massaging my husband, and this child not only kept leaving the room to take phone calls and greet other clients, but also ‘massaged’ my husband by pushing down on his eyelids for the rest of our time there.... I don’t know what that was about because my masseuse didn’t do that to me, it seemed like the kid had no idea what he was doing.*NOTE: my masseuse had me turn over half way and she literally pulled the thin sheet that was on me (I was literally in my underwear) in front of this boy child, which was seriously uncomfortable.When we left I left a tip for my masseuse and this child then demanded for his tip and asked for a bigger tip thereafter. If you’re looking to relax, this probably isn’t the place to go. Although I had a good time there, just watching my husband get the most awkward massage ever was terrible- I definitely won’t be coming here again.

Perfect 60 minute massage by Andy. I asked for gentle pressure which I would describe as medium pressure and it was just what I needed.. I am super relaxed and all of the tension in my neck is gone as well as my stress induced headache. A no friils place without any pressure to purchase add-ons or products. No hassle of having a membership. And the prices cannot be beat!! I will return for sure!

Review №15

This was my first time getting a massage and it was amazing. The guy did it was very professional and was able to get my sore spots without me saying a word. Highly recommend. However be warned that groupon has a discount of $46 for a full body massage when it says as you walk in that its $45 anyway

Amazing experience. The massages are high quality (strong) and affordable. The people are friendly as well. Calling and scheduling was a little difficult because of language barriers, but overall I highly recommend Health Land Spa!

Very friendly staff. They do take the time to make you feel comfortable. The music that is being.played while tou are there us very soothing. After having a very long, grueling week, it was nice to be pampered by Jerry doing the foot massage. I would highly recommend this location and staff.

Had massage with Helen. She was amazing. While she doesn’t speak a lot of English she was always attentive and listened to me when I felt her massage was too forceful. Hot stone hot towel message was invigorating and relaxing at the same time. A great experience

Based on the review I thought this was going to be a bad place for a couples massage but it ended being so amazing ! So calm and quiet , yes the phone rang here and there but that didnt distract me. Had great massage and the hot stones were a plus!

My fiancée and I paid $80 on Groupon for a Couples’ Massage; we would not return or recommend. The staff gave an okay full-body massage, but it was very difficult to communicate with them and we were very sore as a result. There wasn’t much privacy due to cloth dividers and close quarters, and the owner shamed us into giving what is an extremely generous 25% tip after our initial tip was not deemed “enough.” Ridiculous!

I love the one hour foot reflexology here. Its amazing relaxing. My first time it hurt but once I got use to it I cant live without it. Leon is my favorite worker there. Prices is great for an entire hour. They work from your knees down. You can save money by buying four sessions upfront, get fifth one free. Walk In or by Appointment. Very accomodating. Been there about 10 times now.

I seen alot of the comments some good some bad. So I was afraid to come. However, my experience wasnt bad of course they can be a little rough but thats expected from your asians spa. I feel like really good communication would be fine. The lady I had was nice. I would come back again soon

Review №23

My husband and I went for a couples massage which was $85. It was a good massage but sometimes there was a lot of pressure applied. I tried telling the lady but she didnt speak english. I did enjoy the hot stone feature towards the end. One thing I didnt like is that they have rooms with curtains and you could hear everyone outside those curtains. Also you can hear the phone ring. If you’re looking for a peaceful relaxing massage this is not the place.Another thing I didnt like was the fact that the man checking us out REQUESTED a tip. I usually tip but I have never been requested to do so. When I gave him the tip he said “oh thats it” thats not enought”. He caught me off guard and I told him thats all the cash I had. $10 for a tip is not bad in my terms but he made sure to let me know that was not a good tip! Please stop shaming your clients when you dont think their tip is enough. Its a tip, you dont get to decide what it should be!

Best tuina style massage I’ve ever had. Very modest shop but with very skilled practitioners.

Review №25

Deep healing massage with hot stone therapy. Excellent therapy for sore muscles. Conveniently takes same day appointments. Reasonably priced packages. One would come here if they are open to deep healing and less about the spa like accommodations (e.g. massage head rests when faced down is not particularly comfortable). Otherwise, one of the best massages Ive had.

Review №26

I got the package for a couples massage and it was PAINFUL. I told the lady less pressure and she continued with MORE pressure. She would bend my arm in ways that she made my shoulder pop out of place. Both ladies towards the end grabbed our legs and picked it up raised it high then dropped them. It was very unpleasant. I got the massage 2 days ago and Im still sore. The person massaging me & my boyfriend kept talking to each other, my person kept leaving for multiple occasions, and their phone was ringing. My skin broke out in hives too afterward too.

Review №27

Could be cleaner, it smells like a litter box. The massage itself was okay, however we were unable to communicate any preferences. The owner is rude and shamed us into tipping more, as mentioned in other reviews. This was very embarrassing as he did so in front of other customers.

Review №28

Went there after work to get a body massage, the place smelled like mildew, the women I got beat the hell out of me, when I told her she was hurting my lower back she proceeded to keep elbowing me harder and harder in my lower back. Was not relaxing at all. I ended up walking out stiffer and my back bruised from top to botttom. Ended up going to the ER that night bcuz I couldn’t even lay on my back or get comfortable, the pain was just to much. If you would like to get your butt handed to you for 45 bucks this is the place.

Stars are relative to the cost which is crazy low for the quality and length of service. Traditional Mandarin acupressure reflexology foot massage by traditional Mandarin family. Ask for Kevin.
