Qitopia

This is an absolutely amazing place! Great prices services and motif. The gals that work here are not the best at english, but will give you an amazingly relaxing therapeutic massage.
Try it out, you’ll be amazed!

60 degrees, dark, non-​English speaking man. Left me in the cubicle (these are not rooms) — did not tell me anything. Started my massage through a big thick blanket. No music, no warming pad, no heat. After 10 minutes, I asked him if he was doing the whole massage through the blanket. He pulled the blanket down and he started with the oil — not heated oil — cold oil in a cold dark room. No thank you…
Time for me to leave… I was out of there in less than 15 minutes. I have had many, many massages. Worst experience ever.

First impression was very positive. I used a Groupon for $ 34 for an hour of Asian massage. The demeanor, atmosphere and hard work ethics of this place supersede many of the salons I’ve tried in the Lehigh Valley Area. I will be back at full price, because to me, this is one of the few places that actually know what they are doing when it comes to massage, although I have not tried Kim’s Healing Center in Easton as yet. I was able to get right in for an appt back in August. For some reason I couldn’t enter my review then due to a MAC/​Safari error in adding a new business. Now that someone else added it, I’ll post that review now.
A quiet and courteous Asian woman and a man greeted me when I arrived and handed me a brief questionnaire used only for them to know what areas to focus on during the massage and whether you want to be relaxed or energized. They speak very little English, so if you have questions, make sure you call and speak to the man who answers the phone for them. He is very helpful, especially in giving directions. They are in the outlet strip mall to the left of the Wawa (across st. from Starbucks/Moe’s/Saladworks/Dickey’s BBQ shopping mall) on Schoenersville Rd. I’m sure you could request a masseur or masseuse, but it did not matter to me.
This big room is full of many small divider rooms, with curtains to the entrances and the upper half of the walls are translucent, so they can actually see your shadow through them, and know when you are lying down and ready for them to enter the room. The room is not spacious, nor is it cramped. It is just right and the entire place is very clean and airy. There is a small rolling chair you can sit on, to take off your shoes, and 4 hooks on the wall to hang your clothes on, with the massage table in the middle. My entire massage was done face down. The face pad where your face rests was very comfortable. (These face supports can often be a problem for me because I have so many neck issues, so this was NICE they had one of the best, comfortable ones in the area.) I had many neck and back and hip problems I wanted him to focus on energizing. I don’t know if you simply want a relaxing massage if they would have you turn over half-​way.
DavE worked on me (pronounced Davey). He was a very professional, polite, hard worker who was always smiling; he did not waste one minute. I undressed, laid on the table, draped the gauzy cover over my own back. He purposely waited about 3 minutes for me to get used to my surroundings in that position and then asked if okay to come in. He then asked me if the face support was okay for my neck. He worked inch by inch up and down both sides of my back with the gauzed blanket still on my back. Then he peeled the gauzy blanket down to my hips for the rest of the massage. His hands worked deftly on the areas that I marked on my questionnaire. I am always in pain and was moreso, because of gardening lately. He worked every inch of every muscle in my back starting on the left side, down and back up, down and back up, then repeated that on the right side, then he zeroed in on areas, such as neck, upper back, mid-​back and lower back.
When he was done, he drug hot steamed towels up and down my back until the high heat left them, then laid them on my back, which felt oh so wonderfully relaxing!!! and then wiped all the lotion he used off of my neck, back, shoulders, arms and hands. He did this twice.
DavE asked if everything was okay before he left, and I reminded him that I had asked for footwork. Even though he had performed his entire hour, he worked on my feet for another ten minutes, but did not charge me for the extra time. When I was dressed, I returned to the front counter and tipped him generously for his positive, no-​nonsense attitude toward pleasing the customer. Pure gentleman that he was, he even walked me out the door to the sidewalk where I was parked. Wow! Courteous and full of manners, how sweet — we could use so much more of this kind of behavior in the valley.
Two days have passed since my «Energizing» massage and my body still feels so much more rejuvenated than it has in a long time. DevE rid me of the sciatica that was paining my lower right backside. I’m not saying he got rid of every single pain I had, because my body is riddled with it, BUT! I can definitely feel that because of the way he gently but firmly pressed on every inch up and down my back and then again and again in the focus areas, he opened up lymph and energy passageways that are allowing my body to heal even after the massage.

This location is a bit hard to find. It is located adjacent to the parking lot of a Wawa gas station and there is no sign in front of the location to indicate that you are at the spa.
Once inside, the set up is very similar to the type of set up as the massage parlors located within malls. There are no separate rooms for each of the massage tables but cubicle type walls and curtains instead. It is not fancy like some of the more upscale spas in the area but the massage was acceptable and the staff was friendly and helpful. Qitopia also has a nice range of hours which they are open which makes scheduling an appointment quite easy. I still prefer Hand and Stone Massage better however because the ambiance and experience is much more relaxing and the cost of the massage is comparable.
