Happy Feet Massage

This place… AMAZING! So I’ve passed this place so many times. I thought it was a podiatrist or a orthodic lab. Well if you want to relax and have your feet rubbed on until you are in a daze then turned over for a full back body… Pure heaven! And the prices are kind to the pocket. Totally forecast making this a part of my wellness care.

I went for the first time last week and absolutely LOVED my massage. I saw all of the great reviews and since this place is so close to my house, I thought I’d give it a try. It was wonderful. The ONLY downfall I would say is the lack of privacy. When you open the door, the massage tables are right there, so you are in there with possibly 2 other people. Also, if the phone rings, one of the therapists answers and makes an appointment right there. You hear the whole thing. A loud customer came in while I was getting my massage. However, with that, I am going again this weekend. It was awesome and inexpensive!

By far the best massage for the money. I love this place. Great massage, great price. Just be aware that this is not a pampering day spa. When you walk in there are 3 foot massage chairs plus a private room in the back. As others have said, bring cash because there’s a small surcharge if you use a card. Also bring quarters for the parking meters.

BEST MASSAGES EVER!!!
My boyfriend and I like to come here when we feel like treating ourselves. After the massage, your body will feel like loose jello– that’s how good it is.
1. $ 39 for 1 hour: Usually it’s 45 minutes feet and 15 minutes back/​neck/​shoulder, but you can request different parts of your body if you want. My boyfriend got 15 minutes on the knees and said it was heavenly.
2. Call ahead to make an appointment– only two people can be accommodated at one time, so it’s perfect for a couples massage!
3. Parking is right on the street, but we’ve never had a problem finding a spot across the street or out front.
4. Your feet will get soaked in warm water and then rubbed down with wet towels. They have really perfected the temperatures here.
5. Some of the pressure «hurts,» but they really work out every tense muscle. My boyfriend said that he had a pulled knot in his shoulder, but didn’t say anything about it. Regardless, his masseuse found the knot and worked it out so that the knot wasn’t even there afterwards!
6. We bring cash. They take cards, but there’s a surcharge.
7. After our massages, they gave us ice cold bottles of water. This is what I’m talking about for best service ever! I was thinking about how thirsty I was and voila, water appeared.
8. This place is a family run business and they really take their work seriously. They are also so nice and friendly. We were running a little late, and every time I called them, they said it was no big deal.
I really hope more Unilocalers come here and keep this business flourishing!

They are seriously the best around. I’m a regular and each time I go it’s always the best massage. They are so pleasant and give it their all every-​time! Also bring cash or if you use credit card there’s a few dollars added to it I believe. Not sure if you can tip on your card. So just bring cash to be safe!

Thanks you all for an awesome massage specifically Andy the rear pelvic/​hip work was excellent! See you again soon.

My boyfriend and I randomly found this place thanks to Unilocal!We were going to the more typical massage parlors with the aromatic lotions that let you sit in a serenity room to sip your wine before the massage but, we still didn’t feel like we were getting what we were paying for. We wanted to find a place that would actually massage out the knots in your shoulder and neck or pain in your feet. Well, we found it and it’s reasonable priced! If you pay cash it’s cheaper. We typically get the 45 minutes feet and 15 minute back massage. They soak your feet for about 5 minutes before the «rub down» begins. This typically costs $ 39/​hr cash and $ 49/​hr credit. Or if you want more time on your back then it’s a little more money but, definitely worth it. We usually call the same day and come in whenever they tell us they are available.

I mean who doesn’t love getting their feet massaged and especially at a decent price?
They have many options for you to choose from 30−60−90 minute massages. All massages start with your feet soaking in a wooden bucket and then the massage commences. They do a through massage of both feet and then they flip you over and massage your back.
Two things to note.
1. You do not need to disrobe for this massage so it’s no fuss, no muss!
2. Make sure you call in advance to schedule an appointment even if you call an hour before because they do get busy and only have 1 or 2 people on staff at a given time.

Thanks for the review people I just got back! 30 minutes on my feet 30 minute on my body ($ 49)whoooooo hoooooo do I feel like a rubber band now. I can totally agree with the comments about initially being painful but I believe in self care and go quiet often to get massages, none of them were initially pleasant. I was a little nervous as to what it will feel like with my shirt on and a towel covering my shirt but boy oh boy did I feel every moment.
The man did my massage and the women was extremely pleasant. The smell when you walk in light music, the lights were at a good temperature it truly puts you in a peaceful place.
I scheduled my appointment for next Monday and will treat my son. Its inexpensive and a great experience. I found a new once per week spot. !

Really great foot massage. Low frills. High relaxation. They work hard and their rates are incredibly reasonable so consider tipping generously.

Hidden away in the center of downtown Catonsville. Mom and Pop shop. All reviews are correct about customer service, etc… It is very small so call ahead. They added one more therapist to assist with the workload. Wife and I just got back from walking all day at the ren fest and needed to give our feet attention. Decided to drop in and boy was it a great call. Felt like I was walking on pillows after.
Support the mom and pop shops!!!

Small Mom and Pop’s place on Frederick road. They both speak mainly Chinese and little English but o man can they work wonders with their hands. I don’t think they were professionally trained as Masseuse but they are pretty darn good with foot massage and whole body massage. I felt every knot in my shoulders/​back pop and my muscles were sore the day after (a good sign of strong hands/​massage).
Previous reviews speak for themselves. They are the sweetest people, working hard for their money, their services are good and consistent, and they don’t try to rip you off. They also have a card/​stamp where if you get 10 stamps (I think) your next massage is free. Due to small space and staff numbers, they can only take 2 clients at a time, always call before to make sure they can take you and they will.
Totally worth the visit!!!

This massage scratched itches I didn’t even know I had. We both got the hour long foot massage, of which ~20 minutes was dedicated to a back massage. It was really a full body, back SIDE massage. No complaints here!
Both massages were a bit painful initially. The other reviews are true. However, the way they administer pressure somehow doesn’t make it a bad pain… if that makes sense? It’s just the tension leaving the body.
There were many points where I felt a combination of a deep itch being scratched with almost a tickle. It was heavenly. I have an old lumbar injury and her back massage got out all of my pain. I’ve always erred on the side of expensive spa massages that apparently were way too gentle!
The couple who runs the place is very sweet. And the massage was only $ 80 (before tip) for the two of us.
And btw, both of us have not been this relaxed in a long time. We had lunch in the downtown area afterwards and had the BEST nap when we got home. True, restful sleep.

Big time AGREE with the other reviews!
A few comments to add:
1. Very sweet «mom and pop» shop in the heart of downtown Catonsville
2. Perfect setup for two clients — there are two big amazingly comfy massage chairs in the main room, so it’s really ideal for couples massage or a couple of girlfriends… not sure where they would put you if there were more people!
3. Excellent neighborhood to enjoy walking around before or after the bliss treatment! Ideal for a «day out».
Happy Feet hit all the marks for me – a sweet local place run by two professionals who treat you with kindness. Nothing fancy, just straight up MASSAGE in a unpretentious setting — you pay for the service without funding someone’s decorating budget or high end admin!
Happy Feet, I *will* be back!

Great place, ran by 2 Chinese people. They remember their guests and preferences. Price is very reasonable. Always gives a water at the very end. Next time I will try one of the inner rooms. Would prefer this place over Massage Envy for sure

Visiting the west coast a few times and receiving the best 20.00 foot massages had me looking on Unilocal for something local. I think I found it, it’s just not as cheap. For 40.00 you can get a wonderful foot massage.
I opted for 30 mins for foot and 30 mins for back. I didn’t want the foot massage to end. I will be returning strictly for the foot massage. The back was a little too rough for my taste and not focused.
Thanks Happy Feet. My feet are happy!

Looks like the LA trend of foot massages have found its way into Catonsville via Happy Feet Massage.
LA boasts of $ 15, hour long foot massages, but you’ll never find that anywhere on the east coast. However, $ 39 for a 45 min foot massage and 15 minute back rub is better than any deal you’ll find in the area. Note that credit cards are accepted, but there’ll be a $ 2 – 4 surcharge depending on the base price of your massage.
At Happy Feet, the masseuses are able to accommodate whatever pressure you are comfortable with. I believe it’s run by a Chinese family; they provide information on Chinese pressure points and what each area on the feet signify. The foot massages here put licensed massage therapy establishments to shame.

Wow… All I can say is BEST FOOT MASSAGE I’VE HAD IN YEARS!!!
$ 39 for a full hour? Are you kidding me? On top of that, they give a discount for first timers, so I only paid $ 29 for a full hour of awesomeness (not counting tip of course)!!! I also got a last minute same day appointment. I would recommend calling ahead since there were happy customers there both before and after me.
I’m picky about my massages, and I mean PICKY. I don’t enjoy shelling out loads of cash at a high end place in hopes to get a decent therapist and I have learned to avoid «massage envy» like establishments like the plague (I’d rather not be rubbed down by an inexperienced unprofessional who reeks of cigarettes and wants to talk my leg off and ends up transferring all their negative mojo to me by the end of the massage). I’m a former massage therapist so yes, I’ve seen it all and I KNOW not all massage therapists are created equal. Happy Feet delivered on all accounts. My therapist kept her trap shut the entire time, was professional, and honed in on my problem areas like an experienced massage therapist should. She had strong hands and delivered the perfect amount of pressure the entire massage.
The facility is small and quaint. I truly wouldn’t change a thing and I will most certainly be back SOON! The selfish side of me hopes the secret of this hidden gem doesn’t spread too far and wide. I’d truly hate to have to book my appointments out weeks in advance but, I certainly would if that’s what it took to keep my feet as happy as they were today:)

This place is awesome for a bargain hunter. Definitely an awesome find. The foot massage was AMAZING. I am constantly on my feet at work so on my day off this is perfect for rejuvenating my tired body.

This place is fantastic. You will feel so good afterwards and so relaxed. You will wonder how you survived before coming and and promise yourself to now wait so long before coming back again.
An hour long massage is an unbelievable bargain. It starts with a foot soak and while your feet are soaking they massage your arms and shoulders. Once your feet have soaked they work on your feet, ankles, and calfs for a fantastically long time (approx 40 minutes). As the work on one foot/​leg and it begins to feel great, I’m always amazed at how the other leg begins to feel «not great» in comparison. It makes you realize that you’ve been living and dealing with pain/​discomfort that has been building up slowly over time… And you realize that all you had to do is come to Happy Feet and let it all melt away!!!
After they have worked over your feet you lay down and they work on your back for about 10 – 15 minutes. This includes some pretty deep tissue massage on the back, glutes, I-​band and hamstrings. As a person who loves my regular visits to my chiropractor, I find the back massage almost as satisfying as my chiropractic adjustments. One of these days I want to schedule Happy Feet and the Chiropractor on the same day. I might die of relaxation and contented feelings of well being.
The ambiance is calm and humble and makes everyone feel at ease and welcome. There’s no need to remove any clothes other than your shoes and socks, so this is a fantastic option for people who feel uncomfortable stripping down to underwear for a traditional massage.
Try it. You won’t be disappointed.
