ABC Relax Station

You need at least one person who speaks English to explain the different massage options. Led to a chair to sit for 5 minutes, after nobody came I left. Go to the one by Champlain and Perrin.

Today was my first time trying out this place. There were two nice ladies who greeted me. However, both didnt seem to speak any English. They kept nodding and pointing at the price list when I asked them questions. Therefore. no answeres were given to me. One of them took me into a private massage room. I asked her if i should change now but she just kept nodding her head. Still no English. I take off all my clothes except for my underwear and lie face down with the sheet over me. She comes back to the room and says «no no». I guess she wanted me to lay on top of the sheet and cover myself with a towel. That would have been good to know… lol
The place was very quiet with a nice relaxing music in the background. I think I was the only customer there at the time. The massage was good, have had better. Her pressure was harder than I’d like but tolerable. The hot stones were a first for me. Was very hot at first but felt good around my shoulders.
Overall a good place. Will probably be back.

Excellent massages for a great price! The lady worked out all of my knots! Relaxing and very clean atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back especially because this place is close to where I work!

I was pretty disappointed. I know, I know… How could you not enjoy a foot massage? It’s just that the lady wore latex gloves the whole time and I guess that’s just what they do because I saw the lady (massaging the guy next to me) wearing them too. Half way thru I asked if she wouldn’t mind taking them off and they made a whole big stink about it and it made me really embarrassed so I told them never mind. I have been to lots of these walk in massage places and this is the only one who wears latex gloves. And I’m just not a fan.

Used to come here all of the time until the best massage therapist moved to LA. I decided to give it a try again and it was as predicted… awful. If you’re looking for a $ 50 massage and do not want to relax then here’s your spot! Truly a waste of money. Never going back there again. Go to Thai Massage on Shaw and Marks. That place is amazing.

**Yelp map is wrong for this place. Its located in Vons shopping center**
Can’t beat the price! I paid around $ 50 for a 45 min foot massage and 45 min full body massage.
The foot massage was pretty relaixing. I was seated in an open area where I could soak my feet in warm water. I’m not sure if anything was added to the water. Didn’t seem like it to me. The lady then proceeded to massage my head, neck, shoulders, arms and hand. She then provided the foot massage. It was pretty relaxing and found myself dozing off a couple times. There was soft music playing in the background.
After my 45 was up, I moved in to a private room where I was to get my full body massage. This was also very relaxing. For a little asian lady, her hands were strong. I had to ask her to soften up her technique! I mentioned that I would like her to focus on my back and shoulders and that was exactly what she did for the majority of the time. She then left and came back with hot stones. I don’t know about you, but I’ve never had a hot stone massage before and I have nothing to compare it to. But my experience was great. I thought the stone was a bit hotter than I would have liked but it felt really good. I’m sure it helped with the tension also.
The last 10 mins of the massage was on my extremities.
She was very nice and professional.
Definitely the spot if you want a low cost massage.
They accept cash and credit :)

This is a five star place in my book of inexpensive massages. I put it down one star because although I had a great foot reflexology massage, they didn’t do arms, back or anything else. They did a great job at concentrating on my neck as I had asked, but I’m used to getting more a quick, full massage (at least turn me over for 5 minutes and rub my back) in 60 minutes’ time. I remember it was quite inexpensive, the place is very nice and clean and they are open late in the evening. All pluses in my book and I’ll be back at Easter time.

I came in with a kink in my back, probably from the back workout I did the prior day-​I always overdue it. Anyhow, for about the 1^st 10 minutes or so that king was hurting pretty bad, but then I started to get relief from the massage therapy. I did not convey I had any issues to the masseuse and she didn’t seem to speak English anyway. Very thorough and balanced massage! I left feeling that I found a really great and affordable place to go when I feel the need. No appointment was necessary, they took me in right away.

wow! Never had a massage before and let me tell you these ladies don’t mess around. They are good at what they do but a few time almost made me scream when working on some knots in my shoulders. However I will be back and probably in a routine basis. This place is clean, nice relaxing sound. The ladies are courteous and but do they mean business when it comes to the massage. Could bring a grown man to tears but I left feeling amazing.

One hour massage paid $ 40. The girl massage my back for nearly an hour her nose was running and she had the sniffles. I ask her to take a break them blow her nose she said she was okay. The girl was a young Asian girl polite but not friendly.

I always get the 60 min oil massage and it is worth every penny of the $ 40 I spend. Each person that has worked on me has been amazing! They really work on each spot they needs work — I don’t even have to say where to work, they find it no problem! With the oil massage, you also get hot stones which they massage your back with. AMAZING! The setting is so serene and nicely kept with such calming music. I highly recommend this place! Ps — you do strip down to your underwear for the oil massage.

Pretty good cheap massage. I think it was $ 35 for 30 minutes foot/​30 minutes back. They really focus on the knots too. Surprised at how good it was for the price. Next time I would just do the back massage, the reflexology wasn’t all that great.

Holy wow this place is not for the faint of heart.
I’ve seen this place a few times and decided to try it out. It’s quiet with soft (chinese?) music, clean and nicely decorated. There are 4 stations for foot massages in the front, then closed-​door rooms for back massages in the back.
I had a 30 min foot and 30 min back massage for $ 35. The reason I say not for the faint of heart is because these ladies are strong! my goodness. I should have been warned when another patron made a joke about the pressure for her foot massage and then someone said «no pain no gain». heh.
The foot massage was interesting, I am assuming it is the «foot reflexology» style where the rub different nooks and crannies of your toes, foot, ankle because that is what I got. I have had this before so strong pressure and occasional discomfort were not a surprise. I thought it was still enjoyable but if you have weak, sensitive or ticklish feet, I recommend saying something up front.
I moved to a room for the back massage part. And then this nice lady proceeded to massage, squeeze, pound and slap my poor self into oblivion. I couldn’t believe such strong pressure came from the same person. And the slapping (for lack of a better word) appears to be an actual technique. Kind of like a «ta-​da!!» at the end. I wish I could have recorded my own thoughts throughout the back massage… probably some gurgling, some oo/​ahhing, some holy crap, some laughing thinking wtf is happening, and so on. For a moment I even mentally nicknamed her Helga, and wondered if she thought I was some bodybuilder from the way this was going. Even funnier, was that I think the lady was a little tired too after that, she sighed and giggled when it was over.
The sign at the front had a range of prices from $ 35 – 60, with shiatsu back massages with oil lotion listed at the top and foot massages and combos listed at the bottom.
So a solid «deep tissue» massage, eastern style. Highly recommend if you need to get out some knots. I definitely had some in my upper shoulders which she attacked with purpose. I think technically the chair-​massage is an easier position to rub out the upper back, so still prefer Foot Reflexology up the block.
I would go back if I was in the mood to be rolled out like play doh that’s been left out a couple days. I’m sure there will be those days.

Best massage I have had and great price
