Serenity Relaxation Center

They gave me and my husband the best massage we have ever experienced! They were really nice too. We used a groupon deal and it was so worth it. Go try them out and you will know what I mean! They gave us the hot stones massage and it was heaven.

I have a nice
made me so relax. the owenr and master are all professional. I always coming here for two times a week.

This place begs for tips ! I had a foot massage and back massage which was under $ 50. The man followed me to the door and asked could I give more than the $ 10 tip I gave him. He proceeded to show me other customers receipts that showed $ 20 tips. This was not my business, and should have been private info. Rude staff, I will not ever go back.

I love this place! I’ve been several times for the 1 hour foot massage which is really a clothed full body massage. It’s only $ 20 and both my mom and I have ended up with someone great! When I go there now, I know who to ask for and my last massage was amazing! It was better than the last full body massage I paid $ 100 for somewhere else.

This place is Great
I got the 1hour foot message for $ 20 my first time there I didn’t know what to expect. The place was very clean and professional. I was thinking they where only going to message feet. But the man didn’t he message my whole body shoulders, neck, thighs and back all for just $ 20 dollars now that’s a deal ! I will defiantly go back every month and even better it’s just down the street from my home.

I have been going here every few months ever since this place opened. I have had some decent experiences however today was just horrible. One of the big problems here is the high turnover rate. Every time I go there, there seems to be a new receptionist and new massueses. Today, I got «Tim» an elderly gentlemen after being assured by the receptionist that I would be getting someone who could deliver an extremely hard massage. Let’s just say I have had massages by quite a few women who were stronger than he was. To make it worse, he sneezed and farted during my session.
What really got me was when he said «Are you Indian.»
After I said yes, he says «Indian people don’t tip good.»
This really ticked me off — although I normally tip $ 15 – 20, due to the poor massage and stereotypical comments, I tipped 0. I also mentioned his comments to the receptionist, who suddenly couldn’t understand English…

Had a wonderful experience. For those complaining. the prices here are such a good deal what do you expect. My dad and I came in for a 1hr foot massage. Not only do they do the foot they also massage your body and head/​face. I requested a female masseuse for me but they had to switch to a male in the middle of the massage which was fine by me. He was actually even better! I have paid way more for a massage like the one they gave my dad and I. They work hard & Luther my masseuse really worked on the knots I had in my back and neck, we tipped them 60%. Massages at spas in hotels cost me in the hundreds. This is a cheap yet well done massage, for the price, it doesn’t get any better!

Today was the worst. The 130p appointment I got was very disappointing. Didn’t like the experience at all. Don’t like that the bathroom was next door. The toilet flushes so loudly. I feel worse now, before I came in :(

A random but great find for me and the hubby today. Needed some quick/​cheap massages and this was pretty closeby. This isn’t a fancy place, no fancy robes, relaxing scents etc… Just basic massage chairs and a dim room. They put your feet in a tub of hot water, and get to work. Overall the massage was good, the guy who worked on me really put his Elbows into my back– honestly not the most comfortable thing but I felt better afterwards.
We need more places like this in the area… I lived in vallejo and there were reflexology spots everywhere (decent ones at that). I Was nervous because right next door is a Pakistani restaurant and let’s just say as soon as I opened the car door the scents came busting thru to my nose… So I have a couple suggestions:
1) close the front door so the smells from the restaurant next door don’t waft in
2) have the massage therapists ask about pressure– they just start working and don’t check in with you on pressure
3) maybe burn some comforting scents/​candles

Small little family owned reflexology center. Legit chinese people doing their thing, no fancy smancy American spa crap. Hardcore, elbow in your muscle into your soul, waves of relaxation through your very reason for living. Definitely a good place to get a massage to deal with body aches. Not a place to serve you Chai tea and make u sit in a silly robe

They deserve at least three stars because my massage WAS good, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming.
I would have rated them higher because the hot stone massage itself was great, but the masseuse pulled the sheet together with my underwear ALL the way down past my butt and then some, and then left my naked body out and exposed while she continued to massage me. I felt very uncomfortable all out in the air like that. If you aren’t as conservative as I am though and that wouldn’t bother you, the massage felt GREAT and was very relaxing.
I personally won’t be returning though.

Made a 10 AM appointment by phone. Since a walk in would be a waste of time. Oh! & so was the 1hr oil rub that cost $ 45.00. The sign outside read… $ 39.99 for 60min foot & 45 min body massage.

I was going there at least 3 times a month prior to the change of ownership. Marvin was great but I don’t think he works there anymore.
This place has really gone down hill since they changed ownership. Both time that I have gone there after the ownership change have been horrible.
They overbooked appointments both times. I will never go back there again!

This was the worst foot massage ever. The one who was massaging me talk the whole time with the one who was massaging my girlfriend. Then as soon as we were putting on her shoes they asked for there tip. That will be the last time I go there… Very unprofessional. …

This place does not honor their own gift certificates! I was told even though it was purchased here with their name and address it could only be redeemed at one of their other locations. This did not sit well with me! After arguing with the receptionist for several minutes and having her actually laugh in my face my gift certificate was finally honored!
My gift certificate was for a 60 minute massage but I only received 50 minutes which included someone knocking on the door and my masseuse actually leaving the room to go talk to whomever was knocking!
I will NEVER return to this place! Why do you sell gift certificates and not honor them? These people could use some lessons on customer service!

Treated my boyfriend to a massage. He said he loved it! He got a full body deep tissue. He said it was very deep in the beginning then got lighter throughout. He enjoyed it! Cheap !

This is my first time here and my experience is great. The staff are very friendly and cheerful. The foot massage package I bought covers the body also the $ 20 was worth it! The place is clean and neatly arranged. It’s not a fancy Hollywood style massage ambiance but for me it’s okay. The area has plenty of parking spots and surrounded by a lot of food place and Starbucks is just a minute away. Don’t take my word for it try it yourself. My overall experience is great.

I like this place enough that I bought the «buy 10 get 1 free» package for feet reflexology. I paid $ 200, and got to take home 10 feet reflexology passes to use as my leisure or to pass them to others as gifts. Awesome!
I used to go to this place in Oakland, but it’s quite a drive. A solid 20 miles to Grand Avenue. I loved the place though, don’t get me wrong. But I needed a place closer and living near the ghettos has it perks! $ 20 for an hour long massage is worth it. Why? I had my ass handed to me on a plate today. I screamed in pain and the dude laughs. I like it.
It’s in a dead shopping center. Check your car twice for being locked and belongings well hid. But the perks of paying low low prices for living near the ghetto? Priceless.
Reading the reviews prior to going, I was concerned about «HOW MUCH TO TIP»…I wasn’t asked before the massage to tip and I only brought a $ 10 anyways. I wasn’t going to read body language or faces, but I felt like that was just right.

I came here twice once by myself and the second time with my friend. When i came here the second time i called for an appointment so me and my friend could get a massage together but when we got there i still had to wait. The massage was good but at the end of the massage they went up to my friend and asked wheres my tip. Ok i thought that was kind of rude. I think that was very unprofessional. We told them we were gonna get change from the cashier and a lady came out from no where said we can give you change here and we basically stood in the employee area and watch her get money from her purse. and when we gave them our tip they looked at us as if it wasn’t enough. So remember to tip right away

Serenity Relaxation Center is the newest massage place from the owners of Golden Island, which is located inside the Pacific East Mall. If you’ve ever been to Golden Island, you know they have great prices on full body massages, but an even better foot reflexology deal. For $ 20, you are treated to 60 minutes of foot work, head and shoulders, and arms and back. Golden Island can get pretty busy at times and besides I was interested in going to their new location. The San Pablo Towne Center is pretty much a ghost town, which leaves Serenity with very little (if any) foot traffic.
Unlike Golden Island, we did not call ahead, but simply walked-​in and were quickly taken to the back. The front office is a little on the small side, but the back is very open and houses plenty of massage chairs and private rooms. An over-​sized flat-​panel TV and a faux fireplace welcomes guests. On my visit, I believe there were only two CMT’s on duty, as we could hear customers being told to come back in an hour. The massage is exactly the same as from Golden Island; however, my massage chair was squeaking way too much and became a little distracting. I have to admit I was a little disappointed in my massage, as I felt the CMT put rather little effort. However, there have been times where the same can be said about Golden Island. Ultimately, it can be a roll of the dice, as every massage therapist has their own style.
I will come back, especially with this location only being two exits down from my home. Also, I do hope I simply had an «off» experience, as I’m a fan of their Pacific East Mall location, but I wouldn’t mind avoiding the crowds and saving the time and money by coming to Serenity.
