The older masseuse is extremely rude and does not have any kind of manner. She was so much in a rush that ended the session right at 50min instead of 60min. I repeatedly and respectfully asked her to use more pressure but she still kept playing around. Save your time and money and visit a decent place instead.

Great massages here! I am from Dallas but I come back every time I’m in town. They do a great job. We always call ahead for groups since it’s usually 4 – 6 of us getting a massage. Definitely my go to massage here in Houston. We always leave happy and relaxed.

I always come back to this place even though it is so far from central Houston. Here is what you need to know: This is a Chinese massage salon. Not a River Oaks Spa. Do your research so you know the difference. Purchase the $ 20 foot massage. This really means an hour long full body massage. You are fully clothed, but wear something comfortable to be massaged in. I suggest yoga or form fitting clothes. They tend to give relatively hard massages so don’t be afraid to ask them to not massage so rough. You will start by soaking your feet in a warm tea spa while they work on your face and head. Next, hands, arms then feet and legs. After this part you will move to a massage table where you will have your neck, back legs, arms, etc. Again, you will be dressed so wear something comfortable for a massage. You pay when you leave. Tip between $ 5-$ 10. They do their best to keep it quiet, which I’ve noticed other Chinese massage salons have trouble in this area and don’t care if people are talking. The place is clean with a calming environment. Employees are friendly. And the massages are cheap!!!

Kind of like Soul Inn Reflexology but more dinky. It’s a run-of-the-mill foot massage place in Chinatown. Nothing really much to say that sets it apart from everyone else. Kinda has a weird plumbing smell though.

The worst massage I have ever had. I’ve had plenty before and this was pure utter torture. It was very that they do not know what they are doing and are not licensed therapists. I was left with bruises and bones that ache. Horrible horrible massage.

Wow $ 20 foot massage!!! Tony did amazing massage!!! It was incredible relaxing time and knocked me into sleep quickly. The place was nice and clean, soaking feet in lovely green tea bath tub. Front desk lady was not super friendly but who cares? I definitely come back next time!

There was a «foot massage only» option for $ 20 and a «30 min foot 30 min body» massage for $ 30. «Foot massage only» option however actually already includes arms legs thighs shoulders face scalp back! So idk what the difference is but don’t get jipped! Wear sweat pants and a tshirt for convenience of massage, and take off your watches jewelry earrings necklace! Don’t wear makeup as they do some face massaging. Lights could be more dim. Place wasn’t dark and serene enough. Water wasn’t hot enough for my foot soak. Halfway through they make you transfer to another room for the back massage part. May go to another place where their massage chairs have the face insert already there for you to flip on since id prefer not walking halfway. But other than that this place was decent.

I got a full body massage here and it was amazing. I have a lot of tension and knots in my back and my masseur did a great job working on my problem areas.

Been here 3 times. Its great. 1 hr massage for $ 20 plus about a $ 10 tip… total of $ 30 which is so awesome for the quality of massage you get. Anywhere else is double to quadruple the price easily.

I only come here if I am in need of a quick fix bc trust me this is not anywhere near the quality of a spa massage. It is clean and sometimes it can be quiet but it can get a tad noisy. They also«require» you to leave at least a $ 10 tip… Which I think is a little steep bc the massage is only $ 20. So a 50%tip… Really? I do not think that they do that great of a massage on the body… It is below average. Now on the other hand the foot part of the massage is good. So to sum this place up. Don’t go there expecting a stellar experience bc you will defiantly leave disappointed. So remember you pay for what you get and at $ 20 .that’s not much

First time here. Massage itself was mediocre. I got the one hour foot massage and gave a 25% tip. I did not see the tip sign until the masseuse disapprovingly pointed to the sign. I was very shocked but read it carefully. The sign says«suggested» tip amounts. When did it become ok to «demand» a tip at all but to demand at least a 50% tip on top of that is ridiculous. Needless to say I am never coming back. Poor customer service.

$ 30.00 One hour foot and body massage! Place is very clean! Lady at the front can be a bit weird, but the massages are incredible! First time ever that I felt light on my feet! When I was getting body massaged with oil, I was kept being asked if the pressure was too much or not! They found some knots that I did not know I had and they straighten them out for me! When you get a body massage you get taken into a private room. The room is clean and the atmosphere is quite. Every now and then you might hear the phone ring or someone snoring, but I guess when you hear someone snoring then there doing a great job. They also use warm towels to rub the oil off your body! The feet massage was awesome! Warm water and 15 minutes each foot with a little leg massage. I’m sure if you ask for a leg massage they will do it. Staff is very friendly, but like I mentioned before the person up front can be a bit weird. There are plenty of signs that assure you not to tip your masseuse! They recommend to tip between $ 10-$ 15, but since the massage was so awesome I tipped $ 20! First time I ever left a massage location feeling like a feather. I would advice to set up an appointment, because they stay busy! We were just a walk in! There were groups of people coming in and out! This place is very busy, so if you have plans I wouldn’t recommend, if your not in a rush then this place is worth the wait! Waiting area there is water and you can make your own hot tea which is nice!

I’ve been here twice. It’s always a hit or miss with these foot massages. The first time here was decent. The guy that worked on me was good. He was thorough, and asked me how the pressure was. Everything was nice. Second time around? Total opposite. A lady worked on me this time. One of the worst experience. It was painful. Not relaxing, not thorough. I politely told her it was a bit much and she just giggles. As the hour was going by, her tip was getting less and less. Speaking of tipping! They expect you to tip min of $ 10! 50% of the service! They have a nice and clear sign at the register to point at if you don’t tip $ 10. Ridiculous. I asked for change because I wanted to give $ 8… And that’s being generous for the experience I had. But of course no one had change and I was over it and just wanted to leave. Lucky her to get $ 10 from me. Won’t be coming back.

I’ve been here many times. It used to be great but the last few times were inconsistent and just ok. The owner also criticizes your tips and i feel its probably because she pays the people who do all the work next to nothing. Also, the last few times I called to set an appointment only to arrive there and be told you have to wait 30 minutes. Whats the point of setting up an appointment and then making you wait 30 minutes? Today, I tried giving them one last try and set up an appointment. The person on the phone said no problem and didn’t even take my name. I called back and cancelled because I’m not driving over there again thinking I have an appointment only to be told you have to wait 30 minutes again. I called happy feet and set up an appointment and will continue to go there from now on. A+ foot massage is now a C at best and that’s too bad.

Let me start off by saying that this place gives good massages. $ 20 «Foot massage» basically includes a full body massage: head, neck, shoulders, back, feet, legs, etc. The atmosphere in this place is quiet(of course) and has enough privacy. Facility is clean! That’s always A+(pun intended) and closes at 10:00PM. Of course, this is no Massage Envy, but this place here is well worth the $ 20 bucks. They get the job done leaving you satisfied. Will be back for sure.

The very affordable $ 20 «foot» massage includes a neck and arm rubdown to start, a scalp massage for the second part, the foot massage of course, and a brief stint on the massage table. This is old school Asian massage with a lot of elbows, kneading, and borderline painful techniques(which feel great). It was so good, we went again for a second trip the next day!

I went with the«recommended» massage for $ 30 which includes a body massage — back, arms, legs, neck, head and maybe a little booty — and also some foot reflexology. The gentleman who worked on me had strong arms and did a great job working out the tension in my back and neck. The massage part was good, not great. I did feel less tense, and I knew the somewhat«painful» parts of the massage would be worth it in the end. The food/reflexology part was heavenly though! I don’t like anyone touching my feet, but when it comes to health benefits, I guess I’m all for it. They start you off with a foot soak in a warm tun of water with tea bags, followed by a foot massage and additional neck work. So here’s why this experience was 3-stars and not 4 or 5: *We had a 4:30 appointment, and while en route, we get a phone call telling us that their 5 o’clock showed up early and if we can be pushed back. «Er, no,» was my response, as we were almost there. ** They did both my beau and I at the same time and in the same room, which was great, but I’m curious to know why my guy(who’s 6’5″) was given the petite woman and all 5’2″ of me got the fella with obviously stronger arms. Again, my massage guy was good and seemed to set the pace for the massage, but my beau got shorted — so to speak — some parts of the massage because he’s much taller and you could hear the woman try and catch up. ** Patrons next to you using cell phones and no partition between the reception area and the reflexology. There should be signs — other guests want to relax. Tips for patrons: ** Don’t wear any jewelry because it gets in the way — no matter how dainty and small. Leave the necklaces and braceletes at home. Overall, I wouldn’t be opposed to going back, however I think I’d just do the reflexology part. I paid $ 45(with tip) for reflexology and«massage» and I rather just pay $ 60+ for a massage by a licensed masseuse who don’t use paper towels for the face portal of the massage chair or re-use the blankets after each session. I’m all about being thrifty, but to a point.
