Far East Health Care Center

Awesome massage at really great prices! The rooms and beds are very clean and comfortable and the atmosphere Is quiet and relaxing. The staff is very professional and they often have available appointments when I need it. I always leave feeling recharged and relaxed. Try this place if you’re looking for a legit affordable massage.

I’ve come here a few times and the foot massage and price is hard to beat. The challenges are a hit and miss with noise levels. I understand that the foot massage is close to the front door with the traffic. The biggest challenge tends to be with the person massaging talking and having conversations with other employees while giving me a foot massage.
If they could stop talking consistently during a massage, I’m happy to give a higher rating as they are pretty good with the massage at a great price.

Wow! You got to be kidding me! This is the second times that this have happened.
First time this happened was when I brought my girlfriend here for a nice massage a year ago and she gave her masseuse 15% tips which is $ 10 out of $ 40 price for one hour. The masseuse said she has to give at least $ 20. My friend and were so surprised because we have never heard that before. I had foot massage and it’s cheaper, $ 20 for an hour. Also he was really good and I do appreciate when I received good foot massage so my tip was over 50% and my masseuse didn’t ask for more.
Today is the second time this happens. I took my boyfriend here to get a massage. Since we got here early, the foot masseuse is not here so I didn’t get any massage. My boyfriend went ahead and get one. I went to sit in the car waiting for him. An hour later he came out and said they made him give her $ 20 tips. He actually gave the masseuse $ 10, that’s 25% tips already but she said for one hour she expect $ 20 tips. So regardless of if the session was good or not they are making you pay 50% tips.
I will never come here again. There are many massage parlors to go to. I have never seen this kind scheme before.
I gave two stars because I love the foot massage from the guy masseuse. It was right on point.

I just had an awesome massage by Trudy !! Wow do I feel great and only 40 $ for a full hour !!! highly recommend Trudy she gives the best neck massages ever!! and no appointment.

Yes I am back. After a two month absence I came back home where a real massage just happen. I decided to have a massage with Jenny and all I can say it was really relaxing and brought me back to the good old times I know my previous review was not too good but I have to apologize for what I said. this is a good place this is a clean and professional place and very therapeutic.
My massage with Jenny was pure magic it was relaxing it was soothing and very well. If I may say so
I highly recommend anybody to come here and give a good massage. the place is clean and the service was great and Jenny and I had a great conversation. I ask you to please come and get a good massage for $ 40 an hour you cannot ask her any things better. You can also ask for the lovely Apple in the wonderful Coco.
This place has been around longer than any of the other local places which have tried to open but ended up closing because of illegal sex trade and here we have Far East health center still standing which must tell you something that this place is legitimate. Yes I will be back for more massages and 2 have a good time in the way of talking to these nice girls that work here they work really hard for what they do and nobody should be disrespecting them

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE! My husband took me here today so I could get a massage, they guy who works at the front desk is RUDE, it looks creepy inside, the lady who is the masseuse gave dirty looks, was loudly talking in their language, so he kept demanding payment before massage, obviously they where talking about me. I let him know when my husband picks me up he would be paying. He kept demanding for the payment saying oh we take credit card oh we take credit card” I said no nevermind you’re way too pushy and I left. DO NOT GO THERE!!!

I came here twice already. The service about 1 year ago was great but coming back now was a nightmare. The lady who did the massage was demanding a tip of $ 20 and she says next time she will give me a longer massage. Massage was ok but she has the nerve to demand how much a customer has to give her. I don’t mind giving a great tip but pls. be professional.

do not patron this business. these people are not professionals. when the massage was finished the woman that massaged me aggressively demanded a 40% tip! what is the point of paying for a massage that is supposed to relax you when all i get is harassment on the way out? i will never come here again, and i will be reporting them to the bbb!

Thought it would be nice to treat my boyfriend and I to a massage. Boy was I wrong. The massage was so so. A lot of rubbing and not really massaging. The massage cost 40 dollars but on Unilocal it says 30. That was also disappointing. I didn’t think the massage was that great. So I didn’t feel the need to tip more then 5 dollars each masseuse. But they weren’t very happy with my gesture and demanded 20 dollars each. Which was not on a sign or on Unilocal.You can’t just demand a 20 dollar tip. I will never go back. Definitely NOT worth 120 dollars. I go to get a massage and I get tricked and a shitty massage.

Worst most lazy unprofessional massage I ever had. She only used one half assed hand the entire time. After I spent $ 60 she demanded a $ 25/​tip! Over 35% for what?! The worlds worst massage. Rude and a waste of money should have read Unilocal first.
I used to come here a lot in ²⁰¹⁰⁄₂₀₁₁ and it was great.
Should’ve stayed away…

Not a fan. The massage wasn’t that great and what really makes me give them 1 star is the fact that they ASKED for a tip. The lady literally stood in front of us (as to not let us leave) so that we could tip her. Even stuck her hand out!

I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN THIS FOOT MASSAGE «SPA» AGAIN!!!
I had been coming here regularly for five years… until just now. I would either have a one hour foot massage or a 60 – 90 minute full body massage, and I ALWAYS tipped at the very least 25%. Since the change of (massage) hands, I leaned towards getting the full body massage since Greg the reflexology guy (who was amazing) had left. I’ll admit, when I called in to make an appointment it was somewhat painful at times, because the woman who answered the phone was less than cordial, however she gave a great massage even though she lacked customer service skills or the ability to smile. In fact, during the Christmas holiday week she gave me a massage and I tipped her 40%, because she was that good, and well, it was the holidays. So, earlier this month I planned on starting the New Year on a relaxed note, and I went in for a massage. Just as I was about to get undressed, she knocked on the door and said I HAD to give her a $ 20 tip on a $ 40, 60 minute massage. I said «why are you asking me for a tip before the massage», and she said «because you always give a $ 7 tip no matter how long the massage!» I told her she had mistaken me for someone else, and that I would NEVER only give a $ 7 tip even for a $ 25 foot massage. Again, she insisted it was me. I told her she was insulting, she threw my $ 60 back at me, and I stormed out of there. I was so livid, and wanted to talk to the owner, so I called an hour later, and the phone just rang off the hook, resulting in more anger on my part. I think I am most angry about the situation, because this type of business is able to get away with it. Even though I am writing this review, the regulars who go there will still go there. They get a great, inexpensive massage, I get it. But I really have to wonder are so many people over tipping, so that when I tip 20−25% I am considered a lousy tipper? I have no worries that I will find another great place, but the incident was disappointing and embarrassing, to say the least. Oh, and here’s the really sad part… I had a massage «punch» card at this place, and my next massage was going to be free!!!

I am very disappointed, I received a mediocre massage and to top it all off the lady yelled at the end to give her 5 dollar tip «GIVE ME TIP!». Do not go here, it’s a waste of time.

I only put a star to be able to let clients know how rude the woman who answered the phone was, today, 10÷8÷2013. She talked to me like I was doing her a favor by making an appointment! I have been to this place lots of times and had been happy with the massage but courtesy is crucial in this business! If you don’t know how to answer the phone and be courteous, don’t! People get a massage for relaxation and to get somebody on the phone with a bad attitude is no way to win clients!

Handed the lady a $ 10 bill as I was leaving my hour body massage and the lady responds by telling me «You give me more. I give you body massage not foot massage. I only get tip my boss keep money»
I was totally caught off guard especially because I had asked for her to break my 20 dollar bill before she even started so that I can give her my tip afterwards and she did by giving me 2 tens.

Because I’m not one to argue and I did make her stay 15 minutes past closing, I ended up giving her my $ 20 for tip, but that doesn’t make up for the fact that you should NEVER ask for more tip money from a customer. It’s just rude and embarrassing! My service was only $ 40 so that means I ended up paying her 50% gratuity. I truly believe in paying gratuity when deserved but that doesn’t mean it should be mandatory.
I used to be a fan of this place until I found Holiday Spa in Castro Valley. My lady there hasn’t been working lately so I got desperate after work one day and decided to try this place out again. The guy here usually does a great job with foot massages so I never had a complaint until now. I’m usually not so picky when it comes to these types of establishments but I don’t know if I can let this one go.

So I put 4 stars, but I really want to do 3.5
I’ve had a 5 level of service here, and Ive had a 2 level of service here.
Last time I went, I saw Jenny. She was great. Made sure pressure was good. Was respectful and discreet with my nekkid body lying there.
Time before I went… O. o Not so good. Lady felt the need to rub my butt cheeks… a lot. Very creepy. I did not catch her name, so sorry fellow Unilocalers. But she was creepy looking, so maybe ask for no creepy looking ladies for massage? Unless you think a good massage is getting your buttcheeks rubbed… a lot.
First time I ever went, a girl named Faith (i think) did an EXCELLENT job.

I had went for a long bike ride and was feeling a little sore, So I thought it would be nice to get a Massage. So I rolled my Whip to FEHCC. I strolled in and asked for a Hr Message. Prepaid by Discover Card and went to Room number 4 .
My Massuese arrived to the room minutes later. She started working her magic. I started to get really relaxed and started to doze off. Man that Hour went by quick.
I tipped my Massuese and rolled out in my Whip to Adele.

I wanted to let you know that I no longer patronize this business.
The staff has turned over and I never found someone that I connected with after Greg left.
Also, the prices have increased significantly, since they only take cash, it’s not as convenient as some other spots.

I have a serious issue with going back to people who hurt me. Yes, I’m talking to you Asian lady who gets all the kinks out of my back but at a very painful price.
Honestly, I keep telling myself, this time will be the last time. But sure enough, I return because I’m in desperate need of a massage, you’re close to my home and it’s relatively cheap at $ 40 – 50 depending on who you get.
And not to deter business, because this might be up your alley, but seriously, this place is all sorts of strange. Earlier tonight, I could hear two guys come in and ask for a massage. One of them creepily asked for the «young one» because she makes his «shoulder? feel better» Huh, shoulder, right? He repeatedly kept asking for her and eventually is told to come back later tonight. Hmmm, I dunno about that?
Also, why is it that every time I come in, there are never any females going to get a massage? Maybe I’m being paranoid, but every single time I’m there, it’s only male patrons. How do I know? Because I can hear the conversations or weird noises going on in the other rooms. I really don’t care what happens there, but I would honestly like if you, Asian lady, could please concentrate on my calves as opposed to listening to what’s going on in the other rooms. Ok? Thanks.
But despite it’s awful service, uncomfortable beds and loud chattering between the workers, I reluctantly go back to feel human again. Yes, stress will put me in a zombie-​like killer mode, but their massages aid in making me feel slightly better. Somehow getting «beaten up» by a small Asian lady puts me in a more cheery state. I dunno. Don’t judge me.

This place sucked… I can’t believe I just paid money for someone to practically just hold my feet and laugh and giggle with her coworker the whole time. It was just getting ridiculous! And she had the nerve to ask my why I wasn’t asleep… um excuse me how do you expect me to sleep when you keep laughing?
Angel Feet in Oakland is better. At least the back massage part of the foot reflexology is done in the chair and not awkwardly sitting on an ottoman while hunched over.
