Chinese I Massage

This was the worst massage I have EVER BEEN TO!!! My boyfriend wanted to treat us to a massage and being this place just opened up next to his house we thought we would check it out. I left my underwear on because i didnt feel comfortable being completely nude. First RED FLAG they dont keep the sheet covering the body part their massaging. While massaging my lower back without any type of warning the lady tried pulling my underwear off. I told her to keep them on it was fine. I look over at my boyfriend and his massage therapist has him face down on his stomach BUTT NAKED massaging him. I was seriously so close to yelling WTF ARE YOU DOING?!? I felt so violated and tense i didnt know what to do. They massage your bare ass and its so fucking uncomfortable and AWKWARD. I literally RAN OUT after the massage was over. So horrible and if it wasn’t bad enough our masseuses kept talking during our massage. This place really needs to be shut down its disgusting and honestly violating

This place is excellent! Great prices and I love the mellow lighting and quiet ambiance. I got the 30min foot massage for $ 20. Shout out to my girl Claire! She was fantastic and super accommodating when I decided at the last min to add in a 20min chair massage. I love this place, Ill be back soon, and be bringing hubby with me. Thanks so much again Claire!

went here for the first time and it solved all my back problems. vivi is an excellent and the price is reasonable. Don’t know why others have some issues but my message was A1.

–5 stars if I could! They make u pay first which should have been my first red flag! Lady asked me if I wanted lots of pressure. I said yes… and it was soft. The place itself looks super shady and after I found out they are open till 11… which I found cool it’s open. Late then I realized. weirrd…it’s open «late». The place has that happy ending vibe to it. The WORST PART was after my massage while I was getting dressed the lady walked back in and just stood there… I was like «can I help you» she said «tip».like dang she couldn’t atleast let me get dressed And who demands a tip?! I say «ok» she still didn’t leave. so while I’m still getting dressed I grab my purse and give her a $ 10 bill. should be good since massage was $ 40…well not for her. she demanded $ 20 for a 1 hour massage. I felt super uncomfortable but gave it to her since she had me in a small dimly lit room still. and I booked it out of there… I will definitely be reporting to BBB as it looks like this is the trend here. I will NEVER go back

Seriously?!? Seriously. Zero stars. Dude, wtf. I don’t want to tip u a 40% for whatever the heck that was, cause it wasn’t a massage.

They shorted my husband 15 minutes on an hour massage. He mentioned it & the lady said they were busy even though all of the doors to the other massage rooms were open & therefor empty. Then to top it all off the lady had the nerve to ask for a tip. Don’t waste your time or money on this place.

The great thing about this place is that they are open late and their prices are reasonable. The bad thing is that they charge $ 10 extra for men, there is a $ 5 fee for paying with a debit card, and if they ask you how hard you want your massage and you say hard… it will still be soft. Also the ladies giving you the massage will ASK you for a $ 20 tip, even though they gave you a soft massage when you asked for a hard massage. My husband and I will not be returning to this place.

Warning!!! Don’t go here!!! This is a disgusting «happy ending» prostitution type of place. Should really be shut down or at least monitored by police. They touched in a completely uncomfortable and inappropriate way. I’m still disgusted!!! You’ve officially been warned!!!

A quick fix. They just are a little unorganized. I had a simple 30 minute massage and it took three different masseuse to get it done. One had a phone call the other had to tend an appointment. Not relaxing for sure but for 20 plus a 5 dollar tip I guess it works

Don’t waste your time or money. Health dept should shut this place down! This place should be Blacklisted. Due to the fact they «go there» as put by another reviewer, I would be hesitant to wonder what the heck I’m laying on… yuk. My guy griend said they therapist grazed his balls several times just to make an extra buck. They also did demand a hefty tip afterwards, and just for that we left them nothing! But yet people still patron their business.

Okay, so I know this place has a bad rap – and for sure they need to consult with someone on how to improve their business overall. However, I’m giving the stars to a massage therapist whose name sounds like «Dah-​weh». I’ve been there many times and always ask for him because he knows what he’s doing, and is always nice and professional. If you’re not able to pay for a higher-​priced massage place (but please do tip appropriately!) and have achey feet, ignore the fact that this place is not «pretty» and see Mr. Dah-​weh. He’ll do a great job. The one-​hour foot massage (which includes some body work while sitting on an ottoman) is $ 20.

Waste of time & money! $ 4 to use CC machine, was NOT a full hour service & tip demanded at the end. So not impressed!

I need 10 NEGATIVE stars (or ax)!
I have been to this place three times because I really needed a massage, after riding my road bike for three or so hours, and my regular massage therapist was not available.
First time, the lady did an excellent job. She stepped on my back and really tried hard to give me a deep tissue massage. She basically touched almost every part of my body, except the family jewel. The problem was she demanded how much tip should she receive. Even though I showed her that I did not have enough cash in my wallet, she insisted that a $ 15 tip for a 2-​hour massage was not sufficient. She demanded I use my credit card so that I could give her more.
Second time, another lady gave me another «deep-​tissue» massage. It was a so-​so massage. Same routine — stepping on the back, etc. The stepping on the back kinda’ help my lower back and pelvic area soreness. However, her weight was not enough to put significant pressure on my body, and I am not bulky or muscular. She too demanded that the tip for should be $ 20 per hour.
The third time was the worst. I did not know what the hell she was doing. Nonetheless, I gave her the tip. I know the routine and I am not hard to train. While I was trying to put on my clothes, she went back to the room and starting changing the sheet and towel on the massage table, without regard if I was butt naked. I guess it did not matter because they insisted that I strip down to get a massage anyway.
Depending on how much you are charging on a credit card, like the other reviews, they add the surcharge to the total amount — $ 6 for $ 100 charge. This Chinese really know how to play with the numbers. Same thing at the Massage Eden at Telegraph Canyon Road in Chula Vista. But that’s another bad review.
The bottom line is NEVER GO THIS PLACE period!!!

last night i went back here after having a decent experience my 1^st time around. the last half of the massage she finally applied enough pressure (after i asked again) to make me drool. before i left the room she said «tip». so i pulled out what i had (almost 20%) and thought it was sufficient since she did a little extra pressure. she ridiculed me and blocked the doorway. she kept nearly throwing the money out of her hand saying it wasn’t enough. after i figured out what was going on and that it was really happening i asked if she wanted the money or not and was willing to grab it back from her. she wouldn’t let me out of the door. i was triple guessing my reactions because i was confused on what i should do. someone came by to ask her something and then i pushed through the door. she ridiculed me some more to a man (david, no english, of course) up front. i asked what her name was a bunch of times while she put on a fake face for other customers and pretended i wasn’t there. finally i got a «COCO» out of her and the man confirmed it. i was asking for the manager or owner’s name or info and they refused to help me with the «we don’t speak english» line. i gave up after a few minutes and went to the car where my bf was waiting. i told him what happened. he was shocked, but he’s a pacifist, so he didn’t get worked up for a while until he realized that i wanted something done and couldn’t figure out what to do (noncriminally:)) besides a bad Unilocal review. he told me to wait in the car and he stomped in there. he walked out with a gift certificate for a foot massage. it seems david wanted to pay for coco’s bad behavior by offering me his services. needless to say, the massage’s effects were negated as i don’t react well to stress or being scammed. i’m the 4^th reviewer for this place and we’re all 1 star… hmmmm…
side note: i went into the barber shop downstairs to ask if they knew the owners. they didn’t. the barbershop had a really cool vibe. kinda dj/​tagger/​tattoo shop.

Avoid this place. They charge you $ 2.00 to pay with a CC. And the lady demands a tip at the end. The only good feeling I got was when she massaged close to my crotch.

I need another negative star. I really wish I would have read the first review before coming here, but I also came here spontaneously. These people are scammers! They even play up the naïve «I don’t speak much English» card as way to tug at your sympathy strings. Don’t waste your time with them.
First, if you pay with credit they will add two extra dollars to the total… they don’t get much business, so they need to squeeze as much money out of customers as possible.
Second, the message was not a full hour and it was not relaxing. The environment was just shady. This goes back to the old saying, follow your instincts, and I neglect to do this on that day. I regret it severely.
Third, the girl did not give me a head message because she said my hair was no good. Bitch! Then she has the nerve to ask for a tip, which I passively gave to her. I really need to be more assertive, but I do enjoy being a welcoming person.
Most importantly, I did not leave relaxed. I left filled with guilt that I allowed myself to pay for that awful experience.
Do yourself a favor. Do NOT even look at this place. There is a reason why no one is there. You can get a better, cheaper massage at Karma massage or even Massage Envy.
You have been warned!

This is part of my Horrible massage series.
Went here on a whim, as I was suffering from a slight headache, which I knew was caused by too much driving over the weekend. So while on my way to visit some friends in the area, I stopped in here. No fuss, no paperwork, just come on in and get a massage.
The feeling you get when you enter the place is a bit weird. Kind of dark, a bit musty, and just a bit too quiet. Which is nice as I guess you would be able to hear any kind of hanky panky might be going on. I was told of the massage option, #1, $ 19.99 massage, and #2 table massage.
#1 massage is a very ubiquitous 60 minute massage, but with 3 distinct 20 minute sections: !, foot soak, and massage on the arms and face/​neck. 2. foot/​leg massage. 3. back/​backs of legs and neck.
#2. 60 minutes table massage. front/​back massage.
Well opted for the #2, as I thought they might concentrate on my neck/​shoulders and back. Which then did. The massage was nothing special, except, I’m a bit conservative, and prefer not to be completely naked. But the lady insisted on me taking off my boxers. Ok, why not. Here is where it gets a bit weird.
The table was horribly squeaky and very hard. I mean i know what firm is, but this is hard and thin, not much padding. The towels she used were thin, and rough, and the room had a musty odor to it. They are upstairs so perhaps they have a roof leak or something. Music was blaring and it was just not a very relaxing or therapeutic experience at all.
The worse part of the massage was that the therapist was always trying to practice her engrish with me. Hey I’m a nice guy mostly, but when I come in with a headache and neck/​shoulder pain, I don’t want to be giving an English class tutorial. But whatever, I might as well go with it, as it didn’t seem that she was going to stop. I mean I’m Chinese so why not help out a bit. So after learning a few new Chinese words myself, and after doing some English pronunciation correction modules: exercise, not ax-​sa-​sides. Massage, not mass-​saugey. And then a basic anatomy refresher, we were finally done.
So here is the worse part of the whole experience… the therapist had the balls to actually demand how much her tip would be. Now that is freaking ballsy. So not only did i try to help her out with her engrish skills, but she not wanted a 30% tip on top of that. Well needless to say she was quite insistent about it, so we bargained a bit, cause I just didn’t have the cash. So i walked out feeling extra bad, still had the headache, and the shoulder soreness, but I felt hustled, and on top of that, she should have paid me for her Engrish lessons.
