Yen’s Thai Massage

Amy, Sandy, and May are fantastic therapist and great to work with. I have worked with all three ladies and they have managed to help me with serious shoulder problems. They provide a very professional and serene atmosphere. Of course this is second hand to their great attitudes and cheerfulness. I look forward to having therapy with them every time I schedule an appointment. I always leave happier for being in their presence.

As a frequent flier to Yens Thai Massage, I wanted to update everybody on some changes. Prices have gone up to the standard for the industry. $ 40 for 30 minutes. $ 60 for an hour and $ 90 for 1 ½ hours and a 3 dollar processing fee for credit. Still worth it! This place does such a good job, and these ladies deserve it.

I lived in Thailand for a year and had weekly Thai massages there. This place is legit! And not spendy! For newbies to Thai massage: you keep your clothes on. I wore leggings and a tank. (Men, wear your comfy sweat pants or PJ bottoms.) It’s often called «assisted stretching» and it is just that… gentle pulling, twisting, and pressure from hands and feet on all your trigger points. Yes, they walk on you. Yes, it’s awesome. No you can’t fall asleep during it because you have to pay attention, but you will feel rejuvenated and taller and livelier and relaxed afterward, and you will not be drenched in oil! Bonus! I’m already looking forward to going back. I had Amy, who is Thai and from Thailand and has an incredible story to tell about her life if you’re interested.
As others have said, this place is unassuming, but it’s quiet, the rooms are warm, and the low-​key atmosphere surely helps keep costs down so it’s all worth it.

I treat myself to a massage once a month to de stress from work. I have tried multiple places all over north county but never really liked one. Yen’s is clean, staff is friendly, and both masseuses I’ve had so far have provided an excellent massage. You’ve got to call in a day ahead to get her, but I highly recommend asking for Amy, she did a wonderful job!

I’ve been getting massages at Yen’s Thai Massage for over a year. The location is clean, comfortable and everyone speaks perfect English so the client can actually tell the masseuse what they like. Prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend Kali, she consistently gives a wonderful massage.

My husband and I just got a couples massage, it was actually cool to be in the same room together. My husband got a Thai massage with Amy and really enjoyed it, he needed a bit more than deep tissue while incorporating stretching which was great. I had a deep tissue massage with Kaylee and it was really nice too, good pressure and was able to relieve some of my upper back tightness. Great place with great prices

Great for what it is.
It’s a cheap massage by good therapists. I go after hard work outs and it helps me heal much faster.
It is not a spa. It’s small and bare with rooms that are not very quiet but I’m ok with that for 45/​hour. I pay 90/​hr when I want really nice scenery and a sauna.
It is completely legal here. I’ve heard of other places that have shenanigans going on but this is not the place.

Massage was pretty good. MAy was my masseuse. I got the Swedish massage. She got a lot of kinks out and I felt pretty relaxed afterward. She was pretty talkative and, at times, could have come across rude if I was a sensitive person. I told her I was Mexican and she went on and on about how most Mexican clients aren’t good because they are looking for sex or don’t tip well. Also went on to talk about how she doesn’t understand why Mexicans have so many kids and people living under one roof. It was pretty awkward, but she assured me I wasn’t like most Mexicans. I think she may have felt too comfortable with me and forgot I was a client and not a friend. Anyways, more massage and less talk would be my piece of advice.

Been here twice. Second time around, I’m 34 weeks pregnant. Yen, the owner took really good care of me. She laid me on my side with a round pillow between my legs to help relieve the pressure on my back. She did an awesome job massaging my upper and lower back and my legs. I also requested she work on my IT band. For the price and service, you can’t find a place that caters to pregnant women. I felt so much more relaxed when I left. I definitely plan on coming back one more time before I deliver. :)

Well the Chargers game was making me upset so I randomly decided a massage was a better use of my time. I couldn’t take the stress!
I rarely get massages and don’t really know the difference between all the different types of massages. I was curious about the Thai massage. She was talking about walking on my body and I was like sure! Lol. I used to walk on my ex’s back all the time so I wanted to experience it for myself.
Amy helped me and she was great. Very welcoming. I was already wearing loose clothing and she said it was fine to keep on. The massage was a lot of stretching and pressure on different points of my body. I really liked it. I am not good with remembering to stretch when I work out so it was really good for me to do this massage. It was some good stretches, like yoga style. Felt amazing afterwards.
It was a good deal. For the amount of work that she did during the massage, the $ 45/​hr price is well worth it. She says there are over 300 different techniques that goes into the massage. She also learned this in Thailand so I knew I was in good hands. I’ll definitely come back again!

Went here once and was not impressed. Walking in it didn’t seem very upscale which I didn’t care about. However, I could hear the bell ringing and loud talking all throughout the massage. I worked with caylee and there were several points at which I wanted to get up and leave but coming in with neck pain, I stayed, hoping it would get better. It did not. She left several times and left the door open. I paid for an hour and only got 50 minutes. She could not apply the pressure I needed even after asking. Most of the time she just gently ran her hands against my skin. She did not put any focus on my neck, as I had requested. I could have gotten a better massage from a friend. The massage only helped very minimally for my neck but I left feeling very disappointed and like I wasted my time and money.

Wonderful. Reasonably priced. Walk in’s welcome. May was great. I will most definitely be back. She listened to my issue then tailored the massage. Simply wonderful.

OMG So great!!!
Went in for some back pain, it’s not 100% gone but feels much better. Good prices and a great staff.

My girlfriend and I went to enjoy a morning massage at Yen’s Thai Massage. We did not get the Thai massage, we both got a Swedish massage. It was so relaxing & very comfortable place. It’s not over the top decorated but it is nice & clean, comfortable & relaxing. I’m not a talker during a massage & after a few words we settled into a nice quiet hour of pure bliss.
It’s definitely my go to place for massages now.

What can I say about a thai massage? Its painful, its intense, and it’s amazing. My wife and I were on a short stay cation and a massage was at the top of the list so I found this place on Unilocal.Don’t let the strip mall front fool you… it’s very nice inside and the massage was even better. We did a couples massage and were able to be in the same room on bed/​tables facing each other. That is the last I saw my wife cause things got real… real quick. I loved the stretching worked into the massage and felt like something was really getting done. I felt like they gave me a new meaning for deep tissue. They were very professional and were all business. If I lived in Orange county I would make a point to go monthly!

BEST. MASSAGE. EVER. I had a combination Thai /​Deep tissue by May. I really liked that she just figured out what I needed and just went with it.
My sister and I were in the same room and she had Amy. Both women were really nice and friendly and SUPER GOOD at giving massages. They must be completely exhausted at the end of the day because they put a lot of effort into giving a good massage.
The place is very understated but comfortable and relaxing.
Not only was this the most affordable massage that I have ever had, it was the best value because every single minute was packed with massage-​y goodness.
I Highly recommend this place.

Great place! Came here for the Thai massage and deep tissue. Both performed by kaylee (not sure that’s how u spell it) but both were amazing. And you can’t beat the price!

I planned a massage on the morning of my wedding day. I asked for a relaxing massage and definitely received 100% more than I was expecting. Luan was professional and extremely talented in her chosen profession. I have been getting massages for years including a couple in Thailand when I was there while in the Navy. I rate this as the most relaxing massage i have ever received and more than once in the last two weeks have recalled that massage and cannot wait to schedule another one with Luan.

Yen’s is a mom and pop massage parlor with spa-​quality masseuses.
Being 6’1″, 215lbs, and fairly muscular and athletic, it’s hard to find a masseuse who can really «work out the kinks».
I’ve only worked with Kaylee so far, but I thoroughly enjoyed her deep-​tissue massage. She has a firm, strong grip that’s capable of giving various levels of even pressure to ease even the most stubborn knots. She’s very intuitive, and good at locating the source of most trouble spots and working outward from there.
She can also provide a good helping of friendly banter. I know this isn’t necessary for most massage clientele, but it really helps me relax and get into the mood of things. Between the massage and the conversation, I feel refreshed and completely at ease by the end of the hour.
The ambience is what you’d expect from a mom-​and-​pop parlor. But, for $ 45/​hour, the quality of massage and the experience is well above par.
I’m definitely coming back to this place.

This is the real thing. Just like what you would get in Chiang Mai or Bangkok.
I’ve been to Thailand several times– I don’t say this to sound snobby but to say that I’ve had quite a few Thai massages. If you don’t know what a Thai massage is, you might be quite surprised that this technique is so effective for restoring balance, energy, and flexibility in your body.
Thai massage is a vigorous routine that usually lasts 2 hours. It can have moments of «OMG! this is uncomfortable» just like when you do stretches to areas of your body that are really stiff. But don’t worry– the payoff is huge! The technician starts with your feet and works up to the rest of your body, using stretching, bending, and pressure points. It uses a lot of leg stretches that help provide mobility to the pelvis and back, so be sure to wear comfortable, loose clothes when you go. You will never be uncovered during the treatment session.
Tookta was delightful– She is originally from Bangkok where she performed many hours of Thai massage and is now formally getting her massage certificate here in California. She is slow, deliberate, rhythmic in her movements, which is exactly what helps the body open up.
The location is a simple, unassuming storefront on the corner of Escondido Blvd and 3^rd. I just happened to see a sign that read «Thai Massage $ 45/​hr» which got my attention. If you look elsewhere, this type of massage is often $ 70 –90/​hr, if not more, so the price is a real bargain.
If you can afford it, go for two hours. I know that many people would wonder why you would want that much time. It’s different from other types of massage because it follows a specific pattern of stretches within each part of the body. If you go for two hours, you can get to a much deeper level of flexibility by allowing the technician to do a wider variety of stretches that help work into the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue.
This is my new favorite place for massage and therapy. I happily drive 30 minutes from Carlsbad to get my fix!
Just a minor note– they charge a convenience fee of $ 3 if you use a credit card.
