Raphael’s Spa

My bf and i both loved our massages! Honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. Only negative thing i can say is that the towel to cover myself felt a little damp and the table smelled like a man so i don’t know how clean they are.

The worst massage of my life. I’d like to think I’m over exaggerating when I say my masseur might as well have beat me with rocks, but I’m not. I asked for more soft, but don’t think he understood English. So I try movements to show I’m uncomfortable which made him laugh. It was like an hour of torture. I should’ve gotten up and left, but my bf was getting a massage at the same time and although he enjoyed his massage (by a lady), I left frustrated and upset. Two thumbs down, never again!

DO NOT SUPPORT THIS ESTABLISHMENT!!! My daughter wanted to do something special for me on Mother’s Day. She made an appointment for both of us for a one-​hour full body massage. I had Dave as my massage therapist and my daughter had a woman who spoke not one word of English. We were led into our rooms with the only thing on the massage table besides some paper cover was a folded towel that was a little larger than a hand towel. Neither of these people first asked if we had any problems they could work on and both had horrible technique. The girl who worked on my daughter kept rubbing over the same area on her back about 20 times. it hurt my daughter and she asked if she would stop. Since the girl did not speak English, she had no idea what my daughter said and kept doing it more. My daughter yelled out to me in the next room to have Dave tell her to stop. Dave had to communicate with her quite often and even left my room to answer the phone since I believe he may be the only one that somewhat speaks English. He keeps a blue tooth in his ear the whole time. My daughter let the massage last for about 15 minutes and asked if she could change to a foot massage because the girl was so bad. I also stopped mine after about the same time. After all this, Dave still charged us for two 30-​minute treatments. I have had many massages, yet this was the worst, most horrible experience both my daughter and I have ever had!

This could be the worst massage place ever! I woke up sore today. My back is killing me. The lady used her elbows during more than half of the session. Now my spine is sore. And it’s the least pleasant massage place ever! Big no no. Oh and the look they give u for not tipping enough after the worst massage ever is priceless!

I had ½ hr foot & ½ hr back for $ 40 plus tip. this is a typical Asian reflexology place. Nothing fancy but clean, excellent service. I highly recommend this place when you don’t need the high pricy spa experience.

How in the world does this place have a 4 star average?
We called the spa at the hotel we were staying at and when they were booked we thought hey let’s save a little money and go to a less spa like place for some massages?! Wrong choice. I called and made appointments for 1130. When we arrived at 11:30 we were told they were very busy and we would need to wait 20 minutes. We should have walked out. After 15 minutes a lady from a sister massage spot came in to take my husband to that location. As I waited about 15 more minutes. I was finally asked to go to a Room for my service. The massage would have been good except the man stopped 3 times to answer his cell phone that was on the highest ring tone volume and chat for a minute. Then to walk out of the room to answer the shop phone about 3 times and Stop to yell at a co worker a few times. As you can imagine it was the least relaxing hour of my life. I have been to MANY of massage places like this. You get a better price for forgoing the «spa quality» like nice sheets and walls that aren’t paper thin. So I know that when you pay 40 for an hour your not going to be at a world class place but I have never had someone take multiple phone calls during a treatment! My husband said the Same of his experience at the sister store. He was also a little annoyed about the fact that he started with one employee and then when her next appointment arrived she asked him if she could get someone else to finish his massage. Just so unprofessional.

COMBO MASSAGE ALLLLLL THE WAY! $ 40 for ½ foot rub ½ body rub. The guy working on me was awesome too.
Highly recommend, but please be advised… this is an Asian style spa… this is not a high end pampering spa. Don’t expect the finesse, and don’t expect the high price either. Well worth the $ 40+tip

Best massage I have ever had. If you want a really firm massage this is a good place to go and a great price. $ 55 for ½ reflexology and 1 hr full body massage. My friend and I saw Lina and Tina both were awesome!

I have been here many times over the past few years. I enjoy the quietness of this place as well as the professionalism of the staff. There is usually no wait time but they can get busy at times. Appointments are available if needed. I personally think it’s one of the best foot messages around. The prices aren’t bad either. There is parking behind the building as well as street parking.

Well, if you ask them to go hard. They will. That is why I go to a male operator. You can’t beat a good massage and they are worth the walk-​in.
Also, I always take a sanitary wipe (antibacterial wet-​nap) to any massage parlor I go to especially if you have to place your face on the table or chair ring cushion.
Not saying they aren’t clean but if it’s busy who knows if they wipe the tables down in those places.
It was a decent relaxing experience. They could have been playing better music. The background music should be nature or instrumental so it helps you get relaxed. Both times I went in the past couple months, I heard what was exactly like Hall AND Oates except Asian covers.
Yup, that doesn’t work.
