Reflexology Massage near Menlo Park

“Amy is wonderful! I go myself, and I signed up my husband and his friend—they’re absolutely thrilled, too! 😍“

“Was flexible about a last minute appt changed which I appreciated greatly. Very easy to communicate with clear process. 90 min massage for $160 is a deal to me especially when incorporating so much intuition and various modalities- walked in with a specific concern that was actually NOT the area that needed the most support and I love when massage therapists can use their knowledge in this way. I would say a local gem.“

“This place deserves better than 3.7 stars. I’d rate it 4.5 for the massage itself. Rose gave me a really professional 1-hour massage for $65. She knew exactly what she was doing and focused on my problem areas. Only downside: the shop was a little smelly when I walked in. If they fix that, it’s an easy 5 stars. Still worth it for the massage quality.“

“My favorite massage parlor so far on the bay. Great prices, STRONG hands and clean. Generally quite busy so recommend calling ahead. Love this spot!“

“From the moment I walked in, the vibe was calm, clean, and welcoming. The booking process was effortless, the therapist, Colleen was incredibly professional, and the whole session felt customized just for me, not a generic “one-size-fits-all” massage.

I’ve had lots of massages before, but this was on another level. The pressure was perfect (exactly where I needed it), the techniques were thoughtfully tailored, and I could feel the skill in every movement. It wasn’t just relaxing, it was transformative. I left feeling looser, lighter, and noticeably better in my body, like the tension I didn’t even realize I was carrying had been gently unraveled.

What really sets Colleen apart is the care and attention to detail. Shes intuitive and truly knows how to work with your needs while still making you feel completely comfortable. I felt cared for from start to finish, and the results lasted well beyond the session.

If you’re looking for a massage therapist who is talented, skilled, and genuinely excellent book an appointment with Colleen.“

“I've been to dozens of different reflexology / chinese type massage places over the last 20 years, but Avee 9 is clearly the best place by a LOT.

Now it should be understood that I like a massage that some would consider way too hard. I want the mass of the titanic with the anger of a teenager thrust into my back with explosive force. This is obviously not for everyone.

Jennifer and Yoyo ( I am probably spelling them incorrectly ) are soooooo good at what they do. Both of them can do a walk on back technique without a towel covering that allows them to dig their heels into my lower back while sliding them forward while using oil. It's incredible.

When they switch to their hands you can feel them hunting for knots, discovering issues and working them out. If they do happen to miss something just ask. They are happy to help.

There are many common issues I see with some other Chinese reflexology places. Those issues include uneven massaging ( ex: rubbing the right shoulder blade for 4 minutes then skipping the left ), extremely light pressure, no knowledge of proper pressure points, using too much oil, loud bickering in chinese between co-workers, unstable when using walk on back technique and falling into a memorized routine without paying attention to the clients body.

Sometimes you get a place that avoids 90% of these problems and that's a damn good massage. Avee 9 avoids all the problems and does the BEST job.

The ONLY issues that I have with this place are the noise & parking. It's not particularly quiet and the two parking spots in the back can be full via locals in the neighborhood. To me it's still worth it. I work hard physical jobs that worsen my sciatica and need a massage to get me back to work. A little noise and parking at petco is no big deal. Additionally, It's quite small so there is no room for a shower which is a bummer but that's not a deal breaker.

I moved from Redwood City to South San Francisco recently and tried a local place for convenience and WOW it was truly AWFUL in comparison. I am done trying different places. I know I will never find a place as good as Avee 9.

Is it a fancy spa with bamboo signage, facials and a sauna? Not at all. But if you need Thor's hammer thrust in your back at speed this is the place to go.

Calling ahead is always the best option and tip WELL. I always do and they take phenomenal care of me. 10/10 would recommend.“

“I am regular customer for this place , very neat , masseurs are very friendly, good quality service and recommend!“

“If you are looking for a really great massage at a good price then I highly recommend coming here! You will not regret it. You will feel like a new person, best massage ever!“

“This place has a variety options. Different option for everybody. Make sure to make an appointment. Good vibes“

“Wow! I echo all of the sentiments from the other reviews. This is a tranquil and relaxing experience and AJ knows his stuff! My lower back already feels better after just one session.“

“This was my first visit to Ananya and I requested “Lilly”. You should too! She was incredible. Small but mighty! If you’re someone who likes lots of pressure she can deliver. I opted for the 90 minute Thai massage. I’ve had many massages both here and in Thailand, and I must say I think this was the best massage I’ve ever had in my life. Lilly was extremely skilled, talented, strong, professional, and sweet. She can continually checked in on me to make sure I was comfortable, and that the pressure was adequate. The atmosphere was very relaxing, warm, clean, and quiet. I highly recommend Ananya and Lilly.“

“I chose to get a massage becuase it was down the street from the hotel citrine. The massage was great, I’d go back again.“

“Limor is an amazing yoga and pilates teacher! I first came to her for reflexology after a foot injury—she helped me heal and get back to running. Her reflexology was so incredible that I became curious about her yoga and pilates classes(I'm someone who had avoided yoga for years). I decided to give her yoga class a try -- WOW! I now attend both group classes and private sessions. Limor has a rare, sought-after teaching style: hands-on yoga. She brings deep wisdom of the practice and weaves it together with authentic warmth, healing touch, massage, and attentive pose adjustments.I leave every class with a deep sense of calm.“

“I’ve been coming to Happy Feet Foot Spa for years, and they never disappoint! The therapists are skilled, attentive, and always make sure I leave feeling completely relaxed. The space is clean, calming, and the staff is incredibly friendly. Whether I’m here for a foot massage or a full-body treatment, every visit is pure bliss. 10/10, highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-tier spa experience!“

“Excellent massages of different types. Therapists are very kind and skilled. Booking is easy via their website.“

“It was the best Thai massage I ever received! The place is also very clean. I'm so glad I found this place.“

“Experienced and knowledgeable massage therapists who use the Chinese deep tissue style. Rooms were clean and soothing with low lighting and spa music. Not only did my masseuse end with a hot stone treatment (totally unexpected!) but she also added a hot towel rubdown and head massage. I'm considering getting the package of 20 sessions, but they have a new sister branch in San Mateo I'm going to check out.“

“Always talk highly of this spa. Great service and great prices. And dont forget great massages.i always go for the combo massage myself.“

“Reception rep was very kind and made the experience even better. I got the 30min head massage through classpass and they were very nice helping me with booking & rescheduling and the massage with Michelle was good. I had a headache before and it’s all gone now. I’ll be back when I’m in the area!“

“My wife and I go in to Izumi at least once a month. They are great! Most recently we both saw Laura! My wife is 8 months pregnant and she said it was one of the best prenatal massages she has ever had! I have chronic lower back pain and im not sure what kind of magic she did but I feel so much better. Thanks Izumi and team. You guys are amazing!“

“Had a massage on christmas eve from Cici she made it a comfortable experience a job well done 5 star! steve, mountain bike“
