Houston Retreat - Thai and Swedish Massage

Over the last three months, I’ve come in for a 1-hour Swedish massage with a young therapist. During one session, I fell asleep because I was tired. When I woke up, she was lying above my head—one hand lightly massaging my scalp while the other hand was on her phone, which felt very unprofessional. When it was time to tip, I paid on my credit card, and she told me the owner would take half of her tip. She then asked me to bring cash next time and even requested an additional $20 on top of the $50 tip I had already given. She is nice and has a pleasant demeanor, but the massage quality was not good and the experience overall felt uncomfortable and unprofessional.

I’ve been a regular customer at this massage shop for over 5 years and have generally had positive experiences in the past. However, since the management changed (the new manager has short blonde hair and often works at the front desk), I’ve noticed some concerning changes. Therapists now frequently ask for tips after sessions, mentioning that the manager takes half of whatever tip they receive. This has become a regular occurrence and feels uncomfortable, especially as a long-time client. I also learned from conversations that two younger therapists were reportedly pressured by management to provide “extra” or “full” services to keep certain clients returning more often. It’s disappointing and concerning to hear this, and I’ve noticed those two therapists are no longer working here. Overa

My boyfriend and I came in for a scheduled couples massage. Prior to the service I was asked if I could pay for the service before beginning. Not sure why i was asked to do so considering the business didn’t close until 10 and it was only 6pm however that was not a problem for me. My boyfriend and I received an amazing 1 hr massage. After being serviced and preparing to leave one of the therapists asked if I could wait because she could not find the receipt for the service. The receipt was found but I realized she asked me to wait because she wanted me to add a tip. Not a problem considering we enjoyed our service so I left a $10 tip because that was all that I could afford at the moment. The therapist went on about how the tip that I left meant that I did not enjoy the service and I shou

My experience was great we had an appointment for 8:00pm Sat night, however we had to wait till 8:15 because there was no one available. Cool no problem we received great service, however once the Massage was over we came out a tip was demanded we left $20 for them to split but they both wanted $20 walked me to the front for me to leave an additional tip on my card. By reading previous reviews they’re right about how demanding these ladies are for tips. I love the service but not fund of tip demanding. This makes people not wanna come back to patronize your business based on tip demanding.

I went and saw a very nice Spanish lady named Bella. She was very polite and made you feel comfortable. She is very good at doing deep tissue and hot stones. Her hands are so good that she will put you to sleep. My stress was completely gone and the tension in my muscles were gone. I would see her every week if I was rich. I recommend her for anybody.
