Big Feet

Not very good massage at all. The masseuse used rubber gloves to massage me. Didn’t feel good at all. I’ve been to other reflexology /​massage places and this was the worst. Of course she demanded a tip like all Chinese women do especially if you’re a man. Avoid this place. Kind of dirty and there are 2 tables per room, which makes you feel uncomfortable to say the least!

Always been pretty happy with the big feet in Richmond but this one is so much closer to home… came in again today because of migraines for an entire week and they not only did a full hour body massage to work out all the kinks but gave me an additional heat pad treatment for another half hour and a couple extra kneads at the end… definitely feel much better and will continue to go… highly recommend booking in advance because they are a little smaller than the one in Richmond with less masseuses… same day usually available but not all too sure about walk ins

Decided to give this another try after failing to find anyone that could communicate in English at a Richmond location. Came in with my gf, and we did a reflexology foot massage together in the same room. All in all it was really good value for the price (in the 30s each for 45 mins). Legs felt great after and I felt pretty upbeat. Ladies did their work on our feet in a private room while we chatted away. Would recommend this place and we’ll be back to try the body massages.

As the empire grows, so to does the access to places like this. I have seen ‘Big Feet’ locations, I have driven people to the Broadway and Cambie location, also the Victoria and 33^rd location, and now this one pops up, and when I entered the first thing I noticed on the wall was a ‘Grand Opening’ poster and the deals they were offering, but also the many locations they have throughout the GVR… they are growing… big time! Entering here, with seeing this poster this place does feel new, like a very quick average reno, where the neon green painted walls look like they are still drying. Located in a plaza that houses a ramen joint, a Chinese restaurant, a HK café, a Vietnamese restaurant, just to name a few of the tenants here… and parking can sometimes be a pain, don’t worry, depending on the time you are here… you can park the street!
These places are built for maximum efficiency, as there is not much of a waiting area, three big home theatre like chairs are up front, I thought this was to wait till you get your appointment, not so… this is where it starts if you are getting a foot massage. They bring these big wooden buckets filled with hot water for you to soak your feet for a bit before the people work on you. I didn’t know what to expect as my friend brought me here, and this was her first time at this location. So while getting my feet wet, eventually a person came out to dry them off, and get her hands on them. She was an older woman, and you can tell by the strength of her hands that she knows what she was doing. Eventually I had to shift myself to the bench that my feet were laying on to dry, and then she worked my shoulders, and if there was a mirror in front of me, there may have been some ugly faces showing as she was able to hit the stiff spots. English is not their first language here, as Mandarin is mostly spoken with a small understanding of English words like ‘pain’!
Eventually I was led into a room, darkened a bit from the lighting, and made to lie on a table which had a spot for my head, face first. As I lie there waiting on the comfy massage table eventually the same woman that was working my feet and shoulders worked on my back. She seemed to know exactly where all my stiff joints were, and after grimacing to the floor as she massaged my whole back side I blacked out. yeah. that good indeed. All I know is that my friend, and even the person massaging me said I was snoring, must have been that good. By the time this was all done it was around past 11PM, I felt tired, well relaxed, ready to go home and hit the bed. The prices are pretty resonable, and if you are looking to save a bit more money you can prepay for a voucher booklet and get an extra session free. I can say I had no bad effects the next day and felt totally fine, probably less stressed around the shoulder areas… so good job! It does feel like I was in China when I came to this place, but feeling aside… it was a good massage, I may come again. Also if you can, call ahead and make a booking, even though they accept walk-​ins. you never know how long you have to wait.
