Skyway Therapeutic Massage

The best massage I’ve ever had! I’m speechless from how Yen knew exactly where to hit. If you are looking for someone to work you out, and know what a real massage is… she is better, the best!!!

My sister and parents have been going to Yan for a couple of years now and are always raving about her and her magic touch. I went to see Yan when I was in town visiting for the holidays and it’s true… She’s amazing! I asked for an extremely deep massage and she delivered! I’ve probably had 500 massages in my life and she’s the best! I plan to return every time I’m in town. I highly recommend her.

Absolutely amazing! Cindy is an awesome therapist. She targets the area/​s of concern & is sure to check in with me that all is well. I get massages frequently to accommodate my body needs & since finding Cindy in Colorado Springs I will be sure to see her each time I visit the Springs. You want attention to detail, therapeutic & a relaxing session look no further.

I was in dire need of a relaxing way to start my weekend, I searched high and low for a place that was not only available for an immediate walk-​in but somewhere that would provide a top-​notch therapeutic massage. My friend had an appointment with Yan and told me how amazing her massage was– I immediately got on the phone and booked my same day appointment.
I had a hard time finding the establishment because it was on the left hand side of a strip of stores, I had to turn around twice, but I eventually found it. Their curb-​appeal is lacking, but that did not worry me, «it isn’t about the wrapping paper, but rather what is in the box» was always my school of thought. Yan greeted me as soon as I walked through the door, by name (having never met her prior), which really made me feel welcomed. She ushered me to the the massage room and asked me if I had any problem areas to which I replied with «no» and she went to town on my neck, shoulders, and back. I was immediately put into a catatonic state, oh mylanta I was in a state of pure bliss. She was not only a professional, she is an artist. She found tight muscles around my shoulder blades and upper shoulders. Once she finished I immediately booked my next appointment for next week. Her prices are phenomenal! She charges $ 80 for a 90 minute Sweedish massage! Where in the world can you find a massage of that caliber for a price like that? I’ll save you the energy, nowhere!
If you are looking for a top-​notch, professional, and relaxing massage then look no further, Skyway Therapeutic is the place for you! Book with Yan, you will not be disappointed!

My experience at Skyway was simply amazing. I called in and was able to get a same-​day appointment with Yan Mo.
I’ll say up front that if you’re looking for a review of a relaxing massage, this is not it. If you want to know what it’s like to have your tight, non-​compliant muscles molded into submission by expert hands, you’ve come to the right place. As an athlete, I prefer a 3-​to-​1 ratio of deep-​tissue to relaxation massages. For this visit, I needed the former.
Yan brought me into the room and after a short discussion of where I wanted her to focus (my back) she left me to get settled. When she returned, she told me to let her know if I needed more or less pressure while she worked. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but let’s just say that there’s a surprising amount of strength in those small hands. From the first moment she dug her thumb into a muscle in my neck that I didn’t even know existed, I knew I’d just entered into a beautiful relationship with my new favorite masseuse.
As Yan continued to work through all of the knots and tightness in my back, I could feel the results immediately. I theorized that the reason Yan is such a sweet lady is because she takes all of her frustration out on the unsuspecting muscles of jokers like me who think they’re tough. After a few minutes of work on my back, I was glad I hadn’t mentioned my IT bands, but she found them anyway. My massage was a bit of a soul-​serching journey: I laughed, I cried, I silently begged for mercy more than once. I wanted my mommy. And yet, every time she asked me if the pressure was ok, I found myself saying, «It’s great!» Overall, it was absolutely wonderful. It was exactly what I needed.
The icing on the cake is that Skyway’s prices are super affordable. At $ 50 for an hour (and $ 80 for 90 minutes), I can afford to go for a massage on a monthly basis again. Before I found Skyway, I was paying $ 120 for a 90 minute session, which wasn’t something I could do regularly. I usually prefer the longer sessions, but when my hour-​long session was over, I didn’t feel like I needed more time, nor did I feel like anything was neglected or rushed. Cyndi managed the time very well and I left my session feeling balanced and refreshed.
I’ve already booked my appointment for next month and will refer all of my friends to Skyway. This is exactly the gem I was searching for and I’m so glad I finally found it.

Cyndi was Amazing! Very aggressive and she powered through my tension and relieved my pain. She worked for an hour and half and net let up. It was great. Best massage ever! I am a linebacker build and not easy to work on.

This review is long overdue. I have been here to see Yan a couple of times and the first time, I have no complaints about. Great massage. The second time (this was back in early December, late November), well, that was another story entirely. I explained that i was going out of town and that I had been to a tanning booth a few days prior, I would have waited until the redness was completely gone, but I was experiencing severe lower back and shoulder pain and desperatly needed relief prior to my flight the following day. I explained my problem areas and she seemed to be neglecting those areas. After a brief dialogue, it became apparent that there was a bit of a language barrior issue/​miscommunication and she thought that those areas «were okay». Then the next faux pas, she answered her phone during our session and proceeded to book another client. NOT PROFESSIONAL. Then, someone peeked their head in the door and started talking to her in Chinese. I’m naked under that sheet and would appreciate some privacy! Again, NOT COOL. Then, at the end of the massage, she proceeded to try to squeegie the lotion off my back with the sheet which, still having a little red in my skin from the tanning booth, nearly made me want to jump out of my skin it hurt so badly!!! Needless to say, I was very disappointed this time around. (and unfortunately, my muscles still hurt after I left this time :()

I saw the great reviews on Unilocal and decided to check this place out while visiting a friend in Springs. Great massage at a good price, I’ll definitely be back. I’m a fan of a strong pressure massage, and that’s what you get here.

I let my back and neck problems get out of hand, and was in constant pain, and periodic spasm. I knew I needed some extensive work, and wanted to try Shiatsu. I found this shop on Unilocal,and they live up to the great reviews.
I saw Cindy several times, and she’s amazingly talented. She found deep problems where I thought I was okay. Word to the wise; Shiatsu isn’t for wimps. It’s hard and painful, but I get results I never got from Chiropractic or PT. That said, my quality of life is far far better after just a few visits.
I’ll be back for a tune-​up whenever I’m in town.

I love their friendly service and down to earth personality! I’ve had many massages, and they are by far one of the best I’ve ever had. I also appreciate how they are a hidden treasure and not expensive like most chain massage places. Amazing prices for the quality of service. Highly recommend this place!

I went to see Yan earlier this week due to hurting my back picking up a computer. Yan gave me a 1.5 hour massage and worked out the strain in my back and also gave me a guasha treatment that helped get all of the bad toxins out of my system. This is only the third massage I have ever had and when I woke up the next morning a little stiff I was concerned but by 11 o’clock, I was feeling great. Yan is a wonderful, intelligent and professional masseuse. During the massage, Yan constantly checked to see how the pressure she was applying to my back felt. I have friends that get massages and they say they like a very hard pressure, I am nothing like them. I like a lighter pressure, which means it took longer to work out the kinks. Yan, thank you for helping me with my back and I can honestly say I look forward to my next massage.

The only place I go to for a massage. They have a very friendly staff that are experienced. I always come out of there feeling great. They are indeed one of the best reasons I love living in the Springs.

This place is great, the building is a little rough around the edges but they did a great job on my back.

Amazing massages! I highly recommend Skyway. If you have any tightness or pain in your muscles, this is the place to go. You can’t go wrong with getting a massage from either Yan or Cindy. Just a tip, this is not a fancy massage with all the bells and whistles, this a place to relieve your pain and to fix what is aching. My husband and I try to come at least once a month. It’s also the best value; 1 hour for $ 50.

Not sure why my post didn’t show. I wanted to add an update that I went there this week after missing a few week because I was ill. Yan sensed I was still not fully recovered and knew exactly what my body needed! I usually take lots of deep tissue pressure in my shoulder blades and back. But she intuitively knew I could not handle the same treatment and worked on facial and head massage as well as the whole body. She also did gua aha on my neck and back areas. She has the healing touch as I felt much better after her treatment. Thank you Yan!

First, it is not an easy place to find! Their enterance is on the east SIDE of the building.
The plus is there is plenty of parking and what the location/​building lacks, they make up for in their pricing. Good pricing, no «membership» BS, and while you can try walking in, I’d HIGHLY recommend calling and making an appointment.

Second, if you like the weak «swedish» massages that you get from Massage Envy, then this is not the place for you. This is the first place in the U.S. I have been that I actually got a deep tissue massage that was not some fool trying to just use their forearms and elbows to grind my muscles into nerve points and bones.
Honestly, I’m not into all the Hot Rocks and other things — I just want the knots worked out of my back, arms, and legs, so I can’t speak to the other services they offer.

The last time I had a massage this good was in Dubai or Germany (both a different style from these guys). They are trained professionals that have MANY years of experience. These guys do the Chinese version of deep tissue, which is great!
For those that have never had a great massage before, know that you will feel more sore the second day after. But you will feel great! I feel luck to have accidently stumbled across them.

Yan is just incredible. I went to school for massage therapy and have had a lot of massages in my life, and the ones I’ve received from Yan are at the top of the list. I had pinched a nerve in my back and was in severe pain, so I found Skyway last minute and I asked her to do a deep tissue massage and trigger point therapy for me. The relief was immediate and within 24 hours, the pain was completely gone! I’ve seen her since and am noticing improvements in my posture and the general level of well-​being in my body. She is very knowledgeable, kind, professional, and calming. I like that she is willing to chat a bit but also seems comfortable working in silence. I can’t believe how inexpensive she is and her massage center is both clean and comfortable. She is very cognizant of the pressure she uses and will ask if it’s too much, that being said, she is perhaps the only massage therapist I’ve met that can actually apply as much pressure as I normally want for a deep tissue. She even offers supportive therapies from Chinese Medicine, like acupuncture, gua sha, and cupping. The Gua Sha treatment was very helpful for me and had noticeable effects, just give pubmed a search if you’re interested in it as it has been evaluated clinically quite a few times.
Bottom line: Go see Yan at Skyway Therapeutic Massage. She is a great massage therapist, and a caring, skilled human being.

Yan is amazing. One of the top three massages I’ve ever had! Incredibly strong and skilled. My neck has been hurting for a while and she was amazing. Tip: if you are staying at the Broadmoor, Yan is a 5 minute drive away and ¼ the price!
I wish I were staying at the broadmoor longer so I could see her again!

Great experience here today. I had a deep tissue massage with Yan, who is also the owner. She really listened to me and did a fantastic job with my low back which is where I needed it the most. She was very nice, professional and calm. She performed cupping to my low back and explained it all in detail. Thank you.
The salon is small, but quaint and clean. It has a very calming feel to it and it’s comfortable and warm.
If you need a massage therapist who has experience and knows what they’re doing, go here and try Yan. I do not think you will be disappointed. She explains everything very thoroughly, is calming and professional and her rates are quite reasonable!
I’m definitely a fan and heading back on Monday for another round before I fly home to the bay area.

Yan’s massages are amazing. I’ve been going to Yan for 2 years now and since my first visit I didn’t try anyone else. I actually scheduled a second the very next week. I usually go once a month now to keep my neck in shape. She is very strong and is available on short notice, which I love. I highly recommend Skyway Therapeutic.
