Lea Spa

Just like most customers they did require payment up front. According to all the paperwork they wanted $ 60 for one hour body massage. When she rang up my order it would seem to be $ 63 for the full body massage. It could have been because I used a credit card. I really felt that she did a good job for the $ 63. But I do feel that the price was a little higher than most places. And in the end I asked for my receipt back to add a tip. Most of the time I will give the girls or the masseuse $ 10. After I added the $ 10 tip the masseuse insisted that I give her $ 20 instead. I did not feel that she deserved any more than I gave her but she seems insistent that I need to get her a $ 20 tip. Since I didn’t want to cause a scene I agree to add another $ 10 to the price of the massage. This by no means is a high-​class place where they give you hors d’oeuvres or even a full bottle of water after your massage. I cannot see why this person felt that they deserved a $ 20 tip. To demand a tip higher than the patron is going to give is wrong. Even though I do feel a lot better than I did when I went in I do not or will not recommend this place to anybody unless you’re going to be firm and not pay them any more money than what they are required. I will not come here again only because I wish shook down for an additional $ 10.

Pay upfront, little dated, smooth massages.
Let me start off by saying I have had over 100 massages, and this was a first.
I found them on Unilocal, they were open day before a holiday.
I called, I could barely understand the lady, I’m not even sure it was «Lea Spa» I called, so I had to ask her several times, I told her an appointment, she said «come now» «come now» I told her a time… I was skeptical already.
I arrived, it was easy to find in a shopping center. It looks like a typical NAIL SALON style place, bright lights on the outside, signage everywhere, etc…
I walked in, it honestly looked like I was walking into a strip club at 1am, it was dark, couches, neon lights, bamboo type decorations. But hey I really needed a massage, back was killing me.
Then the lady came to me, and I honestly don’t think we understood each other one bit at first she said «30» «30» «30» I said hour massage? and I’m not sure what was said but I heard pay up front, pay now… Out of 100 massages I have gotten, this is the first time I have had to «pay upfront», I was SO close to walking out… but I needed it, and already drove 15 miles.
She took me to a room and then left, usually a masseuse will tell you, your shirt/​shoes can go here and ill be back to check if your ready. I just stand there and she comes back and I’m like do I lay down, she says yes yes.
The massage table looked like it was from the 80’s as well as all the décor, their was NO table or chair to put my shirt or wallet, glasses, had to put my stuff on the floor. They don’t use face rests that they wash, they use like the things you put down on a toilet before you sit, never seen that before.
The massage itself was decent, I’m not sure if she is trained professionally but it wasn’t bad, she has very smooth hands, and did a good job at curing my back ache. She didn’t ask an area of interest to work on, but I said hey a first is a first whatever. For the first 15 minutes I was uncomfortable and not sure what was about to happen lol. I kept saying «if something goes down, I’m going to bolt for the door!»
Everything turned out fine though, the massage was decent, I’ve had better, I’ve had worse. She was really nice when she did speak English, there was also a lady in the back watching movies on a laptop I could hear the entire massage which sucked.
I wouldn’t go back, nor recommend to anyone. For any person who is use to a SPA level massage, this is not the experience your looking for, it does not make you feel relaxed.
