Elite Foot Spa

I did not want it to end! I didn’t expect it to be as good as it was since the location is in Montebello but it exceeded me expectation. You remain fully clothed, and they cover you with a towel. I got a full body massage and I’m excited to come back.

This was a really great foot and body massage! I feel so relaxed after the massage. She had great pressure in my back!

They only get 3 stars because I haven’t been here yet. Called to get an appointment and the person on the phone seemed helpful but the Second I mentioned the groupon offer, suddenly there wasn’t an opening until next week. Lol

Wonderful foot and body massage! Weni was super helpful and sweet at the front desk, and the massage therapist who gave the massage did a really great job. I’ve been to several of those cheap foot massage places around the San Gabriel Valley. This place is definitely a cut above the rest of those. For example it’s a private room, not just sitting in a row of chairs with a bucket. Worth every penny!

Wow!!! I’ve had a pain in the bottom of my foot and decided to get a foot massage. I’ve had many many spa experiences and this one by far has been exceptionally good. Clean and serene environment, and very reasonable. $ 20!!! For an foot massage! What a deal. They first soak your feet for about 10 minutes while they give you a shoulder and head massage. Then after drying your feet they get to working on them along with your lower legs. Excellent service, I highly recommend it.
I definitely will be back.

First overall massage was good, attention to detail in pressure points was good. Added bonus of facial massage is nice to have, some lack of attention to hands and feet. Some of the negative started with the costumer service, as soon as we came in they had trouble accepting our Unilocal offer, And added restrictions of their own including a mandatory gratuity feed of $ 10 which was not mention anywhere on the offer or in store. (I understand the concept of tipping and I believe in 20% for great service but it’s up to me the costumer to tip as I see fit)
One of the masseuse had untrimmed nails. And two of them continue to have a conversation while performing the massage.
Also some of the staff was coughing during the massage.
The location was easy to find, parking was ample with a variety of other shops to enjoy your time.
Personally, we won’t be coming back with the lack of costumer service and restrictions on the offers I can find better massage spas with better amenities.

This is the worst establishment I have ever been to, the first man that massaged me used no lotion and really burned my skin, also he used no pressure. Then he massaged my feet with latex gloves and he did the same movement for a long time and it was uncomfortable and burned. I had to ask him to stop and the lady brought in a new masseuse. The second guy was better but when he was massaging me his private parts hit my head twice.
And most of the time I heard the first guy angry and gossiping about me .
When I was ready to leave the lady told me that my groupon was so cheap that I needed to tip a lot. I tried to only give $ 5 but she held onto my $ 20 until I tipped her. I wasn’t going to but my mom wanted to leave so bad that she told her to
Just keep it, and the two guys were staring and standing next to us. So I just wanted to leave. Please don’t go here
They are very rude and don’t know what they are doing.
Also it is very cold and they kept the curtain open while I was changing.

Beware Groupon users! I called and scheduled an appointment but due to a language barrier the front desk did not understand I had a Groupon. When I got to my appointment, the lady wanted to charge me and I told her I paid through Groupon she then told me she didn’t have an appointment. She said I didn’t clarify that I was using Groupon. What difference does it make if one has an appointment whether it’s Groupon or cash. Terrible business practice!

Ive been wanting a massage. I always find deals on Groupon for us. This was a gem for $ 30. Made an appointment today for 5:45pm. Took us in on time. Always a good sign. Didn’t care for a male or female. I got Sam who was a male. A bit on the rough side which I like to get those stress balls and knots out. Good thing was I also went in shorts and a shirt. Men/​women take their shirt off to massage the back which sealed the deal for me. Private area for the massage with curtains. They also put your feet in warm water. I would be back with or without the Groupon. Leave a tip… What you think they work for? People are so cheap now days. I gave the guy $ 21.

Went because of the Groupon deal and it did not disappoint. Great deal. $ 25 for 70 min massage. Regardless of the deal, service and masseuse was excellent! Alan is a bit on the rough side but if you want a well worth massage, I highly recommend him. He breathes a bit loud, but means he works hard. Even without a Groupon, I will definitely go again.

I found out about this place through the Groupon Coupon. Making an appointment was very fast and easy! I was really nervous about getting a massage because I have never been to one; But working multiple jobs, going to school, and keeping up with dance has been taking a toll on my body.
Of course the regular first-​timer questions ran through my mind: When do I take off my clothes? Do I even need to? etc
I was greeted very kindly and they immediately set me up even though I was 10 minutes early! The lady was very kind and made sure I was comfortable. I didn’t tell the lady this, but my left side is more tense than the other, since I *dance* more on my left side, lift heavy things with it, and just about anything a normal leftie would do. Without prior knowledge to this, I notice she would spend extra time/​care on my left side, which lead me to think she knew what she was doing! Nothing hurt at all, it all felt very relaxing and I really enjoyed the music they played.
Overall, they were all very polite and I would probably come back again once my body starts giving out.
I work at a slow restaurant so on a good week I would make about $ 10 tip. Since the ladies were so nice and accommodating, I threw in $ 5 of my own money and gave a total of $ 15 tip.

We received a groupon for this place as a birthday gift. I’ve read many reviews and was skeptical at first, but our experience was incredibly nice. We followed the appropriate procedures and called the same morning to ask their availability. We let them know we had two groupon passes and they were able to accommodate us at 12:00pm. We arrived promptly and we were greeted with smiles. After handing our groupons we were directed to individual curtained areas. We tipped our masseurs 10 $ each, cause we understand most of them earn only from tips. The massages we extremely pleasant. The noise level was just right, and we felt so good after all we did was sleep away the rest of our Sunday.

DO NOT BUY ANY DEALS FOR THIS PLACE!
My mom and I separately purchased a groupon deal for this place. I just got off the phone trying to make an appointment for the both of us… having failed miserably.
The lady (and owner, I assume) very simply makes Asian people look bad. I say this with great disappointment because from the moment I said «Hello, I have a groupon», she began yelling at me nonstop for trying to make an appointment.
Several responses I received from this lady:
1. She said she could not accommodate 2 groupon deals (for two separate people) on the same day, even if we were to book our appointments separately, BUT she had room to accommodate 2 REGULAR PRICED people… why? How do you magically have room now… is it because you want to sheist us an extra few bucks and prevent us from using the deal YOU offered?
2. She said service was limited, and her massage therapists could not JUST serve groupon people… are groupon buyers not also consumers? Are you only receiving groupon customers… hmmm, maybe, just maybe, there is a reason you’re not attracting other business. I told her that nowhere on the groupon deal did it indicate that there was a quota for the day. What she was telling me was false advertisement. (Here is where she pushed again for me to come in and pay for regular price instead of using the groupon. She did this a total of 6 times in a 10 minute conversation.)
3. She then said «We are working. WE do the work. Groupon does not do the work, so we cannot service groupon people all day.»…so I replied, «Yes, and I also work, so that I can BUY a groupon that you offer to use at your facility.»…I have NEVER heard any business respond in this way, as if I should thank them profusely for exerting themselves so much in having to serve groupon customers… WHY SELL ANY DEALS IF YOU DON’T LIKE THEM???
I love Groupon (their customer service is impeccable). I think it’s absolutely disgusting when businesses work with companies to sell deals but then treat those customers as second rate individuals, simply because we like a deal, and you happen to offer it to us. Or you give us a bait-​and-​switch as soon as we attempt to use the deal, so that we are forced to pay more. That is not okay. An Elite spa? Hardly.

Came here with a groupon for 70 min foot and body massage.
I like that this place has privacy curtains between most of the massage beds. You have the option to get your back massaged with oil but you have to take off your shirt for that part of the massage. They also use lotion on your feet while massaging. Warm damp towels are used to wipe away excess oil/​lotion afterwards.
The foot massage here was one of the best I’ve had. Often at massage places, my feet feel tickled or pressure is too intense, but here it was just right and not uncomfortable at all.
The foot bath at the beginning could have been hotter though. It cooled quickly. But I guess they don’t want to take the chance of scalding someone either.
I had mostly been going for massages at a place in Monterey Park. The MP place is cheaper, but I enjoyed the Elite massage better. The massage here was firm but it didn’t hurt like the MP place often does. I told myself before that the pain would be worth it to get out the knots in my back, but after the less painful, non-​jabbing/​stabbing Elite massage I felt about as good physically and way more relaxed.
The only issues during my visit were the other customers, which I can’t fault the business for:
1) I could hear a woman moaning throughout her massage. I guess she liked it a lot… a little distracting, but oh well.
2) I overheard another customer finish and about to leave during my massage. A male staff person asked her for a tip. He wasn’t impolite about it. But she kept saying (a bit loudly) that she didn’t understand because she had paid already. It sounded like she had a groupon (which only cost like $ 25) and assumed that covered everything. But it’s customary to tip for a massage, just like for a haircut or manicure! I think she left to get cash and came back.
Anyway, please just give them $ 5 tip or more. I assume the workers earn very little.

I really liked this place a lot. When you walk in, it’s a little dark and they play classical music. The beds are very comfortable. Time goes by fast when you’re getting a good rub down. When Lily, who’s amazing, said she was done, I was like «it’s been an hour already??». Next time I won’t mind paying for over an hour. Well the place is very clean, big and spacious. They DO accept credit card but best to pay with cash they said. I’ll be coming back.

Loved this place! My first time there, I used a Groupon just to check it out! My massage therapist was Lily. Lily was wonderful and I loved the private area that separated me from open area; even with just a curtain. Very tranquil and dark and was quite relaxing and comforting. Had a 70 minute combo. Will definitely be going back. Loved that it’s local to me. Don’t forget to tip. Well it’s next day, and I’m a bit sore but I felt all the kinks get worked out. This is a cash only place.

3^rd visit here, very happy I decided to walk in. This place is great! Clean and the massages are just right. I work out and injury is inevitable. Soreness and tired muscles need a good rub down. The massage tables are separated by curtains, its quiet, peaceful and the towels smell clean. There is plenty of parking and prices are reasonable. I’ve spent hundreds at well known spas, with good and bad experiences. The advantage here is that I don’t need a month in advance appointment, they are skilled and reasonably priced.

I just finished my massage and it was great! DONT BUY THE COUPON!!! They say it doesn’t count…
Otherwise it was great. We came for couples massage, me a 60 minute foot rub and my boyfriend had the 70 minute combo body and foot rub in a separated section. Clean place, sound is great — mix between light music and the fish tank. Cash only! And please everyone, remember to tip correctly!

Been here twice. First experience was bad. Got a woman who had no muscles and wasn’t qualified to massage.
Second time, I received a great massage, so it really does depend on who you get. For $ 25.00, I received a full back and foot massage for 70 minutes. Massage was great on the back with Oil and received a great foot massage as I fell asleep. LOL. I hope I didn’t snore. So relaxing. Overall, the second massage was a great one.

Start off with the Pros: good atmosphere, quite, relaxing, smells clean and refreshing.
Cons:They moved us around thee times. Cut about 10 minutes from my time. No biggy. But as I watched the other workers finish the massages, a lady came by to «clean up» well she folded the same used towels and set up another station with the same towel. Gross!!! I saw about 8 employes but only two massage certificates. When I went to pay I showed my groupon app. He was so upset I didn’t mention it before. And when we gave him a tip he asked for more. And when I refused he «threw this arm back and «shuued» us away. Never returning!!!
