Taiji Oriental Massage

Full body massage for 70 min for $ 40… quiet place, only about 3 rooms. It was great, only complaint I have is the massage bed not being too comfortable. Maybe the music should be a little bit louder because you can hear the phone ring from front desk taking appointments and etc. I’d go back again though

Come here again with my girlfriend, I had a great time with them. Next weekend I will bring my friend here, The guy said give us special 40 dollars 70 min.

After more than a year, this place finally lost my business. The service grew increasingly worse and it seemed like Nancy and Tony who managed the place were more interested in keeping their boss off their back (Nancy frequently said he would ‘kill her’ — yikes!) and filling the beds. There was a remodel that added more rooms and the staff changed often. Tony would call if you weren’t there a few minutes before the scheduled time, yet they thought nothing of putting you in a room so you could wait for 30 minutes before someone was available. The last straw was when one of the staff (Cindy) told my husband to find another masseuse the next time he came. He has tight shoulders and apparently it was too difficult for her. What? When we questioned this, Tony basically said sorry but there was nothing he could (or would) do. Nancy actually challenged us to find another place that would take care of my husband. She went on to say that Cindy was a single mother with back problems and we should feel sorry for her. This from the woman who scheduled her back to back so she never had a moment to even take a sip of water between customers.
We’ve taken Nancy up on her offer and have found a wonderful place with a level of professionalism that Taiji will never achieve. My advice is to look elsewhere.

I used to like coming to this place and even had a few favorites such as Cindy but unfortunately that’s no longer the case. I went for a massage on Saturday evening which was great, Cindy does an excellent job. It can get noisy in the hallway as you hear everything that goes on. My disappointment began when I went to the front desk to get my free massage as this was my 11^th time coming and I had a card to receive a free massage after the 10^th one. I was told that I didn’t qualify because there was one time that I got a half hour massage and 9 other times I had a one hour service. The card never stated any of these stipulations plus the majority of my times going was at one hour. The guy behind the counter was rude and unaccomodating. As a result I will no longer be giving this place my business. Might I also add that parking is a big inconvenience because you have to ensure you’ve put enough in the meter so that you’re not stressing while getting a massage and you’re not faced with a parking ticket. Did I mention that the meters are electronic so no funny business they automatically issue you a ticket when you don’t depart from the parking spot on time. I’ll find another massage location with better service and parking. Stay tuned!
Guess what! On Friday ³⁄₂₅ I got a call from Tony who was very apologetic about the experience I had and wanted to make it up to me. He wanted to give me 2 gift certificates to use in the future. I was out of town for the Easter break and told him I would stop by on Sunday or Monday but wasn’t able too. I got a call again from Tony on Tuesday ³⁄₂₈ to remind me to stop by which I did. It was great to see that customers are still important and valued. Thank you Tony for setting things straight!

Buyer beware, Unless you get an experienced massage therapist without an attitude forget about it. I have been going there for almost a year. I go once a week. You can eat off their floors they are so clean. The price is exceptional. Those are all the points to want to go there. But twice now I have gotten one of the massage therapists who has a major attitude and when you end your session she stands at the front and rolls her eyes at the gratuity. Today was the last straw for me, as much as I enjoy this place I will never go back. Here’s why. I asked for a 90 minute massage as I always do, deep tissue. Not only was it not a deep tissue massage but the cost is $ 58.00 and I always give a $ 20 tip more then 20%. When the massage is not as good I leave $ 15.00. I’m far from cheap and always believe in tipping accordingly. This massage therapist rolled her eyes and then threw the money on the counter which I should have taken it back and I believe it was the owner that was standing right there and did nothing. I was so upset that I explained that the whole massage her nails were cutting me they were so long. I have scratch marks on my back, hands and shoulders from this very unprofessional «massage therapist». I have sent so many people to this place and will never do so again. They are not very business orientated, I go once a week for a 90 minute massage but now they have lost out on not only my steady money but any referral I will ever give.
I also need to add if you want to use your credit card they threaten to charge you extra. Not sure what they are thinking except they want you to pay for the therapist to be there instead of the owner. After reading other reviews now all the one star seem to be over tips. Sad really, they will lose their business in my opinion if they keep treating their clients this way. P. S. I have also reported them to the BBB for charging more with a credit card.

Although my usual go-​to place for a massage is in Fort Lee, as lazy as I can be living in Pal Park, I decided to give this place a try since it is located so close to my home.
Upon entrance I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the shop. While most places seem clean, you can tell which ones are even more meticulously maintained. As for the massage, Joey did a fantastic Job in relieving the stress points in my muscles, that I was very relaxed after a 1-​hr session. I think she actually won me over now that I’m probably going to look for her in this place next time I need a massage.
One downside, which aligns with what many others have said in other reviews that I had not read prior to coming here, is regarding the reaction of the employees when being tipped. I understand that for these Asian massage places, the same general rule of 20% for a satisfactory service does not apply. However, I thought 30% is good enough so I tipped $ 12 on a $ 40 service (if I had more cash in hand, I might have given more). Joey was like «uhh…» when I handed her $ 12 and when I asked what’s wrong, she kind of sneered and said it’s okay.
After getting a great massage and feeling good, this wasn’t the best way to exit, which is the only reason why I shaved off a star. But I understand their hard work that goes in so I’ll just add a few more bucks next time and everybody will be happy.

What a great place! Very clean, super friendly, so reasonable and the best massage ive ever had. Definately on my monthly to do list!

After checking out Unilocal I was looking for a nearby massage therapist without an appointment– so my husband and I walked in and we both received 2 — 70minute massages for $ 40 each.
We both thought the massages were very good and worth the money. They were very professional and the place was clean and tidy.
I must admit I am a massage hound. Also we live in Brooklyn where there’s a very large Chinese community and we get fantastic massages for $ 35 an hour and they walk on your back which is incredible. But here they don’t offer that I would still come back if I was in the area and get another massage here!
It’s hard to beat it at that price.

This place will be on my to do list once a month!!! Went today as a first time customer and my masseuse was Ada, told her it was my first time and she gave me the $ 40 promo price for a 70 minute massage and 10 minute foot massage. This is in no way a day spa but it is super clean and each customer has their own private space. Ada worked her magic using oils, creams, hot stones and hot towels. When I was done I literally felt completely relaxed. I gave her a $ 20 tip because I’ve paid quadruple the price for a massage in the city which was subpar. The only negative is that you can hear the other customers, there are times when it can be really quiet or somewhat distracting. Next time I’ll bring my headphones

My coworker kept raving about this place. I finally went and took advantage of the new customer/​$ 40 for 70 mins special. The massage bed was heated and they used hot stones on my back. Everything was relaxing except for the scalp massage. No biggie; will definitely be coming back! :)

I love this place. I probably go about 2 – 3 times a month.
Very affordable, service is always great.
In the winter, the massage beds are heated which is nice.
The only downside probably is that you can hear other people.
As a regular, I try to whisper & always make sure my phone is silent.
It’s quite obvious that others can be heard as there are curtains as doors, but some just don’t get it.
There is a sign that says $ 40 for an hour body massage recommends at least $ 12 tip.
Please note the sign!

Came back again tonight. Ever since I got back from my long flight from hawaii, my lower back and shoulders have been sore and painful. It didn’t go away after a few days and I decided to get a massage.
My masseuse tonight was Cherry (Sherry?) and she was phenomenal!!! She shall be my masseuse from now on. My last masseuse here was great as well but not as great as sherry-​cherry. It was as if she could see exactly where I was sore. Her pressure was just right and it felt amazing.
I was super relaxed by the time she was done and after walking around a few minutes, my back pain was gone. Miraculous!!!
I simply love this place. $ 40 for 60 minutes. I had an extra 10 min bonus card that was given to me from a prior trip so I had 70 minutes total. If you check in on Unilocal,you’ll also get 10 min free. They stamp a card for you so after 10 massages, you get one free. My husband and I go together and we just reached our 10. Free massage here I come!

Just finished getting a massage with my boyfriend. My boyfriend has been here before and raved about how good this place is. We had a 7pm appointment. We ended up getting here at 7:10pm due to traffic. They called us to make sure we were coming and let us know our appointment was still secured. Once we got there we were taking to our massage room.
My boyfriend did the half and half … 30 min body massage and 30 min foot massage.
I got a full hour body massage. Deep tissue with hot stone. My masseuse was Leelee. She was awesome and definitely listened to my needs. I had so many knots in my back and she got them out. The hot stone was a nice surprise as I didn’t expect it.
So the only thing I would recommend is this place getting thicker walls or doors for the massage rooms. I could hear everything coming outside of the massage room; people answering phones, people talking… Very distracting.
Other than that this place is clean. Staff is friendly and there are nice scented candles in the bathroom.

So I came here based on the Unilocal reviews and got a pretty damn good massage., I thought it felt so good that I left the girl a $ 20 tip. So as I’m about to leave I am informed that $ 20 isn’t enough. When the hell is a $ 20 tip not good enough. I was kindly notified that $ 30 would be better. So I went there earlier this year and will probable never go back. Shanti foot spa 2 in fort lee DELIVERED and kindly accepts my $ 20 tip every time

I have been coming here for almost a year and I love it. They are so nice and really do a great job I highly recommend them for their massages and foot massages and the prices are awesome you can’t beat 35 $ for an hour

Amazing surprise. this place is clean, welcoming, friendly and professional. Amazing massage by girl, and you can’t find a better deal of $ 40 for 70 min deep issue. she started work to his magic hand, felt like she was playing guitar with my tendons (in good way). I definitely coming back and to all my friends.

Just had a terrible experience where reservationist overbooked, made us wait for 20 minutes, gave away our spots to people who called afterwards, then refused to acknowledge he did anything wrong. This was a huge disappointment and I highly recommend avoiding this place.

The place is not bad. It’s clean and quiet. My masseuse was not bad, she worked hard. It’s just not as good as Shanti in Fort Lee. Given the rating, I ended up feeling disappointed. Then when I was paying, the man at the front desk showed me their Tips menu. It’s suggested to pay $ 12 for an one hour massage.
I firmly believe the tips should be based on how one feels about the service. It was offensive to me what they did. If they want to retain their employees, they should pay their staff decent wages, rather then strongly implying that the customers aren’t paying enough in tips.
Speaking about the massage, I got a 70 minutes one, their «promotional» price, in reality it’s not any cheaper than regular 1 hour. I felt that at Shanti, even I had just one hour, my masseuse Grace was able to do a lot more than what I got in 70 minutes at this place. Grace stretched me really well too. Whereas in the 70 minutes one, I didn’t get stretched and the extra 10 minutes all went to my feet, which I don’t really care about. If I wanted foot massage, I would have gotten that instead.
So to recap, I was disappointed and offended by their Tips menu for the customers. To me it’s saying they are not paying their staff enough therefore they want to shift it onto the customers. That’s why the 1 star as a warning for the place to treat their employees well. It might be just perception but if you were to come up with a Tips menu, people’s going wonder why

I’ve been coming here consistently for the past couple of months, 1−2x a week! The massages are phenomenal, staff are extremely friendly and prices are the best. My experiences here have been amazing but today’s experience is the PERFECT EXAMPLE why I love this place. Their customer service is TOP NOTCH.
So, I called earlier to book an appointment with my particular masseuse at 7. When I walked in, the receptionist/​masseuse (I believe her name is Nancy) said I would have to wait extra 10 minutes and because of that Nancy offered me free foot spa session. I told her it was completely okay (because I actually don’t mind waiting and being on my phone to catch up on social media. haha) but she kept insisting so I caved in. Nancy seated me, gave me a bottle of water and smiled. After 10 minutes, she came back and said that Nichol (my masseuse) is running late and I would have to wait an extra 20 minutes. I told her it was not a problem at all… but she offered a free 10 minute foot massage for the inconvenience. I didn’t think it was an inconvenience at all! So after my foot steaming session, she moved me to the foot massage area and massaged my feet. OH MY, it felt incredible!
After that indescribable foot massage, my masseuse Nichol came out and apologized for the wait and brought me into my 1 hour massage. Like always, my massage was relaxing, calming and spectacular.
but before the massage, Nancy came into my room asking for my car keys so she could locate it and put quarters for the meter. because of my wait, she wanted to make sure that my meter wasn’t up so I wouldn’t get a ticket.
that simple small gesture instantly made me smile. they go above and beyond for their customers!
i will never stop coming back! :)

As a licensed massage therapist, I love going to different places to experience different types of massages. I came with my sister also a Lmt and we were both excited. She had a great massage. I did not.
My girl took her elbows and forarms over every boney lanmark I have (a big no no) it was incredibly painful.
Its been almost 2 weeks and I am still in pain. I went in just wanting to experience something different and came out hurting and in pain. I did ask her to lighten up and if she could avoid direct contact with my spine. She did lighten up but continued to go over my spine.
We gave the girls tips (25%) and when we got to the front to pay the woman told us we had to give more because they work hard and showed me her fingers.
Plan on giving (35%) tip when you go.
It was definitely an experience. :-/
