Pranee - Thai Massage Spa

"After a very long week of physical and emotional heavy lifting, I reached the end of my capacity but not the end of my task. As a desperate measure, I searched maps for the nearest massage with good reviews, and fortune smiled on me when I found this amazing Thai massage place just around the corner from my loved one's apartment It was already evening, but using their easy online booking, I was able to get an appointment for a couple of hours later. It was a few dollars more for an after 8:pm appointment but not too much considering the ask. I arrived at a clean, well-appointed lobby and was greeted by Luna. She gave me water and did a preliminary consultation. She had me circle areas of particular discomfort and sign a standard release. Then Luna led me to one of the private rooms. Luna was very competent and confident at addressing my issues. She was a wonderful listener with her ears, hands, and intuition and got right to the root of my pain. I have experienced Thai massage in many places by various practitioners, and comparatively, Luna was great. Of course, it was very intense, but I communicated and Luna adjusted when it was more that I could bear. Luna, who studied Muay Thai and sometimes works on athletes, released, readjusted, and stretched just about my whole body in a 90-minute session. After I dressed, she gave me hot ginger tea. Restored, re-energized, and feeling physically like I was 20 years younger, I was able to complete the task efficiently and with serenity."

"Very weak/lame massage. It was a 'massage' but not deep tissue by any means. I'd call it a very poorly-executed Swedish. For $210 for 90 minutes, it ought to have been at least average. This is roughly twice the price of lower-priced massages in Manhattan and did not reflect it. It really seemed like the masseuse didn't know what she was doing or had learned from Youtube. There was little to no use of actual fingers/thumbs to 'massage' muscles, just a lot of pressing as hard as she could with her elbow. My lower back/shoulders don't feel more relaxed after leaving. I think what best illustrates the poor execution was how she pulled on the toes. There was no finesse, just crude yanking. It was not only an extravagant waste of money, I actually feel upset that I wasted time doing this, I would've felt more relaxed just going for a run. I use massages to prepare for large athletic endeavors coming up and I'm going to have to get a second massage somewhere else. I had a really bad time here"

"Came here after a few days of dealing with jet lag and recovering from illness, and could not recommend this place highly enough! The staff are all so welcoming, sweet, and accommodating, the ambience is so soothing and relaxing, and the massage service instantly rejuvenates and allows you to forget all your stress and worries. The prices are also very reasonable. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!"

"This is my first time here and my first experience with a Thai massage in NY. It's been an incredible experience, especially after a long flight. The facilities and staff are top-notch, providing the best service possible. A huge thank you to Luna, my spa therapist, who made this relaxation session after a long journey absolutely amazing!"
