Came in on a whim before a red eye light. Best decision I’ve made all week. I can honestly say that MIA provided the best massage I think I’ve ever had. Extraordinarily gifted! Next time I am in town, this will be the first place I come to. It’s relaxing and the person at the front was wonderful as well. Thank you!read more

My wife and I got a couples massage. We opted for the "4 Hand" Swedish massage for both of us. The hour seems more like 4 hours and you are thoroughly worked over - someone on your lower half and someone above the waist the whole hour. Just amazing! We walked out like limp noodles and would do it again in a heartbeat. Definitely recommend!read more

I love this place and the massage was so good! Got in the at last minute for an hour Swedish massage with therapist Amanda and she was great, she absolutely knows how to read the body and I can tell she knows what she's doing. The pressure was perfect and she communicated and checked in with me to make sure it was good during the massage. The front desk was very nice and helpful as well. Absolutely loved my massage here and definitely recommend... I will be back for more!read more

Walked in for a 90 min combo, they took me in right away and I was led to a dim and quiet room. Once we established the pressure I was able to take, the massage was wonderful. It’s a perfect blend of eastern and western styles. I was really tight and she really paid attention to those areas without me having to prompt her. She just felt it in my body. Loved my massage and im still relaxed hours later. Thank you!read more

I had an incredible experience at Happy Head Massage! The atmosphere was calming and relaxing from the moment I walked in. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure I was comfortable throughout the entire session. The massage itself was phenomenal. The therapist was highly skilled and listened to my needs before customizing the massage to fit my specific requests. I left feeling rejuvenated and refreshed, and I couldn't wait to schedule my next appointment. The prices are also very reasonable for the high-quality service that is provided. Overall, I highly recommend Happy Head Massage to anyone looking for a top-notch massage experience. It definitely exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be a returning customer in the near future!read more

This place is amazing! My sciatic nerve was inflamed and was in severe need of a massage. I did my research and booked immediately! I had the Asian fusion and it really kept the promise that you would walk out feeling like a new person! Thank you so much for the most amazing stretch and massage combined. I've never experienced a massage like this in my life and would def put this on the top of my to do list when in San Diego again.read more

The woman who answered the phone was polite and very professional. They were able to fit me in last minute/day of, and in no way made me feel like it was an inconvenience. Everything was clean and well maintained. The massage I got was in their main room, which was totally fine. Honestly, the beds were farther apart than tables at a restaurant, so I felt very safe. The masseuse kept her mask on the whole time and even though it was a 50 minute massage it felt so much longer.read more

Very nice place. I go to a similar joint in my home state so it was wonderful to find this one while on vaca. The guy who messaged me was so strong, but yet gentle. I booked online which was extremely convenient. The common room was a little noisy, they didn’t shut the door where they fill the buckets and such. But it was a great experience.read more

Came in to try their $39 1 hour full body and foot massage. It was the best massage I had ever received at any price. I booked a 1 hour deep tissue massage for the next day and it was even better. Best prices I have ever seen at a massage studio. Excellent customer service on the phone at booking and in person from when I arrived until I left. CLEAN! and relaxing, and perfect. I’ll be back.read more

This place is great! Every trip to San Diego Coco and I make sure to visit for some extra r&r. They are always accommodating and we love the fact that during reflexology or massage they put a premium on creating a quiet environment. Today we received exceptional service from Charlene who not only fit us in at the last minute but also adjusted our appointment time since we were running late. Highly recommend!read more

WOW! AMAZING experience in downtown San Diego. Stopped in as a Walk in and we were accommodated immediately. All staff extremely professional and masseuses were in uniform- a first for me. Luxurious ambience (see photos) and both of our massages were excellent. Ambience is extremely important to me for a massage, and this business owner has put tremendous thought into this, as evidenced by hypnotic soundtrack (soooo relaxing!) And sophisticated decor. There is even complimentary wine in the front lobby. Prices are very reasonable. We paid $58 for a 90 minute clothed massage, that included whole bode massage. The beds were very comfortable and there was no chatting in foreign languages here, interrupting relaxation- which happens at many foot massase places! I was so impressed. Bravo!!read more

Fantastic experience! I was very satisfied. I have neck and back stress from my desk job that it really helped. I had John who hit all the spots with the perfect pressure. I had a 90 minute deep tissue. I like it deep! I loved the head and foot massage. Cash only tip, give it directly to your therapist after. There is an ATM on site. My only feedback is I prefer the attached headrest to the hole in the table they had. The pressure gets uncomfortable on my throat. The staff was friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back since the stress never ends!read more

So I was looking for a good massage for a good price and boy did Happy feet meet my needs. I made my appt online as recommended per other reviews. I paid using my credit card but stopped at the ATM to get some cash for a tip (also as recommended) Only thing was I didn't have time to break the $20. Once I arrived the Receptionist checked me in and went over the services that they offer in case I decided to try something else besides the Deep Tissue Massage I booked for. I thanked her and told her that the Deep Tissue massage would be good enough for me. She then explained to me the process of how she would be taking me into a private room for My Deep tissue Massage. As she opened the door to the main room There was about 10 massage chairs in a big open room with 2 of them being occupied by customers who were getting there $39 Happy Massage (Which I heard is awesome, but only 30 mins). The receptionist then explained to me that the masseuse would be joining me in my room after I undressed then lay under the 1st sheet on the massage table The Receptionist will offer to break any bills for change to tip your masseuse after your massage your Masseuse will greet you at the front desk with a glass of water, (this is when you tip). The rooms were very clean and the ambience was peaceful, There was soft listening music playing throughout the building with the dim lighting I found it to be very tranquil. My Masseuse came in and proceeded to move my arms above my head and then started in on my shoulders. The massage was a deep tissue massage that was 1 hour long it was worth every darn cent. I'll be back there for another massage before my 7 for 7 offer expires. (get $7 off your next full body massage within 7 days of your 1st visit.read more

Best massage I have ever had, and I've been getting them for the last 15 years from various places. I had sciatic pains ever since the birth of my son last year and after my Swedish/Thai combo I walked out like a new woman. It was firm yet relaxing and I could not have been happier with the massage therapist. He always asked how I was doing and if the pressure was ok. It always was since he was already so intuitive as to what my ailed body need, but was great that he still asked. Would give 6 stars if I could!!read more
