Really want to thank Maggie. A massage therapist at this location. She is fantastic. I had so much hip pain, I could not walk without limping or having a very odd walk. I was not sure if anyone could help. I did a 90 minute massage with her, and I walked out, no pain. Had the first nights rest without pain in weeks. I know I’ll be back to see her again. Highly recommend this business and Therapist.
Thanks Maggie,care ya soon!

I just got out of a one hour session with maggie and I feel healed!!! I work at a desk all day and my neck and shoulders get very tense so I gave this place a try to release so stress and relax, very pleased with the experience!

This use to be my go to but the last few visits, the massages have not been good.
In fact the last massage I got, the therapist seemed hurried, rough and actually left me with scratches and bruises from her long nails!! Sorry to say but it’s just not a great place anymore as they’ve lost all the good therapist. Don’t think I’ll be back!!

What do you do when you have worked all day, taken pictures for hours at the park before going to the Zarimassage Elite party event of the year in Balboa park? Go get a relaxing massage of course.
Were they open longer than other places? Yes, open until 11 so that made it convenient.
Only $40 for a 1 hour deep tissue massage. Sounds good to me.
I called ahead just to make sure they were open and had openings, since my usual place closes at 10.
I did not have any problems with the person who answered, she was very friendly and polite.
I am not sure if it was the same person at the front desk when I arrived, but the person at the front desk was also very friendly and did not mind answering all of my questions. I had no issues, unlike some of the other ZariMassage reviews.
The spa was easy to find on Mira Mesa Blvd, well lit inside and out. Plenty of parking but it was late at night.
Everyone I talked to there was very friendly and helpful.
I have been to many other massage spas of all styles, prices, etc. Angel massage was just like many other budget massage spas. It is not going to have plush robes, and lime flavored water, but if you want a great massage with no frills, then give it a try. Clean bathrooms and rooms, friendly staff and only $40. You pay up front before the massage, pretty standard for the places that I have been to.
Showers are available so if you have been running around, you can get cleaned up before your massage. They have shower shoes as well which is a nice touch.
The room was well lit, and the table was very comfy but not heated, but it did have a sheet and a blanket/comforter. The temperature in the room was about 78-80 so not cold at all. I don’t remember any music playing and I could hear some muffled talking in another room, but it was very low volume and did not bother me at all.
Typical massage, get undressed to your comfort level, but they use oil so take off your clothes if you don’t want to get oil on them.
I was told that Lucy did firm pressure so I said sure figuring that she could adjust and do less pressure if necessary.
Lucy did a great job. No small talk and no asking about medical conditions, but she did check from time to time to make sure the pressure was ok and it was.
Lucy spent about 45-50 minutes on back, legs, etc while on your stomach. About 10-15 minutes on feet, head, legs while you are on your back. Some light stretching, but not like a Thai massage.
She put a pillow under my ankles while I was on my stomach, that is a nice touch and relieves knee pain.
Before flipping over to my back, she got some hot towels and wiped the oil off, they were pretty hot, but they cooled off quickly.
My massage was an hour or slightly over, no feeling of being rushed even though it ended about 11:10. I did not have the experience that other people mentioned.
They have a suggested tip sign in the room, I had not seen that before, normally it is up front by the cashier. They suggest $15 minimum for a 1 hour $40 massage. I was not pressured to tip and Lucy did not count the money or question me at all. I gave $20 but she did not know that until after I was on my way out.
There are a few touches that are missing or it would be 5 star, but 4 stars is not bad at all.
They do not have a loyalty reward card to get 1 free after 10 or 12, kind of a bummer, and they are far away or I would go more often.

This is our go to for couples massages. We usually do one hour, one male and one female masseuse in the same room. If the person hasn’t massaged us before we will let them know what we like but the receptionist usually asks us before anyway. It’s good pricing for a relaxing massage, I recommend for sure. Remember to always say what you like when you go to any massage place, clients sometimes don’t speak up so their supposed ‘bad service’ could of been avoided. You are paying after all.

Megan 2.0 I went for my second massage within a seven day. And once again it was great that I have mentioned this before if you’re looking for a rug and tug place this place is not for you!! but if you a guy with sore muscles and you looking to get a great massage from a strong woman ?? Megan is the girl asked for by name you Gotta make appointment there’s so many things I was impressed about her one of the biggest ones is how comfortable she was doing her job The only negative is you’re going to feel very sore when she’s done and you’re going to go home drink lots of water and go to bed feeling a lot of aches but I promise you the next day you wake up you’ll have no pain you will feel great!! So if you look for great sports massage this place is for you but if you look for a place to get oil down and jacked off you got to go somewhere else!!!

If I could give this place a -10 star I would. Horrible horrible horrible customer service and service alone. First, I paid for the service before I got it, fine okay. And I thought I was generous with a $10 tip for a massage which they demanded WHEN I PAID BEFORE EVEN GETTING SERVICED.
Ugly front desk girl gave me mad attitude and scoffed at the amount of the tip I was giving and demanded for more. I was immediately annoyed.
Let’s move forward, when the lady came in to do my massage, she kept talking the entire time making it impossible for me relax. I kept telling her she could massage a bit harder but she was basically just touching my body putting little pressure. I left there feeling exactly the same.
The 1 hour massage I paid for was only a 42 minute massaged. Yes I timed it.
I could go on and on. But really??? I felt attacked for not tipping my entire salary…. horrible service. Place should be closed down or get another front rep who isn’t so stingy.

Unfortunately I don’t have an option to give no star. This place should not be in business anymore! Not mention the technician does not speak much english but the attitude were very insulting when you tip less than the amount they were expecting. My technician even tried to grabbed my wallet to take some more, is it rediculous? I have been seeing such technician in other places but here much more aggressive! When you had an hour massage, you just got 43 minutes, plus the technician went out of the room for twice which easily took 7-8 minutes, do you still want to tip? I tipped $8 which was 20% of the deal. Come on! anything wrong? She directly told you that you are so cheap!
Never, ever try this place!

I’m seeing a lot of bad reviews for Angel Massage but I maintain it’s not as bad as people make it sound. There are better spas for sure but this place is reasonably priced and has convenient parking. They have a lot of massage therapist working there and each is a little different. You really can’t base your experience solely on 1 therapist. Try giving a few of them a try and you still have the same experience then simply find another spa. For me personally, I’ve been going there off and on for a few years and I kind of like this place. I always get a relaxing massage. I will say communication is somewhat of a problem since most of them speak Mandarin and struggle with English. However this is not a show stopper. You just need to find a way to communicate and you’ll be just fine.

My boyfriend and I came in for a couple massage. I would like to say that the girl at the front desk does not really dress appropriately. I understand that people do not need to dress a certain way at these places but please, she should have at least covered herself more. She is the first face people see when they walk in and she looked like a mess.
The waiting room looked a little run down in my opinion.
The massage was decent. I was not 100% satisfied though. The people who were giving us our massages were attentive though and I did like that.
I didn’t like that I could hear everything going on outside of the room. The walls must be really thin. I could hear people laughing and talking in the next rooms and in the hallway. I am here to relax and not hear all these sounds.
There is plenty of parking outside so guests don’t have to worry about finding a spot to park.

I normally don’t give reviews, but I feel I needed to after reading some of negative reviews. I have been coming to Angel Massage for nearly 3 years now. The massages have always been fantastic. I usually get at least two massages a month. I have back and neck issues and I always feel a whole lot better after the massage. You can always request the amount of pressure you need or the area you want them to work on. Since I have soreness or issues throughout my body, I normally get a 1 1/2 massage. If I could, I would request for 2 hours!
I have never been pressured to tip more then I offer or treated rude by the staff. I have been to other places which they make you feel bad about the the tip,but not here. Compared to other massage places, this place on the top of my list. Place is clean, massage is fantastic and I leave feeling great!
