Alibaba Foot Spa - Rosemead, California

Suuuuper cheap massage that is hella casual and relaxing.

I got in at $30 for an hour, then tipped $15 for a total of $45. Highly recommend. There’s not much privacy and heads up it can get loud with people talking back and forth but that’s part of why the price is so good haha 🤷‍♂️

Annie and Lucy are awesome if you’re looking to relax, and if you’re looking for a deeper, stronger massage ask for any of the guys. Also most staff only speak Chinese. Walk in was ok but I would call in advance.

One of the guys had some myofacial trigger point release techniques that helped ease up some of my old workout injuries and deficiencies. Really interesting though I wasn’t able to understand what he was doing. For example, I told him about tightness from chronic shoulder instability and he pulled and massaged firmly my left ring and pinky fingers, having me lift my right arm and some chain of fascia was activated that provided release in my right trapezius.

Heads up: be vocal and say YES or NO to what you want or don’t want. I declined a lot of strong above the head movement with my arm because I have a previous history of dislocation and the masseuses will go ahead and move your body unless you speak up. Though my auntie LOVED this part! So to each their own.

Good place for a very affordable massage. The ladies here work very hard. Not the fanciest place but gets the job done if you got some knots to work out.

I always ask for Lucy, Great price and quality. If you tip less than $10 don't go. If you don't like the masseuse talking while massaging you, don't go. The masseuse works hard and they deserve some good tips to compensate for the low price. Their English is not good. They generally do full body massages for the price of foot massage.

If I could give this place a 0 stars, I definitely would. I have never woken up so sore in my life. . . I came in for a $15 foot massage for 1 hour. They ended up doing my entire body, and I asked them if it was part of the $15 foot massage and they agreed. The lady I got was massaging me incredibly hard; it was so painful.

She didn’t even complete the hour. It was like 50 minutes long. Throughout the painful process, two workers began to argue over who was going to massage my sister. She waited extra 20 minutes until they were done arguing. It was very unprofessional on their part.

At the end, when I was going to pay, the lady said that next time it was going to be $25 and not $15 as advertised. I gave her my card to charge the $15 and she aggressively said “$15 for the massage, and how much tip you gonna give me?” It was really rude. I told her that a tip is given by heart, and that she shouldn’t ask for it. She kept demanding it, so I decided that I wasn’t going to give her tip in cash after all. She called another worker over, and that worker demanded the tip as well. I told her that I wasn’t going to give a tip, especially because of how rude they had been about it, and because of the painful rubbing, and the arguments they had. I told her that in America, I have that freedom to decide whether I was going to leave a tip or not. And the lady said in a sarcastic manner, “yeah, yeah. It’s America, you have freedom, you have freedom!” And I just gave them the money in cash, and they walked away very angrily.

They declined to give me a receipt, even though I saw them handing receipts to the rest of the customers.

NEVER COMING BACK. Super unprofessional. . .

Full body massage was Very painful and had to tell them twice to lighten up and still just talked to each other with gossip instead of focusing on the clients needs. Paid and tipped them 15% and they chased me out the door demanding more tip money. Very bad for business. My first time here and my last. Never again!!!

This was my first time here and although massage average the owner and workers talked aming each other the whole time i was there. The music was soothing if only they would stop talking. I paid 30. For the foot massage and was disappointed because it was very basic. The man in front forced me to pay the 10.00. I told him i will not come again. I am very disaapointed and will discourage anyone from coming.

So this is one of dozens of places in the area offering budget "foot massages" that are actually full body. They're always a variation on a theme: large rooms with a series of reclining chairs that act as massage tables. They do have private rooms but I've never felt the need to get one because this is hands-down the best experience I've had at a joint like this, and ranks among the best ever including even much pricier places. Their asking price is $20 but I think, like me, you'll be compelled to give double that once they're through with you. Definitely recommend!

Overall, it's a good place for a massage. Closer to where I live, but the ladies never looked satisfied with tips I give; 30% and 50% didn't look happy
