Dream Massage

Sigh. I have no words. Just know your tip is EXPECTED regardless of the massage being good or bad. There is a reminder in each room in case you forget.

Prior to my husband and I getting a massage, we read the reviews. We still went ahead and gave this place the benefit of the doubt. After we got our massage, the first words that came out of my mouth were "the reviews were to the T (true)". We were asked to pay upfront, I was given the receptionist as my masseuse. She kept answering phones & also kept stepping out to help customers. My husband and I confronted her and she offered to give me an extra 5 minutes. Once my husbands time was up, my masseuse said, "okay your time is up, thank you" that was when I confronted her again and said, "ummm.... no, it's not" the odd thing about it all was that my husbands masseuse was still massaging him when my masseuse was telling me that my time was up. How is that, right? We were both so unhappy with our service that I told my husband that we were NOT tipping. We 99.9 % of the time tip, but I am against crappy service and also people that take advantage! Therefore, I told my husband that we were going To walk out since we had already paid for our service.As we were walking out, they said, "Tip, Tip?" And my husband said, "maybe next time". The masseuse has the nerve to tell him that she works off of tips. Like yeah, right and if it is true, then, she would have a great law suit towards her employer.Oh, and by the way, the towels smelled like cigarettes & I saw my masseuse or I should say receptionist put back the towel she used on me back into the steamer. I'm assuming that way she can re use it one someone else. This place is a joke! Don't waste your time and money.

I am leaving this review, because it's important for people to know what they are getting into. I scheduled a one hour deep tissue massage that cost $60 which is a normal rate. They make you pay for the massage before you receive your massage which is not uncommon practice. I normally straight off the bat leave a 10 dollars tip for the person, and give additional cash after my massage is done depending how good the massage was. My experience was less they desirable for a couple reasons. The first was that it was not a deep tissue massage in any way. The masseuse did not apply even half the pressure that any other masseuse I have ever had. The OIL was 3x more then any person would ever need to get a massage... crazy amounts! I would have been able to slide on asphalt like it was a Slip and Slide. The only reason I don't give this a one star is because the masseuse was able to locate one of the areas that I was having tightness and did a so-so job on that area. My last, but not least complaint (and majority reason I'm leaving this review), is after the massage was over and I was walking to the lobby to leave, the lady had my receipt on the counter, and said something to the effect of, "ten dollars" and pointed at my receipt. I was confused about what she was saying/asking and to sum up a confusing conversation, she wanted me to add an additional $10 to the receipt/her tip. I was so taken aback by this I didn't know what to say.. except no. I normally would have given up to $20 in tip for a great massage, but for a what I received $10 dollars was fitting. Do not recommend this place and I will never go back again. Hopefully this saves someone from having a horrible experience.

I have to drop 2 stars.. my regular masseuse is gone! 2 good ones there that I know of for some reason, left at the same time.Massage is an integral part of my life.So, we went anyways to try with newer staff.Not the same.My gal was amazing at what she does. My back knots were screaming in need. She was deliberate and strong.However, when she came into the room, first red flag was that she exclaimed that she had forgetten her phone. Oh.. no. No phone, please! I said nothing and just closed my eyes, trying to relax. I was praying that for 60 min, she could leave the phone alone.Music came on her phone and then she began massaging my neck one handed, other hand texting! Ugh!Then on the table, it would vibrate. Then she went to check/ text from it again later, it fell off its post and expletives could be heard from her as she was massaging my back.I still said nothing but I wanted to tell her how much more money she could make if she could just turn her phone off. The 'salon' has a music system but she explained that she does not bother with it.Still tipped but inclined now to find a new place.Disappointing.

We were a bit skeptical to trying this place due to the reviews and the person Jimmy not available, but my husband went and I believe the person named Alyssa helped him. He said his neck was in pain from our hospital stay recently. I will try to get over and try this same person for a prenatal massage hopefully soon. He said the massage really helped his neck!! Thank you!

The massage itself was ok. It wasn't as good as the nicer places but i guess you get what you pay for. It was a little hard at first but she eased up after I asked her to. She also took a phone call in the middle of the massage. I'm not mad, I understand it could have been a family emergency. I heard a woman talking loudly. Sounded heated. Anyway, there was a mid week special for an hour massage. I chose and paid for that but only got 45 minutes. Exactly 45. Not 46 or 47, or anything closer to an hour, but 45 min on the dot. I didn't think that was cool. I thought it might have been a misunderstanding but when the massage was over she asked for payment by pointing to the sign that says one hour with the price on it. Oh well. She was nice and I did enjoy it.

I was not happy with the service. I asked for a 30 min foot massage for 2 people and they took us to a room with tables, I told them it was supposed to be a foot massage and they took us to a couch type area. My friend only got a half massage, the lady left for a long time and didn't do a great job. Mine was ok. I think I was over charged also. I paid $80 for 2 people 30 min foot massage. I would have said something but their English wasn't good and I was already late for a movie. So I just left but I'm miffed that I paid that much and it wasn't that great.

The place is horrible. The worker tried to cut my hour massage down to 30 minutes because she didn't have enough workers and take the full price but luckily we were able to negotiate down to the 30 minutes price. I gave her a tip and she expressed to give her a bigger tip while I still wanted to stay for an hour massage but I couldn't. She yelled at me to get out!! I am never going back!

Do not go here. Worst service and rude people. Wasn't satisfied with the work and the masseuse started yelling at me for tip. Never going back again

Shocked to see this when I looked up the address! Not a reputable massage place but then again what place in Bakersfield is????
