The massages at this branch are very good. Four of the five people in the group thought they were great. The welcome dessert was ginger tea and rice cakes, which was OK. You will also take a shower before the massage. The shampoo, shower gel and hand soap will be scented with essential oils of your choice. I think it is very considerate. In addition, the masseur "Wang Jinmei" who was recommended to me is a Chinese sister. She didn't slack off at all for two hours, and the force points were accurate and moderate. Her skills were perfect. Highly recommended!
