Reviews
I patronized this massage parlor for three days in a row during a stay at a nearby hotel. I opted for the 60 min standard massage course on the first two days, and the 90 min option on the third. The 60 minute course is conducted prone, face-down. The 90 minute course included the same massage as the 60 minute course, plus a face-up scalp and shoulders session. The massages were mostly performed through a towel, except above the neck, as seems to be the standard in Japan. Body Fresh appears to specialize in light pressure gentle shiatsu "relaxation-style" massage rather than Thai or deep-tissue. The masseuse on duty at 11:00 was kind and very attentive to my preferences and had nice warm hands. I almost fell asleep. She also had my wet clothes dried during the session, which was a nice bonus. I regret that I didn't get her business card for future reference. Would like to visit again when in town next. I was unable to get immediate walk-in service on my first visit, so making an appointment ahead of time may be a good idea. Also note that Google's hours for this business are correct, and the sign out front which lists 12:00 as the opening time seems to be outdated.
