One of the most relaxing massages ever. As a busy mom, I am really looking for a massage place that delivers consistent service. Regardless of who the therapist is, you are sure that you're going to get that most needed therapy! Price is reasonable, staff are friendly, therapists are consistent, and they ask you if the pressure is just right. I try hard not to fall asleep so I can feel that strokes, but because it's so good I just couldn't help but doze off during the session. I am very happy to have found Shiatsu Tokyo in Los Angeles!

I had the day off due to lower back pain and sciatic nerve pain. The first month I could not sit for more than two mins. I had to stand and walk to avoid the pain. It was horrible. I got muscle relaxers and other medication for the pain which I didn't want to do or take. So, I saw shiatsu Tokyo and gave it a try. My pain before going was a 7/10 and after my massage it was a 2/10...i was able to stretch and lift my foot higher than before with little to no pain. I thought to myself "oh it's only going to stop hurting for a few days and back to hurting again" it's been almost a month and the pain is gone. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Take my boyfriend today!... read full review

Basically it was like being adopted by a Japanese grandma for 90 minutes. She was incredibly strong and I joked to my fiancée before leaving that I expected her to pulverize me into a pulp. Ok she didn't do that, she was very skilled. I will note that the Yelper who complained about her body shaming her for being fat just didn't understand the cultural context. I didn't get my Japanese grandma's name but I'm a little fat at the moment and she commented about needing... read full review
