    Although Bua Thai is in a somewhat downmarket strip mall, the interior is perfect -- spare, peaceful, quiet and tastefully decorated. Each treatment room has a futon-style mattress but is otherwise simple. I have had massages from several people here, some a little better than others, but the difference was mostly a matter of personal preference. The desk staff is good about asking what you want -- they give you a body diagram so you can mark the areas where you hurt or want extra work. I recommend at least 90 minutes, so you can get both massaging and stretching. Great lemon grass tea. Reasonably priced, and they have periodic discount specials.

    Been going to Bua Thai for several years now. The massages have always been good, and the facilities are clean and relaxing. Dumitru has been super helpful and responsive, and Tammy provides excellent massages. They book up quickly since there are a lot of regulars like me, so plan ahead!

    I'm not a huge a fan of massages because I'm sensitive to people touching me and i'm ticklish ): But sometimes you just need a good massage. I wanted to try a different type of massage because i've tried a couple and they didn't really do anything for me. I've never had a thai massage before but from what i've read and the reviews it was worth trying. Unlike the other massages I've had, thai massages stretches you which is so nice because stretching is one the only ways I can relieve some tension in my body. They also do a pretty good job of doing an all body massage more so on your legs and arms. But I found that my massage really did relax me and that's amazing because usually after massages.. I'm more tense -_- And they also managed to crack my back which is amazing because that usually doesn't happen. The atmosphere was soothing and peaceful. The room that you're massaged in is kept at a nice temperature and you have private rooms separated by curtains. But the rooms are spacious and clean. The entire place is well organized and clean. Their service is spectacular, they made sure to ask me if I was doing okay and they provide clothes for you change into for the massage. It's not too expensive because I compared it other places in the area and it seems pretty standard. I think for the price is was worth it because I found the experience to be rewarding. So from now on, if I want a massage, I'll make the trip here.

    I'm a massage therapist and come here quite often for their traditional Thai massage. Swedish is nice and soothing, but Thai massage really loosen you up. I especially like the stretching and point work. If you're new to this type of modality be aware that you may be sore for the next few days but it's all worth it.

    Our first time at Bua Thai and my gf and I did the couples massage. One word.. Fabulous! Ok two words.. Incredible! Any tight muscles or sore spots on my body were completely gone by the time the session was complete. Super relaxing atmosphere and friendly, professional staff. I'm giving a special Thanks to 'Cherry' for my fantastic 60 minute Authentic Thai Massage and 'Nina' as well. Well worth the affordable price and we will definitely return👍😁 Thank you Bua Thai!!

    Yes, yes, yes, I had the most fabulous experience at the place Bua Thai Wellness, last week. The softness services, the assertiveness dealing with my painful body was like they had a cristal ball in their mind. The whole atmosphere, decoration, spotless clean, soft aroma in the air, the lighting so dimmed that I thought I was back into my mom’s belly. Relaxing and super comfy. 100% perfect for me! Thank you all of you at the BUA THAI WELLNESS ! See you guys this coming week YEAH! Beatriz

    OMG SO GOOD!! THANK YOU. The place is very very clean. The massage therapist beats every other Thai place and CMT I tried!! Every pressure was ON POINT. FEELING REVIVED. They even warm your feet with hot towels at the start 🥹🥹 Reasonably priced too!!!

    Overall very good. Quiet. Therapists never talk during massages so you can truly relax. Since they don’t keep a therapist log for the appointments you may not get the same therapist again.

    I have been getting Thai massages the past 10 years for my disability. The owner systematically interfered with my massages making it unpleasant and reducing quality. Never again!

    If you want a massage that will work out ever kink or knot in your body, they can do it. The deep tissue massage and stretching they do will be a workout in itself. You will be sore afterwards but your body will feel rejuvenated and limber again. My sports trainer recommended I come to them as they know what there doing compared to other spots.
