This massage parlor is WONDERFUL! My expectations were greatly exceeded! At first I wasn't sure as I thought it would be a fancy place that wouldn't give me the deep tissue massage I needed. However, the massage was deep and relaxing; all my knots were smoothed out and my back and leg pain coaxed away. The service was prompt and everyone was very nice. I am a definite repeat customer.

Graceful Services was not fancy, but what they lacked in atmosphere was more than made up for by an amazingly skilled full body massage. Jenny, the massage therapist was really thorough and removed every stress-induced knot from every part of my part. She- as well as the rest of the staff- was very sweet and attentive. The prie cannot be beat either.I highly recommend Graceful Services.

If you can handle a "back breaking" massage, GS is great! The practitioner will man-handle you no doubt, but the results are fabulous. Expect lasting results after repeat visits... and at about $60/hour, it's even more satisfying.
Pros: extremely nice staff, skilled practitioners, comfortable
Cons: small facility, semi private rooms, no aromatherapy

I am a poor graduate student...not one to easily spend money on massages. But I just had a huge exam and had to get some serious tension out of my back. Earlier in the week, I used a gift certificate at a very expensive and fancy spa on a massage. It was a pleasant experience...dim lighting, nice smelling oils, but I didn't leave with any less tension than I went in with. At graceful services, I got what I needed. Anna kneaded and pummeled my back until the tension was gone. And on top of the best massage I've ever had, she was very friendly and concerned with my comfort.
Pros: Effective, Friendly, Inexpensive

If you are looking for a fancy spa, this is not where you should go. But if you are looking to get a good massage, and feel reenergized afterwards, this is the place to go. The staff is courteous and professional. Only one caveat, if the massage is too hard, speak up!!
Pros: Inexpensive, Long hours
Cons: Little privacy, Not fancy

I liked the fact that they used oil (or was it lotion?) instead of powder to start off with. The massage was as strong as I wanted it to be - I think Randolph would have used more force if I needed it. He took a lot of knots out of my system and I felt glorious, alive and soooo happy after. He kept reminding me to breathe out which is very important to get the best result. I will go back for sure though it is out of my way as they are EXCELLENT!
Pros: very professional, extremely skilled
Cons: walls between beds

To my mind, this gracious salon well deserves its "Best" rating. I have been to spas uptown and downtown, east side and west, and nothing beats Graceful Services for skillfulness, attentiveness and pure bliss - - all at a very reasonable price.
There are cheaper places downtown for those who do not mind mass production treatment in dingy surroundings. And there are more luxurious salons for those who do not mind practitioners more interested in selling creams and lotions than in the welfare of their clients. But none equals this spotless and serene spot for the care and attention given its clients and the effectiveness of its treatments.
Pros: great massages, convenient, prompt service
