Qi Gong Tui Na harnesses life energy to alleviate pain, stress and depression. I was skeptical when I went into the session but I soon became a believer. After an hour my back pain was gone. I felt vibrantly alive and refreshed, full of energy. I never felt so good in my life. I now recommend Qi Gong to all my friends and business associates. There is nothing like it!
Pros: Effective therapy, calm ambiance, very friendly

Been to a few places and haven't found one that really give you a good deep tissue... This is the only place where the ladies are actually working hard to relax your body - a great value considering the relatively low price. Definitely should give it a try.
Pros: Inexpensive, Excellent results, Casual

Went for body/foot massage (2 hrs)
The massage beds are heated. The masseur gave the massage then concentrated on my problem areas. He got on the table w/me a couple of times & stretched out my legs/arms
Oils are used & hot towels to wash you off with but they don't dry you off immediately so you become cold quite quickly.
The foot massage - 1 foot is wrapped in hot towels while the other foot is worked on (shins/calves are not forgotten here). My foot massage had me falling asleep - fantastic!
Both massages were hard (you are asked if you want a hard or soft massage) but not painful.
Other patrons need to realize that this is a quiet, relaxing atmosphere & to keep their voices down as it disturbs other patrons.
I would recommend this place to others & will be coming again when I visit NYC
Pros: inexpensive, clean, experienced staff
Cons: other patrons loud, small, a little cold

The massage was not as great as I expected. For the first 15 minutes, I was massaged with a towel over my body, and since the towel was not very soft, it took away from the relaxation. The remainder of the time, I felt over exposed bc the masseus was not very professional about the way he covered me up. At one point he took the entire towel off and my bottom was completely exposed. I think this place is ok if you want a decent massage. But if you want the "spa" atmosphere & professionalism, I suggest you go somewhere else.

I've gone here several times and have always received a nice strong (sometimes a little too strong!) massage from the female therapists. Once I got stuck with a guy and had a bad experience (timid massage and too chatty!).
The decor leaves much to be desired (you can usually hear other customers grunting through their vigorous treatments).
I haven't found a better place for the money so I still go there when I'm stressed but request a female therapist. It's always a good idea to call ahead to make a reservation!
Pros: value, stress relief
Cons: need to call in adv., surprised by the guy

Graceful Services is the best. When you leave you feel as if you are walking on a cloud. I felt a little uncomfortable having a male give me a massage, but I just relaxed and let him go to work. Boy did he go to work! The only thing I don't particularly care for is when the person next to you decides to pull their curtain open, yours opens a little and they can look in at you. Otherwise I have no complaints.
Pros: Relaxing, Friendly, Easy to make appts.

The massage at Graceful services is definitely the best I've ever gotten anywhere. The service was professional and on time and not to mention my back felt like a million bucks after the treatment. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who just want quality massage at a reasonable price.
Pros: on time, massage, inexpensive

I have been to many massage therapists. At Graceful Services I was treated to the best massages ever! My massages were just the way I like them, very effective and as strong as I requested. I am a small person, but I enjoy a good amount of pressure. I felt my neck and shoulder "knots" being released, and a day or two later, even more relief. I found the place to be clean and very professional, and now when I visit NYC I always try to include a visit to Graceful Services.
Pros: great value, good location, friendly

Don't get me wrong - I actually didn't expect much considering it was "cheap"... but...
I don't know... maybe it was the masseuse - I did go late... regardless... I know that the prices are lower than other masseuse (1 reason) b/c you have no privacy(just curtains separting the tables), but who wants to hear other clients grunt.. plus no matter how many times i asked the masseuse to increase the pressure - didn't want to /couldn't accomodate me ... been to less classy joint for less money - where massages were much better. Might give them one more chance with a different masseuse.
Pros: cheaper
Cons: no privacy

It'll be a good massage if you are strong enough to withstand the incredible pressure. I am a fairly small person and thought the pressure was too much. While I asked the practitioner to lighten up a bit (and she did), she said that's the way the massages are and that I would get used to it. I didn't feel relaxed afterwards cause I was too tense for fear of getting crushed. But I'll go back to try the foot massage though.
