Yihan Spa

I’ve been coming here to get massages since moving to nyc three years ago. Tried a few other places here and there but always find myself coming back to Yihan Spa. It’s clean, calm, and relaxing. Even my oura ring tells me I’m relaxed when I’m here. My go to is Wang. He’s the best!! You probably can’t go wrong with anyone here though!

Melody did a GREAT job with my 60 minute Haitang massage. I would recommend for anyone would needs a good reset with relaxation. definitely will be coming back!

Richard was great! The entire experience was phenomenal and very professional. The woman at the front desk was also very friendly and answered all of my questions. First time doing cupping and it was a little uncomfortable in the beginning but then it was fine. I will come back

I did the full body scrub and it was amazing. Nancy did an amazing job as this was my first time experiencing a body scrub. She was attentive and made sure I was comfortable. Complementary shower was included which was also relaxing as well. Highly recommend their services. Will come back again!!

Nancy was amazing! Was sick last week and really needed a recovery massage. Was able to get a same day appt which was great! She got every knot out and truly gave me one of the best massages ever. Also the spa is so beautiful and clean! Staff is all super nice as well. 10/10

Really enjoyed my experience. Immediately upon entering you feel at peace with the nice aromas and calming music. The massage itself felt incredible both during and after. Wang had a firm but soft hand and I will definitely be coming back.

From the warm greeting from Georgia at the receptionist desk to the PHENOMENAL massage from Melody, this massage parlor exceeded my expectations. The spa is extremely clean, organized and smells so good! When you enter, they ask you exactly where you would like to masseuse to concentrate and the pressure you prefer. Georgia was very informative and recommended a combination of Deep tissue and Swedish massage with light stretching. Please listen to her she knows exactly what you need. I feel euphoric post massage. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend.

One of the best massages in NYC. All the staff are extremely talented and professional. From the receptionist to the masseuses, the service and ambiance are all top-notch. If you are ever in the city, be sure to check this spa out. They are very accommodating, kind and honor the full massage time. The spa itself is clean and well-kept. Definitely give this place a visit! One of the few spas where any/all therapists are equally as knowledgeable.

Great massage in a very relaxing space. The staff is always very welcoming and all masseuses do a good job

I tried out Yihan Spa for a back/chest facial and had a wonderful experience! This was more than your typical facial - it included a full back and chest massage (they ask you what areas to focus on and avoid beforehand), a deep scrub, some extractions, and a mask. Afterwards, I was directed to a full shower next door where I could rinse off and even wash my hair. I asked for hard pressure and Emily delivered, releasing a lot of tension in my neck/back. The establishment is easy to find and is on the second floor. I left rejuvenated and bought a 5-session package that won't expire.

I've been to their other location on UES before and previously had a VIP package. After doing a few $55 for 60min massages elsewhere I decided to splurge for a better quality massage. I did a 60min deep tissue massage with Melody with an essential oil add on (not necessary), it was great and she was awesome. I think you can definitely do a regular Swedish and ask for hard pressure instead of paying extra for deep tissue. I recommend bringing cash to tip, so you're tipping for just the service vs tipping on top of the add-ons and on tax. With tip my service came out to $198, you can do cheaper massages elsewhere but you get what you pay for.

I had an amazing experience!! It's my favorite place to visit when I need a good massage!! My skin is sooooo silky soft and I feel so relaxed. The atmosphere is so nice and relaxing I don't even feel like I'm in nyc

Not as hot as some of the other infrared saunas in the city but really nice and clean environment. They provide plenty of towels, robes, and ice cucumber water, and there is a shower.

I had a facial with Emily and she was really amazing! She took her time and focused on giving me a good massage and treatment. I highly recommend!

Ordered on classpass and they were able to accommodate me in. Wang shifu was fantastic

I had a washer facial massage with Nancy and it was the best. I fell asleep, but my face look amazing after.

Yihan is such a cute little spa. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The little waiting room where you fill out the waivers/forms is cute and relaxing, and they offer cucumber water (or some variation). The best feature, in my opinion, is the fire cupping. There aren't many spas in the city that offer fire cupping, and I find that it works better than the air cupping. I absolutely recommend this place. 10/10! I've only had a massage/fire cupping, but I've had friends who swear by the reflexology and other services provided. I'm always so grateful for her for recommending this place to me.

This was my first time getting a full body massage and I had a great experience! Julie was very thorough and spent time relieving knots wherever necessary. I got the hot stone add on and it took me to another level of relaxation. The space was also clean and neat. I look forward to coming back!

Absolutely amazing place. First walked in, felt like a tru oasis in the middle of the city. I'm surprised at the quality of the finishing even for a place in an older building. From the questionnaire in the beginning to the actual treatment itself, it was so nice my girlfriend and I took turns falling asleep. Will definitely be back 10/10

My family was in town for the weekend and brought them here because the massages are always 10/10 and the ambience is always beautiful. They treated my family so well, they couldn't stop talking about the kindness of the front desk gentleman Elam. Milan is always great.

I can't say enough good things about Yihan Spa. The staff here is always so lovely, professional, and accommodating. I was late to my last appointment--completely my fault--but even though they were fully booked, they were super respectful and pleasant about rescheduling me. They really went out of their way to make it easy for me, which I appreciated so much. This place is my go-to for facials. I always come for the European facial, and it's consistently amazing. The estheticians are so knowledgeable and always suggest the best add-ons based on what my skin needs. I especially love the facial gua sha with CBD oil--it's such a great touch. I'm a huge spa person and have tried facials all over Queens and Manhattan, but this one is hands down my top choice. I even recommended it to my sister, and now she's a loyal regular too. If you're looking for a spot that actually cares about its customers and delivers every single time, you need to check out Yihan Spa.

Bella was absolutely amazing! They were so accommodating to me seeing as I ran about 15 minutes late and they still gave me my full massage. It's a very beautiful and calming spa. Fabulous massage and customer service, definitely would recommend!

Emily was amazing!!! Did the deep tissue with hot stones!!! I'll definitely be back :)

I had a very relaxing Swedish massage today and it feels so good! The spa is clean and I had a best massage in my life, will like to continue coming back! Highly recommend!

I dont usually leave bad reviews, i know it hurts the business. But these guys suck. I fell for the high yelp rating, but now im pretty sure a bulk were bots. 1) as someone else pointed out, they will aggressively tip-shame you, its quite shameless. Leaves a bad taste in the mouth when you leave. 2) the massage was really just mid. I did say hard but it just hurt, it was pretty obvious the guy was no trained masseuse. His nails also dug in sometimes, and he kept rubbing my hair up and it hurt. 3) the vip package says 1h 20m on their website and groupon listing but apparently its just 60min and a tea. Sucks if you already bought the groupon, cant change it. 4) There's a randomly added 15$ groupon charge at the end. Skip. There are better places that deserve you money. These guys are just scummy.

Great service! Bella was amazing and I would definitely come back again. The deep tissue massage did not disappoint.

It's a beautiful spa filled with lemongrass aroma the minute you walk in. I got the Thai massage, but unfortunately half way through, my massage therapist was not receptive to my body's limits on her own. Thai massages are very stretch heavy, but at times it felt unsafe as she had a tendency to over stretch my body and kept pushing when my body wasn't ready or warm enough. I eventually had to tell her to stop and guide her, and she was responsive which I was grateful. But I became anxious that I was going to get injured or reactivate an old injury due to the overstretching that I couldn't enjoy the rest of the massage because I had to guide her. Just a heads up if you will be getting a Thai massage. They seem to have a lot of good reviews for other massages so I'd maybe try those instead. The lady at the reception was very lovely, and as was my massage therapist--personality speaking!

Disorganized and impersonal I was in the middle of a massage and the girl doing facials barged in and stopped it. She said I was late and it was time for my facial. I was not late.

Amazing spa - super clean and relaxing! They are always so nice, and do an amazing job. Could not recommend this place more, been coming here for a while as my go to spot

Really loved this space. The interior is so calming. I had a Swedish massage from Amy and she was so attentive and checked in with my on pressure and any problem areas. One of the best massages I've received & highly recommend coming here!

Peter was incredible. I've had a handful of massages here, and they have all been wonderful, but Peter was notably my best yet!

I'm almost reluctant to leave the name of my favorite technician here in case everyone starts booking her and she's no longer available lol but I love this place. It is the only place in New York City I would even fathom going to for massage. Joy has the most magical hands and knows exactly what she's doing when it comes to reflexology as well. I had an amazing hot stone massage. Tina did the cupping afterwards and I felt the difference since I've walked out of there. Very reasonably priced and convenient.

Had Wang for my service and he was great! Very thorough and mindful of pressure. Would come to visit again

I have been here twice now for haitang massage with Wang. Yes, they upsold me on the package deal after my first massage. But it was such an incredible massage I just bought it. Massage two was even better. Wang knows how to target painful areas and adjusts his pressure to your toleration. I really like the cupping and gua sha. But I especially appreciate that he's tailoring the massage to your body's needs--not just doing the same thing for every person. I never thought it could be worth it to pay this much for a massage, but I'm hooked.

Amazing experience with Richard ! I thought he did a great job. Will definitely be back

Nijia Howell Wang was absolutely AMAZING!! I got the 60 min Swedish massage with hot stones and he was very professional and paid attention to the areas I wanted to focus on. I had medium pressure and it was perfect for me! The atmosphere was extremely relaxing and the staff (especially Georgia) was so accommodating and sweet. I would recommend anyone to come here! I can't wait to book my next appointment! I think I found my new go to spa!

I've been here a couple times because of a package and will not be returning. The pros are that it's very clean and the massages themselves are not bad (except for this one experience where someone hit me). However their management team is extremely disorganized and run their operation with the sole goal of squeezing as much money as they can out of you while sacrificing customer satisifaction. As soon as you come in they swarm you and try to get you to upsell. Packages, add ons, jewelry they just pester you and won't take no for an answer Also if you're paying by credit card check the percentages for tip. I usually pay by cash but one time I ran out and when I went to put in a tip in the credit card machine the numbers were WAY inflated. The same time I also used Apple Pay and it went through (could see it on my phone) and the front desk was insistent that it didn't and said I needed to pay again. I told her I didn't want to get double charged and it definitely went through and showed her on my phone and bank account. She just said "ok do you want the receipt" and had the receipt in hand ready for me so I'm confused if there was a receipt why did she say it didn't go through Finally... I booked a later massage (7pm) with a friend and they asked the masseuses to stay later. It was at the end of her shift and she complained that she didn't want to because she lived far away and would miss her bus. Her manager was insistent and my friend and I felt uncomfortable and said we could come back the next day if there was no one available. The manager insisted that we go and as soon as I laid down the masseuse smacked me in the back of the head and complained tirelessly about how she wasn't supposed to be working. We ended the massage early and I complained to the front desk that she had hit me and he was apologetic and said I could not tip her if I wanted to but still had to pay the full price of the massage. I was completely in shock. You might be wondering why I went a couple of times like I mentioned I had a package and they don't do refunds. The owner may also comment and try to defend or say I was never there but I have the credit card statements to back it up and a friend who was there with me to collaborate

The staff here was so friendly. I had a 80-Minute European Facial and my skin feels so refreshed. SuSu was great and an amazing massage from her. Just the peaceful thing I was looking for!

Great energy, professional masseuse really wanted to ensure I was comfortable and happy with level of service

Came here with girlfriend for a couples spa experience of the massage plus facial. Service was amazing! This was my first full body massage + facial experience and it did not disappoint. They were very good and helped me relax and feel comfortable. The pressure points during the massage felt great , especially since I was a little sore from gym. Facial experience was refreshing! The two hours melted away in bliss.... The birch everywhere is a nice relaxing vibe. We had champagne and chocolates after the service! Great touch. Location is easy to find and after the spa, UES has much to offer.

Nancy gave a fantastic massage, never felt so relaxed, will be back, thanks! Been here twice now and never disappoints

It's a really nice place! The environment is great, clean, and peaceful. The massage therapist is really nice! Highly recommended

I've been here many times since I work in the area. I've done facials and massages and all have been truly relaxing experiences an do always leave feeling brand new. The staff is very pleasant and always so helpful and the space is serene and clean. The waiting area has cucumber water and light snacks. Felix at the front desk is a gem and he is very kind. Everything is top notch, I highly recommend.

Bella. Service was great, nice ambiance. Had a great experience, will be back again. Came for a facial.

Just had my first massage here and can say the strong ratings are so justified! The ambience and decor are so relaxing--feels like being in a Luxury tree house. Space was very clean, front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend Nancy--best massage I've ever had. Will definitely be returning!

I came here for a prenatal massage because the reviews were top notch so I hate to be the person to complain - the price was $200, which is about $40 more than what I usually pay for a prenatal massage (with a licensed massage therapist), so I also assumed that based on the price, the massage would be exceptional. I'm incredibly disappointed - I was left more sore than when I came in. I'm not sure if they use licensed massage therapists here.. either way, I imagine based on reviews, the non-prenatal massages are fantastic - just don't go for a prenatal massage here. I also assumed that massage oil would be used, but it was only used on my neck and feet. As for my back, she massaged it with a sheet over it so I essentially received a dry massage which I have never experienced before in any of my prenatal massages. The masseuse couldn't find my knots (but I know I have them because my husband massages me every night and finds the knots just fine), and she would massage bone which was not comfortable. I've gotten better massages for far cheaper (even nail salon massages have been better).

I got the deep tissue massage with hot stones from Max and it helped relieve all of the tension I had in my back and shoulders. Max was very attentive and his pressure was perfect. The spa is very nice they have refreshments in the lobby and they let me take a shower after my session. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing place. Pleasant environment and ask for Milan. He is the best masseur I've had in a decade. Clearly has great training and experience.

Had a really great experience here. Service is really good, they are really accommodating and patient. My masseuse was Lee; his technique was amazing! The atmosphere here is also very calming and therapeutic.

This was an amazing experience, I feel totally refreshed after my massage! We went here after work and would definitely be coming back

I love Yihan Spa! I've been a loyal customer for many years now. I recently moved from New York & made it a point to come here to get a massage in before I left. The staff is incredible - they tend to all your needs and they always make sure you're satisfied with the service. I'd 100% recommend Yihan Spa to anyone who's looking for a local spot in NY!

I celebrated my 46th birthday here. The massage was amazing, I also used the infrared sauna too To complete a perfect morning. the staff was super friendly and helpful. The best start to my birthday.

I highly recommend Yihan Spa for a lovely wonderful massage. The space is very relaxing and beautiful and the staff are very professional and warm.

The massage was excellent and so was the massage! I had Joy and she was wonderful. Do recommend!

Super friendly clean and calming they always have last minute availability! I bought a package for 5 and it doesn't expire they also have a sauna that comes with a robe and slippers.

I had the most incredible experience at Yihan Spa! I had a 60 minute massage with Lucas and it was beyond amazing!! highly recommend this beautiful spa!

clean and relaxing! Got the 60min deep tissue massage and had a great experience here!
