What Are People Saying about Taiji...
 pdated - 5/7/2012
Thanks to Lily, I'm a now regular at this location (even earned the Duchess title on the Yelp check-in, lol). Instead of just repeating the same ol' drill, she really pays close attention to my body, and modifies her technique and pressure based on how my body is that day. She also always does full 70 minutes of work on me, not including the time I'm getting ready for the massage. I really hate it when they do that, even though that seems to be the unwritten rule for some places. Since I'm a regular with her now, she gets to understand my body responses so well that as soon as I feel pain, she checks on me right away without me saying anything. I just hope she doesn't back off when I assure her, "it's okay" even if it actually hurts. From my past experiences here, I have become a true believer of "no pain, no gain" when it comes to Taiji massages. The pain, however, does diminish the more I receive the massages.
I will be back as long as Lily works here.
4/28/20121 Check-in HereShaken. Chopped. Punched. Those are all things I experienced while I was getting my "body work-ed" at Taiji.
Tom was my technician and he was absolutely amazing! He did things to my body, that I never knew could safely be done. The pains came and went throughout my 70 minute service, and I won't lie, at times I didn't think I could take anymore, but in the end my muscles felt very relaxed and I didn't feel the tension I felt upon arrival.
If you choose to visit Taiji, keep in mind this is a low key place. For example, there are only curtains separating each massage table so you can hear others getting beat up, you can hear patrons coming and going, and the room is not dimly lit.
Don't forget to check-in on Yelp, as you get a 70 minute session for $48.00!

$48 to cure my rock hard shoulders? YES PLEASE.
When it comes to massages, I say, bring on the pain!
During my first visit, I got assigned to Cindy and I have been requesting for her services ever since. She is quick in locating the tension points of my muscles and isn't shy in applying strong pressure to rub out the knots in my shoulder and back. The facility is no-frills, but it's clean, friendly and relatively easy to get an appointment.
Yes, it hurts like hell. But the feeling of having your body light and jelly-like afterwards? Just incredible :)
I give this place five stars for one simple reason. They are good.
Yesterday, I walked in there 10 minutes late for my 3:30 appointment. Thankfully, this didn't pose a problem. My body was in so much pain from all the running around that I do on a regular basis that I practically collapsed on the massage table.
Anyway, after 30 minutes of kneading, rubbing, and deep tissue manipulation I was completely cured of every kink and knot that made it's home in my body. I didn't realize how good the massage was until after I left. My legs and lower back felt completely brand new. So new, in fact, that I ended up walking over 60 blocks! I walked from W 8th and 6th Ave. down to W 3rd then up to E. 60th and Madison. This may not seem like a big deal to some. But for a cab riding girl like me, this was way out of the ordinary. Needless to say, this is my go to place for serious massage work.
FYI: This is not at all a spa. It's more like a clinic. But the massages are good and well worth the lack of amenities.

Great location, clean, and modern facility. They were running a 4th of July special of 70 minutes for $48, which I see now is the new customer special. Either way, it's a great value. I'd say the massage is strong, but not as painful as Asia Tui-Na's so if you're looking for a beating but don't want to be completely bruised, come here instead.
My masseuse was Cindy, and without my telling her, she caught the knot in my shoulder right away and set about fixing it.
The foot massage at the end (which Tui-Na doesn't do) was heavenly, and the people at the front were extremely friendly and anxious for TaiJi to become better known -- I'm assuming it is a relatively new place. They give you a stamp card at the end -- so it isn't necessary to buy a package of 10 massages in advance. You just go ten times, then you receive a free massage.

Not that this matters, but I'm currently studying for the NY Bar exam and my shoulder muscles are trying to kill me, I think. So, after sitting in the same torturous position for 6 hours, I knew I needed some professional help.
Reading all the great reviews for TaiJi Body Work was what really decided it for me, and they couldn't have been more spot on. I called that day, and got an appointment for 7:30 that night. I showed up 15 mins early, but I was barely getting comfortable in the waiting room when I got called back. The place was immaculate, beautiful wood and a calming scent. I was led into a dimly lit room, de-robed and then the magic began.
My masseuse was Amie, and she had the hands of a god. My shoulders were in painful knots, and she applied the most incredible pressure and worked out all the stress that I was storing. I had no idea what "deep tissue" meant before Amie. I am a convert.
Since it was my first time I got a 70 minute massage for just $50 (used a credit card), and I could not have been happier with my experience. It's conveniently located, great ambiance, and staffed with incredibly trained employees. Not to mention, they have a loyalty card that let's you get your 11th massage free! I've been looking for a massage joint like this since I moved to New York. I will absolutely be back to work out the kinks before this ridiculous test I have to take.

I am a new man.
I called in an hour in a half prior and they scheduled an appointment for both my boyfriend and I at the same time. 30 mins @ $26 per massage. The customer service was impeccable, and I love how I feel right now. It was INCREDIBLY clean. You will really like this place.
Thanks for all the reviews before me- you are what led us to Taiji Body Work.
