GREAT SHOPPING BREAK

by rosto

Ocean Waves has always been on my menu when I go shopping or to the movies. I love the flexibility of being able to get a short or long massage. I also tried the Oxygen recently for a headache and believe it or not , it worked!! I love them!!

• Pros: massages by the minute or hour, service, relaxing atmosphere,kind people
• Cons: very small but I heard they are moving to a more spacious location in the Mall

Better than large spas

by rose23

I have been a customer for 5 years and I find that they get better and better.It seems they are constantly trying to improve. Many Spa's I've gone to do not offer the style of massage which they offer since these are therapists trained specifically for massage and not esthetics. Their training is very different. I still love going to a large Spa but if looking for a good massage this is the place to go. I also recommend the couples massage. The room is beautiful. During the week I go during my lunch break for a quick chair and that works great. By the way they are cheaper than the people in the center of the Mall and here you enjoy privacy.

• Pros: excellent quality for price
• Cons: none

FABULOUS!!!!!!

by Lucy2

In my opinion, Ocean Waves is the best of the best. Their staff is highly professional, respectful and very personal. Atmosphere is serene, very inviting, presonalized, etc, etc. Check out Niki, she is from Thailand . She is sharp, perceptive and knows exactly how to personalize her services to meet your needs. Tanya is awesome as well. Don't even bother checking out other places, you will be welcomed with open arms the minute you walk into Ocean Waves.

• Pros: Friendly staff, personalized services, great atmosphere
• Cons: None

A great escape in Southdale

by Brandig

Having been to Thailand, I've wanted to replicate the awesome massage I had there. I found it at Ocean Waves. Nikki and the other therapists are great. They know how to manipulate you! I feel very welcome at Ocean Waves; the staff are very friendly.

To relax, I'd prefer to get away from the hustle of consumer life, but i'll go to the Mall for Ocean Waves. For shoppers, it is a great find within Southdale.

• Pros: Great Thai massage in MN
• Cons: If you have to go to a mall to get it

Excellent massage & value

by ramapeter

I love this place! It's convenient, has great therapists and great prices. I came into Southdale the other day for the movies and Cheesecake Factory and while going down the escalator saw Ocean Waves. Since I had some time on my hands I went in for a chair massage and liked it so much that I had to book for a full hour which made me miss my movie but it was more than worth it. I was lucky they had still a therapist available and the staff really helped to coordinate my last minute decision. The therapist really made my back so much better and I came out feeling like jello. The room was beautiful and had all these fake candles which made it very relaxing. It reminded me of a Spa I went in Thailand so it took me in a virtual travel. The sound was excellent and I was cradled to sleep. I have gone twice since that day and have had excellent service and always great therapists. You must try their Thai Yoga massage as well. It really loosens you up.

When going use the parking lot next to the restaurants.They are just down the escalator between PF Changs and Cheesecake.

• Pros: price and quality
• Cons: for me there were none

Try the Thai massage

by kbbbdb

This was my first visit to the spa...the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful ( I asked about the thai massage and it was explained in great detail) when I originally called to set up my appointment for my massage. I was little hesitant about trying the thai massage, so I went ahead with deep tissue massage. However, the staff at the spa arranged it so at the end of my deep tissue massage, there would be enough time for Nikki to give me a little "introduction" to Thai massage! I am so thankful that I had this opportunity and now know that my next massge will be the Thai massage with Nikki. I'd like to thank the guy at the front desk today (and I do apologize cuz I don't remember your first name) who made sure I was able to get my 60 minute massage in today. The customer service provided was outstanding.

• Pros: friendly staff, the atmosphere
• Cons: I didn't schedule a thai massage for this visit

Great reflexology and deep tissue massages!

by JulieMcMerty01

I am very happy with the foot reflexology treatments and deep tissue massages I have experienced at the Ocean Waves Massage and 02 Lounge. Since moving to the Twin Cities I have had tried several reflexologists and none compare to the reflexologist that gave me my last two foot treatments at Ocean Waves. He did an excellent job massaging my feet and with his expertise finding the needy trigger points in my feet.

The deep tissue massages I received were also excellent. I highly recommend Ocean Waves Massage and o2 Lounge! I also appreciate the convenient parking and opportunity to shop at the Southdale Shopping Center before and after my massages and foot reflexology treatments.

• Pros: Polite, professional staff.
• Cons: The ladie's room is outside the space.

Great value massage

by Nick01

Great massage therapists. I decided to upgrade and did as well a Thai massage. My back felt great after the treatment. I also recommend the Sound Wave table with a foot or hand massage, it totally relaxed me. The massage rooms are very comfortable.

This is a great place to go and add a restaurant and a movie.

• Pros: near to movie theatre and restaurants

I love Ocean Waves. Try them and you will get hooked, seriously hooked. The people that work there have great attituces, and are very professional

Where do I start,...I never used to like messages but my wife talked me into a chair message one day. Now I am hooked and average a message a month.

Go there anytime you are at Southdale, I do.
